you sure your insight wasn't super high? If so then good news for me I guess.
he used melee all the time as long as I kept close
Praise Ludwig's sword. At first I didn't like it because it was much slower then my inital starter Saw Blade that I swore by, but I forced myself to make the switch because the damn thing cost me 20k and this 2H option is way to awesome. Stunning enemies and massive damage is where it's at.
The game is bugged - all three of the last bosses I've faced have either not moved onto stage 2 of the fight (i.e. getting more powerful/aggressive once they're at 30 or 40% health). I managed to abuse a few by baiting out the same counter-able attack out of what are supposedly super hard fights. The boss never deviated from the routine and I just rinsed and repeated until I killed them purely through viscerals.
Nope!
I do wish they had taken just a few things from dark souls 2. Like just 1 respec would have been nice.
I also miss bonfire ascetics

I'm trying to cheese/kill
How do I make it switch to two hand so it can hurt itself?
the hunter in the grand cathedral.
My insight was like 12 or something. You guys had bugged encounter. His moves:
-Flying Divebomb
-Powerup that makes him immune to backstabs and stagger
-Stabs something in ground, shoots out crap everywhere until you destroy it.
-Big explody skull
-Line of skulls
-That 3 hit melee attack
-That big huge swirly skulls of death
-That aoe explosion
Not to mention 2 phases.

Easily the hardest boss in the game so far.
Yeah, she is in the chapel right now. I'm basically just thinking of where to go next. I just beat the

Yep, roll or run in different directions. If you run in the same direction it will guess your pattern so be very random when you dodge or run. (ie: Left/right left/right or serpentine pattern or something)

alright, i think i have 3 areas i can go to now, not sure which one to do first
stuff i've done, in order:
i also have
the last one sounds like where i need to go. also, i stupidly used the bell to try to get summoned for
even though i'm fully aware of the progression bug, so i don't know if that's going to affect me or not since i already beat the boss
stuff i've done, in order:
cleric beast, father g, BSB, darkbeast paarl, amelia, shadow of yharnam, witch of hemwick
i also have
cainhurst summons but i didn't see any carriage or whatever in hemwick lane, and a guy gave me an item that i need to take to the area to the right of the cathedral. or i can go to byrgenwerth
the last one sounds like where i need to go. also, i stupidly used the bell to try to get summoned for
shadow of yharnam
Yeah that hunter was a huge pain in the ass
Difficulty on that fight does not determine if ur ready for the area
However if u continue on in that area a lot of stuff in the main world will change so u may want to go to other areas first anyway
There is a ladder that goes from the floor you need to go down to the one where you were, so look in every room for a ladder going up basically
For some reason I spawned in the second floor already, so I actually missed frontier until I went back there and check that ladder
For all the sh*t that DkS2 gets about being 'B Team', they actually did a lot of stuff better.
1) Showing a picture next to a warp zone's name (we have three on the first tombstone with variations of church/cathedral etc. Shit is confusing yo).
2) Allowing for a respec - it's an RPG, you never know what you like until you've been using it for ages. I wasted some points in arcane just to try the spells I got and was totally unimpressed. Regret that a bit now.
3) Bosses may not have been as memorable as BB or DkS1 but at least they always used their entire move-set. Massive AI glitches in this game.
4) More variety in the environments (although nowhere near as intricately designed).
5) Matchmaking that actually worked properly on launch, the first for a Souls game (and only one so far).
6) Easier comparison of stats in vendors between your equipped armour/weapons.
7) DkS2 didn't force you into NG+ straight away in case you wanted to go back and finish up odds and ends.
Ok I am really confused and I'm not sure if I experienced a glitch or not. I don't know where to go next in my game to progress the story. Please help.
EDIT2: was the teleport that I described above what is normally supposed to happen?
EDIT:
Oh OK I will go look for that now. lol
So I defeated Rom, and then I saw a scene and then I teleported to (Unseen village?) a big round tall room, and then I got killed by a big spider thing (I think it was "The One Reborn") that was hiding above me. And then I revived in the lecture hall. And then I went to the nightmare frontier and killed the boss. And now I am in Hunter's dream and I can teleport to the lecture Building and I can teleport to the nightmare frontier but I can't teleport to the Unseen village (it wont allow me) and I don't know how to get to the second floor of the lecture Building (if that
is what I am supposed to do).
is what I am supposed to do).

He DEFINITELY bugs out.
On my 2nd playthrough with a new char now and my first time around he never did any spells except the skull bolts and the flowing orb. This time around hes fucking insane. Tons of magic, a different mechanic, everything. This isn't NG+ this is just a straight up new game.

Taking a break from pve. Been doing alot of invading. Forbidden Forest is the perfect invasion map. Tons of traps at my disposal. There's been quite a few times where I was out numbered 3 to 1. Made use of all the traps and mob ambushes I could.

Feels good to win when the odds are against you.

My version was exactly like this except he stop using magic after I got him down to a certain amount and started using the moves that I bolded
U need to go back to the room where u got grabbed and continue through that doorway to the unseen village
It is to the right of vicar Amelia area when u are on ur way up the stairs past a big church with two hunters in front of it and down a ways
Just don't get grabbed again

So I ended up in the Hypogean Gaol earlier in the game after a Snatcher killed me. Upon leaving the place I ran into Dark
and got wiped out. Anyways I'm now level 55, went back to fight him and damn, he's such a pushover, despite his awesomely imposing looks.
I even think that, had I gone back straight away after my first encounter with him before when I was much lower level, I could have still killed him with ease. Not sure if it was because I was using Kirkhammer+5 (w/ Bolt Paper buff) but he barely got a chance to stand up. Pretty sure I stunned the poor guy 3 times in a row with the hammer mode activated. Even his patterns are quite easy to deal with and he leaves himself open quite often, especially if you stay underneath him.
Fun fight, though. Man, this game. THIS GAME!

Wow. Got him on my first try. I thought he was a pretty stupid boss. I usually just ran towards him when he shot projectiles and rolled at the last second. Dodged most of them that way.
Hrm. From what I understand, that's the area where you fight
Rom.

Just beat the Cleric Beast on my first attempt. 
Hard? Whatevs.

I know I'll get my ass kicked later...
Enjoy the nightmare fuel that is the run to the actual necessary boss in that area.
what's a good level to invade at forbidden? I was trying to invade around there at level 60, and figured maybe my level was too high because I couldn't get any invasions.

I am feeling physically ill by the prospect of fighting Blood Starved Beast again T___T
Especially after I ran out of Fire Paper.................................
And I am level 30-ish too, should be enough, I think, but I just............ hate everything about this fight... especially the poison and how he can pretty much decimate me even from full health once he grabbed me due to that poison BS......................... URGH.

Ok so I have a few fire/bolt "bloodgems", but I have no idea how to make them work because they don't scale for FUCK with STR or SKILL. Whats the point of them? Like I made my Luciens sword FIRE but it was garbage compred to my Kirkhammer that was all STR. How do we get Fire weps to be good?

I'm level 48 and invade non stop. Been invading for the past 4 hours now. My down time between invasions is usually less than a minute.
Ok thanks! I am not sure how to find it. I will look though.

Once you applied elemental effects on your weapons, I think they all scale using Arcane instead, so if your Arcane sucks, well they're gonna be suck too. I think.
There are runes for it just not very many
It's no rune slot, it's for the covenants.
Oh, really? Didn't know that.
