as soon as you go down, circle the pillar to reach the first one from the back, low it's hp and then use a Shaman Bone Blade as soon as the first one goes near the second one, then... let-them-fight.jpg... kill the one left with low hp. That's how I did it, note that also died some times trying to pull that off P:
finally reached the fishing hamlet and got the bow, pretty good looking weapon, also the Rakuyo it's pretty good looking and with 25 skill points is doing good damage, still, I am playing with a Chikage build, so, any Bloodtinge weapon that I am missing? so far I think I have everything up to the FH, so if someone knows I missed one let me know :'D (I know there are some guns, but I lack strenght to use them)

i was too busy with the enemies didn't even notice there was a priest...
As long as we use a password it should be fine
Okay any preparation I need to do? I haven't joined the league thing with the vermin. Also my dungeon is called a shared dungeon already, but there is a code or something at the bottom right. I'm right at the last boss.

Beating the DLC doesn't start a NG+ or anything right?
On NG++++ at level 208 and it is insanely hard. Have done everything except two of the bosses,
and
. Think I may be done. I've put maybe six hours into each of them and getting nowhere. Co-op people arrive in my world and get wrecked by some of the mobs. It's nuts. Mechanically I'm there, but there is just no margin for error.
Might just wait until I do a NG and level up to a good place.

oh right, haven't been there yet.
Nope. No special preparation or anything but you can send me a PSN message with the password if you'd like. My PSN is the same as my username.

Having loads of trouble with the L

, believe it or not. I'm on NG++ and they're destroying me even though I'm 160+, going in with support and everything. The last guy died ten seconds into the fight.

Finally got someone to help me with Ludwig. Had about 4~5 summons prior who all died very quickly.
I'm only level 58, but I wanted dat Moonlight Greatsword. Now to consider taking my strength build to strength/arcane.

I still can't believe they went with a bowblade instead of a Simon's whip or combat cross. Such a wasted opportunity to not put in a well deserved direct homage to the Castlevania series that this game (and the Souls series in general I'd argue) takes so much inspiration from.
That said, the bowblade would be the weapon I'd be most interested in finding I suppose.
Did it yesterday at NG++ too.
I just kited them around. I mean, sure they keep spawning but there's a point that they don't spawn anymore, and they're slow, so concentrate on one but if you see that you're about to get ganked just run and hit the one that is alone/easier to hit.
The meteors can easily avoided by running or blocking them using the middle pilar with the flowers.
Atleast that's how I did it. I think it's easy but you can get really nervous when you see how they keep spawning.

Lvl 80/90 on NG+ is gonna be tough, mainly some bosses. You level up really easy though, lots of blood echoes.

I'm standing outside the boss area for
and I just took am moment to look at how amazing my character's tattered cape moves. Honestly it's amazing.

I managed to beat the first boss yesterday finally after hours of struggle. The second area is really great, and I just stopped after getting to the next boss. I am also happy to learn that I havent done anything bad to lose optional items or runes.
Very happy about the DLC as I was already by the time I reached the first boss. I love how many new weapons and outfits they throw at you. Didnt expect
to be available. I know what I will be maxing once I get more blood rocks.

The
in the well were my biggest rage moment so far, I could keep getting 1 really low but then the other would show up to ruin the party, eventually I had to cheese them using kite tactics and line of sight. I hate doing stuff like but I guess it was worth it for the special item you get.
Seriously question, does ANYONE know where the other
comes from? I checked everywhere and I never found another one to kill before hand. I'll be upset if its a random spawned enemy.

look above you
It's on the ceiling near the ladder, but it might as well be a spawning enemy since afaik there's no way to get it down without getting the other one to low health.

Well fuck me sideways. I guess its the same as a spawning enemy since we can't get it before hand but whatever. I like them as enemies, just not two at once.

Is the dlc harder if you play it in new game plus?
I stopped the game after i platinumed it but am now left right at the start. Of the game on my save file in new game plus! Had no idea I couldn't access the dlc from the start. Now I have to play up to the dlc access point and also it's harder than usual on top? What a terrible design choice.

Did you get the key from the dead Cleric Beast when you enter the church where you kill Vicar? (the nightmare version)
I somehow beat OoK on my first try. Probably had something to do with my level 10 whirligigg saw... Sure was a sloppy fight though. I recorded it for posterity and then deleted it after I saw how bad I actually performed. That does it for the DLC for me. I'm sad there won't be any more

On NG+ you should already have the option to buy the key to access vicar.
So you only need to kill father g and her. Just sprint straight to bosses. Shouldn't take long at all.
The difference between NG and ng+ is hard to work out. Plenty of people are playing it just fine on ng+. I just tried it on my NG+++ char and if anything I'm finding the enemies easier to kill than my NG char did. Both using +10 weapons. My NG+++ char has better gems and stats though.

Cheers for the tips, guys! I feel like it's within reach now I've got more of a strat. They hit like a truck though. Str46 and my Vit gets halved by even one of their flails.
Uploaded again videos of boss fights but now with Reiterpallasch build. For some reason I didn't save the second boss so no video for that.

so i'm ng+, level 99.
got to the first boss.
tried four times. managed to get one or two hits in. 190 damage.
this... is not really fun.
started a new character, because the dlc skill weapons are not cooler than my blades of mercy imo.
got to cleric beast. get hammered. have to farm for vials.

Did you buy new armor before you got to Cleric Beast? I made that mistake on a new character. The starting armor completely blows.

NG+ recommended to be 120 with at least 1 +10 weapon... Mostly the Ludwig... Since the first boss you need to go ham on him
I'll assume you killed her
SRTtoZ

Funny enough I was wrecking her with visceral attacks but then I couldn't land a single one towards the end of the fight and started to panic. I ended up killing her by just mashing R1 so I think her poise is pretty low. I think I could have just done that the entire fight.
