How To Get The Golden Parry Ash Of War in Elden Ring

We all know that Ashes Of War is a new idea presented in Elden Ring. This allows you to change a weapon's unique ability and use a different ability to make weapons work better with your build.

But you should know that some weapons have special abilities and Ash of War cannot replace these abilities. Ashes of War is used to develop a technique that existed in previous Souls games, and no technique is greater than parrying. Parries are made using smaller or medium shields and can leave unsuspecting enemies open to massive counterattacks. Below we explain more about this topic so continue reading.

How To Get The Golden Parry Ash Of War in Elden Ring

The Golden Parry Ash of War enhances compatible shields by granting them a unique extended parry functionality. 

Acquisition:

Outwall Phantom Tree Site of Grace: This location serves as the starting point.

Navigation: Proceed north from the aforementioned Site of Grace. You will encounter enemies along the path. You can choose to engage them, utilize your spectral steed Torrent to bypass them, or simply avoid combat altogether.

Golden Seed Identification: Locate a smaller golden tree with a Golden Seed nestled at its base. Collect this valuable item.

Ascent and Elimination: Ascend the subsequent set of stairs, where you may encounter weak enemy soldiers. You can eliminate these foes or simply evade them.

Scarab Beetle Location: As you progress up the stairs, navigate towards the left side. Look for a platform area situated higher up. You might need to make a jump to access this platform. Here, you will find a scarab beetle enemy.

Ash of War Retrieval: Eliminate the scarab beetle to claim the coveted Ash of War: Golden Parry.

Utilization:

Shield Compatibility: It's important to note that the Golden Parry Ash of War can only be equipped on small and medium-sized shields that already possess the inherent ability to parry attacks.

Parrying Mechanic: The core functionality of the Ash of War remains similar to a standard close-range parry.

Enhanced Parry Range: The true value of this Ash of War lies in its extension of the parry range through a projected golden light. This allows for safer parries from a greater distance.

Enemy Vulnerability: A successful parry with the Golden Parry Ash of War will not only deflect the enemy's attack but also leave them momentarily stunned, creating an opening for a critical counterattack. This applies to both close-range and extended-range parries.

Precise Timing Remains Crucial: While the extended range offers some leniency, mastering the timing of your parries is still essential for effective utilization of this Ash of War.

By incorporating the Golden Parry Ash of War into your arsenal, shield-wielding Elden Ring players gain a powerful defensive option that can be leveraged to punish enemy attacks with devastating counter-offensives.
