I have to say I'm not a fan of this healing system...It was fine in Demons because so many enemies dropped them and there were varying strengths..Every 2nd boss I need to stop for 2 hours to farm more phials, made far worse by the massive load times.

Go to Central Yharnam lamp and run through the house to the bridge. Kill the fatty and werewolves, go back down through the house, killing fatties outside, down the elevator across the bridge and kill everything there. You should be close to max vials after one run. You can suicide off the ledge at the end to go back and do it a couple more times. Takes 5-10 minutes depending on the number of runs you do.
 
Alright 40k blood echoes saved up. Now should I buy the blades of mercy is the question. It is what I saved up for. Mhm yeah fuck it seems like a very good skill based weapon which is what I'm going for anyway.
 
A lot of people seem to have trouble with the sniper in O

so it's naturally one of my favorite places to co-op early game. Here's a video I made showing my own personal approach to the sniper as well as a not very impressive fight that I still undeservedly won.

Nice approach. Funny... when I finally fought him the 3rd time, he wasn't tough.

He kept stunlocking me. So on my 3rd attempt I thought I'd stunlock him to approach. Immediately after climbing the ladder, I shot him with my pistol. Moved up, shot again. Moved up, shot once more... and he falls off the ledge. Dead. Had me laughing.

Oh man. He finishes me off with two gun shots, so I never managed to live long enough to see something like that happen.
 
If you mean the werewolf you're supposed to (although you can kill it). If you mean the fodder enemies after you got your weapon and shit... well :p
The Latter. =(
Starting to get it a bit now though.
Ok now how do I save and or quit or does this game demand you play in one sitting?
 
Got the kirkhammer. Love the sword.

Does "skill" govern quick weapons like the sword while the hammer is governed by strength? Its pretty cool how skill, strength, and endurance seem to all rely on each other while bloodtinge is important for guns.. they all mesh really well, though I'm not sure what arcane is for

No its 1 weapon not 2, and it scales with STR

Forbidden Woods
is huge. Thought I'd be sneaky and swipe three mobs facing away from me, they turned around and chewed me to bits. Was 100k Echoes on me body and the last lantern was aeons ago. Think I can kiss those echoes goodbye :(
 
Mazel tov. Shit, I meant molotov. Those work wonders. Get some souls, return to the hunter's dream, then stock up. A couple of well placed shots kept him out of my face during that fight.

Also, as a milquetoast, where should I be putting my souls? Right now I've been dumping them in Vit and End, but I think I'm about to fight that crazy ass turned Hunter next, so I wanted to know if I needed anything else buffed for the encounter.

You can stagger and eviscerate him when he does his howling move, as long as you use the power attack first. Also, moltovs do a lot of damage to him.


Anyone?

Thanks, yeah that's what I did. I died so I'm gonna farm some money to stock up.
 
Finally I got my copy! Estimated delivery date was for tomorrow so I am happy it arrived today!
Time to go get food and drink.
 
still with the cane because there aren't any other weapon with decent Skill scaling, or at least I haven't found any yet.
 
Man, bosses in this game become seemingly a lot easier after the first 2. My deathcount per boss has lowered with each new boss

boss 1 - 20+ deaths
boss 2 - 4 deaths
boss 3 - 2 deaths
boss 4 - 1 death
boss 5 - 0 deaths

5'th one was almost depressingly easy.
 
This is turning out to be something very special.

I'm talking Demon's-special here, folks. I can't fucking believe it. How did they pull this off? I'm one of the very few people who haven't felt _this_ since Demon's in 2009. It's been too long, ladies and gents. But the game of the generation might already be here.

I had trouble with BSB, I used coop with Vica Amelia because I wanted to try it out. Cleric Beast wasn't that hard to me, BSB was a bitch though.

I haven;t gotten to the 4th or 5th yet but I can tell you that I died like 20 times on the first one, 1 time on the second, and 0 times on the 3rd.
 
PVP is really fun! Not sure if it will have the lasting appeal that Dark Souls PVP did (partly because of the awkward mechanics), but I've really enjoyed it. A lot less "endless circling, dodging, and backstab fishing, with nobody ever taking damage" like in Dark Souls.

To be fair, that is completely up to the game - if it continues this way, I'm safe. If interns takes over after half the game, then I'm screwed.

I honestly think this might top Demon's for me.

And Demon's is my favorite fucking game ever. That's... wow.
 
For the sake of FashionBorne, I say definitely worth it.

(Personally I haven't once looked at the stats for the various clothing sets yet. Just wear the ones I think look the coolest.)

Same here. Which is why I wear the Hidden Village armor set minus the hat.. Machine Guy Hunter's Hat is the best imo.

I completely agree. This is Demons all over again. And much needed.
