Press block when the shield is lit up green to expertly block his attack wil expending no stamina. This time, when he attacks, you’ll now see a little shield icon in the center of your attack diagram. There’s more to it than just matching an opponent’s stance. If he goes high, you go low, and vice-versa.įinally, Bernard will tell you that you’ve been blocking all wrong. The next trick is how to get through an opponent’s defenses - attack where their weapon (or shield) is not. Lucky for you, that’s the next lesson, after fighting for a bit, your health will be restored and training will continue. This will not end well, as Bernard is a master of stringing endless combo attacks together, while easily parrying and riposte your attacks.

Simply holding down block all day will drain your stamina until you can’t keep up anymore.Īfter this, he’ll challenge you to put your skills to the test in a free fight. You may have noticed all the time you’ve been attacking, he’s been moving his sword to the same side to shrug off your attacks.ĭo the same here - watch which position he moves his sword to, and once he starts swinging, make sure you press the block button in that angle before it hits. Speak to him to start your real training, and you can choose either to start with the basics or go right into the advanced training if you think you know what you’re doing.Īfter the basics - moving, attacking, stabbing, and chain strikes, Bernard will ask you to start defending yourself. The next morning, you can either head East from the mill or go back into Rattay’s Lower Gate and go through the walled town and out through the Upper Gate by the other castle.Ĭaptain Bernard should show up at the training grounds at around 8 in the morning. It will probably be dark by the time you’re done speaking to Lord Radzig, so it’s a good idea to go back to the mill and get some sleep.
