I couldn't find her. Which was annoying as fuck until I just ran through the whole area to get to the next lamp. I know pegging it past enemies is a valid strategy throughout the entire game, but I prefer to kill every motherfucking last one of them.

+15 HP, +5 Vials and hmmm -7 Physical Damage. Do you have these or going to get them from chalice dungeons? If its the later, let me know the code
Yep! I have all 5 of these. a few I needed to grind for the materials to make a likewise dungeon in order to use the glyph to access said runes.
I'll look for the passwords and send them to you in a bit.

Just parry and visceral the hell out of him. Has slow enough attacks to make sure you get it almost every time and
Even his transformed version has signs when he'll attack for easy visceral too.

Boo this man. Gif. Haha
Ill be like Lvl 120 by the time I hit the end... Doing all chalices for fun.
I get him to transform no problem, use the music box, charge R2 him, then he goes ape shit. I didn't try to visceral him while he is transformed. I will give that a shot. I also just realized you can use the music box more than once. SMH...
Yay! Although now I'm sad I have nothing more to conquer. Come oooon DLC
Lee Chaolan

I believe on NG+ the music box has different properties on how long they stun him or how quick it
transforms him
Best of luck bud ;o

Do what I've been doing. Get the short ritual root chalice if you haven't yet, so you can quick join co-op others beckoning bells for quick fixes, go after the really good runes in the game like the ones I mentioned last page, and if you're at the end game, help out with the final boss fight.
Oh god. Sounds like I'll be jumping back in
. So is it hard to find others to join at a high level? I think I'm around level 155 now.william_557

I sold the 2 red jelly i found to the bath messengers in the main game. Am I boned?
Don't even bother with them - hightail it past then onto the right!
You'll then find a shortcut that leads outside so you've never got to face them again! Those assholes scurry far too quick.
Haha, oh man. I'm sure you can find enough still (hopefully). I had to dive into the Lower Loran Chalice just to get more to open up access to another. I was annoyed.
Edit: Is there any place that actually shows you what round you're on i.e. NG+, NG++ etc?

I'll ask this again since it probably got washed over. Really curious about how this will work out now.
Regarding the endings...
If I've already
Regarding the endings...
If I've already
initiated the fight with Gehrman(fog gate is up), but have not consumed the umbilical cords, could I defeat him once without, then load up the same save with the fog gate? Just eat them, then go back in? Would it register for the umbilical ending?

just beat the game. whew, 1st souls game I beat. Really liked the game, definitely a nice balance between how long it was and difficulty. I do wish my build wasnt up to my liking. Went half/half in skill/bloodtinge and ended up using the evelyn and chikage. Didn't feel like I did a good amt of dmg
Clutched it out against moon presence with iosfekha's blood. Only had like 2 blood vials and that at the end and was sweating pretty hard
I don't understand why anyone would ever sell anything in a Souls game.

Same here, if you need echoes/souls, just go kill some enemies for a couple of minutes.

Damn it had I known how hard ng+ was going to be I would have leveled up before beating the last boss :/

If you are new to Souls, it really isn't apparent that you shouldn't sell things or that they would be difficult to get back. There are quite a few things about the series you need to have a feel for, and would likely make a mistake with if you aren't aware. Lord knows I screwed up a ton in Dark Souls, but haven't really made any major mistakes at all now.
Like attacking a shop keeper or other NPCs....
The oppressive atmosphere always wears me out too. I would love a more cheerful and populated game that kept the tightness and design. A few new ideas wouldn't hurt either.
I sell the doll's outfit every time, and the weapons I won't be using. Extra blood shards (holy shit those things pile up), blue elixers, leaden elixers, pungent cocktails, shaman blades, all the shit I never use.

When you are carrying the same armor 10 times maybe? I had 10 of each part Alonne knight set in DS2, why would i want to clutter my inventory like that?
I sold them for 20k to Gavlan instead.
It takes ages for me to scroll through all my gems but I'll be damned if I sell a single one!

Why would you want to keep the weak ones you get in the beginning when you have countless better ones?

It's a prize for defeating the third boss in the Lower Hintertomb Chalice. Bosses there are pretty damn tough of course. You'll get the Lower at the end of your current hintertomb boss.
you're going to be featured on the next episode of hoarders.

I'm Level 148, and am able to to join with others as low as 123 from the original formula, which may have changed (for the better) with the new patch according to others.
I sometimes have to search 2-3 times, but never anymore and can find people with the Short Ritual Root Chalice with no problem.
Going after the extra runes is fun too. So yeah, lots to do still before the DLC inevitably drops ;p

Did you ever make use of storage on the off chance you'd use something like a blue elixir?
Well, I'll agree with you on this point. I certainly didn't need the hundreds of Broken Straight Swords I picked up in Dark Souls. But Bloodborne didn't really have multiples of weapons or attire, with stuff like Hunter's Trousers being the exception.
I think the only thing I sold in Bloodborne were low level gems that were of no use to me.

Haha I posted a big NOPE picture on twitter when I got that too. Scarier than
Rom
I've started 15 characters and beaten the game 4 times. I haven't used a pungent blood cocktail, blue elixir, or leaden elixir, not even to try them out. It's not going to happen.
Did some endgame co-op yesterday to level up for the Chalice Dungeons (at level 3 of the Defiled Chalice)
People who summon you for Gehrman and then send you home with the Silencing Blank during Moon Presence are history's greatest monsters. You get no Blood Echoes for your troubles.

lol what? Why would somebody ever do that? :/

WTF thats some BS lol
I'm guessing they're sending me home and then losing/reawakening to MP so that they can get Gehrman's weapon without going into NG+

Hmm, that's the only thing that makes sense if they couldn't beat

So I'm progressing, slowly but surely.
I made it to the building after the hounds in cages(still Central Yarnham?). I think that's where you first fight the hunchbacks? I fell down to the bottom floor and got ambushed by giant rats. -_-

Shit, I have to
I'll save this for friday.
Shit, I have to
fight Rom...again!?
I would have liked to experience a better fight. So many people hyped him up and at level 109 I could basically just stand in front of him and chug a vial every now and then until he got more aggressive near the end.
Was such a disappointment.
Have you unlocked the shortcut near the lamp?So I'm progressing, slowly but surely.

And yeah, you're still in central Yharnam. It's a pretty big area.

...which shortcut? The gate by the Central Yharnam lamp, that allows you to bypass the bridge? I currently have three lamps lit: the starting lab/clinic, Central Yharnam(by that coughing guy that hasn't given me that fire weapon, on top of the first giant ladder), and the bridge where you fight Cleric B.
