He's pretty easy to parry with your gun then you can get a lot of damage on him

make sure the pudding isn't too soggy but that just ruins everything
Is there a non-spoilery guide to the chalice dungeon mechanics?
I went through the first one, but honestly don't understand the point of it all. Just curious about the mechanics/system.
You aren't really supposed to be there yet. Grab the items, farm some resources, there's a secret or two... but yeah... you can come back later. Those two sack bastards can be cheesed for

Confirmed! Prices in the stores has nothing to do with what level you are. I'm lvl 4 and the price of the echoes, along with everything else has increased.
They increase with the story progression, and blood vials cap themselves at 900 echoes each (NG+).

Thanks!
Is that all? That's disappointing, I was hoping for some actual effect like setting the windmill on fire in Dark Souls 2.

how do you know about this?
There is a tunnel behind the lycan village (with the big trap hole in the center), go through that tunnel to end up at an underground lake, cross it and enter another tunnel, climb the ladders from there.
hahahaha. Fair
Thanks! Will check it out. Appreciate the quick responses, all.
You're not really missing anything, at best you'll take a good chunk out of enemies with the regular guns when you upgrade them to high levels, but you'll never do serious or significant damage with most of them. There are exceptions though and I just made a big post about guns here on the previous page: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=157971040&postcount=16065

You can escape fairly easily. I think the area is meant to be explored later on. I was definitely too weak for it when I first ended up there.

Oh, ok, you got real players. In both modes I still got two AI NPCs, one with axe and the other with cane.

I've read that's like an end-game-ish area or something, +6 weapons recommended at least. What level are ya?
Will be going there today to make a suicide run for that armor set.
They got a lot easier once I remembered to parry their attacks - I usually start by dashing in and getting some hits until they activate that red glow effect, and then after that I hang back and parry. Seems to do the trick okay.

Two builds for PVP hopefully but I was wondering if anyone know if you can beat the hard dungeons with a level 75. Also with these builds I plan to use Holy Sword, Mercy Blades, Cannon (a nice surprise), Hunter Pistol (parrying), and two arcane spells.
Cruel Fate (10): 100
or
Cruel Fate (10): 75
It is worht those 9 extra strength my friend.

Ha I found the canon! But I'm 9 strength short of wielding it.

You say that and yet you apparently haven't encountered the squid monsters that can stun you, grab you, and steal Insight and health from you.
Yeah, there is a decent run in a late game area. U

Start at the lamp, go left up the stairs past the slug guys, kill the dude with the scythe, kill the guy in the room on the left, go out in the hallway and kill the blue-eyed werewolf (can cheese him by luring him back to the doorway, and attack him from there).
Then go out to the main area, quickly run down the stairs in a circle and bait the 3 blue-eyed werewolves to follow you back to that doorway you came from. Can also cheese these werewolves from attacking beyond the doorway. Kill those 3, run downstairs and lure the 4th one and kill it. With 200+ item discovery, they usually are decent about dropping 1 blood chunk per run, plus blood shards or twin blood stones.
If you want to farm for echos too, you can also backstop / visceral attack the squid head guys in the area too with minimal risk if you do it right, and they drop a decent amount of echos. All in all, you can do the whole run in less than 10 minutes and about 22K echos (if you have the Moon rune equipped, I have the Eye rune equipped too for additional Item Discovery). Then to finish it up I leave one of the slug guys by the lamp at the entrance alive, and I run back and let him kill me via Frenzy so that I respawn at the lamp and the enemies are reset and kill the slug to get your echos back, without having to warp out to Hunters Dream.

Where is that?
Vicar? Just stay behind her and hit her butt. She's helpless when you are directly behind her.
Yeah I got those too. Fun fun bell woman
People are scared in MP right now. First guy didn't know what to do and just rolled around while I crushed him/shot him. Second guy looked at my flaming sword and took off running before I chased him down.

Friends are trying to join my chalice dungeon but it says they don't meet the requirements. Why is that?
Sometimes you run into areas that are too hard for your level. Go to another area first and go back there later.

There's a very slight decrease per point at 25, but 26-50 still gives you a ton of stats. After 50 it drops off pretty harshly, but you'll still get small increases all the way to 99. Though you should definitely focus on other stats once you get one to 50.
The exception being Endurance which hard caps your Stamina at 40. It still gives Defense stat increases past that, but that's where you should stop with it. Getting to 50 Vitality and 40 Endurance is totally worth it, you'll be able to get a lot more swings and rolls in and you'll have a ton more hit points and you'll definitely feel the damage mitigation from the Defense stats.
They need to have unlocked the one that you're in.
I'm level 30 with a hunter axe +3 and a hunter blunderbuss +2. Makes sense that it's meant to be escaped and taken on later, since
I was forced here after dying to the meat sack dude outside the cathedral ward
Where's the armor set you're talking about?
Does it equip if you hit left on the dpad?
From cathedral area, find the blond npc, stairs near him
Press right d-pad (or is left?). Basically you can have 2 weapons equipped and switch between the two with the d-pad.
You probably have your second weapon slot active, which doesn't have another gun equipped there. From the menu you can equip two trick weapons and two firearms to swap between like that on the fly. I think it's left & right on the d-pad to swap between your alternate weapons for either hand.

Sweet that 2nd shortcut at Old Yharman couldn't of come at a better time. had 15k blood echos and did not want to lose them
Well I came here because another GAFer a few pages ago suggested, after beating BSB, I go back to the Cathedral Ward and head outside, watching out for a meat sack dude. I saw the meat sack dude, and not realizing he could one shot me, died to him. I then woke up in a prison cell in Yahar'gul rather than respawning at a lantern like usual, so I just assumed this is where I was supposed to be.
Oh yes! That shortcut will help a lot in skipping many of those bastard snakes!
I'm 10 points short. Though now that both Vit and End are at 30, gonna focus on getting strength and skill to 30.Ha I found the canon! But I'm 9 strength short of wielding it.
they may not have the certain chalice in their inventory yet.
for instance if you use a loran root chalice and they haven't gained the loran chalice yet, they can't play them.

Ending question:
Which ending is recommended for my first play through? I've heard rejecting him will get me a badge. What about true ending? I'm assuming I should go with one of those two first, but not sure which.

Can I start another character? Or is it just going to save over my old one?
Has anyone else stopped fearing about losing a lot of Blood Echos? I've noticed that even if I lose 50k (I'm like half-way? so still a decent amount), there ends up being no worry about losing them since gaining that much back is kinda easy. One thing I don't feel with this game is the sense of "oh god I need to get my souls blood echos back!" like I felt in Dark Souls 2. In DkS2, in normal NG outside of bosses every enemy dropped a small amount of souls and never increased that much over course of game. So when I lost 50k in that game, would take a long time to get those back (not to mention stupid Soul Memory limit) in NG.
In Bloodborne, even normal enemies later in game give you so many Blood Echos, that losing a bunch and then ranking them back up is just slightly inconvenient.

Thank you. This gives me guidance for many levels to come.
Where is it? I want to be prepared for it lol
yeah, you're not supposed to die to the sack dude. Being in Yahar'gul is bad juju right now

You can have multiple characters.
Yeah I know you mean. Just hit the latern and go somewhere else. Probably a couple bosses to beat before you head back there, unless you wanna farm twin blood shards.
Third ending! Google the secret end. I'd suggest it.
Or all 3 via save scum for the trophies
