3. Quickly press the Triangle Button on your PlayStation controller to execute Retribution.

Retribution can only be performed after you have drained an enemy’s yellow diamond bar by parrying (deflecting their attacks using your own weapon) certain number of their attacks.

The yellow bar indicates the stability of an enemy, when it is completely depleted, the enemy staggers. It basically means that parrying all the attacks, staggers your enemies which opens up a window for a retribution.

Therefore, it is better choice to parry attacks in Stellar Blade instead of dodging and running away.

If the enemy does not die immediately after using the Retribution, then it will stand up again with a refreshed yellow diamond bar.

Thus, to perform a Retribution attack again on the same enemy you will have to drain its yellow diamond bar again.
