Just completely destroyed MWN
Died the first few tries to her clone BS. Out of curiosity I tried Beast Blood Pellets to see if it'd make a difference and apparently it did. Started doing huge damage with my saw cleaver +8 and she never went into clone mode (and no, I haven't been running my PS4 for 12 hours lol) Now all that's left to do is Upper Cathedral Ward and then back up save/get the three endings. Haven't done chalice dungeons yet so I think I'll just do them from the backed up save
It will open after a certain story boss.
you need a special item by talking to NPC in the forbidden forest. You need a
passsword
skip
this is true if you already did what I said above....but happens much later in the game than I assumed you were at.

Haha. I didn't have this problem when I was using the cane, blades of mercy or the chikage, I always used L1 to transform. But when I started using the
Burial Blade
Never accidentally blocked though.

Nope, one blood rock per chalice type sadly.

Outside
boss room, using my bell to try to have my first ever coop session in the game. Anyone online?
EDIT: I'm level 37 btw.

this?
the upper Cathedral Ward gate must be unlocked via the Hunter Chief Emblem which can be bought at the Hunter's Dream for 10k echoes after obtaining the Sword Hunter Badge from the Cleric Beast.

Serious question regarding difficulty of late game areas:
I read a lot about N
I read a lot about N
ightmare Of Mensis being super unfair/cheap, as well as Unseen Village, but I didn't really notice anything overly BS about them. Yeah there was the frenzy orange light but it seemed fairly easy to avoid by breaking its line of sight. I'm by no means an expert at this game but it's a bit disappointing to hear countless claims of "yeah the game pretty much turns into cheap BS cuz it runs out of ways to be difficult and fair" and not run into any of that. Unless these people thought it was a good idea to try and take on those rock throwing giants or something lol.
I was semi expecting there to be literally a corridor of those creepy singing brain things but I never ran into one. I heard one singing near the final shortcut but I don't think I saw one in Mensis. Cheapest/worst thing in the game for me was just the poison areas in Nightmare Frontier... I remember reading about a bell ringing woman spawning "super fast red spiders" but I never saw this (unless its a chalice thing)

"When the Defiled Chalice was first built, there was a man born inside who had the ability to change whatever he wanted, to remake the Dungeon as he saw fit. It was he who freed the first of us, taught us the truth - As long as Amygdala exists, the human race will never be free. After he died, the Oracle prophesied his return and his coming would hail the destruction of Amygdala, end the war, bring freedom to our people. That is why there are those who have spent our entire lives searching Yharnam looking for him."I think I have to!And I'm pretty sure I didn't glitch her and I always play couple hours at a time and completely turn off my ps4 between playtimes so it shouldn't be that either. ^^

Last thing you mentioned is indeed a Chalice thing.

Well, that sounds awful.
That last paragraph of what you were expecting is an actuality if you want to get the bloodrock and high quality rune.
Lock on to his body, stay under him and kick his ass. Just watch out for his AOE.
Roll around and slash its legs. If you have a reliable way to get good shots on its head, do that instead (rifle spear charge attack, cannon, etc).
With something like an axe you can just charge-R2 under it and basically cripple it at will. It's silly.
Equip Henryk's set for bolt resist.

Goddamit, I saved up all the pungent blood and antidotes I could find for the B
B
and finally got to the boss, only to use all of them and only get him 2/3rds of the way down. Actually fuck this boss, or any other boss that requires you to use the game's shitty-ass item system on the fly while some gigantic fucking monster bears down on you.

Thanks, I will have to buy that gear.
Leave him and fight him later that's what I did, he is optional afterall.

I wouldn't bother with the root dungeons unless it's a depth 5,maybe depth 4.

I just got my platinum trophy! I never thought I could handle this game, but after two weeks I mastered it! I don't know if I will keep playing, but this game puts a lot of stress on my body. My jaw hurts often because of how much tense i get when i fight a boss. Do any of you guys experience the same?
Don't give up. Honestly for me it seemed like the first area was the toughest. Once you can level up you will start to see yourself getting better and better. You will also start to realize that most normal enemies only have a couple moves so if you are patient and use the side step they will be vulnerable.
Pungent blood cocktails work on him.
Some of the bosses on my first run gave me sweaty palms. I think it's actually worse when you're about to kill something first try. Or maybe it's just me.

