Godfall: Complete Combat Guide
Godfall is a kind-of futuristic, sort-of fantasy-styled looter hack-and-slash that puts you in the shoes of Orin, a near-godlike being on a quest to stop his brother from taking that final step into actual Godhood. There’s a lot of looting, a lot of killing, and a lot of systems locked behind a lot of jargon and combat.

Before you can go about killing everything that moves, you should probably try and stay alive. Thankfully, Godfall has quite the defensive toolkit for you to mess around with. If you want to stay healthy, there are more than enough systems in place to make you practically unkillable.
The easiest to nail is the simple block. Blocking negates any damage you would have taken had you not been blocking. It really is that simple.

If you want to get fancy with your blocking, then you can instead opt to parry enemies. Parrying is like blocking, only objectively better in just about every situation. Instead of tanking a hit, you stagger the attacking enemy and can follow up with your own attacks and takedowns.
This is especially handy when fighting ranged opponents, as you will reflect any projectile at the sender, stunning them and dealing high damage.
