The source describes an Elden Ring player who struggled against a Crucible Knight with dual katanas and dual greatswords, then tried a small shield after a friend mentioned parrying. It does not say whether the attempt succeeded or provide enough detail to recommend a specific shield, timing, or follow-up attack.
What the source supports
The video title identifies the encounter as a Crucible Knight fight in Elden Ring. The description says the player tried using a small shield after the dual-wielding approaches failed. It does not identify the shield by name or establish that parrying defeated the enemy.
If you are using this source to choose a next step, its supported takeaway is limited: the player changed from dual-wielding weapons to trying a small shield and parrying. Treat that as an attempted approach, not a confirmed strategy or result.
