Once we got it working it was fun though. It was fun ganking some of those enemies.

Yeah man thanks for sticking around! I'm glad I have a clearer understanding of how covenants affect co-op now too. Seems really important to make sure you're using matching covenant runes.

That's interesting. Been a hoonter of hoonters since day 1 but I get summoned pretty quick with just 2-3 instances where the beckoner was hostile, never tried summoning others. Getting summoned in chalice still takes a long while though.
I don't know what variables affect the chance of them being hostile is. The wiki says they'll be hostile towards "blood addled hunters". Perhaps it depends on how much PVP or invading you do? I've been doing a lot recently and Jaded was hostile both times I summoned him (Once I was Vileblood, next time I was also Hunter of Hunter). He was also hostile right away when he was Executioner and I was Vileblood (I think this is 100%). Only way to reliably co-op was for us both to be Vileblood (Or both Executioner).

The Burial Blade seems like an interesting weapon, but I also love the aesthetics of the Saw Cleaver, and how it's kinda de facto weapon in the game.
So currently these are the stats to my second character:
Is that the character you've been using in the Defiled chalice? If so, thumbs up for beating the bosses with those stats. =)
Doesn't seem like anyone is entirely sure about what gives you blood addled status but from what I gather it seems like whenever you use the Sinister Bell there's a 5% chance of being flagged with Blood Addled status. If you have this flag then whenever you summon a Hunter of Hunters for co-op then they'll be hostile. Not sure if this is a permanent flag or if it goes away after time but I didn't use the Sinister Bell at all today so it doesn't just go away from resetting. Might go away if you get killed by a Hunter of Hunters?

Yeah if I had to guess it could be that, I barely pvp so that might be it.
Fextra live says Vilebloods will be hostile towards Executioners and vice versa. But when it comes to Hunter of Hunters, they'll be hostile towards other hunter of hunters.
I hope they add some pvp centric covenants in the expansion.
Edit: There's a small chance that a fellow hunter of hunter will get a blood addled status so it's not a 100% thing.
Been reading up on it and posted what I found above. Blood Addled is definitely not limited to HoH, like I said originally I was Vileblood and Jaded was HoH and he was hostile to me. I must have picked up the Blood Addled status from using the Sinister Bell recently. I don't think it goes away until I get killed by a HoH. HoH will be hostile to anyone with the Blood Addled status regardless of their covenant (Seems that as long as you have Blood Addled status they will 100% be hostile towards you).Yeah if I had to guess it could be that, I barely pvp so that might be it.

If you haven't visited a chalice in sometime then the servers purge it and I don't think you can go there anymore
Looking for some PvP?

Read
a post on reddit about
I'm thinking the blood addled status lasts just for that session only, since ringing the bell gives you the status. Need more some confirmation whether or not it lasts for the session or till you get killed by a hunter of hunters.
It doesn't just last that session. Like I mentioned earlier I haven't used the Sinister Bell at all today. I used it yesterday but I quit the game and turned my PS4 off after that.
Isn't that random co-op though? You can't specifically co-op with a friend that way afaik.

I haven't been able to coop with friends using that method tough

Ah, I misread that part in your post I guess. Either way, Confirmation Acknowledged.
Thinking about it now, Fromsoft should add a Hunter of Hunter's register as well. It could be cool to know how many Blood Addled hunters you've taken down.

Anyone wearing Hunter of Hunter rune has a 5% chance of getting a blood-addled hunter/adversary effect during coop session, IIRC. So it's just luck.
That doesn't seem right, the official guide says that you have a 5% chance of getting Blood Addled status if you use the Sinister Bell. If you then summon a HoH they will be hostile towards you. I don't know how/when the status disappears (I'm assuming you have to lose to the HoH you summoned) but if you have the status it appears that it's a 100% chance the HoH will be hostile towards you.
There are a few posts following the ones you quoted talking about it.
The mechanic makes sense. You get blood addled by attacking/invading too many hunters (5% is a small chance but if you're doing a lot of PVP it adds up), and then need to be taken down by a Hunter of Hunters. It wouldn't make sense if just by summoning a HoH to help you there was chance to become "Blood addled" for no reason.
Also, each time I summoned Jaded today while he was a Hunter he was hostile to me, would take way more than a 5% chance for that to happen.

