Ludwigs holy blade is so gud. What a great weapon.

I can't wait to use it! I just got the mark that opens up the option to purchase Ludwig's Holy Blade. Next step is to farm the blood echoes needed to purchase it. I also need 1 more point in Strength it looks like. I have been putting all my points in skill instead since I have been using the Threaded Cane which is an awesome weapon too.

After the first boss in nightmare of menis, go back the start of the fight and use the key you can find in the same area. Bring sedatives.

 

[Chiggs]

Haven't seen many people mention this, I feel like the game has really good AI. Well specifically the hunters and a few of the boss fights. They can feel very similarl to fighting real players sometimes

I've cheesed pretty much all of them, but I certainly agree.

 

[razgriz417]

he needs to be in dungeon use a small bell and you need to use bell of reckoning in the dungeon to summon him.

Does he have to be in the same exact chalice dungeon or just a chalice dungeon?

 

[AlexIIDX]

Thanks guys.

 

[Nardonicus]

So I've read Vicar Amelia is a extremely hard boss. What is the recommended level to fight her. I think I'm in the mid ~20, I have fortified my weapon 3 times and have two gems equipping it. Should I avoid her for now?

I think I beat her in the high 20's.

Fight her a few times without burning any blood vials just to get used to her attack timings. Then when you are ready for the real deal, use fire paper on your weapon to fuck her up. The fire does a lot more damage.

 

[Laurentius]

I don't see what the hype is about this. Thing swings too damn slow.

I still haven't found a weapon better than the starting axe. :/

Slow weapons can be some of the most fun once you learn how to do them. It really forces you to be extremely careful with your timing, which makes it really rewarding when you land a massive hit.

Nah, it was on the wiki for Caryll runes

[tearsintherain]

I accidently aggro'd Emelie and even quickly restarting BB wouldn't undo that state, so ended up killing her after a bunch of tries and a lot of luck.

Was going to buy the crowfeather armor from the vendor but... it seems worse than the Yharnam Hunter set you can buy for a like 3000 echo total? Only one or two minor stats are higher, and the rest are all lower. AFAIK armor can't be improved and doesn't level up as you level up, so am I missing something or is crowfeather just for looks?

One of the big downfalls of this game is most armor is pretty much all the same, just with stats slightly altered here and there. Might as well wear what looks good.

There's an alternate route that is much easier actually.

Spoiler

Using the shortcut cage with the door ripped open, there's a window you can go in as it raises. This leads down a path with a few frenzy inducing enemies, but once you get past them there's a lever that drop the main threat. I opened the iron door from the other end actually, lol.

 

[Tunic]

Nah. You can get a better set for free after you beat the third boss.

Where do you get this set of armor after the third boss?

I found this hilarious the first time I saw it, but the more I look at it... the more I get legit scared

A maxed out repeater pistol is pretty decent, but yeah...I agree.

Those are the attack stats for the weapons you have equipped in slot 1 and slot 2. Maybe the weapon in slot 2 hasn't been upgraded as much or doesn't scale well with your stats?

Where do you get this set of armor after the third boss?

Spoiler

Get killed by a guy holding a sack to reach the Unsee Village. From there go up to the top floor, run outside, and head right. After killing a pig the set will be found on some dead bodies down the hill. If you explore this area you can open up a shortcut skipping what has so far been the hardest section of the game for me later on in the game.

Thanks! I know exactly where you're talking about. I didn't go in there at the time because it seemed ominous and I didn't want to die. Hah.

Aren''t guns meant for stagger and nothing else? It's like having a shield from Souls game that can only be used to parry.

Kill the women ringing the bells. Honestly I just recommend for you to run through ignoring the enemies.

Look for the women ringing bells. They're typically hidden/behind the hordes--killing them also makes the enemies around them much weaker.

Ultimately I'd say so, but it feels like a bunch of guns are redundant as you might as well use the fastest firing one.

I thought he was rather boring and easy. You didn't try and fight his minions did you?

 

[XxRampage07xX]

I don't see what the hype is about this. Thing swings too damn slow.

I still haven't found a weapon better than the starting axe. :/

In sword form, it has more damage output and speed than the hand axe.

In greatsword form, it has slower speed than the axe, yet better damage output.

I have to agree R2 attack of Ludwig Greatsword is pretty bad though. The damage output isn't worth the charging time at all.

 

[GulAtiCa]

Aren''t guns meant for stagger and nothing else? It's like having a shield from Souls game that can only be used to parry.

Well yeah, but issue is that NPC Hunters have guns that do way too much damage... Not to mention the infinite stamina and unlimited ammo. Really unfair and I don't like those fights much, esp when they constantly heal (at least those that do).

 

[LiK]

NPC hunters especially in later areas are fucking assholes. So glad they don't respawn.

Yeah, she's not there for me either. Just beat Rom and went there because I want her armor but she wasn't laying outside the grand cathedral.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. I don't know why, but he was just so hard for me. Only boss that took me more than four tries.