Just wondering, how are you suppose to know at M
Seriously, how are you suppose to know that? Is there any hint in the game that i've missed?
other Brain, that doing the signal gesture for some time will give you a rune?
Wait, so you can play fetch with Paarl? Gotta try this with watchdog...
To be clear, i never ever used this strategy and always said to people to use the one i posted first. But the second strategy got posted here by different people who struggled with him and beat him that way so i wanted to give him another option besides the , imo better way, i did myself (just going after rom).
Well, I'm looking for a good reason to skip or play the following.
Sinister Pthumeru Ihyll Root Chalice (5)
Sinister Lower Loran Root Chalice (5)
Lower Ailing Loran Root Chalice (5)
Isz Root Chalice (5)
Sinister Isz Root Chalice (5)
I might dabble in some just for kicks, but may skip all if nothing of worth.
Google for the glyph loot list, look at the loot you want and join other people's root chalice.

I cant get the damn beckoning to work at all. The second I ring the bell, boom, network connection lost, what the fuck.
There isn't. You just have to be insane enough to
try making contact with a Great One.

Hehe ok
Yeah, i love them too, i was just curious how someone would figure it out.

Anyone want to do Defiled together (back and forth clearing layers?). I'm 106 or so. I'm working on Isz but can make a Defiled whenever. I have some time now, but mostly I'm looking for help tonight (say, 11pm -2am PST or so). PM me if interested - i read this thread but it moves fast.

I platinum'd this game a couple of weeks ago, overall I do think that the lack of magic builds hurts the replayability of the game however other than that (and technical issues) I have no complaints.
The combat, when it's not suffering from frame drops, is excellent. The level & enemy design is lovely especially during the second half of the game. While build diversity isn't quite as amazing as other Souls games, the weapons themselves do feel a lot more interesting, and you still have some interesting options like a Bloodtinge build with Evelyn / Chikage. Hopefully DLC will address build diversity somewhat.
Final Chalice boss was really enjoyable too, I was worried that it would end up being disappointing.
Dark Souls 1 is still my favourite souls game, but I'd rank Bloodborne on equal footing with Demon Souls with Dark Souls 2 at the bottom.

Upgrade the flame sprayer, use bone marrow ash and try to spray fire on his legs. He will fall, hit him, repeat. That's how I killed him.

Well, it might? It's possible we just haven't found some yet. I mean, that one is pretty obscure. Even if I was crazy enough to
make contact, I don't know that I'd have waited 30 seconds. Then again, I suppose if you realized it wasn't attacking, you might decide it hid a secret and so would start trying things... maybe?
There are definitely 'secrets' and/or glitches that I'm shocked anyone figured out. For example, the
experience glitch where you had to leave some things unkilled in one zone, race to another zone, then circle a table..
Is it possible to uninstall Bloodborne, install the disc version, and then replicate the infinite blood echoes glitch, and then patch the game?
I want to level all the stats to 99, if possible, on my MC.
I would like to try it instead of asking, but then I don't have access to my PS4 for about a week.
If I have to make a new character, so be it though. It'll be worth it.

Upper Cathedral Ward...The 3 werewolves in the main building with the brain suckers. There is also one upstairs to the left by the window down the hall.
Mind you, you need to unlock the main entrance to the building before you can go straight in and farm the werewolves for blood stones directly from the lamp post.
Yeah as I mentioned I didn't mean to lash out at you or anything but between what I've seen in co-op and what's been suggested, my argument is unless you want to spend 10+ minutes per attempt, most of which is just clearing spiders, then so be it but it doesn't make Rom any less dangerous on his own, so avoiding the spiders are just one more obstacle in the fight, one that's easy to avoid if you never stop moving. Clearing the spiders in the first phase is fine if you want to inflict the most free damage on him. Me personally I've never been able to do more than 50% of his health with these free hits but for those struggling this could be huge for progress.

Don't use lock on, attack his legs until he drops, then attack his face.

Thanks for the info guys.
Yea he spoiled it. Wish I didn't know who the final boss was but it's not that big of a spoiler for me.
Oh well.
He seems to only use the Logarius Wheel for special occasions.
