🎱 Dark Souls 3 Backstab Not Working

When I'm using Great Weapons they just wait for me to swinging for like two times. And dodging between my swings. Then they're easily going at my back and backstab me.

There are a few situations where backstabs can't be landed on your opponent. These situations are: Just after getting up from a knockdown During a stun animation Let's say the enemy you choose to backstab and yourself are facing one another lets call the enemies facing position 6 o'clock, you need to drop your shield and walk to his 1-2 o'clock and immediately STOP and press light attack. It is imparitive that you have your shield down and come to a complete stop to backstab. Make sure you're not holding your shield up as you backstab. You need it to be down before you actually press the button to attack for it to register as a backstab. I'm not sure if this is your problem, but it could help. 12. Hi_Im_Jack_Glen. • 11 yr. ago.
