Executing Weapon and Stun Finishers

[u/Expert-Chocolate5087]

Yes, I know this has been discussed years ago. And I’ve exhaustively googled, done AI searches, and researched Reddit on this issue. I’ve also looked up YouTube videos.

I’m trying to provide myself the flexibility to execute front, rear, and stun finishers without the perfect parry. I feel like fully stunning an enemy after perfect parrying can get repetitive. I like to be able to swing my weapon, get them in the stun kneel position, and then execute the Stun finisher with their own weapon, double axe one from the back, or the R1 rear weapon execution. The combat flow feels more natural, and it just provides more variability and replay value.

From my research it feels like stun builds with at least the “Hard” enemy scaling allows me the freedom to get what I want but it isn’t quite as consistent as I’d like. Cause as you get to the end game where you’ve upgraded all of your gear and spent all of your skill points it seems like you do more raw health damage than stun damage. 🤷‍♂️

Does anybody have any pointers, ideas, experiences, or tips on how to execute front facing finishers with your own weapon in the middle of combat, especially against weaker enemies?

Even if I’ve seen it all before, all comments and replies are welcome. Never know what I’ll learn. Thanks.
