ĮDIT 2: IMPORTANT: Shooting the Zed makes the Parry Stumble last LESS time. Source: /u/HaveDOTMoe and /u/flyingbarmitzvah. Also should your zerker be killed, pick up their pulverizer and learn how to PARRY, yes it works the same way for all classes and is ALOT better than tanking raw damage. A couple of things from the comments : Shooting them in the legs can help stumble them to help out (once the trash mobs are cleared, of course). This has a Public Service Announcement from your friendly subreddit dweller, Sexy.ĮDIT: Need to get the message OUT THERE. After that, you can help out the team deal with the fleshpound and scrake, but only if you are very certain there are not anymore trash zeds lurking around. What can you do, I hear you ask? Do the zerkers and supports a favor while they deal with those big zeds (fleshpound and scrake) and kill the trash zeds (clots,gorefast,bloats,sirens,crawlers and cloakers) just swarming the place, now that's your job. Seriously, Commando isn't a class to deal with those big zeds especially with say, a scar that has a low magazine capacity, they are meant to soak up all of those rounds without even flinching, so please god, DON'T BE A HERO. If you don't have 100% confidence in parrying the next heavy attack, just do a normal blocking and back down to catch up the tempo, don't risk taking full damage, or you'll drive your medic mad.Don't. Most melee weapons can use reload button to cancel the blocking recovery animation, which can decrease the time you need to begin the next parrying animation. You can perform a parry by pressing MouseWheel (Default) right when a Zed is about to hit you. Same applies to FP, unless you absolutely need to solo it with Pulverizer or hold it off, just take a single hit to derage it and get away immediately so your teammates can get another shot at it. I tried the wiki which says: 'Parrying means blocking a Zeds attack with a melee weapon at the right time to stumble it while recieving only minor damage (The bigger the weapon used, the better the parry).
You should also take action accordingly, don't face hugging every single zed you see, especially when your sharp/demo needs only one headshot to kill SC, they can't get a clear shot if you send the SC into various of unpredictable animations. So a common tanking tactic is to activate red eye by parrying, then switch to Bone Crusher blocking for maximum damage mitigation. The red eye buff gives you 40% extra all-damage resistance, which can be combined with other resistance. Most weapons block more damage when parrying than simply blocking, except Bone Crusher, which does the exact opposite.
