Forspoken features tons of magic spells and combat abilities infused with the parkour movement of Frey, the game’s protagonist. One unique aspect of the game is how it adds a living bracelet called Cuff to deliver critical information to the players. It is not merely for plot exposition and one can even use it to counter enemies in battle.
Cuff is a valuable tool to parry or counter an incoming attack. Players can press the triangle button to counter, but when pressed at the right time, the encounter can even inflict a return attack. This will even help Frey regain her health.
Forspoken is an open-world RPG at heart and features a variety of enemies to face and locations to visit. Frey can also be decked out with many magical parkour abilities and spells. The enemy variety encourages you to mix and match these spells to win the battle.
You can use Zip to dodge enemy attacks in Forspoken. Combining it with other abilities like Rush can help you get out of harm's way with ease.
There will be times when you won't have an option but to face enemy attacks head-on. This is the ideal time to use the Cuff counter mechanic.
The best way to trigger a Cuff counter is to press the triangle right before a foe’s attack lands on Frey. Executing this gives you much-needed leverage over the enemy. You can either choose to dodge away after this move or continue to attack aggressively. You can even regain a bit of your health.
The precision counter is another technique to parry the attacks effectively. This is different than the cuff counter. This requires even more precise timing and judgment. You will be shown a brief tutorial about this when fighting the Recreant Knight. This is the best battle to practice the timing of this move.
