It's just a chalice ingredient.
Circle strafe. It totally saved my ass in that fight.

Thanks and frankly I have no idea :/ when I rewatch it, I wonder what happen there since the blade should have clearly hit me since it was a horizontal swipe. Unless there is a iframe when firing which I doubt.

You know there's another boss right after celestial emissary in the upper cathedral right?
Fast weapon only. Don't try to use anything 2-handed.

I only heal if the other person heals, i think its a double-edged sword. It makes the duels really long but it also makes the victory more exhilarating. Maybe you should join reddits pvp chalice, seems more old school with the "rules"

After 10 tries against G
I somehow just straight-up massacred him.

Thats when the Bold Hunters Mark is best used, that way you can go cash in those echoes and then try to hike it back to where you became lost.

Thanks I'll check it out.
Here is a video I tried to post earlier but was having some trouble doing it from my phone. It was the final battle with
. You can skip ahead to about the 6 minute mark. That's when the fight got really good and ended in epic fashion. The way it ended the last 2 minutes made it my favorite boss fight in the game. It was my first time fighting him too. Got him down on 1 try.
Tips for those having trouble: Be very patient, wait for his combos to get done, then go in. Don't try for more than 2 hits cuz he will counter and take a big amount of your health. When he is using the Blunderbuss, be ready to roll and then move it to attack right after. And finally, again, be very patient.

9/10 matches I had on the Frontier were with non healer dudes. I think I've been very lucky with PvP so far.
Tried that chalice and it's very fun and theres a lot of action (although I still get faster matches on the Frontier, but maybe it's because I can't match against lvl 100 players at 80).
DLC may or may not happen. If you want to make a new build I would say go for it. I was going to stick with just my first Quality (STR/SKL) build but ended doing a new Bloodtinge character and I'm enjoying it a lot.

Trying to get everything first time round so bit of advice needed - I'm only at Cathedral Ward/Old Yarnham lamp....
I've been in the door to the left of the white lady, I came across a giant who went upstairs to a gate I couldn't open and went downstairs to clear out some enemies including a guy with a large ball and chain. Nothing much here though except a door I open later i guess. I've also been in an area further down where I've opened up a shortcut leading down into a tomb but am also blocked form progressing there.....
I've been straight ahead and killed by Dura I guess, but I want to keep him friendly. What's my best course of action here?

I've been sitting around at BSB helping people and I decided to try invading since there's the Bell Women in the area. Got matched 1v2 and destroyed both of them.
PVE has been super tough with the Blades of Mercry, but fighting some human enemies made me really appreciate it.

I just can't beat Amelia, please help 
If you want to be friends with Djura you need to
Beat Old Yharnam
Get kidnapped so that you can access Yahar'Gul
Initiate fight with Darkbeast Paarl (victory isn't needed)
After that you need to go to Djura from behind
This should work.
I just can't beat Amelia, please help
What level you are?
I was finally able to kill that bastard G

Made quite a lot mistakes, but none that were fatal luckily.

Too low for my character to help. I think that is little bit on the lower side also since the recommended level seems to be around 35. Bumping up vitality will probably help. You can also get your weapon close to +6 at that point.
Ok I'm a bit stuck, could someone tell me where to go:
I just killed
This opened a door by the C.D. lantern, I went through there and up a kind of tower and found a locked door that I don't have the key for. So then I went down and found some pit but I can't find any way down the pit, I just fall and die. Am I meant to be going one of these ways or somewhere else entirely?

You have to carefully fall in the pit. Fall from ledge to ledge until you hit the bottom.

I get to a point where I just can't see any other ledge to fall onto. I'm going to look up a video. First bit of the game that feels a bit cheap to me tbh.
No I didn't, have come across that boss yet.
You can either
go down the pit, you can do some jumps to arrive down there safely. Down there, there's a path for the Cathedral ward, where the next boss is
buy the key from the messengers at the Hunter dream for 10k. It lets you skip the pit area, opening the big door where the giant is patrolling, near the lamp.
You need to go to the pit. It is little tricky but you can look for video guide how to do it if you are having lots of trouble.
You can also buy the Hunter Chief Emblem so that you don't have to go through the pit but that costs 10k echoes.

I think most of us felt that way. It's all about execution and reading the boss's movements. You can do it!

Defiled Chalice complete!
Ais pretty easy. It's just the risk of being one-shot that makes it hard. Also once I figured out thatmygdalamakes the last bit of the fight much easier, I beat her first try.staying underneath her once she rips her arms off
I couldn't believe she didn't just stomp me. i guess her reaction makes sense cause
she ripped her arms off and can't defend herself when you're underneath
I don't think it is shitty. That place just looks more like secret area than progress.
I liked that to be honest. You don't know what you're getting into and that sense of 'should I even be doing this' is pretty cool. Then you progress forward and you get your reward. Pretty neat.

Finally bested A

after several attempts (with a blood vial farming session between. Ended up being my favorite boss fight in the game.

ENB encourages vial usage, too. Yesterday I had a guy pop all 20 vials, took about 5 mins, and when I got the kill it felt so good. I'm not sure why people are saying it takes 30 mins if their opponent uses vials, maybe try being more aggressive.

He has some good points. I just started pvp so I don't have any strong feelings one way or the other. I was just used to no healing from the other games. But he is right that the fights can be really short. On the other hand if you get non stop matches I don't mind fights being short.

Yeah I decided to pvp as I was grinding for chunks. Saw the chandelier still intact so I just stayed underneath it waiting.
1. It was hilarious to see the reaction
2. I tried to do an honorable pvp of 3v1 but they triggered all the Wolves so I just stayed back... And then they triggered the brainsucker...
Beat this today. Amazing game. My first serious attempt at a From game, and what a ride. Just from perusing this thread and other stuff about the game, I feel I missed a ton of stuff. Not sure I will do much with NG+ but I will most likely create a new character. Took me 31 hours and I was level 79. I killed all optional bosses and beat the last 3 bosses on my first try (

Might have to dust off my copies of Demon Souls and Dark Souls to give them an actual try.
