About Guarding
Official game text and verified values are shown; unavailable values are not guessed.
DescriptionVerified
Use an armament in your left hand or both hands to guard against incoming attacks.
Guarding is especially effective when done with a shield.
Guarding consumes stamina.
If your stamina runs out, your stance will be broken.
The PlayStation and Xbox buttons below use the standard controller layout. If you changed the controls, use your assigned buttons. On PC with keyboard and mouse, open Main Menu → System → Key Settings → Keyboard/Mouse and check the bindings for the actions described below; do not assume controller labels are keyboard keys.
With a shield in your left hand or a weapon held in both hands, hold Guard (left-hand armament action): PlayStation L1; Xbox LB. Blocking uses stamina; if it runs out, your stance can break. This is different from the Skill action used for a parry.
