So anyone know what's up with arcane scaling on Ludwigs Blade? I brought STR to 25 at which point I noticed investing in skill would provide more ATK per point. I decided to put two points in arcane instead because it has B scaling thinking the damage just might not show on the level screen, but the ATK bonus on the weapon didn't change at all.

 

[Opto]

I don't know what I'm doing and I love it! Optional guy in Old Yharnam is someone I'll leave until later cause FUCK THAT.

1. I dunno what the key does

direct her to a safe house of some kind, either a church or another one I haven't found

3. The yellow circle means you have your trick weapon transformed

Spoiler

T_T I killed a little girl. I must correct that in NG+!

Was that circle there the whole time? If so I must be very unobservant.

He's easy. Didn't land a single shot on me and I didn't even hit the dodge button once.

Father G is changing form much earlier than ive read he's supposed to. Makes it pretty hard.

Are you

I haven't been able to summon anyone in a chalice dungeon despite playing a few hours. What's up with that?

Arcane only starts affecting it if you turn the damage of the blade to arcane, fire, or bolt. Of course you lose the str scaling after that.

What's the best way to grind insight? I cannot beat the h

unter

in Old Yharnam and need to summon someone to help me, but I have zero insight.

Help?

Easiest way is to just pop one of the Madman's Insight items.

If you don't have any you can just help someone with a boss.

I have no more of the items, and don't have the next set of bells and stuff =\, I can only ask for help, not give help myself

Anybody else know what I can do to maybe get more of the madman items?

 

[Rurunaki]

I am getting my ass handed to me by this

Spoiler

Cane Whip Hunter that does that stupid arcane spell in Bergenerfgekjfe

 

[Tyrant Rave]

They really need to make it so you use insight when you actually summon your first player as opposed to just ringing the bell.

 

[Orthogonal]

Remote play on your vita!

Ya, really need to buy one.

 

[Sullichin]

Arcane only starts affecting it if you turn the damage of the blood to arcane, fire, or bolt.

Oh, so there's still weapon paths besides the gems?

 

[H1PSTER]

Are gun builds possible or do they suck?

 

[Panda Rin]

Spoiler

Blood-starved beast so far is a pretty easy fight...outside of the moment where he just grabs me and almost one-hit KOs mean and poisons me at the same time..

 

[flipswitch]

I'm 9hrs in level 16 and still using the weapons I started with. There are no weapons in the Hunter's dream so I don't know where I will be getting new weapons from.

The game gets harder if you have more than 20 insight?

How are there so many bloodstains in the dream? Is it possible to poison yourself? They don't seem to be using the katana or other weapons that drain your health

Uh, I don't think that's true. Is it? Sounds like is durability is just low on you weapon.

Same damn thing happened to me. Lost 18K though.

 

[CMojicaAce]

There are some areas that can be invaded regardless of whether they are searching for coop or not. Otherwise yes, you're correct.

You can invade when a particular bell maiden is actuve in the host world. They appear when Coop is initiated and in a few late game areas. If killed, Invasions stop.

You can invade co-op players and other players who have used the sinister bell. Both actions seem to draw the Bellmaiden to your world and that makes you vulnerable for invasion.

3 last invasions have been against 2 or 3 guys which I find to be even more impossible than in earlier From games.

I see. Thanks!

down first try. Seems like the only boss I had issues with was Cleric pretty much due to the camera. That run from that lamp gives some great echoes heading back up to the MG.
