drahkon Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 I don't have enough time to really get back into this Can only play for 20-30 minutes max and that is not really the time to make good progress Damn you, real life Still no news about that promised patch...network stability and loading times desperately need improvement.
somme Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 I find the loading screen a welcome respite from the horror.
Sheikah Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 Daft said: @Sheikah up for the third chalice dungeon later? Absolutely. I think I'm like L80 now or around there. But I should be on tonight, definitely before 9 at least (I'm planning on playing til late. )
Map Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 Finished this today, loved every minute excusing the odd bit of boss rage of course. I ended up level 88 with a 10+ Holy Blade as my weapon of choice. Reveal hidden contents Childhood beginnings, had to fight two bosses, both were good fun even if they both took a few tries. Think I'll do some more Chalice Dungeons before I start NG+, need lots of ritual materials though.
MadDog Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 Reveal hidden contents Been struggling against the Shadow of Yarnham, so I thought I'd go try defeat the Darkbeast Paarl. After using the advice of going for its legs, it was very easy. Think it was someone from here who mentioned that, so thank you. :p

But I managed to do ROM at least.

The lever will come in very handy in the future. Ahhh, I managed to figure out what I needed to do. Reveal hidden contents I basically "fluked" the Forbidden Woods. I found the shortcut that unlocks the door to the lamp at the start of the woods and I found out how to get that lever working, which operates the lift. I put on my white poison protection garments and tried to pick up as many items as possible. I even found my way to the boss and promptly died three times! I've been re-doing that section up to the boss so I know where to go. I've memorised the path now. Awaken at the lamp. Through the door to the lift. Exit the lift, turn right, down the ramp and past snake-head to the other lift. Past snakehead number two, turn left at the lake. Go through the valley of the pigs. Turn left. Boss. On a side note, I tried that boss and... Reveal hidden contents On my fourth go, I only had 9 vials and thought I'd just go for it anyway. I managed to kill one of the shadows, got another down to 2 hits away from him dying and had about 9/10s of the other left. Could have done it with twenty vials. Gutted. Map said: Well played @Fierce_LiNk two bosses in a day, bet you're glad you stuck at it now. Yeah, the woods can be disorientating but are worth exploring as rewards can be found. Thank you, I felt invincible. @drahkon, I played this tonight whilst listening to Origin of Symmetry and Absolution on Spotify. Edited April 11, 2015 by Fierce_LiNk

Babooo Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 Approaching Vicar Amelia soon, have been exploring and finding new shiz. Great fun so far. Looking to take above boss down today at some point!
Daft Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 Just downed Martyr Logarius at Castle Cainhurst. Such an awesome fight. Unsure of what to do next, though. Anyone else joined a Covenant?

Amazing boss that one, one of my favourites! I found two covenants on my playthrough, gives you access to some awesome gear. You can swap between covenants whenever as well so always worth joining.

Deathjam Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 What's the best way to deal with hunters? I struggle to deal with the ones that spam their guns - which is most of them

For @The Bard as well Reveal hidden contents I used the crown, picked up the invite, gave it to the other hunter. He killed the queen and then he died himself. So I have an Executioners Oath rune.

Yeah, Covenants are pvp/invasion based but can effect co op, if you summon someone for help and they belong to a different Covenant they can be hostile rather than helpful. You're only attached to the Covenant whilst you have the Rune equipped though. Reveal hidden contents Sounds like you joined a different Covenant to me? I put on the Crown, kneeled before the Queen and joined the Vilebloods. I never used the invite so that's obviously a Covenant I missed but I'll remember that for NG+. I also joined the Hunters Covenant but that's linked to an NPC quest.

Shorty Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 Anyone else have trouble with the chalice co op? Entered the appropriate glyph, rung the appropriate bell but never find each other.
Fierce_LiNk Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 I had another good night on this and... Reveal hidden contents Managed to take down The Shadows on my first go tonight. I came close yesterday with only a handful of vials but did it today going in there with a full 20. I never really had any trouble...I fucking LOVE the Kirhammer and Sword. Reveal hidden contents Ermahgerd, Berrgeeernweeeerth. I died at the fucking hunter on the inside of the building (the white one, no racist) four times! FAQ UUUU drahkon said: Bloodborne has an amazing soundtrack itself, but listening to other music during fights can be awesome, too. This was on during my fight against the final Boss of the first Chalice Dungeon. : peace: Dat breakdown. Man, Stockholm Syndrome must have been amazing. :awesome: Stockholm Syndrome was a killer, aye. The soundtrack is nice. A nice bit of Mogwai also works as it adds to the creepy atmosphere of the game. The Les Revenants soundtrack could have actually been part of this game's soundtrack and we'd never have known otherwise! Deathjam said: What's the best way to deal with hunters? I struggle to deal with the ones that spam their guns - which is most of them I'm struggling with one tonight. I guess dodging them is a start and figuring out how they move, since they all act differently to each other. For some, I try and stay close, then dodge and hit them. For others I might slash then roll away. Use fire paper/bolt paper as that can help A LOT. MadDog said: Reveal hidden contents If you kill the katana wielding one first, the fire spraying one doesn't attack, so just back him into a corner and swing away. It's pretty easy then. I did differently. Reveal hidden contents I went for the fire one first as he was annoying me. Then went for Katana guy second and finished off with the other one last. Katana guy was the harder of the three, I thought, but even then it was a case of just getting the hits in and dodging his.

Daft Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Can anyone help me with Micolash later? I'm lvl 80 but the fucker always spams me with an arcane blast. Even if I try to stay close he finds a way to get away for a second. Is driving me nuts because the rest of the fight is easy.
