That moment when you see the boss design and go OH SHIT is such a panic moment, and then the boss music starts and it's just amazing.

Go for C

Edit: stupid, I didn't read you already fought WoH. Go for FW, at least in terms of progression.

Father G's set is great against poison, and he's also really weak to fire if you want to throw some oil urns and then some molotovs at him.
Of course, staying close and taking advantage of those i-frames is a great strategy too, though can be tougher.
Worked for me! I just went ham on him and dodged his swipes. Didn't get poisoned and oneshot him doing that. He is really not that scary close up.
it's being released in april, right?

No need to fall down anywhere to continue, although....i know on the opposite end of the ladder you can fall down, but Im pretty sure that didnt lead me anywhere.
Will check it out againThanks dude
that's all I'll say hahaIt's just replenishing your bullets from your storage, so you're just selling the bullets that are in your storage.

Are you sure you're just not replenishing the bullets from your stash?
Oh I see! I must have loads. Thanks.
Yeah you can hold up to 99 in your storage.

BSB was interesting. Took a bunch of goes, but I found he kinda of flips the script when he enrages and what works the first half of the fight will get you killed the second. The 1st half is best to bait out his leaping attack and dodging STRAIGHT back where you should end up in range for a pretty safe 2 hits and dodge back out. 2nd half, dodging straight back will get you killed quick because of his added range and overall aggro. So best to do the opposite, and dodge in behind him when he goes to strike. With luck he'll go crazy and throw his 4 -5 hit combo while you're behind him smacking him. Can usually get 2 or 3 safe hits. As for the last phase
poison
I would steer clear of official guides. Something that I learned about the soul games the hard way was that they update the "rules" alot through the lifetime of one title. At least in terms of weapon damage calculation and bosses.
Official guides become useless after a few patches imo. Just wiki it.

I am gonna try getting up close and personal with him. I am 18/18/18 Vitality/Endurance/Strength with Axe+3 as my main and Pistol+3 at my off-hand... it should be enough to deal with him........ urggghhhhhhhh hopefully I don't need to fight him for like one hundred times....
People always put warning notes beforehand though. I bailed the fuck out the first time outside the VA's door because there's a "Strong Foe Ahead" note in front of it and I am carrying lots of Echoes I don't want to lose, lol.

Ah, are you talking about the area where
it finally opens up before the boss with all of the dogs and axe guys?

No, sorry, I just didn't read that you cleared that zone. I say you should clear
FW or the Clinic

Awesome, thanks! Yeah I'll just plan on clearing

I like the fextralife wiki, but a lot of details there still need filling in.
Like all FROM games it has its flaws. However, all those flaws appear completly insignificant when compared to how well this game pulls off what it tries to do.
FROMs A-Team doesn't even have competition when it comes to world building - thats how good they are. Combat is sublime in BB and encounter design is absolutly fantastic. Art direction and atmosphere are stronger than ever. There truly is a lot to like about this game.

Also, if you didn't know, he can be parried with the pistol. When he does his bunch of small swipes into the large wind up, if you shoot him during the wind up you can actually hit him with a visceral attack.

You need to have at least 1 insight for the Doll in the dream to wake up. She's the one doing your level-up.
Get it by meeting up with Cleric Beast seems to be the most straight-forward way. Although there's also a Madman-thingie that you can ingest located somewhere not too far from it (IIRC) around to get Insight.
I know he can be parried; in fact I managed to parry him once or twice... by luck though, ahahaha.
Interesting to note, it seems you can also get bosses into a a visceral-able state by throwing molotovs at them. Well, at least it worked during my fight with VA, although she still kicked my arse in the end, hahaha.

Where those 2 giant dudes are stomping around in the graveyard, all the way at the bottom of the steps from Amelia. Theres a path to the right if you're coming down the steps. Go through there and should be obvious.
Oh and have fun in the next area!
As for the whats down the other path? You'll end up there soon enough.....

Well with VA attacking her legs enough will bring her down for a visceral attack so I don't know if molotovs work on all bosses, but she is weak to fire so it could make sense
Just buy junk in the insight store in the hunter's dream.
Screw stats, I must have it. Is it unlocked during normal progress of the game, or is it hidden away somewhere?
There's one thing that I'm specifically disappointed about my favorite bosses (which I will list now):
Pretty much every single melee attack is parryable. Which, while it is skill-intensive, makes the fights really unexciting and just sort of boring when you get that down.
They are incredibly fun fights and they are so because of how the bosses space you out or their mobility (usually a combo of both). That's what made the best fights in Demon's Souls the best fights. But being able to parry your way through the fight is why Gwyn ended up being sort of... not great in hindsight. He becomes pitifully easy because of how easy it is to parry and generally that is the case with Bloodborne, too.
I would have hoped they'd fix that kind of mistake and only make certain moves parryable.

There's a fountain in the Hunter's Dream if you go inside and out the left door that lets you buy stuff with insight. I just bought a bunch of stuff I probably won't need to drop it.

It's pretty hidden.
I think it is kinda unfair to just talk about the big boss fights in this game when some of the real stars are the Hunter fights. There is so much good to be said about how real these fights feel. Some of them act in ways they might as well be other human controlled Hunters.

I personally never sell anything in these kind of games.
No need to fall down anywhere to continue, although....
smh,
cant believe i missed that passage way

Then don't parry. I've played the entire game without really using parrys except for when I killed
Martyr Longarius.
Never even thought to cheese that fight. I know what i am doing when i get home.
Don't we have a sales thread for this already?
I don't think that's a very good argument. Parrying is a whole hand of your character but it's been something *too* effective in Bloodborne.

I would enjoy them a lot more if most of them weren't so ridiculously bulky.
