South Park Fractured But Whole: How to Block

How to Block in South Park: The Fractured But Whole

South Park: The Fractured But Whole features an overhauled combat system replacing the more traditional one seen in The Stick of Truth. This time around, the combat has been overhauled to have more of a tactical role-playing game style. Imagine a very streamlined and crass version of Final Fantasy Tactics and you’ll kind of, sort of get the picture.

You might be wondering if you can block in-battle and the answer is sometimes. Not every class has the ability to block incoming attacks. Blocking is a positive status effect generally given to the front line brutalists like Super Craig or Tupperware. Look at the various abilities you or your allies have access to and see if they have the ability to block. If so, blocking will reduce (or in the case of some specific abilities nullify entirely) incoming attacks for a specified amount of time.

That said, there is no way to just block on your own. If you can’t attack anyone, you can choose to use an item or end your turn but there isn’t a way for anyone to just block instead.
