Do the chalice dungeons start giving more unique loot later on? Finished a couple and while its a neat idea, I feel like all the chests have just contained stuff for getting to higher chalices.
Pretty neat how there are different enemies in the mode though. I should have been trying them while playing through the game normally, since im at the end now and am kind of just wanting to beat the final boss.
Does new game plus affect chalice stuff?

Really don't want to farm earlier Chalice Dugeons to unlock the later onesThey were boring going through once. Really should have done them early on.
They don't scale so I guess listen to a podcast and just rush through them.
Well there isn't a consensus really yet, although most believe 100 is too low, so the push is more towards SL120. That will allow people to have multiple stats at 40+. Possible build is 50 vitality, 50 strength (or skill), 20-30 endurance (use rune of 15-20% stamina to make up for the fact that you didn't go to 40). High vitality is essential because you have a 30% Health penalty when you invade. Plus, high vitality is essential in a certain chalice dungeon.
Consuming two doesn't change anything, 3 of the 4 possible cords are needed. The true ending has an extra boss. The giant spider doesn't drop one of the cord pieces.

Nope, all chalices stay the same, no increase in difficulty.

3 of the 4? So if I missed the one from the girl in the clinic I can still get a 3rd one? Have the hunters dream and margo ones.
Ok cheers sounds like a plan

Well nevermind, now my fast-quote window is back... but only if I go back several pages. :S Weird.
Just like to take my time is all. I've been doing some chalice dungeons but getting a bit bored, you can tell the intricate From level design is not there. Though I've only done the Pthumeru ones, maybe the other chalices have different tilesets that will offer some fresh change?
The only non-Chalice thing I have left, that I can find, is (4th headstone)
I'm guessing I'm pretty close to the end, right?
For some reason, I find the second spoiler part to be really funny.
Them students always stoned, of course!
Hey, I'm getting there!70% of people have gotten the Cleric Beast trophy. A total of 10% have gotten one of the ending trophies. :lol
Come on people! You started it, you can finish it

Margo something, whatever is after what's-his-face Usain Bolt who cried about me waking him up.

Root dungeons randomize the layout and loot; you can get some Uncanny and Lost versions of weapons (different blood gem slots) and some rare blood gems and crafting materials. The Depth level of a chalice dungeon is its difficulty, past depth 3 is when things get pretty tough.
And guys, a beginner's guide was added to the OP a few days ago. Check it out!
One of the trick weapons can only be found in a high chalice dungeon.

I'm not a big fan of Chalice dungeons myself. I think it'd take something pretty special to make them fit into the FromSoft design. I have barely touched it, yet I've played through the main story with 5 different characters already. And yeah, you're very close to the end of the main story, but there might be a bit of optional stuff you haven't done.
Yep. If you kept Arianna alive, after killing Mergo she'll give birth to a baby monster in the basement of the chapel. Kill it and you'll get the 3rd chord.

Thanks, I was just answering his question if NG+ affects Chalice dungeons, which I believe they do not.

Man, Abhorrent Beast is a straight up psycho. It's basically Father G's
Barely any time to get hits in since its swinging all day.
If you're spoiler tagging the final boss at least give people a hint what they're gonna be highlighting. That could be literally any boss in the game.
beast form with a ton of health that can't be parried.

Filled my 2 boss quota for the day,
. Definitely feel like this game would reward builds that spread their points a little more, my Strength focused build isn't giving much returns, meanwhile all these arcane items look really good and a mixture of both would probably be a better PvE build.
This game's environments are much better in the later half, makes up for the dull first half of the game.
Next run through I think I'll do Arcane/Skill.
Heard insight makes the game harder, sitting on over 60, don't gif a fuk. Wondering if it makes enemies hit harder or have higher healthbars, seems to be a big mystery. Most people say it adds new movesets but it's hard to tell the first time through.
Rom and Logarius down. Logarius was pretty hard, Rom wasn't that bad, just irritating to finish him off

Thanks for the reply. That is unfortunate!
That's correct. I destroyed my chalice dungeon before realizing that. Luckily, you can search for other's dungeons of the same type and it doesn't cost you any components as long as you have unlocked that dungeon type once. Root dungeons are randomized variants. You need to redo depth 2 difficulty dungeons to get blood ritual type 3 for example.
Yes! Finished off Amy in the Defiled Chalice
Grats, the rest is easy :3

Or people are just taking their time with the game.
I don't have countless hours in my day to play the game, so I get home from work, play for maybe an hour or two if I can, then do other stuff. I play a lot more on the weekends, but I'm usually spending time with my wife. More people will beat the game eventually.
Yes, PHYS atk only affects physical damage, ATK will affect the other damage types (arcane, blood, fire, bolt) as well as physical
Most people don't want to help with trash mobs. So, they ring their bell before bosses.

Physical attack is attack with weapons, while atk up is physical, blood and arcane, fire, and bolt.
Use a Hunter's Mark to go back to the lamp and leave.

If I add an attack type like arcane or fire to a weapon does that remove my normal bonuses? They seem to disappear.

It just takes me back to the beginning of the area.

I've been meaning to ask this. So is this section like the Painted World of Ariamis? Are there any like that in the game?
There should be a lamp.
I'll go for 120 myself.
If they latter decide to cap it at 100 I'll do another character, but I like 120 more.

Confused. How are you trapped? There's a lantern right at the beginning.
By the end of the game, you'll probably want to get your insight really low to reduce frenzy damage. Well I didn't try high insight plus +300 frenzy resist runes (+200 frenzy, +100 all), so the resist runes might be enough to compensate if your insight really high?
Cainhurst Castle is an optional area like Painted World.
