Can someone post control tutorial video again for me? I want to know how to assign molotov cocktails to quick slot.

Edit: nvm. My question is already answered.

 

[DSix]

I keep respawning at the top of the first ladder that I climbed. Then I keep dying trying to progress forward through the mobs.

How do you throw a pebble?

I have the same issue, I can't seem to find the third lantern and I keep dying to

the two big wolfbeasts on the bridge

. I'm not even sure if I'm going the right way.

Didn't even think of that! Lol

How the fuck do i get to the third boss? I already killed the fucker on the top of the building.

 

[Dante316]

Yeah, turn back. Its

near the werewolves. On that same exact bridge actually.

I'm in the sewer now and I think I'm headed towards the second area.

So 1st boss is before you get the hunters outfit? on the bridge I took a shortcut, I did see something crawling on the right side, mayb that was the boss?

 

[owlbeak]

Killed the first boss with almost no health and no vials left. somehow managed to stun-lock him and get the last 4 hits in.

 

[Duxxy3]

Probably made this harder on myself than I needed to

Blood starved beast

with no antidotes or bullets. Don't know how many times I did that fight. Got tired of farming, so I just said fuck it... I'm doing without.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

damn.. wolves on the bridge eat my lunch.

I've finished the second boss, and so far those two wolves are the hardest enemies in the game. I cannot get the timing down for stunning them with a pistol blast.

Go left instead

Looking for advice on how to level. I'm using a saw clever. Should I just alternate points between str vit and end?

I haven't even gotten to them... Are we going the right way?

The dude on the top of the building... climb down the ladder, and look to the right, and there's a whole area down there.

How do you throw a pebble?

Hit the options button, go to the last row and equip a pebble in one of the slots. Down on the D-pad will scroll through those quick items. Press square to use the item.

Just remember with the mobs: take them one at a time. Don't rush in and fight 3 or 4 at a time. Try not to even fight 2 at a time.

Also, don't take the hits for granted. The mobs will go crazy on you and kill you really quickly. Dodge back and wait for an opening before you go in.

 

[Kandrick]

No blood or ammo left. This is fun.

Did you mean The Beginner's Guide to Bloodborne? Some of the basic controls are outlined in it.

 

[Dresden]

Blew up Father G again. I really do find Cleric to be a tougher fight, and a longer one, at that.

Hope rerolling for arcane works out.

 

[Roussow]

I saw someone mention the term frame pacing in relation to the games frame rate being suspect. What is frame pacing, and how is it in play in Bloodborne?

 

[RedEther]

I just got bodied by him :/

Lol that Squall Leonhart motherfucker rolled off the ledge. That works too I guess.

Also, where do i get the music box?

Here's a tip.

Spoiler

If run run past the werewolves, you'll notice a stairway into a building to your left. Go in there and follow that path. It'll give you a shortcut back to the second lantern.

 

[george_us]

That feel when you find a shortcut.

Its a new gesture. Open the gesture menu and hit the button to switch - should see it there.

 

[GulAtiCa]

Thanks for the help ricelord.

 

[plasticpassion]

to go assist someone else's game, you have to yourself ring an alternate "small helper bell" or whatever it's called. so both people ring their balls and the game matches them up.

the problem is they kinda hid this smaller bell item for helpers on an insight merchant that I didn't even know existed until 20 hours in. I suspect because of this lots of people don't know how to assist.

Where is the merchant? Haven't found any except in the rest area.

Really hope rerolling for arcane works out.

I think it's the fact that firearms can stun the Cleric Beast like...one time. While Gascoigne and company can get nailed by hot lead, and stunned over and over.

 

[ricelord]

Thanks for the help ricelord.

no problem lol

 

[qa_engineer]

The first boss was too hard for me to solo so I summoned hunters to help. Even with 3 people, two of witch seemed pretty decked out, it was still a challenge.

Spoiler

I have to fight the bor or big beast and then the hunter boss

 

[Hypemaster]

Fuck! I fell down and got jumped by

Spoiler

6 of those giant rats.

This is embarrassing. It's going to take forever for me to get to the second boss the way I keep on dying.

 

[super-famicom]

That feel when you find a shortcut.

Shortcuts are an amazing thing!

 

[skLaFarebear]

So 1st boss is before you get the hunters outfit? on the bridge I took a shortcut, I did see something crawling on the right side, mayb that was the boss?

Assuming you've unlocked the shortcut from the bridge to the lamp (the one where you run through the house), if you come up on the bridge, to your left will be ravens and the orge thing and the right will be the two wearwolves, go left past the ravens and that's where the 1st boss is.

Also, its not before the hunter's outfit since that's a deadend anyway.

No pebbles in my quick items... Where do I get pebbles?

 

[Kinsei]

Backstab them. They're vulnerable after that large bite they do (the tell is when the rear up on their back legs). If you lure one over with a pebble you should have enough time to kill one before the other notices the fighting.

No pebbles in my quick items... Where do I get pebbles?

The crow monsters drop them. There's also quite a few bodies laying around that have them.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Thanks for the help ricelord.

Was getting into the co-op session easy? I don't get it, I've had the small bell equipped, GAF's password, and been waiting in boss spots and everywhere else and can't find anyone.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

the true bloodborne begins here

 

[Navy Bean]

5 bosses in and it's perfect. Axe and Cleaver. Pfft. Cane!!!! All the way!

I switched to the saw blade...;(. The damn whip is too unreliable and hits the geometry too often for my tastes. That said, as I am a skill build I will try it again once the stat bonuses increase.

 

[Ryuzaki07]

I just got bodied by him :/

That was the most awesome encouter ive ever had in any of the souls games.

Spoiler

i mean, suddenly he starts shooting at you witha minigun and you have to fight the rest of the stage minding him? Seriously badass shit.

Same question for you. It's driving me mad, I can't connect with anyone

[Laurentius]

Yesss, beat the second boss. That was an incredibly fun and tense fight.

 

[Kandrick]

It's really tedious.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

First ever Souls game.

2 hours and no progress was made past the Cleric Beast.

Is this normal or do I objectively suck real hard at this?

 

[Primethius]

No pebbles in my quick items... Where do I get pebbles?

You have to assign them to your quick items from your inventory. They are found around the world. You might not have any.

The other way then to draw aggro of only one enemy is to slowly walk forward and kind of hope only one turns around. Alternatively, you can try swinging your sword from a bit further away and hope the noise attracts the attention of one or two enemies.

Try to position yourself in narrow areas where the enemies funnel towards you. This way you can do a horizontal attack and hit multiple enemies.
