Ahhhh, that new OT smell. That new Patches smell.
After taking a short break from the game due to being stuck at three different bosses, I came back to it tonight and managed to conquer two out of the three: M
and A
. The first one I nearly exhausted my blood vial supply due to a lot of hasty retreating and failed parries, but it only took me two tries tonight to conquer him, and considering I spent at least ten-fifteen tries on him before giving up I don't think it turned out too bad. The second boss I finished on my first try tonight - granted I'd only tried him a few times before thinking I was "stuck" - seems like taking a break and collecting myself instead of being overwhelmed was a good idea.
Tomorrow night, E
is going down!

Thanks for the tips for Abh. B., I'll try again tonight or this weekend.
I would say the OST/sound design is among the greatest ever made and in a wider scope than video games. There I said it!
It fits the game perfectly and creates a dreadful, depressing atmosphere.

Ok. almost got him last time.
What about when he does the huge left/right arm swings? That usually backs me up into the corner and the second hit flattens me... then he crushes me.
I didn't know the cannon damage was patched.

I got really lucky in my run, when I got invaded the adversary helped me clear out that room before we fought to the death :3
I won.

Just checked the patch notes, a shot requires 12 bullets now. *Shrug* I don't use the cannon anyway.

You must become one with dodge. I think if you stay close there's no air attack, which annoyed me the most.

His first phase is easy to parry, but I had difficulty getting the timing down in his last phase. I could still pull them off, but they felt lucky more than skill. I usually tried to bait attacks and roll through. Get 1 or 2 hits in and then back off. That worked the best for me and finally got him.

One of the best things about this game, IMO, is the masterful way it weaves the two primary themes together.
On the one hand you have the gothic horror theme that we all knew about before the game was released. And on the other you have the Lovecraftian horror theme that came as sort of a surprise. The game moves between the two in fascinating ways, and as you figure out more about the lore it's really interesting to discover the underlying relation between them.

Need 1 red Jelly and its behind a boss that is a right pain in the ass,
If I removed one of the chalices where I got some before and redid the ritual would I be able to get some that way?

Nope, pre-patch she did it too, just very rarely.
Nah she did that quite a few times in my first play through. Freaked me out the first time too haha.

Na, she can be there from time to time. Sometimes even saying a prayer at the grave.
Edit: Herp derp, minutes late.
So ever since I started NG+ I've been using the
. At first i dug it pretty hard, it looked cool and it felt very different to my saw spear. And even without being maxed out, it came really close in damage. But I felt like the speed with which it swung and the stamina drain didn't really seem advantageous. Vicar was wrecking on me something fierce this time but I destroyed her when I swapped back to the spear.
The speed, stamina management and the ability to actually buff it on the fly with papers makes it seem all the better.
Has anyone here spent more time with the former than I did? Maybe I'm just not really using it appropriately. Also since I'm not going for a lvl capped build it really seems like Ludwig's is gonna win out over everything in the end.

So in the forest, anyone have any suggestions on how to easily kill
? I've been using the Ludwigs' thrust attack but I feel like there has to be an easier way than that.

Ah the trusty gun. I keep forgetting to use that.
After clearing an area is there no way to get the bell maiden to appear again?
Press forward on the stick and press R2 at the same time, you'll do a leaping attack. Do this from a distance then immediately backstep and wait for their attack to finish, the repeat. You can kill a lot of enemies in the game with that method.

I did an entire playthrough of the game and NEVER saw this. 70 hours or whatever. I'm on a fresh play now, trying a kirkhammer based char.
I just picked up the music box. Never got this on my first char. I also never knew you could talk to a guy by the central yarnham bonfire on my first playthrough. I'm not shitting you.

If you go to him
a few times after some events you will get different dialog, and eventually he gives you the flamethrower weapon.
Then when the moon turns he turns into a monster and breaks out of the window and will be nearby. :C

Super dumb question, but something the enemies in Central Yarnham say has me puzzled. One of them says "You ????? rat!" It sounds like "hadrian" but I know it isn't. Any idea what that mystery word is so I can know what kind of rat I am being called by these filth.

No kidding. I did a spoiler free first run, just finished the game in this way last night.
Thought for sure agreeing to it would open the final dungeon or at least the final boss or something. Instead, I wrapped up some odds and ends here and there, and the game just fucking ended. What the hell..
I mean I figured there'd be optional stuff yet, but what the hell is the finale then? If C

Not really feeling starting over. Where's the drive for it? Might keep mucking around in the unending chalice dungeons, but they're pretty dull 5 Pthumeru dungeons in. The game hasn't encouraged the chalice dungeons so far.. Almost all the loot is just more items for more dungeons.. Give me a cool weapon or something for once. I didn't play a dozen hours of chalice dungeons for effing Tomb Mold.
Haha... Oooh boy. Great game, I think, but really bummed out in how aimless it seems, especially near the end. Demon's Souls was way more epic and had something of a climax.
Sigh.

No, they're just NPCs with pretty good AI.
