I let the expletives fly, thankfully the wife is out of town for the next few more weeks, so I have been able to go on my tantrums in solitude.
I have to watch my mouth since I have a 4 year old son, but when they're gone.. F bombs like they're going out of style

yikes, having nightmare fueling experiences in this chalice dungeon. Those summoned spiders....

What's the best way to deal with them when there are about eight of them that keep respawning? I need about 3 hits to kill them so I'm having a feeling I'm underleveled for this. (it's only layer 4 dungeon too)

They respawn as fast I can kill the next ones so I just can't progress to the maidens T.T

I've tried running past the spiders but then the werewolves just reck me. #1stWorldProblems :D

you need to just try and run through and kill the maidens asap. ignore them. if werewolf is in the way, try luring it back and killing it first.
 
No... but it matters what you wield. Will some weapons do worse? Yes. Will some do better? Yes.

Shouldn't the fact that I'm getting higher attack gains from levelling up skill than going past softcap on strength offset that a bit and give me more choice in what weapons to use?
 
Ok, so who the hell was the first person to get the 30% moon rune by
doing the make contact guesture in front of the brain for 30 seconds
? Like, how did anyone figure that out!

Kind of going off of that...

Do you think leveling up skill (using Ludwig's), if I have Strength at the soft cap, will help with the Chalice Dungeons? Namely
Defiled, since my HP will be half
but I can help mitigate my squishiness with high damage output.

Depends on the level layout, but I try to run them into a room, run around them and make a b-line to the maidens, takes a moment for werewolves to respond usually, but it depends on his placement and the maidens placement. There is one chalice where there are two maidens that is probably why there are so many, but they should be close together.

Sorry dude but I find that oddly hilarious.

Yeah, they are usually sleeping, all their heads pop up simultaneously and they look around quick with a great amount of concern, a couple head to the bedroom to go under the bed.

Haven't done chalices, but a str/skill build is perfect for ludwigs.

I am 90% sure some dude who had inside information about the guide leaked it. This was on Gamefaqs.

People thought he was trolling/lying until someone tried it out and it worked! LMAO!
 
Started a NG+ with over 230k bloodechoes after killing
moon presence
but I forgot that the doll doesn't come alive until later near
CLeric Beast
. So I'm basically fucked with those points?

The werewolf is bout halfway over to the bellmaidens so first i somehow need to survive the spiders up to there only to have that blasted thing on my ass too haha
Think I'll just try level my vit a bit so I can survive the run to the maidens.


On a unrelated note, does anyone know if molotov cocktails scale with Arcane? I've got molotovs stashed away but with them only doing 150 damage I don't see any point in using them anymore
 
Just started cracking into the Chalice dungeons (Think I waited too long as I'm blowing through the layers). I cannot get enough of this game. It's amazing how much it has to offer.

Question about an early bit in the game:

So I got the red brooch but had already beaten Gascagione before visiting the little girl, so I never got the music box. Does this change the story/end in any way?
 
So there was a dude
who was a spider
that I murdered right away because fuck that shit, was he important at all

if you talk to him and choose the correct answer, he gives you an awesome rune and
you killed a wonderful cameo by Patches

The Doll is alive the first time you go to Hunters Dream via a lantern.

It has nothing to do with CB, but how much insight you have. You need at least one for her to be awake.
 
If you reload the area, the Church Giant will be stuck behind the gate and can't chase you anymore. The first time, he'll walk out and you have to run past him or face him. If you pull the lever, every time after that you won't need to (assuming it's not night time, because I think he's asleep by then).

I think the sleeping giants is an insight change, not a time-of-day change?

I think if you have a hunters mark and initiate the cleric beast fight and just use the mark to zone out, she should be alive and able to talk to her. You should have plenty of time to use the mark as soon as he comes down during his intro, worked for me.
 
Is Evelyn worth levelling bloodtinge up to replace my hunters pistol?
 
How am I supposed to deal with this giant
mess of brains and eyeballs
that frenzies me to death in Nightmare of Mensis?

No your not. You should be able to knock the CB out in a couple of hits.

No it doesn't affect the story/end.
If you can still give the girl the red brooch the side quest should still progress.

Is Evelyn worth levelling bloodtinge up to replace my hunters pistol?
I think it is. The Evelyn scales in Bloodtinge all the way to S and I don't think the hunter's pistol does that.

Hits like a truck (though not as much as cannon), the problem is there's only one trick weapon that uses bloodtinge. If you don't count the trick weapons with gun modes.
 
Yes but even with 99 insight she'll not be awake the first time you get to hunters. Gotta find the first lamp.

I just did it and I had to face Cleric Beast for her to be alive again. I killed him, pretty sure it works just like new game where she will be alive when you gain your first insight (dying to or killing cleric beast). I didnt try a madmens knowledge though. That might work.

just use a madmens knowledge to gain a point of insight
 
I'm early in the game, just killed the Blood-Starved Beast boss and got the chalice, but I don't know what to do next. I have checked every available locked door in the cathedral ward but I can't not open any of them.

Any help will be appreciated !
 
Alright so in
Yahar'gul unseen village, Hypogean Gaol or Advent Plaza
Not sure which is the correct location. There are these burning
guys in a circle with a ringing noise that emits and it goes out if you get one of the crazy looking beasts things walking around in a box to hit one.
Is there any significance to these things going out? Should I be trying to do that for all of them in the area?
 
(Late game) So i just steamrolled the W
et
N
urse
boss in N
ightmare
M
ensis
(micolash is gone too)
with my freshly upgraded Ludwig's +10
(she has really short and weak attacks)
and the only thing that comes to my head that is left in this place is to find that big
heart/whatever,
that i
dropped into a hole
. Can i find this thing? Searched already a bit at the spots i had visited. Probably a door i oversaw. I liked the
spiders with the heads. Also the dog ravens.
Nice one FROM.

Go the start of the castle where the Hunter stood in front of and the first little dudes walked around. There is a small elevator in the place with the pit falls.

You havent killed A
melia i guess? Go to the hunters dream, there you can buy the hunter chief emblem, it opens one of the big doors in the cathedral ward that will lead you to one of the available bosses.. there is also a way to get there without the emblem but i wont tell:)
