So I am really close to finishing the game and heading into NG+. Are there any items that I should make certain that I get before moving on?

 

[postcyberpunk]

I suck at this game, for sure, but after 15 times trying to get past the two hounds in Central Yharnam, I finally beat them and when I walk into the next area the game states that I have lost the connection to the Bloodborne servers and it sends me back to the title screen. When I get back to the two hounds, they are back and I can't get past them again. That is some epic level trolling right there... sigh.

Beat the very first boss on Demons Souls and gave up. Got to the hub world thing in Dark Souls and gave up.

But absolutely loving Bloodborne. Beat every boss up to the Shadow of Yharnam, level 56 with a +6 cane and just loving the game. Plays so well.

 

[Astral]

I just got grabbed by BSB for the first time. What a bullshit attack.

 

[ThisOne]

Are any of the tools worth my time? I have pretty low Arcane and I'm hesitant to raise it too much...

 

[super-famicom]

Any reason why my Ludwig Blade is suddenly deteriorating so fast? Does it have to do with the fact that I'm in the Ailing Loran? Seriously, after like half an hour it starts complaining that my weapon is at risk again? (it's at +10)

Do you have a cursed gem equipped on it that increases your Attack but also lowers weapon durability?

Shit, I'm going through NG+ and I've hit a huge wall with Vicar Amelia. I beat her on the first try in NG but now I'm getting tossed so easily.

I wasted all of my numbing mists and now I'm out of vials. fuck

Look for ways around, it's not worth the trouble to agro those at that stage in the game. Also consider epic running routes to get back to where you were before. Enemies do have tethers, especially if you can fall down a ledge or climb a ladder

I would make sure you have enough blood chunks to upgade at least one weapon(additional) from +6-+9. That is unless you dont care about using the Scythe(awsome weapon IMO)....

You don't have to kill them. Alternatively, you can go back into the building you came out from with them in tow. They'll get stuck in the doorway and you'll be able to kill them easily.

 

[TropicanaTwista]

OK so im in the upper cathedral ward and I need help. Is there a way to kill those certain enemies easy. The one that paralyses you then I guess sucks blood out of you (well at least I think thats what they are doing). To me those are the cheapest most annoying enemies in the game. They take so much health from you and u cant really do anything about it.

bait them around corner. Never let them hit you with their magic, it will nail you, leaving you open to them to grab you

 

[Atilac]

I platinumed the game, what do I do now?

 

[HardRojo]

I said I'd finish Bloodborne during the weekend but I have so much stuff to do that I'll try to finish it right now, I'll barely have time during the weekend :/

 

[TropicanaTwista]

At first I was just running past them, but the problem in this area is its so dark I can barely see and one seems to pop up out of nowhere and trap me.

Also if you get trapped, is there a way to break out? I just button mash but idk if that actually does anything.

Did you get the Messenger Transformation spell from the Nightmare Frontier? Believe you can only get that on 1st playthrough as well.

more calice, NG++, new character, seek for all runes, level and try more weapons...

Waste of skin, guns only, torch only. Speedrun any %, speedrun all bosses, PVP, Co op with new players.

Get your char up to like 200 so you can find all those cool items in the Chalices with multiple additional rites. So you can cruise through NG+++

play another game. DS2 remaster is out.

 

[Lender]

Do you have a cursed gem equipped on it that increases your Attack but also lowers weapon durability?

That was it, thanks.

Just had the most epic fight with my arch nemesis, BSB in the dungeon level. Jesus christ, I'm still trembling after how it all turned out... Clip wil follow.

 

[Revengineer]

HAHAHA that is the best fucking representation of what getting that platinum must feel like.

How high do you feel right now?

Most likely a cursed gem that lowers weapon durability, like -54 seems to make one hit = makes you durability drop by one point, had one once and it was a pain to maintain.

Martyr Logarius. I can beat his first phase without any problem, rarely ever get hit by his magic. But once he resorts to primarily melee I just get destroyed.

I didn't realize you could go down into an abyss like area in Mensis. Pretty crazy!

Well, there's always ng+

Only if they release DLC ;P

Hint:

Spoiler

If you backstab him when he's powering up for phase 2 it'll make phase 2 easier. Otherwise he can't be stunned/parried during phase 2.

 

[milkham]

i guess you didn't see it

 

[Zafir]

Bah.

Finally opened up defiled pthu but I feel like I don't have the health to tackle it. xD 40 just doesn't seem enough VIT.

Spoiler

Oh I'm pretty sure he can be parried during phase 2 even if he charges up. I'm sure I managed to when I beat him. I didn't even realise you could stop the charge up. It was not that easy though, he's rather fast.

 

[Papercuts]

Where do you get the Scythe?

You have to buy it. It either shows up after you beat the game or when you reach the last boss, not sure.

Ah, good to know, thank you! Does that also interrupt the AOE that happens after he powers up?
