These attacks are unblockable - you can't just hold L1/LB to guard and expect the damage to be mitigated (at the cost of some Posture) like it would be for a normal one.

Sekiro Perilous Attack symbols and how to counter unblockable attacksįrom pretty early on in the game, you'll be introduced to enemies that use Perilous Attacks. That, combined with the fact that standard attacks - blocked or otherwise - deal some Posture damage too, is why Sekiro is about aggression as much as it's about caution. Remember that the tougher enemies - bosses in particular - will need some Vitality damage too, or their Posture will recover faster than you can wait for them to attack and successfully deflect, even if you deflect everything perfectly. Successfully land several deflections in a row and you'll do some serious Posture damage, but mistimed attempts will leave you very vulnerable - there's a fraction of a second after a failed deflect (say you do it a bit early) where you can't immediately deflect again, so mashing the button will only get you in more trouble. It's hard to master, and intentionally risky. You do this by tapping the guard (block) button with L1/LB just as the enemy blow is right about to land. The second, and more effective in terms of pure impact on Posture, is to successfully deflect enemy attacks. Landing blows to deal actual damage, or hitting an enemy while they block, will both deal moderate Posture damage. There are two ways to break enemy Posture (which both apply to your own Posture in the opposite situation, too). There's also another thing to bear in mind too: Posture recovers much faster when guarding - blocking by holding L1/LB - so create some distance and hold block, even if you don't feel you need to, to lower that meter a little faster. Try to keep your Vitality topped up if your Posture's taking a hammering by using the regular healing items like the Gourd or Pellets. Your own Posture works in the same way - on low health, your Posture will recover much slower. Then, you need to work on filling that Posture bar. In that case, you need to deal some Vitality damage to them - actual damage - to lower the recovery speed of their Posture.

Some enemies' Posture recovers really quickly - looking at you, Lady Butterfly - so quickly in fact that it's almost impossible to fill up their Posture meter if they have full Vitality. Posture and Vitality are linked: posture recovers at a set speed for each enemy you face, but the lower a character's Vitality, the slower their Posture will recover down to zero. The two are also connected, however, and it's only by managing both that you'll have real success with Sekiro's combat in the long run. If the enemy's is filled up, they become susceptible to a Deathblow, too. The other bar is Posture, represented by the yellow gauge that fills up from the centre, which works in the opposite direction: if yours fills up, your defensive guard is broken and you're stunned, unable to block. Have your reduced to zero by taking damage and you die reduce the enemy's to zero by dealing damage and they die (or rather, they become susceptible to an execution via Deathblow). The first is your Vitality, or health, which is pretty standard, and represented by the red bar. There are two bars to bear in mind for every character in Sekiro - and that includes both your own bars and the enemies'.
