📋 About This Mod
Updated 05/12/2026 - Conversion Updates Coming Soon! (Reborn/Reforged/Convergence/Etc) As Well as the TAE's and the Version Without the Startup Catch (Less Cheesy) for More Difficulty.
Tested On 05/12/2026
This Mod Changes Buckler Parry, Carian Retaliation, Standard Parry, Storm Wall, Golden Parry, and Thops's Barrier by Extending the Parry/Spell Retaliate Frames to Cover the Entire Animation. This Allows You to Spam the Skill if You Want to Guarantee a Parry.
Update: Added Convergence Support as a Beta Version Under Optional Files, You Do Not Need the Main Download, Only the Convergence Download.
Update Addendum: Added Elden Ring Reforged in the Same Way as a Beta Version.
Update Addendum Addendum: Added CleverRaptor's Moveset Mod Version With All Standard Parry Changes and All New Weapon Parry Animations as Well as Adding Dodge Frames for One Weapon (Hinokami AoW) as a Beta Version.
Important Note: I HAVE NOT Done Extensive Testing With the Versions for Reforged/Clever/Convergence... I've Only Played Through the Game Once With the Mod and Easy Parry Which Worked Fine. I Tested Everything I Could But Let Me Know if You Encounter Issues.
Update 1. 1 Added Support for the DLC
Update 1. 0 Added Standard Parry, Storm Wall, Golden Parry, and Thops's Barrier and I am Open to Additional Suggestions.
This Mod Was Made for Elden Ring 1. 07 and is Easily Integrated Into Other Mods as it Doesn't Require a Regulation.bin to Work.
Installation Instructions (With or Without Other Mods):
1: Copy the contents of the archive into your mod folder (Tested using ModEngine2 Release 4 but it should work with others) and launch the mod loader. Note that you MUST keep the folder structure as-is and ensure the file is in the "chr" subfolder inside the existing "mod" folder.
If you have any issues (or comments/suggestions) shoot me a message at the Discord link below or post here on Nexus Mods...thanks for trying my mod!
Note 2: Less powerful version posted as "EasyParry_DLC_v1p3b - No Startup Catch" in the optional files. This will remove the ability to just spam parry and make you at least have to try a little.

Easy Parry extends the parry window for all parry skills and spells in Elden Ring, including Buckler Parry, Carian Retaliation, Standard Parry, Storm Wall, Golden Parry, and Thops' Barrier. It also offers optional compatibility patches for Convergence, Clever's Moves, and Reforged mods. This is a quality-of-life mod for players who find parrying timing too strict.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 496 endorsements and over 23k downloads—clearly a popular tweak.
- Makes parrying accessible to players who struggle with the tight timing, without removing the skill element entirely.
- Optional compatibility patches show the author cares about the modding ecosystem.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects parry timing—if you're looking for broader combat changes, this won't do it.
- Requires manual installation or mod manager setup, and you'll need to pick the right optional file for your mod list.
- No detailed instructions in the description, so you'll need to know how to install mods for Elden Ring.
For Elden Ring players who love parrying but find the default timing too punishing. Also great for those using overhaul mods like Convergence who want a more forgiving parry. Skip if you want a complete combat overhaul—this is a focused tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using Convergence, Clever's Moves, or Reforged, grab the matching optional file from the Files tab—don't use the main file with those mods.
- Back up your original regulation.bin file before replacing it, so you can revert if something goes wrong.
- Test parry timing on a low-level enemy first to get a feel for the new window before heading into boss fights.
