I bet you that most people who have played MMOs will disagree with you. Saying "one shot" to describe killing something in one attempt has been an extremely common term for like 20 years. Before Halo and CoD even existed.

Only on gaf
Oh boy, there's a couple of areas later that's gonna be a bit hard for you. Honestly, I ran past the worst of it in the mandatory section but you're still gonna have to kill a few. There's an optional area that has some spider like creatures that you're probably best to avoid entirely. You can run past them and get indoors without engaging if you want to do that section. *shudders*
I think it's more inappropriate for an action game then anything else.

Got the platinum trophy for this one and my god , the cursed chalice dungeon , the one you have half hp is the hardest part of the game in my opinion. The fight against gerhman is one of the most badass boss fights ever in my years of gaming, the dialogue, the place, the soundtrack and that amazing fast pace gameplay. It felt like a dance.
Fear the old butt
This is exactly what I experienced. Haven't been this engrossed and mesmerized by a game since Half-Life 2. Did not expect that to happen, I want to hug this game for the sheer wonderment it instills in me.
It's not at all inappropriate. A shot = a try and it's a completely appropriate term to an RPG like Bloodborne, which like MMORPGs, where it can take many attempts and reps to kill a boss.
Also given that you generally don't shoot things to kill them in Bloodborne and are usually hitting things to death - One Hit Kill, OHK, seems more appropriate.

Is there a defense to end boss G
ehrman's 1-hit kill move where he jumps in the air and throws his weapon at you? Every once in a while, it only does 90% damage, but still... I roll dodge, but I get hit every fucking time. Really fucking frustrating when I have him down to 2-3 hits and he pulls that bullshit.

Since it's my first time playing, should I go out of my way to get the true ending, or just let whatever happen happen?
fwiw I'm not planning on playing NG+ Getting my ass kicked once is enough for me

I kicked roms ass in about that time and actually recorded it. Fight was much easier than I expected. I died once on him, but then went back and handled business. Will upload vids later if anyone wants to see.
1. Which one do you mean?
2. I would wait since it
triggers next moon phase that locks out stuff.
There is elevator almost right next to the lamp which leads to the boss area directly.

Go up the right hill/path to the right of the boss wall, small opening leads to an elevator that leads to the lantern for that area.

After you beat Father Gascoigne, another Hunter appears in that same spot after some time.
He killed me a few times but on one attempt he was inside a wall and I was able to kill him. But did I miss an important drop or anything? Because I can't reach it or even tell if he dropped anything at all.

There's a major non optional boss that will be a nightmare for you.
If you reload the area, the loot *should* be on the spawn point of that hunter. It's what usually happen when you miss loot.

The altar is used to end someone else's questline.
I do not think that messes up
Eileen's
I think just speed running instead of dashing or rolling is the ticket.

Then I went back to the Cathedral Ward and
Arianna was missing, with a blood trail leading from her chair down to the basement. I now realize that those enemies I saw in Upper Cathedral Ward were fetuses. I killed it, but she also died in the process

this is my 4th playthrough and I screwed it up the previous 3 times (1st 2 times I killed her in
grand cathedral after Rom
This time I just killed BSB on NG+ on my 2nd char. I spoke with her prior to FG. I have also kiled the Gatling Gunner and the other NPC hunter at the base of the tower.

Ha sorry, didnt see it posted earlier.
Anyways, I'm still just started out on the Forbidden Woods and want to play it slow because I feel like the end is close (since people are clocking in around 30-35 hours). So I'm largely done with this thread since I guess most of you are well past me/finished now.
DLC potential and sales are all I'm curious about now, but I have to say, I can't recall the last time a single game has resulted in so many threads on GAF.

Then, it was just a matter of not letting the other invoke the

It was beautiful. I love this game.

Probably my 15th try on A
now, whenever I am underneath it trying to hit its arms I am getting crushed. Even behind it. Did they change something about this boss fight with the update? Strategy videos on YT look so easy...

I'd say you're about 1/3 of the way through, assuming you've done all the optional stuff you can so far.
It depends on what you want to do. If you don't care about the circle-jerk PVP meta game on like gamefaqs and reddit where people are trying to decide between level 100 and level 120 builds specifically for a PVP community then just keep going with your current character.
Both Strength and Skill are good for almost every single weapon and you shouldn't worry about how high level you are. Every stat (except Endurance) is worth taking to 50 if you use weapons that use it.
Personally, I went 50/40/50/50/50/50 just so I could play with every weapon and item.
Every weapon except for the Blade of Mercy (Skill only) and Logarius' Wheel (Strength only) use both Phys ATK stats for scaling and it's good to have both. Bloodtinge is good for guns, especially the Cannon and Evelyn, and really important for the Chikage.
And Arcane, well personally I feel that Arcane is total garbage. The weapons with +Arcane damage innately barely get any bonus ATK from it and turning your weapon into a Arcane/Bolt/Fire weapon and using its Arcane scaling gives you *far* lower ATK than pure Physical weapons. The Arcane items also are pretty bad, imo. Especially the one that requires 40 Arcane to use - it's completely useless. The best one is the Arcane Buff item that works like Fire/Bolt Paper and only takes 15 Arcane to use.
Having 209 base Item Discovery at 50 Arcane is kinda nice though. 430 with all 3 Eye Runes equipped. Enemies almost always drop stuff at that high.
