The bosses in layer 5 Pthumerian are just as tough. Just sayin'.

Is this game even playable without updating? My console is offline and without any updates it won't let me get past the splash screen at the beginning.
Update: So you can you just have to delete your saved data. I backed my old data up onto a USB drive and deleted it so I could start a game on 1.0
I just want to do the Iosefka jump

Beat Mergo on NG+ and got both endings using a USB. Micolash gave me more hassle than most of the bosses on NG+. Started NG++ but will focus on Chalice Dungeons. They are good in theory but the presentation is horrendous.
I ordered the guide but after all the delays I just canceled the order today. Beasted the game so much that'd it'd be useless other than as a collectible.

Multiplayer bug still not fixed.
Char 3 and I'm still not able to summon. I hear the sound but the other player never spawns + game crashes when I die during a boss fight + I can't return to hunter's dream when summoning bell is active ("quit game"only option).
I tried everything. I got the bug after 2/3 of my first playthrough. This is bullshit.

One thing they fucked it up badly it's the weapon disposition in this game.
Im at Byrgenwerth and I can't even beat that fucking hunter even though I steamrolled through her in my first character because I'm doing a BT build and there's no weapon for me now so I do absolutely shit damage even with visceral attacks. So fucking annoying.
EDIT: Fuck her, kicked her out to Rom's lake lol

I'd bump strength and/or skill to 35. She is manageable once you figure her attack pattern.
Yeah, it felt like an easy fight compared to others.

Which weapon do you want to use? Mercy? Burial? Tonitrus? Wheel? Ludwig?
Depending on your answer you'll have to pump into Skill or Strength.
Alternatively if you can't decide yet then just put it into Vit.

Did nearly all of
in one sitting. Got some really cool items from that place, but the boss came unexpectedly and one-shotted me with some red spell.

Your weapons are only up to +3?

Most trophy guides / roadmaps have step by step directions.
I found this one to be the most comprehensive -- the Chalice directions are towards the end of page 1 and onto page 2.

Essentially you're trying to complete the main 5 chalices, but there are a couple 'side' chalices you need to do for parts. In general, you can speed run the hard ones (just look for the switch, and fight the boss).

Then calls boss unfair*
Upgrade whichever weapon you prefer, +3 is too low for this stage of the game. You should have quite a few Twin Bloodstone Shards.fuck........... this boss is just unfair.Vom the spider

Other tips:
Wear arcane resistant clothing. Kill the first wave of spiders, then focus on Rom and ignore the next two waves. Use Bolt Paper, lightning is strong against Rom. Avoid hitting the spiders or Rom in the face, the faces are armored. Try to stay at a closer distance to Rom so she doesn't abuse the meteors; the best time to attack her is when she does the medium range attack where she flips over and summons crystals from the ground. Keep at full health.

Upgrade some weapons to +6 and pick up some bolt paper or
Tonitrus from Hypogean Gaul
Kill all the little ones when you first start the fight. Load up your bolt paper or secondary mode for the above weapon, and go to town. Hit him as hard as you can and keep swinging when he starts teleporting. You should be able to take off 1/3 to 1/2 of his life.
After that, stay fairly close and circle strafe the group of spiders. Kill the spiders that get out on their own, but don't worry too much on killing them all. You just want to thin the herd out a little bit. Keep your eyes on he boss and when you have a clear path to him, run in and hit his side a couple of times, then run out. If you're quick then you should be able to get in a couple of hits before spiders start jumping at you. Just like any other boss, don't get greedy. Follow this method until he dies. The only time I used lock on was when I was attacking a smaller spider. Using it in this fight seems to make it difficult to dodge the meteors.

please tell me the defiled chalice is only one that

It's the only one needed for the chalice related trophy, thankfully. I forgot if there's a root version of it.
Man, I've went from adoring nearly everything about this game, to fucking nearly despising it with this
crap. It's like everything I've learned and leveled for means nothing. Now it's basically run to the checkpoint the game. When I die I'm not saying "Damn it!! So close!!". I'm saying "this is fucking bullshit."
Unseen Village
Kill the first three bell ringers and you'll be fine. The first two are easy to find, the last you can find by stepping through a gap in the iron fence on the right of the courtyard that leads to the laser-firing Amygdala. Killing them stops the respawn and weakens the enemies so you can pick them off and explore at your leisure.
The second part of the level is much less frantic.

thank god!
Thanks for the tip on the last one, couldn't find her, but
this wide open area with shit tons of those skull things and ANOTHER bell ringing lady seems pretty fucking hectic to me.

Ughhh! The last boss of the defiled chalice is wrecking me. I found the one before this easier as I could read the attacks. Have to grind echoes.
Do you use the first layer of the ailing loran chalice to grind? Those hunch back guys give 4100 echoes with the moon runes & there are 8 of them.

The elevator to the Gaol? Oops you edited it. Yeah I have. Still can't get passed the area I'm talking about yet though.

Do you have to keep the weapons for the trophy or just get them?
If you just need to get them once does it carry over to NG+?

So I beat the game, restarted and downgraded my copy of BB to ver. 1.0, and used the
to get the cannon early. I wanted to have fun this time around so I also did the
and am now level 26 with the cannon. I kinda want to get revenge on all the bosses that made my legit run hard, by owning them in the face with the cannon. Is the next step maxing out my Bloodtinge?

You don't have to keep it. I'd recommend putting any weapons you don't use into the storage box. And they also carry over into NG+
There's a gap in the elevator. It leads to a bath that will teleport you close to past the big open area.
Although I'm not sure if the bath will work if you go through that way. I always opened the elevator shortcut after going through the bath.

Oh super cool, that helps out a lot. Just found it, appreciate it. Think I'm finally about to fight the boss.
Just completed the game! So happy I did it. Took me 74 hours. Finished at Level 80. Main weapon was the Hunter Axe. Found the one and only blood rock outside of the Chalice dungeons, so I had it at +10. I am a first time player of the souls series and I absolutely fell in love with this game from the start. I had trouble with early bosses, Vicar Amelia, Blood Starved Beast, Shadows of Yarnham to name a few. As I progressed, I think I got gud!! Even though I had trouble and help with Ebrietas, I then went on to beat
all by myself.
went down on the first try.
Even though
and I died at the same time, I ran back through the gate praying I wouldn't have to do that again and sure enough, the cut scene hit and soon after the credits. I also got the other ending which I submit my life. One more play through on NG+ for the true ending. Thanks everyone for the help along the way. I also have to finish up the Chalice's to try to get that Platinum and later plan to build a new character. Easily one of my favorite games ever.

Is there a good guide that details which people you should send to which safe place and why?

Fuck, that fast-moving bastard in the Loran Chalice Dungeon is actually some horror film shit. Everything else I can handle (even the spiders), but that thing could give me nightmares.

Send everyone to Oedon Chapel except the cannibal guy in the Forbidden Woods; send him to Iosefka. Also the old man in the lane by Cathedral Ward. He will go to the place you didn't tell him to go, so tell him to go to Iosefka and he'll go to Oedon Chapel instead.

There is a good stock of unique enemies made just for the chalice dungeons. In fact, I would say that the chalice dungeons have all of the game's most terrifying enemies, both in terms of bosses and common foes. There are some common enemies that will fill you with terror every time you see them, I promise you.

Yes it does. And theses enemies will tear you a new one very quickly; they are no joke.
