Never lock onto Rom. Just keep running in a curved line so that you won't get hit by it.
The only real difficulty is not getting hit by the other spiders.

Whatever you do,
don't worry about the spiders once Rom starts using his homing missiles.
Saw some people mentioning sub 40 minute speedrun. Here's 1.02 WR by the same guy (53:40) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kQFfakpHHY

Where are you in the game? I'm in a forest. Have made it to the boss. You there yet? We could co-op. I'm level 52.

A dude on twitch just did a live run at 1:11:06 ingame time, 1:26 or so RTA.
That's all bosses run btw. Was insane.

Holy crap you guys weren't kidding the Abhorrent Beast! I couldn't even bring him down to half of his health. I can't get his dodging down.

Thank you everyone who was helping with R
strategies; I was able to beat him first try last night (although over leveled at 62 may have helped^^). He and the W
are my only "one shots" or "first tries" at the moment, but am really enjoying finding all the different builds I can make around Skill and Arcane^^ for the curious I used the
method. Bolt paper helped a lot also^^

itches
ignore spiders and 2 hits then dodge

Is there anyone that can help me with the forest boss? I've been stuck on this one for awhile and can't find anyone to summon. I'm level 42.

I beat him without cheesing him with my +10 Schythe. I could barely get a hit in with my Ludwig's.
nowhere close, I haven't been able to play too much but am getting into it tonight. i'm level 18. Good to see you too buddy.waves at Hawkian

I wonder if there's anything other than random glitches that people haven't found in this game yet. There's only two loose ends that I can think of: (major spoilers)
The "key" gem you get from killing the Queen in chalice, and the old dude in the rocking chair sitting outside Rom. I got a weird effect when I spoke to him the first time on NG++, looked sorta similar to absorbing souls but with a blue glow. Not sure what it did, though.

What's the method to use?
Well I didn't do the
dupe glitch so I'm behind everyone else
Dhruv and Orthogonal were kind enough to help me, I would help you if you want.

I think that's the 'expert' way.
The way I think you're supposed to do it the first time is:
Drop off edge in first area gatling hits, go through house, past open area where you get shot at and attacked (draw the enemies into house so you can fight them w/o being shot at, then sprint across to bridge, go across wood plank bridge to where birds are, then go through the area with wolves and witchy things (use pebbles to fight in safe zones, w/o drawing fire). You'll need to roll across the bridge to be sure you don't get hit by bullets, but it's easy. This will put you under the gatling, and behind the other hunter. Kill them in either order, but probably do the ground guy first -- he's easily exploitable from behind as he sort of just runs down the stairs, attacks, retreats..

It's been a productive evening for me. Managed to beat
.
Afterwards, I decided to go through the
Off to bed now and hopefully I'll be able to take a crack at the area near
Micolash, Host of the Nightmare on my first try. Very interesting boss "chase"
Afterwards, I decided to go through the
Nightmare Frontier as it seemed like an optional area and I was right. Amygdala was an absolute push over. Destroyed her on my first try. Guessing I'm overleveled now with me progressing with the Nightmare of Mensis instead. Also feel like the whole spider/frenzy ordeal made me a better player 
Off to bed now and hopefully I'll be able to take a crack at the area near

For me:
Witch of Hemwick - Spawned minion is waaaay too slow, and you can use the room easily to avoid the few things the witch even does.
Micolash - Biggest wimp in the game, and my least favorite boss overall. Only remotely threatening attack is the AoE magic which is easy to dash through, and every other move gives you a year and a half to punish him.
Celestial Emissary - Feels more like a joke to setup for Ebriteas right after--the mobs are not an issue with the room layout since they slowly walk towards you, making it simple to just get up on the side so they all follow, then drop down and hit the main one. Big alien attacks are slow and easy to avoid.

I feel the Skythe has a better dodge I just stayed close and dodged (sometimes 3-4 staight times) until he paused for a L2 in and immediately dodge towards him (either to his left or right which ever side was more open)
That said I still need 12 vials to beat him. Ludwigs 2H was too slow he would move so I would miss or I would get hit by him before I dodged away. Ludwig 1H was too short I had to be too close (could not get away from a few of his attacks)
The key is to circle (most of his deadlies attack are straight out) him not to roll away or straight through him(if you roll by him he could do a quick hit on you when you get behind him).
poor
I hit him so hard, he died twice.

lol took me less than one minute... perfect battle (no hit)... just stay behind him hitting R1 and he will be down for Viceral... you can recover stamina when he is down and hit R1 again.
These are jokes bosses
Witch of Hemwick
stay looking for the bitch when I discovered there are two.... didn't changed what I was doing
Celestial Emissary is a joke.
I can only assume you experienced the boss memory glitch.I don't know I started the battle withand got her back... after that I just saw her down for Vicerals... I just don't stopped to hit her from back.... she almost didn't hit me.Vicar

Nah man keep it. I'm going through Mensis at the moment and mine is at 45. What's the worst that can happen, right?
Really? I thought I explored all of it the first time I went past, and I just combed through it again and still can't find them. :I
Mind you I need more than that even, only got one at the moment and I'll need 18 in total.
What's your level? I'm 73
He was a cunt for me in NG+, constantly spamming his bullshit one-hit-kill arcane attack.

I've had a hoot with people's shenanigans in CO-OP. My favorite was when i called for help to beat shadow of yharnam (First time in the fight). I was just being a chicken and homedude showed up and waited right outside of the fog, to up the difficulty. I beat shadow of yharnam anyway, and he IMs me on PSN and says "You have passed the trial of the forest!!"

Finally beat the game and did all three endings. Man, what a ride! Bloodborne is definitely my GOTY so far. I still need two more trophies for the platinum: the one related to the chalice dungeon, and the all weapons trophy. I gotta see what weapons I'm missing.
Edit- Ah, I gotta finish up
quest line for a certain weapon.
