Comparing a late game DLC to a whole game isn't exactly fair

That's not really a fair dismissal. You can get in to 1 of the DLC after killing 2 (or even 1) boss, right?

Also, the DLC level-scaled a bit, to account for players entering them at different points. I don't know whether that will be removed in Scholar, though.

down 2nd try. You guys had me worried saying how difficult he was. I pre-psyched myself out.
This was the same for me, I went in thinking the worst.

I've beat 7 so far, thus for fun this is my 1 to 7 ranking of difficulty (1 being hardest). I think during 2-3 I was underlevelled leading to some frustration. Held off on
Vicar because I was so frustrated, Witches were my 4th, then Vicar 5th

1.B
lood Starved Beast
2.F

3.V

4.R

6.S

7.W

Just stacking str atm (now 22) good idea? (Haven't tackled first boss yet)
Not really. Look at the ATK increase each level of STR adds when you level up. It's not much until you upgrade your weapon, assuming you are using a weapon that scales with strength. Not a big deal though and the strength investment will pay off later if you use the right weapons.
 
Tips for Vicar?
I try to get behind her but her sweeping attacks end up hitting me and eventually killing me before she drops below 75%
Beyond making sure she doesn't get to heal herself, the fight should go the same as Cleric Beast

Just make sure to remember that when she does her "praying smash" it does a shockwave that hits you a lot farther than her arms. Dodge that sideways
 
so I'm starting to believe co op is broken somehow. I've been trying to co op with a buddy since launch and we've only connected once.

1. set to world wide or local. tried both
2. changed passwords but they always match
we're in the same spot.
3. he's level 28 and I'm 31
4. i have not come back from stand by and have reset my ps4 multiple times

i don't know what else to do
 
Which one? I took both of them, but neither seemed to bring me near the lantern at the start. If y ou tell me which one specifically I'll look more carefully next time. I assume you mean the one in the tower right before snakes, just making sure

When you first encounter the snakehead enemy inside the dark room and go out to cross a bridge and fight another one, there's an elevator off to the right. That one goes up to the room where you can unlock the door by the lantern.

The other shortcut is another elevator that leads up to that original snakehead dark room but it can be hard to give directions with how big that area is.

From what I've seen using 1H R1 attacks at her legs, arms, face will put her in a momentary stun if you get off enough hits. I ended up summoning 2 other people to get through it before seeing that though.
 
Is there any plot/lore stuff in the Chalice Dungeons? The game feels like it's hinting that there is, and I know (Chalice boss spoiler)
there's a boss called Yharnam, which seems like a weird thing to drop in there if there's no plot significance.

It's definitely a network thing.

Combat tip:
Hit the arm she's leaning on. Generally avoid her attacks by staying behind her but you can repeatedly stun and knock her down if you hit her arm.
 
Beyond making sure she doesn't get to heal herself, the fight should go the same as Cleric Beast

Just make sure to remember that when she does her "praying smash" it does a shockwave that hits you a lot farther than her arms. Dodge that sideways

Can you glitch into her legs too like with cleric beast?
 
I did go left and kill those two
hunters
but I wasn't sure if I should continue or not.

So i'll be going back to that are later I guess?

You eventually come to a dead end in this room where a giant hand grabs you and kills you if you don't have a Tonsil stone. If you do, he takes you to some Nightmare location, where I have not been.
 
So I'm fighting Vicar Amelia. I've staggered a few times using my melee weapon (Kirkhammer +4), but I'm not quite able to read exactly what opening she is giving me to stagger her. Anyone know?
 
Man, VA is kicking my ass and i usually have a good grasp of things, but this one is throwing me off. got BSB down after like 2nd try. and father in like 3. :/

And just as i posted this. GOT HER. hehe
 
After Rom:
I got grabbed by the whatthefuckevenisthat guy and teleported to a new area, but I'm now finding out that's an optional area. How do you get back to wherever the hell that was?

It's her arm that she's leaning on. Hitting that with strong damage staggers her and can give you a V. Attack opening.
 
Until you get comfortable with the mechanics, but then it's pretty smooth sailing. All of them are like that.

I recently popped in Demon's and breezed through 1-1, 1-2, and 4-1 without dying. Would have been impossible when I first bought the game.

Problem is, I hate using/wasting consumable items. So whenever a parry is optimal, I decide not to do that. The nerfed backstabbing has also thrown me out of the loop.
 
I'm just streaming myself losing to Rom over and over again, mattiewheels on twitch.
 
i just save scummed the
3 endings
I am a bad person. If the chalice dungeons don't beat me down, this could be my first platinum.

how is S scaling here? What weapons can get S? Cane didn't.... Hoping it's godly like in Demon's
 
If I'm not having much trouble with this game, should I be able to beat the Souls games without a shield pretty easily? All my many hours of the Souls games were spent turtling behind a shield. I feel like I should go back and try some 2H only runs one day.
 
I've defeated the third boss and the only main weapon I can buy at the moment is the Kirkhammer. Did I leave something behind? Please help me guys!
 
Opens game from suspended state, holds r2 for a charged kirkhammer shot, accidents kills the lady that upgrades your level. Why am I such an idiot? Thank God you can still level up from her dead body.

Edit: she's back to life :)