Hmmmmm. I always wear HoH and whenever I coop with someone I always tell them to also wear HoH (or I just unequip the rune) and only very very rarely I got summoned as an adversary so... gah, I don't know.
I even tried also equipping a HoH rune as well and he was still hostile to me. The Blood Addled status is something you pick up from using the Sinister Bell, it has nothing to do with the HoH Rune apart from the fact that people in that covenant will be hostile to you if you summon them while you have the status.
The only way I could summon him as a co-operator was for him to remove the HoH rune.
Edit: So I'm watching DSP fight the Watchdog in the Defiled Pthumeru dungeon and it's actually hilarious. I'm surprised this guy got as far as he did tbh. After 3 or so tries he's just like "It's impossible. There's no way to beat it."

God no, my Defiled character was like in the high 130's to even 140 when she went in there, I'll have to turn my PS4 on and grab her stat screen from that. That's my second character, skill/bloodtinge build, whom is like 5 levels higher than that now with a +10 Chikage and better gems, the attack rating is in the 400's now. If you watch my Ebrietas video she's like level 95 picking Ebrietas apart.
First character, the one that I beat the Defiled chalice with:
Here's my second character that took apart Ebrietas and well a couple levels above that video, this is the one Ramyeon cooped with as I was leveling her up a bit:

Woah! I've nearly platinumed Bloodborne (just need to finish the story one more time) and I've never seen that thing. It must be in an optional chalice?

Incredibly rare spawn in root chalices.
That's in a Chalice Dungeon in front of a boss entrance door. Never seen those enemies myself. They are probably in a level 5 root chalice dungeon or sinister chalice dungeon. I haven't done any of those yet myself but they are known to have some unique enemies.

So apparently I haven't seen every enemy...that just looks disgusting, hope I never see it.

I've done a couple of depth 5 Root chalice but I've never seen it before.
Took a quick look and I was unable to find anything looking like that enemy in the official guide....
.... I looked at all the pictures on every page of the beast chapter and the chalice dungeon chapter.
IDK. Can someone translate the text on that page?
EDIT: Google Translate gives me "Divert the Masamunesu"
EDIT2: I tweeted ENB. https://twitter.com/dekubleep/status/627115865960521729 Wonder if he will respond.
Wow this game just never ceases to amaze me and I've been doing chalices non stop for over a month now.

I've gone through every chalice, excluding Lower Ailing Loran and Defiled last bosses, and a couple of root chalices, and I've never seen that creature.Could it be from the upcoming expansion? (be still my beating heart)

Ah, I was already thinking that's a pretty good accomplishment, although beating the later chalices at any level is an accomplishment. =) I think I was also around level 95 when I beat Ebrietas in the main game. Finished the first playthrough at level 100.
KittenMaster posted above that it's a really rare spawning enemy in the procedurally generated root chalice dungeons. Doesn't surprise me it's not in the guide if it's a rare spawn in the root chalices which aren't even covered at all by the guide.
It's so cool that so much effort was put into an enemy that most people will never encounter.
Oh I missed that! Thanks! Do we ever get to know this enemies name?
Apparently that amazing Bloodborne hunter statue is going to cost 36,800 yen... That's like $400 Australian (Around $300 US)... I was so keen but there's no way I could ever justify that There's even a blood soaked version coming out next year.

Never saw that dude, yesterday got attacked by a Cainhurst bloodbeast in a phumeru boss rom.
Just some low notes.
Drink the Iosefka blood like 10 times each time you do go try talk on the clinic door where she is for extra lore.
Send the beggar to the clinic or
he will kill all the NPC on the cathedral everytime you change zones.
to kill her of jealousy, try to use the nun's blood more than the red lady before rom
Gasgoine wife will dissappear after you

They pop up when you visceral an enemy. I only really do it to shit in rooms I have no plan on circling back to. I think I saved Ramyeon last night from one because he couldn't just run passed the damn thing.

It's just my whim but maybe
Viola was ascended by Oedon and became the Wet Nurse. Maybe Oedon ascended her into a formless great one for Mergo and in that process killed her body. Gascoigne sees her dead body and goes insane. After which he gives in to the thirst for blood and soon we find him.
