lmao, my little brother started Bloodborne this morning and already beat the first two bosses. He soloed Cleric Beast on his third try and co-oped father G. The funny part is that he's only nine. He died a bunch though getting there though, but still.

Some kids are scary good at video games. :O
 
Hemwick Charnel Lane
is such a good place to farm blood echos right now.
I'm 51 and a quick run there is enough for 1 level.
 
Err, i've only seen the one vendor at the fountain. I'm in
Old Yharnam trying to deal with the dude on the gatling gun.
Am I not far enough in the game?

You only need to have 10 insight to visit the insight vendor. It's just tricky to find it.

1) From where you spawn in Hunter's Dream, go up the stairs into the house
2) take an immediate left and go through the doorway
3) after going through the doorway, look directly to your left

It's a fountain, just like the item vendor fountain.
 
Man, the first time around I completely missed the Eileen storyline, and now in New Game Plus I can't trigger her second encounter at Cathedral Ward. Beat Cleric and Father G, opened gate to Amelia, nothing, she is not anywhere.

is great. I'm 70+ now.

Just wait till you get to the chalice areas, I'll give you a password for a spot that got me 500k in 20m (107 now)

Speaking of chalice dungeons.

MY GOD

WAS DEFILED CHALICE INVENTED BY A SADIST?

If you guys haven't try out Defiled Chalice dungeon run yet, you should ask if Soulflarz is having fun or not.

Hes knows my pain.
 
It is like Strength, but for elemental damage scaling. Note, it doesnt effect fire buffs, but if a weapon does an elemental damage it will scale with that.
So I basically shouldn't care about it at this stage in terms of attire if I dont have any weapons which have elemental damage?

Picked up hunter gear (currently wearing Yharnam hunter gear) and the distinctive difference is mainly the arcane stats.

Head back to Father G's lamp.
 
I am having the absolute hardest time trying to beat Father Gascoigne. I can easily deal with the human form but once he turns into the beast I completely fall apart. I even get so close to beating him with maybe just a sliver of health remaining on his heath bar. He then proceeds to tear me apart and I simply cannot heal fast enough. It is starting to drive me insane because I have such an easy time getting him to that part. I don't even need to use the tiny music box or anything. Any tips with dealing with the "beast mode"?
 
find the entrance into losefka's clinic and you'll find a cainhurst summons item. Then go to hernwick lane and approach the weird post/spire thing in the middle of the field with the two axe marauder dudes

Thanks, by the entrance do you mean the
Shortcut from the lost woods poison underground area with the worms and giants? Because I went back there to check on Gilbert who, apparently had become a beast. Which was sad. Then I went to Iosefka's Clinic and her door doesn't have a prompt anymore to talk or whatever. Is there another way in?
 
Haven't been putting anything into blood tinge or arcane. Is this a mistake for late game builds?

I blew through the whole game with very few deaths, and I only leveled up Vitality, Endurance, and Strength. Also, I never used anything but the short version of the saw cleaver, and I never changed from the armor I got like an hour into the game.
 
So does suspend/resume muck up the online?

Sleep mode last night, started up this morning. I couldn't summon anyone, nor would I get summoned for like 3 hours. Restarted the PS4 and it started working immediately.

:/
 
Anyone feel like there's a lot less memorable bosses in this than in previous games? We don't really have a new Ornstein/Smough for fanart and worst of all no new Gwynevere.

i could see Amelia getting some fanart but aside from that everything seems super generic

Use the music box when he is in Beastmode, it will stagger him for like 5 seconds. Go behind, do an R2 charged attach followed by a visceral. If he isnt dead by then, throw a molotov cocktail and he will be.

Yeah, it disconnects you from the server without really telling you and for some reason logging out and back in doesn't fix it until you reboot.
 
The
cannon-toting
ones who stand around in the poison swamps are the biggest assholes I've seen in this game so far

Was in that area before, had no idea what he was about to do and boom 90% of my health gone. Fucker has the cheek to try an AOE with that shit as well if you get close.

Just beat the lower Pthumeru Giant with no damage :) I'll have to upload the vid.

I feel like there were a lot of downgrades. Honestly, I think there will be more blowback to Bloodborne than there was to DS2.

- fewer stats
- fewer potential character builds
- every armor set you find is worse than the last
- no magic
- 90% of the game takes place in Gothic towns (what are there, like 4 cathedrals/chapels?)
- few memorable locations
- most of the bosses are very same-y
- shorter than previous games
- the whole loading thing and all its repercussions
- the whole game is a maze (not EVERYTHING needs to be interconnected. It's just confusing)
- grinding for vials sucks

On the other hand, the moment-to-moment combat is easily the best in the series

is great. I'm 70+ now.

realized I was underleveled for some of the late game optional bosses and later challice dungeons at lvl 55, spent an hour there last night and got to lvl 80 and bought all the expensive equipment. It's good because I 1 shot the enemies so I watched ENB's playthrough at the same time. :D

I thought we were off to a great start but yeah, still feel like the best came early on, later bosses were kinda eh. Really, really disappointed with the NPC's in this game though.

I kept doing that hoping it would unlock somethign where you get it, and he actually switches the arm position making the L the other way after a while lol.
