Well, there's a lever to the side of it. Before you can go to Amelia you also have an option to buy a 10k echoes item to open the gate from the other side, with a prompt.

As much as I love the Hunter Axe, for this fight you need to swap it out for the Saw Cleaver. I'm using two flat arcane gems with +67.5 arcane damage and -10%ish damage vs. kin in the first two slots, and the +18% arcane attack up gem from Nightmare of Mensis in the third slot. With the cleaver and higher damage, you can afford to be a lot more aggressive in phase 1 by relying on staggering him and breaking limbs to knock him out of attack animations - so dodging forward and to the left through most of his attacks is the way to go.
Also the Saw Cleaver gets +20% damage against beast enemies in the folded in form, so you get even more damage from that. Surprisingly it seems that Ludwig phase 2 doesn't count as a beast
Good luck with learning phase 2, it's a total bitch with some seriously questionable hitboxes at times (http://gfycat.com/CarelessNegativeIbis) but you'll get it
Just gotta practiceholy shit, this battle with
(first boss) is so inspiring! I had to go with Valtr because it was impossible on solo..
are all the bosses these impossible?
also, anywhere I can farm for shards? I need a bunch to upgrade these weapons.. so many in just a fraction of the game
I can help you if you need help, but I don't know how to set a pass for co-op

Yeah his lightning attack is ridiculous. We finally got him though. Thanks for the help.
Yep, it's dumb. When you see it coming try to get to the entrance of the cave.

Okay. So I'm in the big round courtyard, I've cleared out all the beasts and hunters. There's a small tall gate and the a wide gate. No levers or anything?

I'm developing a new-found hatred of sharks.
I can lend a hand
I'm not gonna lie ..... Valtr is a better summons than most human players.
If you were to ask me the best way to beat the first boss of the DLC it would be.
1. Summon Valtr
2. Learn moves
3. Kill it
Adding a 3rd person adds too much health and valtr is a better summons than even I am for the fight lol

The flame boss is not amelia, it is an optional boss and you need an item to wake him up. You find it later in the dlc.

no more insight lol
Thank you. That means I'm stuck then, where do you go after Ludwig? I feel like I've exhausted every avenue.

There are stairs in the back of ludwig's room
Oh that's not good.
Yeah and I got "there's a hole in the skull". Nevermind, I'll try and figure it out.

i am on my way
What level is a good level to start the DLC in NG? My main character was in NG+++ already so I didn't want to set myself up for some extremely hard dlc, so I made a new character. At level 50 and just finishing Rom, would this be a good point to go in or am I still too feeble?

Are you around lvl 100-110, have a +10 weapon and 18%+ Att gems? You're good to go.

i was around 120 when i did it on ng+ and had some difficulty in the beginning, especially the first boss. it was my first time back to bloodborne after a 5 month hiatus so i forgot how to play.
