How to get Golden Retaliation in Elden Ring
- This Skill can only be acquired by equipping Erdtree Greatshield.
Elden Ring Golden Retaliation Guide, Notes & Tips
- This is a Unique Skill
- FP Cost: 4
- This Skill is not Chargeable
- Intercepts a single magical projectile and fires a homing projectile in return. The projectile deals holy damage and scales with the upgrade level of the shield, but not any stats.
- Talismans like Shard of Alexander and Sacred Scorpion Charm increase the damage of the projectile.
- The projectile fired by Golden Retaliation cannot be intercepted by another Golden Retaliation.
- The player's own spells/incantations can be reflected by this, so Discus of Light and Triple Rings of Light, which automatically return to the caster after reaching their max travel distance can set this skill up. Since all of them deal holy damage, you get great value out of the Sacred Scorpion Charm and Holy-Shrouding Cracked Tear with this set up.
- If multiple projectiles are approaching in quick succession, this skill will only intercept one of the projectiles. The rest will still connect.

You could turn this into a wombo combo discus is very cheap send it out hit comes back hit parry the discus n boom another hit
God I wish that other Erdtree great shields could reflect this. Ping pong for days boys

I don't understand the part about triple rings of light, what would be the point of parrying my own incantations?
Is it known if the skill is activated by melee-based spells? I know the wiki specifies projectiles but I think additional clarifying would help. Such as carian slicer, gavel of haima, or ancient dragon lightning spear. I'll test it later if I get the chance and update accordingly. If it doesn't proc off of those types, the gavel of haima might be a good counter if you can hit it as it recently got increased stamina damage against blocking opponents.

Has anyone been brave enough to try this against bolt of gransacks?
If so, does it work?

Golden Retaliation does scale with Strength and Faith after testing.
Arrow’s Reach Talisman also affects the damage falloff of the projectile, though Arrow’s Sting does not boost damage.

What is the timing on this? I tried several times in pvp and it never worked. Is there a patch that messed with its moonveil counter?

If this is used against Elden Beast, does he regain his health? (Given it is holy damage)

Can it intercept dragon breath attacks? Or bestial incantations, such as bestial sling or rock throw? Since, well, they are projectiles, even though they are physical.

So we can get a magic version of this, Carian Retaliation, which scales with INT but it is also an ash if war so you can put it on any shield and also give better INT scaling through the same ash of war. But a faith build has to pump 30 points into STR to use this. Cool

Does upgrading the shield improve the damages of the GOLDEN RETALIATION ?

is it just me or does this shield shoot a golden projectile regardless of parrying spells?
saw some ridiculous golden beams hitting me for 800 a piece from a guy without actually using spells on them

Apparently this can be combined with Fire's Deadly Sin to replicate the Crystal Ring Shield's ranged attack from DS1.
