I'll keep working on my char while waiting til midnight, I guess. Staring at the countdown screen hoping that time would speed up got old after a few hours.
What's the highest level you guys think I can still get jolly co-operation reliably? After I hit 50/30/50/50 I've been putting points into BLT/ARK just because and now I'm at 150-ish, I could keep going for a full 50 for damage stats but I don't want to kill my chances of finding people.
Well I would assume there are lot of people with lvl150 characters going in the DLC. Also if you use password it ignores your lvl totally and scales it down to hosts level.
Midnight local time it seems. Atleast psn store countdown for me shows 3 hours atm.
edit.

Gamespot absolutely ruined one of the bosses and weapon with their fucking stupid youtube uploads. Why would you even put the names in the title? Absolutely livid. Don't know why I even bother trying to go into stuff blind anymore.
It's a valid question though. I don't think dark souls 2 has a new game plus scaling for dlc at all. I could be wrong though. Glad to hear I can jump in with my ng+ character and have a challenge.

In preparation of the DLC, anyone to help grind 6 vermins now? (5 to use for covenant and one to keep in inventory)
We could do an easy chalice dungeon or two just for that, and I'd help to do the same if you want.
Either we use the official neogaf password for matching or one we decide.
Feel free to PM me if you want to help me, and want me to help you in return.

Go to the Bloodborne icon on the XMB. Then scroll down to the "Related Items". If you've pre-ordered it should show the timer. Mine is at 9:35 and it's killing me.
Edit: There you go
I guess I'll stick with my lvl 220 main. At least to get all the weapons and Hunter tools. Unless I'm one shotting everything. Then my backup Vash The Stampede will get to gun everything down.
If you are outside of the summoning range which is calculated with (10 + (summonerslvl)*0,10). So if you are 3-4 levels apart your level won't be scaled.

Keep in mind that skill characters get way higher Visceral damage. My pure Strength character with base Skill does around 1400-1500 with Viscerals while pure Skill character does around 2400. I still prefer Strength weapons and builds though.

Funny enough I'm the complete opposite. I might go skill/strength for my next character for the pizza cutter, but I love the skill weapons and visceral damage boost.

I love Visceral damage boost also but I think it is bullshit to give it to one build while others dont get anything similiar. Skill builds are by far the best builds in the game and if you also bumb BT you destroy everything with ease.
The world-state advancing to nighttime is the trigger. This happens when you kill Vicar Amelia and inspect the skull on her altar to watch a cutscene that gives you the password to the Forbidden Woods.
If it's nighttime in your gameworld, or you've triggered the blood moon, you'll find an item in the Hunter's Dream. Once you have that item, go to Oedon Chapel and get grabbed by the Amygdala.

My NG++ character has 35 str, 50 vit, 50 skill and 50 bloodtinge. Tore through the first two bosses in the game and still managed to almost one shot most of the enemies. +10 cane and chikage is probably the best balanced weapons combo for base game.

Skill weapons all have weaknesses and gl fighting chalice dungeon ebriatas when she NEVER gets visceraled. Also which weapon is so great, the threaded cane that doesn't stagger enemies, the blades of mercy that require you to go toe to toe with every boss and get up close, or the burial blade that isn't fast enough, or strong enough to deal enough damage quickly.
Also lets not forget that of the three skill weapons only the threaded cane can use fire/bolt paper.
The bloodtinge builds are insane, saw Someone take down ebriatas just by shooting her in the head with a pistol.
I'd have to +10 the Evelyn since it's already +9. I know the DLC would still be a challenge with that character, but I'm thinking of using my level 74 skill/arcane character. +6 LHB with fire gems, +7 cane and BoM should be a pretty effective combo. Should still be able to use a new weapon or two I'm going to hope.

Kinda hate that beating the game just spits you out in NG+ and since I haven't played since I beat the game getting to where I need to be for the DLC is considerably more difficult but at the same time just starting a new character is extremely unappealing to me. :/
