Very useful for dodging attacks with lingering hitboxes or attacks that last very long, like Waterfowl Dance. It also doesn't move you or consume stamina, so it's good for maintaining aggression because you don't move yourself out of range or waste stamina dodging.

Basically fancy Dodging, but you consume 20 FP and look cool

So, I'm curious. After watching a handful of Elden Ring videos, I still have questions. Is Golden Parry (Parrying), Golden Retaliation (Block & Retaliate against any Sorcery/Incantation) or Vow of the Indomitable (Invincibility) better/easier for most scenarios?
Please correct me if I'm wrong here: 1) Golden Parry has to be timed correctly to go through, but it negates a physical attack, breaks an enemies' stance, and opens them up to a counter. Albeit, from the front. 2) Essentially, with the Erdtree Great Shield, it would allow you to block 100% of all physical damage and 100% of all Sorcery/Incantation Damage while retaliating (damaging) back from the front. However, both of the prior abilities need to be timed well and only protect you from frontal physical or magic attacks, right? Meaning, that if a boss or an enemy does an AoE attack, has a long reach, or manages to attack you from the flank or rear, you're screwed. 3) So, in this case, wouldn't Vow of the Indomitable (Invincibility) be the best overall choice as it doesn't matter the direction of the attack or attack type, it negates everything for a set limited duration.

Can you guard counter out of this or is it just the iframes?
Would be really sweet if you could ignore an incoming attack completely and still get a guard counter after

I wrote the previous comment about how great vow is with the endurance and holding position, I again want to echo this as I've continued using it, it is instrumental - I've played through ng with 9 vigor and only am able to do so because of this ash of war, it also looks hella sweet when everything is exploding around you and you just cast this - super cool looking
additionally if you have fp but not quite 20 it still casts so, its just really pivotal

The great part of this skill that I use often is it allows holding position and costs 0 stamina so if you have big mind and little endurance this is important or if you are out of stamina can use fp instead
Additionally will not gain bleed or any other effect one might get for dodge rolling.

One of my favourite ashes because it kind of looks like your punching whatever you tank through
Having trouble being roll catched? Just use this and completely ignore it!
