^^^Congrats!

Only just acquired a PS4 and joined the hunt this week!

Bobio is a burly old man equipped with a Hunter's Axe, a Blunderbuss and a violent past.
I never go for full-on STR builds straight off the bat, so I decided to try with Bloodborne.

Just getting my bearings in Central Yharnam. Have yet to tackle any bosses, but I think I have all the shortcuts unlocked. Got about 8000 echoes saved up. Suppose I should upgrade the axe and level a bit before attempting Cleric Beast and finish exploring.

Let me know if y'all have any tips you care to share!

You don't really need leveling for CB but if you have bunch of echoes why not. Vit is probably the most important stat in the game so you should bump it often especially since weapon scaling starts to matter more on the endgame. One good thing to buy is the Hunter set from the store though you will find one in the Central Yharnam which is also really good set.

Since you are going for Str build check Kirkhammer after you beat CB. It is really good Str weapon.

Also buy Vials so that you don't run out of them so often.

Eclipse is fantastic and really changes the tone of the manga/anime from the Golden Age arc. I should go back reading Berserk and buy rest of the volumes.

You should you'd be surprised what you can tie to Berserk from Souls games. I'm quite sure Plague Babies came from Berserk.

I am at book 20 now and it has been great so far. Shame that Miura doesn't release chapters in timely manner. I am afraid that he won't ever finish Berserk. The Plague Baby design is really similiar and seems to be reference to Berserk. Even BB has bunch such as Watchdog and Hunter rune.

Based on what I'm gathering from the Berserk OT Miura is back to releasing stuff. Yeah the Hunter Rune I think is based on Guts' brand right? I have got to see what the Watchdog was based off of since Berserk has some of the craziest demon designs. Only thing Souls is missing is having mouths where a crotch should be, mouths on the front, back, and top of the head and penis tongues. I just finished up to volume 14. Isn't the LHB Guts' sword as well?

Hunter rune is basically the brand. Yeah Miuras demon design is basically just do a monster and slap a human face somewhere in there. As for the dog it appears first time in volume 15 or something.

Spoiler

I don't think LHB is based of Dragonslayer at all. I find LHB to be just your basic GS with some cool ornaments. Demon's Souls has DBS and it has the same description that Godo gives for Dragonslayer.

 

[JadedWriter]

Oh god damn, I should really get my Demons Souls character DBS then so I can smash False King Allant in the face with it. I love seeing those parallels though, From should really make a Berserk game.

There is another lift shortcut that takes you close to the boss. You get to it when you go up a hill from the swamp area with a pig roaming around.

 

[AEREC]

Im guessing the answer to my question is no...but there's not anyway to change hairstyles on my character is there? Sometimes I just feel like rocking some mutton chops but don't want to create a new character.

Also the hair options on this game are a little frustrating since all long hair has clipping issues that detract from the visuals.

 

[RiggyRob]

Yeah, from the Forbidden Woods lamp you should be able to go down the lift through the windmill to the right, then cross the bridge to the left and go down another lift in the other windmill, which shortens the boss run a bit.

I missed the lift because I was convinced the swamp with the fireflies had a hidden enemy somewhere (only know it's there because I watched Two Best Friends Play get to that point), but since I beat the

Level design is fantastic in this game and the loops are really good. You usually have no idea where you are going to end up and then you realize you are back at the beginning.

boss still destroying me though. I'm fine with phase one, it's when they morph into their second form that the attacks start to get overwhelming, especially the katana guy. His attacks seem to reach halfway across the map, maybe I should try and kill him first in phase one instead of the fireball guy like my last couple of attempts.

Also decided to check out Cainhurst, and man that is a wonderful area. So wonderfully atmospheric, one of my favourite areas in the game by far.

Ok now that I advanced further, I got some nit picky questions since I want to understand more.

I'm sorry if it bothers much, I'm still learning.

1) everytime I repeat central yharnam for blood vial farming (about my third time) i think they started dropping even less vials, will that point stop working for vial farming? Will the hunters dream shop be the only source at one point?

It's what I love about these games. That clutch moment when you've used your last flask/vial, are down to 25% health, and just when you think it's all over, you get him at the last second. Make's me want to listen to "You're the Best Around" from Karate Kid.

I haven't played Bloodborne since finishing it on Sunday, but I think I'm going to pick up NG+ and go for the platinum. Since the original Dark Souls I've done a blind run, and then go check out wikis and videos and see all of the stuff that I missed. I never found Cainhurst!

I have the Demon's Souls platinum, so I would like the Bloodborne one on my account as well. I played the Dark Souls games on PC.

Hi guys, BB newbie here, just killed Gascoigne (didn't have too much trouble with him or Cleric to be honest) and I have a few questions:

What is the best skill weapon in the game? I'm rocking the cane at the mo, should I just stick with that?

Can I pick up/buy the pistol anywhere? I went for the blunderbuss but kind of wish I picked the pistol because the range is shit.

What is the deal with insight? I have 7 at the minute, is that good?

Any other tips I should know about? I don't care about spoilers.

Thanks!

Cane's the best skill weapon at the start, I think it'll be a while before you find anything better than that.

