Im stuck on R
om
, how the fuck do I dodge those fucking ice crystals

When he fires the things, do a sharp 90 degree turn. I like to go perpendicular around him, and when he fires those directly turn to him. That way they miss (since they go 1 direction.)
 
Almost killed Ebreitas on my 1st try solo! T-T
But at the end he threw me a lazer beam, that killed me right away.

Looking for co-op, if someone is interested PM me on PSN: Kssio_Aug. I can help too.
I'll be back to the game in 30 minutes.
 
I just got back from a BB lan.. I am complety gfucked in the head, I amm done with this gamd until much further

Lager i will play darksouls2 ps4
 
Anyone free to give me a hand with BSB? I've range my bell, but no one stepping forward. Im lvl 32...

If you're having trouble and can't get the bell to work, head back to the stair case (the stone on e that you walk down right before BSB) and turn to your right. There are some messengers sitting there that offer you help. If you ring your bell there, an npc (A
lbert
maybe? cant remember his name) appears to help you.
 
120+



layer 3 has a few enemies that constantly give me 30k echoes per run so yea, easy leveling area.
Ouch. Guess I'll go fight V
icar
A
melia
. If PvP will be around 120 does that mean you have to pick between chalice dungeons and PvP?
 
I'm desperate here, are there any cheesing strats for the S
hadows
of Y
arham
fight?
I can just about handle it until the snakes come out of the ground, then it becomes a clusterfuck and no amount of dodging can save me.
 
I desperately need tips for Martyr

Just try to get some hits during the first part of the fight while he uses magic, that's the hardest part.

Once he goes to the next phase he will start using a lot more melee and you can parry him easily.
 
sprint perpendicular to where he is facing, then as the start coming down turn towards him

Don't forget to throw some salt over your shoulder as you do it, shout 3 Hail Marys and check that there's a lunar eclipse scheduled for the third day of the fourth month.

Some combination of the above may allow you to dodge his magic missiles. Or maybe not. Who knows. That sh*t is random as f*ck.
 
Do we know what insight does yet? I mean beyond speculation? I read it makes the game harder so I'm tempted to lower mine, but those vendors who accept insight are fucking useless. They have nothing worth buying.

what I said works every time, even the user right below me said the same thing
 
Im stuck on Rom, how the fuck do I dodge those fucking ice crystals

For that fight I did not use lock on, I did not fight the small spiders.
When he fired the ice crystals I ran up close to him and and stayed close to his tail.
Always using his body as a barrier between me and the spiders.
bashed him with the axe, run through the mob, circle him then change directions then run though the mob towards him again.
Just watch out for when he rolls over and slams.

Bullets don't work on him in second phase

If he starts using his wide skull magic keep dodging to the side. Try to stick to melee range on him. He takes wide swings to your left, dodge into them and you shouldn't get hit. Not sure if it's always like this but his single skull explosion thing always seemed to appear from the right.

It makes the game "harder" by giving one type of enemy a buff (the big guys with the gray clothing and big wide brimmed hats), but they're still pretty trivial to deal with and I'm not sure it actually changes anything of note besides them.

It also lets you hear some more dialog and see the
big cthulu spiders(but they were always there anyways and doesn't really change them).

Not really a cheese strat, but I focused on them one at a time, starting with the melee/sword guy. Move behind the giant gravestone on the right to get cover from the magic projectiles while you're fighting.
After killing him I went after the candle guy. You can interrupt him as he lights his sword on fire to prevent that but I beat him anyway. Then finally the magic guy who's easy to beat in his final phase..

Any hunter you kill, the armor they wore shows up there. Also get Tomb armor in there along with other sets.

At points you will be able to buy Fire / Bolt paper from that vendor with insight also.

I stock up on Bolt / Fire paper. Love that shit.

That shop is definitely not worthless. More items are unlocked for purchase as you progress.

Do you have the hunter's axe? Go crazy with L2. At least that's what I saw another person here posted. They barely touched him.
 
Hum, yes they do, that's how I finally beat him. I chained 4 parries in a row and dead he was.

From the wiki: "Caution: when he buffs himself bullets no longer stun and melee attacks will no longer interrupt his. However if you backstab him while he is charging his buff the bullets will still work as will melee attacks to interrupt his attacks, making the second half of the fight significantly easier. He will however still have the new moveset."
 
Bloodborne lacks in a few areas that are maybe up for debate (character variety,) but one in which I feel there is just a massive step backwards is NPCs. Bloodborne has no Solaire of Astora. It doesn't even have a Stockpile Thomas.

Bloodborne is jammed with content. I'm shocked at how many maps and enemies and bosses are present. But the NPC stuff feels halfbaked. Maybe that's the direction Based Miyazaki felt appropriate. Maybe it was low on the list of priorities. But the NPCs mostly have no quest. If they have any quest, it's two steps long and doesn't involve much except talking to the NPC then going right into a fight. If Eileen the Crow and Alfred represent the apex of Bloodborne NPC interactions, then NPC interactions are not a highpoint of Bloodborne.

Kill the caster first, then take both the other 2 enemies to 25% health each. At this point kill one quick while the other starts to summon the big snakes, then you only have 25% health left on the other guy, so just get to him quick and whoop his ass

Where's muh Snuggly!
 
Platinum get! The
chalice dungeon
trophy was by far the hardest, but overall much less time consuming that demon's/dark souls plats.

They target where you are going, not where you are. So doing full sprint in one direction will not work. I run in a circle - large enough of a circle that I don't complete it until the attack is finished.

I wouldn't really want them to be more complicated, I missed enough NPC stuff as it is
 
So
is this badass motherfucker in a yellowy version of the mascot set with a cleaver and a pistol who's persisted through deaths supposed to be here?

Did you do 3 legit playthrough or did you use savestates?
Because then of course it isn't as time consuming.
