Kill the spiders defintely. They don't respawn until he warps away so it'll leave you one vs one with him. At the very least kill the first wave. Makes the fight a lot easier.

Kill them, much easier without the adds randomly fucking your day up.
I feel like there's no real incentive for me to continue playing now I got the platinum.
I am curious when people will find out what the
Yharnam Stone
I assume when the strat guide drops.

I'll never know how people do this. I just beat R
om (4 tries, I actually cleared out all his spiders.
That's... a good bet ;P
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.
Check 3.35 to see how close I got to dying...

Not sure about Insight. I just beat the 5th boss. I have 20 Insight. Do I need to reduce it?

I did not look at that. Sorry if I sound really dumb for saying this but I have no idea what insight even does.

try to stay behind her as much as possible.
i almost got her once using the canon in her face to drop her for visceral attacks but could never replicate it because she seems so unpredictable from the front

Finally killed M
after gunning for him for a few days. So satisfying. Did it at level 50 as well, so folks struggling: it's not the level, it's you! (not an insult, the game has just reassured me several times as of late)
Possible pro-tip:
artyr Logarius
Possible pro-tip:
Bone Marrow Ash. Seemed like it made a difference? Idk, either way the time I decided to try it out was the time I finally beat him. #parries #yolo
Hmm, I don't want to include anything that isn't 100% confirmed accurate. maybe I can test this myself at some point
Thanks. Also, hahahaits R1 to punch up and R2 to kick down
here's me not realizing they climb ladders
I can't believe I left that out. After all my testing. Thank you for reading and noticing that. Different for each weapon form of course, too.
Aw man I wish it was a permanent buff.

Holy shit. M

and I killed each other at the same time. XD
After I respawned, I went right back and it was still dead. THANK GOD.

I've definitely had more success just attacking her back but she turns so quickly it's still a massive pain. Might just have to suck it up and come back later.

not if you hit them in the head. Was wondering if any weapon bypassed their defense.
Thanks. I'll try this later.

What is the quickest/best way to be able to do the Ailing Loran Chalice Dungeon so I can get the B

Don't know about the fastest way, but I just found it in layer 2.

I am wrecking
him in Phase 1, but I can't touch him once he goes super saiyan.
Nothing stuns him, he attacks so fast, and dodging doesn't seem to do anything.

Right, I got that, but I can't even do the ritual for the Ailing Loran or search for someone else's because I need specific Ritual Blood. Do I just do the other dungeons until I find what I need? Is there a good place to look for the specific Ritual Blood (Level 4)?
I can't find a set gates there at all...
You are talking about the Abandoned Old Workshop, right?
He was a hard boss for me too.
You can't stop him from powering up. If you're having trouble with his sword shooting spell, be aware he plants a single sword in the ground when he casts it. If you destroy that one sword the the spell ends. Beyond that you have to be patient, take a couple hits off him here and there and prioritize dodging.
You can stop him sorta. If you do a backstab while he's charging up he'll no longer be immune to stun and parries in phase 2.
Before!
Seriously?
A few times when I was fighting him he'd go to phase 2 without even doing the charge up, so I never thought it could be interrupted.

Toughest boss for me so far, finally beat him yesterday. Like you said phase 1 is pretty easy, after that I used bolt and fire papers just for extra damage. I think someone earlier also said using bone marrow ash was helpful.

I'm enjoying BB after the initial figuring out of the same game mechanics only slightly changed enough to mess you up some
Fall damage is so forgiving now and I'm not complaining

If you're fighting him the large, open rotunda area he's pretty simple:
Always kite/dodge left/counter-clockwise, but don't keep him TOO far away because you need to be in range to bait his pattern.
1st phase:
- He will do a 3-swipe attack. After the third swipe leap attack into his head, then back off.
- eventually he will stagger from this and you can get in a visceral attack on his head.
2nd phase:
- this time he does a two-swipe attack then a ground pound. This is where you leap attack like before and then back off. The timing will be a little trickier since there are a few frames of shockwave dmg when he does it. Eventually this will lead to another visceral attack opening and he should be at 1/3 life.
3rd phase:
- now he will do a golf swing+huge shockwave ground pound. The golf swing is your cue to get ready. Wait until the ground pound shockwave wears off and then hit him. There is a little trial and error involved with gauging the dissipation timing and range of the large shockwave ground pound.
This worked really well for me. His other appearances like in the room with pillars...are another story entirely though.
Just back stab as he tries to get into phase 2 and he'll revert back to phase 1. Easiest boss after doing that.
I personally farmed it in depth 3 of pthu, layer 3, which you have to do anyway for the plat. from the lamp go left then right and there's one of the bag dudes. They drop them, albeit at a low drop rate.

Backstab him if he goes into the power up pose (two handed Gandalf "you shall not pass" pose). He still does the new attacks but isn't buffed and bullets won't curve around him like he's out of MGS2.
Best strat post-buff is to keep a distance from him just outside of his weapon range and wait for him to come to you. If he does flying swords either shoot it, or lock off from Logarius and run a wide lap to the sword and hit it.
If he raises his scythe to shoulder level, shoot him. If he swings the sword first just back up, not worth it. If he goes to dive bomb dash forward through it as he flies toward you and hit his back. If he does the second dive where he tries to land right on top of you wait about a second or so while he's off screen and roll forward then immediately charge an R2. If done right you roll past his attack right behind him and get a free backstab.
Bait the dives, particularly the second dive. That's the secret.

I killed them in his first phase but just ignored them in the 2nd & 3rd phases and just hosed him down with an Ash buffed Flame-Sprayer.
What is the benefit of using Chikage at low level?
