What do you mean soft cap?
Upto the soft cap, you get the most bonus from lvling that stat. From soft to hard cap, the amount is less. From hard cap and on, you barely get any.

You know I wouldn't mind Hunter fights if they shared the same rule set as us, like having a limited amount of bullets.

Tips!
Shortcut: There is an elevator you can take from the bottom level to the top near the Unseen Village latern. To find the elevator, go out from the Hypogean Gaol lantern (when it was there), take the door outside and go left when you reach the road area and look around. You'll find it there, I believe. The elevator goes from bottom to top, but there's a middle landing you can walk out onto. It drops you off on a roof. There are two dogs you must kill, then you're right in front of the portal. Use portal, go up the stairs, across the bridge, kill the bell bitch, kill her minion, take the stairs and then sprint. You won't have blood flying at you that way.
To kill the One Reborn, focus on its back legs, and never its front, until you've got it staggered. Watch for the red glow appearing on the back legs, and roll away when you see it. When she's staggered, go round to the front and shred up the head a bit. Always be watching for raining body parts. If you use this strategy the fight isn't too bad. If you have a +6 or above weapon you'll be a-ok, just need to focus on the right parts
Oh and of course kill the bell bitches on the 2nd floor.

From my souls experience,
if something seems too rough, just fucking book it and zigzag all over the place lol. Yeah this area is rough, but luckily I found a new lantern!
yeah, tbh, it only took me about four attempts playing it conservatively, it is frustrating when you get it down to like 30% after playing it slow then get one shot :/
I just stay far out of it's reach, hitting it's arms and sometimes it's head when it flailed about, always rolling unlocked
once it ripped it's arms off I just attacked it's legs/spine/tail thing constantly staying right next to it/under it (1-2 hits then it would jump, it will jump around a lot but never came close to hitting me, just roll when it does, takes a while since at +10 I was doing like 166 damage with two hit combos on it's legs, but it's safe) use bolt paper to speed things up slightly, but that's obvious.

Posted in the wrong Bloodborne thread. Here it is.
Went to the Nightmare Frontier, someone invades me. I don't feel like dealing with it so I run back to the lamp. Lamp doesn't let me teleport. So I say F it and get ready. Here is what happens. 2 minutes long.

Any reason why I didn't take any damage?

Ehh there is really only 1 truly bad area in the game design wise. The area You are hating is actually a favorite for many, it's level design is actually great and packed with smart shortcuts.
Nevermind done!

I thought that area was fine. Took a bit of time, but the shortcuts there are probably some of my favorites so far. Very well placed and made the run back to the boss (even though I beat it on my first try) more bearable.

It was another blight town for me. I got both shortcuts and didn't actually die but it did take me ages.
The level design was awful for me. Way too many similar looking areas.
I've enjoyed most of the areas until this part.
I think the main problem with the Woods was the amount of enemies for the size. Too many.
WHAT THE HELL IS. WHY AM I IN AYARGHUL. I'm afraid to go outside.JAIL CELL
It's where cocky people go when they underestimate slow enemies!
Wait which shortcuts did you get? There are 3 there with one being pretty close to the boss.
Thanks. I'll try again later today -- I think where I messed up big was when it ripped its arm -- I didn't get more aggressive and paid for it.
Alright, have all bosses beaten except for the last boss
. Loving this game, though it's noticeably more content-starved than the previous games. Doesn't bother me that much since the core gameplay is fantastic. The Lecture Building is the most drab, boring area in the game by far; didn't mind any of the other areas at all; even loved Forbidden Woods. (late game spoiler)
I believe I have all the items I am able to get in my NG run, but I'm conflicted if I should do Chalice Dungeons now or warp into NG+.
When starting NG+, do you retain all your Chalices and/or materials? Will you be able to generate Chalices immediately in NG+? What happens with any of your progress in a Dungeon after starting NG+?
or two ...
...Didn't like the fact that Shadows of Yharnam became regular enemies in Mensis, hate that kind of stuff in games.

God damn, perfectly summed up, haha.
But going there has certainly helped level my guy at an amazing rate.
I actually liked how large Forbidden Woods felt. My issue is that area was super buggy. If you try and do coop the framerate goes absolutely crazy at times and crazy stuff like the floor in the shortcut room wouldn't render at times or the elevator just straight up wouldn't work.
Interesting. That explains why it wasn't giving me as much as before recently.
So is it best to focus on other stats after you've reached the soft cap?

It's a really
easy section full of extremely friendly monsters who all just want a hug real bad. Don't you go and disappoint them now.
I call it cuddlesville due to the friendly atmosphere and lovable inhabitants

The thing about the games is that, for the most part, they are just a fair challenge. They aren't like oober cheap reflex-heavy things most of the time. You just need to pay attention, focus, and play smart.
There are some bosses which border on cheap, but usually when you think it's cheap, you're actually just missing some key strategy/approach.
I just played really conservatively, stayed far away until he did that attack where he jumps in the air and comes at you -- roll right when he hits the ground and you'll be able to get in 2 or 3 attacks no problem.
When he uses his sword in the ground attack, take it out. Other than that, no risks.

Any tips for the
? I keep taking down the one shooting fireballs, then the other two wreck me.

First one, gate in the house.
Next one, door which leads back to the first Lantern.
Final one, elevator from the big building which goes down.
It's academic really because I didn't die in the area or go back.
I had 80k souls on me when I fought the bossed because I thought I might get lost if I went back.
if it's not working for you, take out the other two guys first. worked for me.
Try to position yourself behind the large grave stone thing and the fire guy, then you can kind of handle the two others in peace for a bit, cuz the fire guy will be busy shooting the grave.

Equip axe in 2 hands
Add bolt paper
Stand behind the big Rock/stone thing.
Do the double spin and use that to pick them off one at a time.
Do laps and heal behind things when you are hurt.
Don't try to take him on when he does the fast slashes. For the last 50 % you want to just run away from him until he does that aerial attack. It's pretty easy to dodge, and you can get a couple of hits on him afterwards. After that run away again, rinse and repeat. He will almost always do that aerial attack if you run away from him.
Nothing cuddly about these fuckers at all! I just had to lure them to the stairs to cheese them because they do 3/4 of my health in one attack. WHAT THE FUCK.

Use the large tombstone to split the last two of them up for a few seconds. Get a few hits in, retreat. On their own, they are pushovers.

Fireball -> Katana -> Firebreather is my recommended order. Bolt paper works great and keeping all three in your camera is the most important thing you can do. Also, I believe you can parry the katana guy.
I switched to a
faster weapon and it seemed to help a lot (used single handed ludwig's blade with bolt paper). Go for the fireball guy first then use the big gravestone to help separate the flame sword guy from the other one. take down none flame dude then if you're lucky the last guys AI will glitch causing him to strafe in a circle without attacking. I've seen it happen a few times now.

Alright, I've been trying to play through the first time without any help, so I haven't been reading the thread, but I think I need a hint. I have beaten six bosses,
I'm pretty sure the next place I need to go is
Can someone give me a nudge in the right direction? Maybe which lantern I should start my search from? Thanks!
Father G, Vicar Amelia, Cleric Breast, Blood-starved Beast, Witch of Hendrick, and Darkbeast Paal.
Byrgenworth, which is allegedly in a twisted forest, so I've been searching Hemwick Lane but with no luck.
