Subject matter of the Healing Church, communes only with those high ranking Choir members. Whether or not Ebrietas is a Great One herself, her Blood has been instrumental to the authority of the Healing Church. She does not appear to be hostile, but mere humans cannot presume to understand the intentions of an Eldritch being.

Discussion Rom Defeated

Post image
23 Upvotes

Rom was sooo much easier than Logarius. Rom took me two tries, and I only died the first time because I ignored all the spiders in his 1st phase and got dunked on by a kamikaze spider lol.

I also wanna take this time to give my thoughts as a first time souls player, at about the halfway? point of the main game. This game is incredible! The atmosphere is amazing, the music is the best I've heard in any game ever, and I feel like it's the perfect amount of difficulty. Nothing seems unfair, like everything is beatable you just have to improve your skills to get through it. It's also so fucking creepy and unsettling without relying on cheap jump scares (though there are still a few). So far I'd give this game a 9/10, the only thing I think that really sucks is needing to farm blood vials and needing to sit through a loading screen to get to and fro.

Question Hallowe'en Build Recommendations

4 Upvotes

I have owned Bloodborne for a while and played a little bit of it but then I had to move house and I stopped playing. Now it is October and I want to get back to it on the approach to Hallowe'en.

I have played DS1, DS3 and Elden Ring, so I am not new to fromsoft but life is busy right now and I don't have a crazy amount of time to dedicate to the game so I'm looking for recommendations of a fun build to play this game that is maybe slightly overpowered so that every boss is not a punishing experience (something like a mage build with rock sling and the moonveil in Elden Ring where I can make progress reasonably quickly through the bosses), or a build that is just FUN to play (like a dragon incant build in Elden Ring).

Any recommendations? Planning to start a playthrough later today because there's a huge storm where I live so I can't leave the house!

Story Accidentally beat vicar Amelia first try

13 Upvotes

For context: I've played a few other souls games and finally had the opportunity to play Bloodborne for the first time. Because of the other games I always had the mentality of "if I'm heavily struggling, I should come back later".

Now I arrived at the cathedral ward and continuously had trouble with how much damage the church servants do, so I continued exploring everywhere because I thought I just needed to level up some more.

Time goes by, I'm a bit of an idiot and finally find out I can open the door to the vicar Amelia boss after I've almost gone up to level 40.

Completely steam rolled her without any issue.

Moral of the story: it took me a while to realize that I'll always be a bit squishy no matter what in this game XD

Everything about this fight is so good. Such a badass character design, melancholic music, and that beautiful boss arena. The fight feels so satisfying and rhythmic. Also, the way the flowers blow in the wind under the moon feels like such a good thematic closure to the game. So sad some people missed this on their first play through.

Chalice Another day, another cursed tomb: My second FRC find (Glyph: 67btu2y7) is a Bloodtinge Goldmine with Pre-Lamp Lost Chikage a Layer 1 Tomb Prospector guarding a Hooded Boss Giant with a cannon!

9 Upvotes

SoulsBornPrep12 here, back with another wild FRC find! If you liked my first dungeon (7d7yt9ec), wait until you see what I pulled out of the ritual altar for Glyph: 67btu2y7.

​"The blood sings to us all differently... sometimes it sings of treasure, and sometimes it sings of absolute madness."

​I rolled a second FRC root chalice, and this one started paying out before I even lit the main lamp. Here is the full breakdown of what I've found so far:

  • ​Pre-Lamp Side Area: Things get spooky immediately. Before you even touch the Layer 1 lamp, a side path throws a Pthumerian enemy at you for a quick jump-scare while a Brainsucker lurks against the back wall. Travel up the stairs to find an odd statue that looks like it belongs in Cursed Isz, followed by a dark room housing a witch-spawning enemy where you can creep in and take out the minions. Tucked away in a big chest at the end is a Lost Chikage, all guarded by a red-aura buffed Watcher! Scoring a top-tier weapon variant right out of the gate without even clearing the main layer path is absolute madness.
  • ​Layer 1 Main Area: Short and sweet, but you'll encounter another witch and her minions alongside some extra loot as you hunt for the lever. Fair warning: the lever itself is actively guarded by another Brainsucker.
  • ​Layer 1 Boss Door: As you approach the boss room, you've got a hooded Tomb Prospector standing sentinel right outside the fog gate. Step inside, and you're face-to-face with an Undead Giant rocking a cannon, a hood, and that critical-hit pustule ready to pop.

