Lawd give me the patience to not snap the controller in half.
I need a break, a long break
I've been ramming my head at the boss in this area for way too long.
Got that fine note, though. Fine, indeed.

I know I shouldn't laugh, but the "fine note" notification popped up at the perfect time there.

Stuck at Ludwig. Level 65, is my level too low?
nah, that's more than enough for Ludwig, I was still in the 50's when I cleared him

I haven't gotten him to his second form myself yet. I can do it when I'm helping people, but haven't beaten him yet.

Every time I join someone to help against Ludwig they always die. I start attacking immediately and try to keep him focused on me but as soon as they get in there he destroys them.

How are Dex builds in BB? I've only played with my Str character so far, but want a good excuse to play around with the Bowbloade and the Rakuyo. What are the best Dex weapons out there?

Ludwig beaten, just as I had given up hope!
Wow I managed to make a black woman in this game.... I must be an artist or something haha
Skill gets shafted in BB. Go STR or Arcane if you want to have fun.

a lot of my threads involve me fucking up somehow. Perhaps I'm a moron?
I have a question regarding chalice glyphs and the items contained within.
I've typed in a code for a particular chalice, as there is an item I want. However, after creating the chalice twice, I've yet to find the alleged item. Is this randomized? I thought the whole point of the codes was to get the same chalice each time?
I'm quite frustrated as I've been farming ritual materials for like a week to get this specific dungeon, and the whole point of it was to get an item that seemingly isn't here. What the hell!?

it depends.
gems are randomized; items such as weapons and runes are not.
the latter will always show up in the same location in shared glyphs.
What item is it? If it's a Blood Rock you're after, you can only get like 3 of them from chests before you need to start grinding the Chalice bosses.

It is indeed a gem. Godammit I wish I knew this beforehand, just spent a ton of insight getting the FRC stuff. AHhhhhh!!!! RAGE!!!
edit: Woohoo! I didn't realize you could just continue farming the same chalice as the enemies obviously respawn (duh). Got my gem!
I never thought I'd see the day that having the PS4 shoulder button press in when setting it down actually did something good. I didn't know the Whirligig could do a continuous attack with L2 until I put the controller down and saw the long attack, I thought it was a bug for a second or that the game froze.
This may seem trivial but does it bother anyone that enemies have no damage modeling? I mean like cuts and blood all over them after you have slashed them with a gigantic blade.
I guess on some enemies they do get all bloodied up but it would be nice if From added that extra detail to all enemies.
Anyone else agree?

Oh man, what I would do for a Bloodborne 2. Bloodborne was a massive success for sony! Why wouldn't they make a sequel?

Dafuq is the trick to Laurence's second form? Can't get close to that dude...
I can help you out man if you need a co op partner. CJ_SPARTA

I appreciate the offer but I gotta do this solo. That last form I just cant seem to get behind his ass.
For some reason I also can't buy Chunks from the Insight shop. I'm on NG+ and have never set foot into a Chalice Dungeon...

Maybe it could take place in a different setting.
They're supposed to show up after defeating The One Reborn.

You need to stay really close to him and inside to his left, and dodge inside to his left when possible, even though it means stepping on lava now and then. This is particularly true when he starts doing his crawling chaos slapfest.
If worse comes to worse, just try and bait him out into vomiting everywhere, because that's probably the single most punishable move in the game. And just hope his AI doesn't randomly decide to do his Ultra Magical Auto-Tracking Overhead Btichslap 30 times in a row, because there's absolutely nothing stopping him if he feels like it.

Nah man, there are still interesting ways they can take the story. We still haven't got the chance to smack the bastard down that impregnated Yharnam and Arianna, for example. Need to kill that SOB, hahah.
Definitely - going to where Eileen/

You mean
Oedon? He's specifically described as 'formless'
Kos him/her/itself

I don't recommend getting behind him at all.
The method that finally worked for me was to stay mostly in front of him and bait his swipe attacks. You can get jump attack in, then back off, and repeat. When he spews lava run to his side for a charged attack. The big threat is his hand smash combo. Try to get around to his side and make him circle after you when he does it.

I'm trying to kill those 2 big fish like monsters in the Fishing village, the ones in the well. I'm level 191, NG++ and those motherfuckers wreck me... Is there a good strategy for them? I can't do coop since I killed the boss of the area... Must've died 15 times there already, I can't give up since they drop
.
I'm using Ludwig's +10, DLC scythe +10, tried fire damage, arcane... They're just too damn aggressive and when I take one down to 50% life the other one drops down. All hell breaks loose....
Tips please?
those blades of Maria

Use a Shaman bone blade on one of them or cheese them, jump down the well so the one on the ground starts patrolling the area, go up the ladder and make your way to the lighthouse hut lantern go down the elevator kill the two wintern lanterns and just hit them from up there, careful though they can still hit you.

Sorry for the weird question but I was wondering if anyone ordered the Old Hunter hardcover strategy guide. If so, do you know when it's coming out? Was looking at my open orders on Amazon today and I had forgotten all about it.
December 11th it states for me

Awesome! Thanks for the reply. Amazon isn't giving me a date. It only says they'll email when it's available. Fingers crossed I get it.

Yeah him. I know about his moniker, obviously. I am just kinda pissed that the dude that basically caused the whole thing in the first place--way back from the Pthumerian era--and the one that inflict such pain upon one of very few decent characters in the game--get away basically scot-free. I am sure they can also invent ways for he PC to smack him around, hahah.
Basically just try to stick close so he does his physical attacks instead of the big skull thing. The physical attacks can be parried and when he goes to phase 2 you can mostly ignore the sword he puts down and try to get him to do the flying attack, it's fairly easy to dodge and then punish if you don't go too far away from him. Phase 2 physicals cannot be parried.
Blunderbuss is a good gun and any long single handed weapon that does some bolt damage seems to work well. God I love bolt damage. In NG I originally beat him with the Ludwig Holy Blade but that was tricky because its one handed form doesn't have much reach, went with Burial Blade for my NG+ round.

This is incorrect. You can also parry him in his 2nd phase. In fact, the very first time I defeated him I was using a visceral from the front to finish him off.
I took it literally, as in Oedon is actually formless, hence the immaculate conception with both Iosefka and Arianna. I suppose Oedon could possess someone but it'd still not be actually Oedon itself, I'm assuming Oedon's an immortal Great One.
Also the blind Chapel Dweller is the only decent person in Bloodborne bar none.
I can confirm this. I just beat him yesterday with Ludwigs+7 and also finished him off with a parried visceral.

Stay close to provoke him to use his physical attacks and then parry them. Just shoot once his scythe is at the highest point before striking. Worked every time for me. Once he summons the swords, lock onto them and shoot them once, they will instantly vanish.
Stay a little further away in the second phase to get him to use his jumping attack. It's really easy to dodge it and then you can get 2 or 3 easy hits in. If you want to risk it, it's just as easy to parry him in his second form. If he doesn't use his jumping attack when you are away from him, he will most likely sprint at you and do an attack combo. I was able to consistently parry the first strike after him rushing at me.
I thought Iosefka didn't get pregnant but that
she stole a cord from Master Wilhem, tried to consume it to enlighten herself but failed unless I'm tripping hard

You get a key for that if you finish the questline from the NPC in that area.

Look for bandaged heads on the ground that you can talk to. Hit hem.
Haven't Souls game always been like this? The game is saving almost constantly.

No. It was originally going to lead to somewhere (I think the bridge where you fight the Cleric Beast) but it got cut from the final game.
