A faithful port of the Bedrock Parry mod to Java Edition. No shield required — any item (or no item) works. Just time your attack to match the enemy's.
How It Works
If you and an enemy hit each other within a 0.4-second window (8 ticks), the person who hit first gets the parry. The second hitter is punished:
- ❌ Takes zero damage
- 🌀 Gets stunned (Slowness II + Weakness I for 3 seconds)
- 💥 Gets knocked back away from the parry winner
- ✨ A parry sound + critical-hit particle burst plays
- 🔢 The winner's parry counter increments
This works in both directions:
- You hit an enemy, then it hits you → YOU parry (the enemy gets stunned)
- An enemy hits you, then you hit it → IT parries (you get stunned)
No shield needed. No specific item required. Fist, sword, axe — anything works.

ciservermodding-parry-1.0.0.jarand place it in yourmods/folder - Launch the game and join any world or server
Server Installation
Place both the Fabric API jar and the Parry jar in the server's mods/ folder. Clients connecting to the server do not need the mod installed (all logic runs server-side), but can install it if they want.
Compatibility
- ✅ Fabric (not Forge/NeoForge)
- ✅ Client + Server (
environment: "*") — install on either or both - ✅ All parry logic runs server-side (safe no-op on a pure client)
- ✅ Works with all other Fabric mods
- ✅ No experiments or beta APIs
- ✅ No mixins — uses only Fabric API events
- ✅ No custom items, blocks, or entities (pure logic mod)
Technical Details
- Parry window: 8 ticks (0.4 seconds at 20 TPS)
- Stun: Slowness II + Weakness I, 60 ticks (3 seconds)
- Knockback: 1.8 horizontal + 0.6 vertical (away from the parry winner)
- Toggle: Uses vanilla entity tags (
parry_disabled) — persists via NBT, visible to/tag list
