As a seasoned Space Marine veteran, I’ve seen my fair share of Tyranid invasions, and let me tell you, these creatures don’t play around! But fear not, for I’ve mastered the art of parrying and executing enemies in Space Marine 2.
In Space Marine 2, most Tyranids primarily use close combat attacks to overpower their foes. Instead of solely focusing on eliminating enemies prior to an attack, players should be prepared for simultaneous assaults from multiple angles due to the sheer number of Tyranids they may encounter.
While players can dodge to get out of the way, parrying incoming attacks is a great way to turn the tide of a fight back in your favor, and even set enemies up for a brutal execution. Parrying and executing enemies are some of the best options in combat, and lead to a steady supply of health.
How To Parry Attacks In Space Marine 2
Attacks can come from the larger Tyranid Warriors or the smaller gaunts, and parrying them can be slightly different. The best time to parry an incoming attack is when the enemy flashes blue. Landing a parry during that window will result in you breaking their defense if they are a Tyranid Warrior, or just outright killing them if they are a gaunt. To parry, simply press L1 on PlayStation, LB on Xbox, or C on PC right before the attack hits you. Parrying an attack that is highlighted blue will also sometimes require an earlier parry than some players are used to, meaning you should parry as the enemy lunges at you, but before they begin the swing animation.
Even when the enemy doesn’t glow blue before an attack, it can still be parried. Parrying these regular attacks with a gauntlet will either severely damage them or even kill them, although the animation might not be as dramatic. Parrying a standard attack against a Tyranid Warrior will block the strike but won’t disrupt their combo or defense, potentially leading to further attacks.
Attacks when an enemy flashes red cannot be parried and should be dodged.
How To Perform Executions In Space Marine 2
To carry out an enemy marked in red, press R3 on PlayStation, the right joystick on Xbox, or E on PC. These execution moves are a stylish way to eliminate enemies and even restore your health. However, you can also finish them off with a few gunshots or simple melee attacks. To make an enemy flash red, players should:
- Shoot an enemy multiple times.
- Break their Synaptic connection.
- Hit the enemy with a melee weapon multiple times.
- Hit the enemy with a grenade or explosion that doesn’t finish them off.
- Parry an attack with a blue flash on a weakened enemy.
Larger enemies such as Tyranid Warriors just need to have their health reduced to be executed, but landing a parry on a blue flash attack when they are already weak usually speeds up this process greatly. Smaller gaunts will usually be killed once they lose their Synaptic connection, but those left will be stuck flashing red and can be executed for easy sources of health back after a tough fight.
