Just beat it for the first time and can't wait to get some New Game + on!
In my opinion this is the best game of this "high budget title" console generation, props From Software!
 
Hmmm, maybe I'm getting too close and triggering different attacks? You seem to use a bit more distance than me. I've been using the same armor and similar runes. I guess I'll try a little more space tomorrow.

I've actually been doing great at staying above pace with vials compared to the bosses health, but it's always something like the fire puff that ends it all in one animation.

The story chalices get pretty hard, but the depth 5 ones with modifiers are really nuts. Check this video out of a rotten fetid Isz Chalice I stumbled across in the available online ones... It's absurdly brutal even though I have 62 VIT.

Holy shit, lol.
 
I'm seeing a lot of talk about Chalice Dungeons lately. Are people enjoying them more? I've only done two, and didn't have that much fun with them. The more difficult ones look interesting, though. But I think I'll just put them off until NG+ or something.
 
Gherman is destroying me. I can get him to his final form easily but he whips my ass. Any tips? Please help.

One thing that worked for me was to wait until he switches to the non-scythe form of his weapon, then circle around him close enough so he does his roll-towards-you-then-slash combo. It can be parried easily because the roll telegraphs the move.
If he goes roll-shoot then you're not close enough.
 
My level 20 Hunter is ringing her bell in front of Father G if anyone needs help. I'm just wearing the
White Church Set
and trying to impress the new players ;P
 
I guess root chalice dungeons is the way to go to get better in NG+? So far, it's been a pretty fun challenge. The Witches
of Hemwick
was extremely annoying, but I got them down. Feels a bit silly to be stuck with equipment I know won't get better, lest I farm gems.

Chalice dungeons aren't completly terrible, there is some fun to be had in them. The problem is, they become very grindy, very quickly. At the end of the day, had they put in the work to expand the main game instead of doing these dungeons I would be a happier person.

I agree 100%. 2-3 additional areas instead of the dungeons would have been better for me as well.

I ran up the steps and waited for him to follow and tossed molitovs to finish him off lol. If he got too close I kept running and went down that small roof and kited him up the steps again.

Yeah pretty much.

and despite being a bit different than each other, the idea is still quite the same, so by the end I was really bored to tears.
 
Watchdog took me about half an hour but Defiled Amygdala was cake. First shot win, and I even forgot to put in my defensive gems (had Moon, moon and moon :lol)

I've struggled badly with that Amygdala mainly because I was BARELY doing any damage to it. Like, 40 per swing, honestly ;_; and I just eventually die for switching off

You weren't just hitting her legs, were you? That part of her has super high defense.

I won't find it rude, but it's some sort of tradition in the Souls game to at least bow when you meet a player.

I've been contemplating letting the host die to the boss when they don't bow back. But that might be too mean...

I was mainly focusing on her head on the first phase, which usually goes smoothly, and then I switch to the tail+legs on the 2nd phase, because it was less risky and random.

such a boring fight
 
Holy shit, already at M
ergo's

.

Edit: Down twice. Third times the charm. Irritated cuz it seems like a really easy boss.

Haha, yea that might be a bit mean :p

Don't focus legs or tail. Try to hit the hands or the head.
Step back a little, let it do an attack and charge in, that's how I killed it.
 
Thanks guys! But I killed her weeks ago :pp AND NEVER AGAIN

Hmm, I did that and I was doing like 98 damage to her legs.

that's still a bit shit innit ;_;

I was way under-leveled perhaps.


but really, I dunno what's with me and struggling with the easiest bosses in this series?!:?!!?!?1 I had absolutely no problem with any of the supposed hard bosses but when it comes to those shitty ones they just pummel me to the ground. I'm better at fighting fast and aggressive bosses I guess
 
Oh, I was talking about co-op. I know that some invaders don't bow, though I do.

I know :) It's not at all a problem if the host doesn't gesture me. I know they appreciate my help. I enjoy bonding with them a bit, but hey, I'm here to kill that stupid creature behind that fog gate, anyway! I also like the short and sweet way about it. "There you are. Let's kill it" "OK!"



I was lead on to believe Amygdala would be this impossible boss when I first got there. By the time it
ripped of its arms to attack me with
it basically died. I know you can reach that area very early, so I guess it'd be really hard, then.

Ooh that Amygdala was a push over, but the one in the Defiled Chalice is the one that defiled my asshole -_-
 
:O

Wow. That actually makes me want to do Chalice Dungeons, even though I didn't really enjoy the easier ones.
The easy ones are very boring, but the harder ones can have a lot of the Souls-like tension and many intense moments, and some genuinely challenging bosses (by far the hardest ones really). Depth 3 and below is zzz (unless you do them as soon as they're available, probably), but depth 4 (particularly defiled) and 5 don't fuck around.

I was using a long range weapon that hit her stomach every third or forth hit from between her legs.
 
Is there a boss easier than
The Witches?.

They didnt attack only had to run to the glows hit them a bit, keep running evading the minions. Only had to avoid 2 shots on the second stage but was easy, make it on my first attemp without being hit, maybe I was overleveled, I was at 44 with holy sword +6.

Not really, but it can get ugly if they happen to grab you.

I think it's the easiest boss indeed.

Parry city. I had trouble with him until I just started telegraphing his moves such as his roll for a easy parry. When he's charging up to slash you, that's another easy parry.

Move backwards as far as you can to avoid his jumping wind attack.
 
Question about late game boss fight M
icolash. Is he supposed to be an easy fight? Or is it glitched for me again? I wasn't able to finish the fight because I had to leave for work, but I easily got him to <33%. He just stood there and absorbed my attacks. wtf
Did you leave the game suspended while you were at work? a pretty big glitch can occur if you did that

Thanks guys! He just went down! Took me 2 hours but he's finished. Moon presence went down quickly
 
Any tactics/tips/hints for
Shadow of Yharnam? I managed to kill the two fire guys on first try but once I did that the last one with the weird scythe thing starting spawning those worms which absolutely destroyed me