After Gascoigne you should be able to buy the pistol from the bath messengers next to the doll in the Hunter's Dream, but I prefer the blunderbuss because it's more of a guarantee that you'll be able to parry attacks (the pistol does more damage but has less of a chance to parry IIRC).

Insight's what you use to summon co-op players to beat bosses, and it has some other effects that only become apparent at 15 and 40 Insight.

Frenzy can be caused by a number of things, the main thing to watch out for is if the bar fills up completely, it'll take 80% of your health out in one go.

Edit: also, what is frenzy? How is it activated? What does it affect?

- Blades of mercy or Burial Blade, the first one you need either complete Elieen (you might found her already) sidequest (which is quite further into the game) or with her death she will drop an item that give you access to buy her weapon on the messenger's shop, so to get it as soon as possible that's the way to get it. Burial Blade requires ending NG on a certain ending, so you should go for Blades of mercy. But the cane is good too, specially as a crowd control weapon.

- The pistol should be avaliable at the messenger's shop in Hunter's dream I think (like all the rest of starting weapons you didn't choose)

- Insight is like humanity in souls games, more or less, you can use it to summon people to your world and there's a secondary messenger's bath in Hunter's Dream that sells items using Insight as currency (for example Gaiscoigne's set is avaliable after you kill him). It also has some secundary minimal effects, (some enemies gain new attacks, the more insight you have, for example) and it reduces frenzy resistance.

- Frenzy is a negative status effect produced by some enemies, it inmendiatly damages the character, killing you unless you have full hp or close to it. Some sets and runes (which you'll unlock later) give you more resistance,insight reduces that resistance but is not really notorious until you stack of lot of it.

- The best tip I can give you is to focus in a few stats, if you are a souls player you should know about this. But just in case. Aside from that, is better to just enjoy the game.

But I prefer the blunderbuss because it's more of a guarantee that you'll be able to parry attacks (the pistol does more damage but has less of a chance to parry IIRC).

But also the pistol fires faster, but easy to miss because is a single bullet unlike the pellet spread of the blunderbuss. Is basically a matter of preference.

The Cane, Blades of Mercy and the scythe are all good skill weapons. You can buy the pistol anytime when you get the saw hunters badge in the sewers I believe. Insight acts as another form of currency at the shop and effects your frenzy resistance. It's bullshit and you don't really have to worry about it till later. The guards carrying crosses at the church well give you frenzy, but they're not too bad once you get good a managing their range. Insight also gives some enemies new attacks at 15. Best tip would be to not send any NPC's to Iosefka's Clinic unless it's that cannibal in forbidden forest.

Cane is really good skill weapon. Only one with better scaling is Blades of Mercy but I think the Cane is better.

You should be able to buy Hunter Pistol soon enough if you explore whole Central Yharnam.

You can use insight to buy stuff and it is the currency used for summoning. Then there are some stuff that affects gameplay like

Spoiler

at 15 insight enemies gain new moves and are maybe little bit more aggressive. You start seeing stuff once you hit 40 and 60. Also the higher your insight the lower your Frenzy resist will be.

Then the Frenzy. It is your new favorite status ailment. Once the bar fills up you will lose 70% of your max health. There aren't that many enemies that cause it but you will see them soon enough.

 

[NinjaBoiX]

Thanks a lot guys, very helpful!

If the blunderbuss offers a bigger parry window I think I'll stick with that rather than the added range of the pistol.

Might just kill Eileen to get her stuff early. I assume you get extra items for completing her quest line than from simply killing her though?

Just know the pistol is much faster at firing and better for bosses generally. In PvP it can go either way but people generally don't make that many mistakes and the speed of the pistol helps.

 

[gift of 100 gab]

Not sure if the parry window is bigger but the blunderbuss always staggers enemies for a moment even if the parry fails, which is not the case with the pistol (which can parry at a longer distance instead)

 

[NinjaBoiX]

Cool, I'll just grab the pistol and use either as and when required now I know their pros and cons. Thanks guys.

Another thing, why is coldblood dew stacked in three separate slots in my inventory? I have 8 currently but they're across three slots (6 then 1 then 1), but they have 1,2 then 3 in brackets next to them, it's wierd...

Sorry for all the questions, just clueing myself up with this stuff! I have 13 insight now, enemies are going to get even more aggressive soon.

 

[gift of 100 gab]

The coldblood numbers in brackets indicate their value - the higher the more blood echoes they're worth. It goes from 1 to 12 where 12 is worth 20,000 iirc.

It's maybe too early to call but bosses feel easier but the game itself is probably a little harder. It's quite different, a lot faster and more reaction based than souls.

I've been parrying him but I can't seem to do it consistently, especially in Phase 2. Phase 1 is easy (ish). I VA him when him plonks his staff down at the start of Phase 2 but then I can't keep up with him. The air attacks where he's directly above me really do me in.

I made some more blood vial runs and they seems to be okay, may be that run didn't turn out well.

Also, that hidden place seems to be the only place I found above Central Ward, I think Gerhman suggested me to go above oedon's chapel, but the door above seems closed.

If you ever check MH4U (the superior MH, jk) you will find a new weapon called Charge Blade, which is another "trick weapon" that switches from SnS to Axe mode, it is regarded as one the most complete and complex weapon in the series.
