So my first update. Made me first character. He was going to be DEX route. Was doing fine. Reached first boss. Couldn't get the fucker below half health. After many tries I fucking give up and my friends, who I'm chatting with the whole time as we all play our own game, tell me to make a new char with another weapon. Make a new char. Give him Saw Cleaver. Beat the first boss on FIRST try with new weapon and way less hits. Actually get to stagger it. Blaze through the rest after I upgrade it to +1. Reach second boss eventually. Become a master at countering the
beast mode
after fourth attempt where he combo'd me way too much. Just reached
cathedral lamp
. Calling it a day.

Moral of the story is that FUCK the cane, useless piece of shit. I don't live the pimp life. I live the cleaver life. Until I get my next weapon which I should be maybe one area away.

Also, I can't be the only one who
used the music box on Father G, am I?

Nope. Use it, charge attack, backstabbbuuuuuuuuuuu. Then counter with gun until it does. Fire-weapon counter is so fun when you perfect it.
 
Question.

I am about to face B
lood
S
tarved
B
east
and I wanted to know if there is a lantern closer than Old Yarnham.
 
Repost:

I just lost my souls. I went to where I was killed and don't see them. Does it stop appearing after your first death?

Sometimes your blood echoes are claimed by an enemy nearby. It doesn't have to be the enemy that killed you. They have glowing purple eyes. Kill them to get your stuff back.
 
I guess so, he had a lightning mace friend. I think i found a way to cheese him. Sneak up on him and visceral him then play ring around a tree to occasionally combo him

Yeah, that's the way to the
area you should go to after bosses 1 thru 4. Rough place.

I missed the music box. I looked it up after I already beat him and I was in the sewers too. I actually had a lot more trouble with Cleric Beast for some reason. I beath Father G on my third try.
 
Never played souls. Cleric Beast has me like whoa. Farming everything and returning to hunter's dream constantly to upgrade shit.


No need for that. Just do a game run with no leveling and use your fists. It wont be hard once you get the hang of it. :-)

Be on the lookout for enemies with glowing eyes in those cases. They are holding them.
Can confirm glowing eyes. the thing that charges you in sewers had kill me(I thought) and when I got back, nope, stupid crow all sitting there with super glowing eyes. One hit him and got em back....little fucker.
 
Can someone explain the riposte with the cane? I was fighting the first boss and sometimes he would go into a stun animation where I could R1 him for a riposte animation. I know you can stun with guns, but not sure how it works with the sword type weapons since it looked like I was hitting him after his attack registered
 
So I've been getting my ass handed to me by
father g
. I thought he was the first boss but it looks like I may have missed
cleric beast
. How the hell did I manage to do that!?

Well I could never do it with cane, but with saw cleaver attacking one of its arms, likely the fluffy left, eventually gets him to stagger. I couldn't beat it with the cane, fuck that cane right in the cane. Saw cleaver all the way

Its at the end of the bridge where there are the two werewolves and the ogre dude with the brick.
 
Post second boss questions:

Shouldn't his armor unlock after beating him? I don't see it in the shop.

Also, did you guys turn the brooch into a gem or give it to the girl?

His armor is at the Insight vendor and you need 10 insight to even be able to look at the vendors items.

You have to attack when they're in kind of a kneeling state and it should work. It's kinda awkward till you get used to it.
 
Where did you find that? I had no idea there was such a thing.

I just beat him and forgot to use it! What did it do?

There's a part where you can climb up a ladder to reach a shortcut gate back to the area with the circular fountain where you first see the dogs and right at the top of that ladder is a window you can talk to a little girl through. Agree to find her mother (Viola) and she'll give you a Music Box that her father {Gascoigne} always liked to hear.

If you use it during the battle, it stuns him as he clutches his head. Does not work on the Beast Form
 
Well I beat the
blood starved beast
after i'm not kidding roughly 30 attempts. I was on him for about 3.5 hours. Somehow I didn't rage quit and powered through to victory though.

I eventually changed weapons and ended up beating him on the second shot with the
sawblade, i was previously using the kirkhammer
. As a side note I ran out of antidotes and health potions multiple times and had to go restock and farm blood. That's some pro-Bloodborne right there.

I'm still not good at this game at all, but I really am enjoying it. Game of the Year so far 9 hours in.

Although the loading screens are brutally long when you are just dying to a boss over and over again.
 
Is anyone else getting disconnected from the servers every time they use the beckoning bell? Because I am. Trying to figure out if it's on me or the servers.
 
That makes sense. I randomly got blood echoes recovered a few times.

I just need to figure out where to go next. Mob around the fire with something big on the other side of that door. Can't open it.