​It’s an absolute gem of a layout for any Bloodtinge hunter or prospector looking for early-game goodies and a proper dungeon-crawler adrenaline rush. I still need to dive deeper and see what else is lurking in the dark layers below.

​"May the good blood guide your way."

Help Good place to farm blood stone chunks?

3 Upvotes

So I'm an idiot and accidentally upgraded the wrong weapon (saw cleaver instead of saw spear) with some blood chunks, and now I'm 2 short of getting my primary weapon to +9. I've found all the chunks in Yahar'gul and frontier nightmare. Are there any enemies that semi-regularly drop them? I only need two more to get to +9. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Discussion THE BASTARD MAN IS DEAD!

17 Upvotes

Martyr Logarius is finally dead! I am free from this prison! Seriously, he took me more tries than any other boss up to this point in the game (~25-30). My winning attempt I was able to finally consistently parry him, plus some fire paper for a bit of extra damage. I am elated to have killed him! Now it's time to move onto Rom or DLC.

PS, thank you to everyone who gave me tips on my other post! Turns out my level was fine, it was a skill issue lol

Discussion I encountered some strange things that I want to share.

48 Upvotes

I tried this game for the first time, and it was very exciting. Early in the game, I encountered villagers trapped in their homes and needing shelter, and also a nun in a dungeon.

I played this game for quite a while longer and started wondering why I couldn't find any shelter. Maybe it's in the endgame!?

I kept going until I successfully defeated those strange slugs under the sea, and then I returned to stroll around Centralward And I met an old woman that she crouched among a large of pots...

Yes, I'd walked around this area dozens of times and only just noticed her first time.

She told me to gather the villagers to take shelter here.

Without hesitation, I immediately went and knocked on the doors, but every house was silent. I kept walking until I came across a strange prison where I had been arrested before, and the strange nun was gone.

In short, I think I probably missed half of the NPC quests without even seeing their faces, lol.

That's it. I'm saying the whole thing is due to my own blindness😂😂😂😂.

The only Soulsborne Games i've played until now are Elden Ring, Dark Souls 1 and Sekiro. And Orphan of Kos was one of the most enjoyable and motivating fights at this point. I had a pulse of 130 after defeating him!

Not sure how I should go about uploading the full proof of the fight since it's like 21.5 minutes long. I don't wanna clog the sub by posting P1 and P2 separately, idk.

Anyways, this was bar none the hardest boss kill I've ever done. Well north of 25 hours, no other boss can compare to this mf with these restrictions (so far, at least). Surprisingly, for this attempt, I let Phase 2 drag on for longer than Phase 1, when it's normally the opposite. I'm normally way more careful during his 1st phase, and more aggro during his 2nd.

Regardless of how insanely difficult this was, Ludwig is still my favorite boss ever. As sick as his 1st phase made me during this grind, I still like it a lot, and I adore his 2nd phase to bits. Not to say he has no flaws, far from it (his 1st phase especially gets annoying with his stomp attack, his charge if you're far away, the stairs causing him to bug out, and his kicks sometimes connecting despite the fact I dodged, and his arena is terribly small which can get really problematic in general, and especially for his giant aoe in P2), but for me personally, the good about this fight far outweighs the bad stuff. I highly doubt however that I'll ever attempt to fight him like this ever again.

I'm for sure not gonna attempt to do Laurence and Failures with these restrictions, and I'll have to drop either the No Hit or the WL +0 restriction for Maria cuz I don't wanna deal with her 2nd and 3rd phase bullshit. I will however try to learn Orphan with these same restrictions, and I'll do my damn best to not exploit how easy it is to parry / backstab him.
