No really, get fucking good, this boss is actually really easy.

>>324433475
I didn't even find it that hard to be honest, took me 2 tries.

The spiders are about as braindead as the boss itself. Don't try to spam R1 for the second and third phase and you should be fine.

From literally gave you an anti Rom weapon in the DLC because you babbies kept complaining.

Beasthunter Saif literally hooks up underneath the spiders and you can kill them from the front and bypass their armour.

Then there's the whirly saw which you can effectively oneshot the cunt with.

No excuses.

Better learn the fight now. One of the chalice dungeons puts you against Rom in a tiny room.

Learn how to hit and run.

>attack everything from the side

It's really not that hard once you figure this out.

>>324433475
Use Tonitrus. How are you getting one shotted by the spiders?

>>324433475
ignore the spiders retard

Just stay on the move and ignore the little spiders you fucking retard.

The best thing to do in this game is to be as offensive as possible. Don't be a fucking faggot and you'll succeed.

>>324433475
Killed her in one try, how about you learn to fucking dodge instead of spamming R1 fag.

Get your cannon and win. 4 shots and it gets dropped.

>>324435624
I thought the cannon was nerfed.

You didn't have enough VIT. You should have at least 50 VIT by that point in the game.

>>324436381
50 vit is pretty extreme, but I know for a fact that you can tank the spiders hits anywhere above 30 Vit

>>324436192

>>324433475
All you need to do is run around in circles until you find a chance to hit a spider, and then once they're dead, do the same with Rom. If you do it that way, it becomes a pretty long fight, but it is 200% retard proof; you literally cannot fuck it up. You will never get hit.

>>324437049

For new Souls players:
Get the minimum stats for your weapon, then cap your Vit and End.

>>324437192
Madaras is at the start of the level, I don't want OP to die on the way there

>>324433475
Right now I'm using the pizza cutter and the church cannon. good or not?

Also with the pizza cutters spin to win this boss went down in a minute

>>324433475
I always kill Rom before he can teleport, just skipping the annoying half of the fight. It has a really low stagger limit

>>324437195

>>324437082
Yes actually. Bloodstarved isn't that hard.

>>324433475

Even then it was easy enough to avoid them.

They can be dicey.

If one of them pulls that high jump move from off screen and you don't see it coming you're about to eat a fuck ton of damage.

It's impossible to keep them all in front of you and pure mobility isn't possible either.

This is mainly why people hate Rom. It's a chancy fight at times.

It's truly shitty in the Chalice Dungeons.

>>324433475
Ignore the little spiders. Focus on Rom, you vacuous fuck.

>>324437879
You can lure them away from the main group. This >>324437980 also works, but wouldn't bother unless you stagger his first teleport.

It is, I think it took me about a minute to kill Rom with a +7 Tonitrus.

Use a quick weapon, pop a beast pellet, kill all the spiders in the first phase when rom is idle, run up to rom and time your charged r2 so it hits when he is just about to teleport to stagger him, kill him in 30 seconds without having to deal with phase 2 or 3

It's one of my favorite fights because it's actually different than BIG BOSS hit hard; the fight requires lots of fun kiting.

>>324439216
I did most bosses on max 2-3 tries but this shitty dog took me like 10+ attempts because of his bullshit instant kill attack. Amydgala defiled was also a bitch and I couldn't get past her without cheesing the fucking part which she tore her arms off her back and goes apeshit.

>>324438979
You're posting the easiest boss in the game, that's what.

Seriously I beat this guy with a +3 blades of Mercy with very little Vitality, all of his attacks are incredibly slow.

Disgusting. Anyone who thinks the solution to a bossfight is to crank up the easy mode and chug blood vials has no valid opinion on any of the game's bossfights.

The only objective way to measure the quality of any of the game's bossfights is as an unleveled waste of skin character.

Beat Rom first try and I still really loved that fight.

>>324439528
The problem isn't his normal attacks, you can Iframe abuse them easily, the only problem are both his leaps. I don't think your vit even matters when the dungeon is defiled.

Of course. Regular watchdog is piss-easy.

He's hard but he's completely doable. Hell, you don't even need to kill the other spiders, I just roll to his side -> charge attack -> get the fuck out. Rinse and repeat. If the spiders are too close to him just lead them to you and them move in.

Honestly, the souls games and bloodborne generally have very poorly designed bosses.

I'm not talking about difficulty here, but just being shit.

For example they love trying to balance a shitty and poorly designed boss by throwing in a bunch of normal enemies (too many examples to count). Another twist on this is simply make a boss and then make you fight several of them.
Some are just downright jokes (most recent example is living failures).

The games have some genuinely good boss fights, but most of them are honestly just bad.

Which boss gave you guys the most trouble? I'll rank mine here, starting with the most deaths I've had all the way to the bottom and fewest deaths (excluding Chalice Dungeons, including DLC):

>Orphan of Kos
>Ludwig the Accursed
>Father Gascgoine
>Blood-Starved Beast
>Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower
>Vicar Amelia
>Rom, the Vacuous Spider
>Cleric Beast
>Martyr Logarius
>Darkbeast Paarl
>The One Reborn
>Shadow of Yharnam
>Amygdala
>Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos
>Laurence, the First Vicar
>Living Failures

Killed these on the first try, so they all share a bottom spot:
>Mergo's Wet Nurse
>Moon Presence
>Gherman, the first Hunter
>The Witch of Hemwick
>Celestial Emissary

>>324440474
>For example they love trying to balance a shitty and poorly designed boss by throwing in a bunch of normal enemies (too many examples to count)

Such as? I'm legitimately curious which bosses feature a lot of summons?

>>324440970
Gascoigne, because before BB I'd never parried once in any of the souls, and none of those enemies really chased you down like he did in his second form. It was a brutal fight for that early in the game.

>>324440771
Freya isn't hard, it' just tedious to have to run around the boss to get at the weakspot, AND, if you have a torch out, the little spiders hang back, there, anti frustration measure, quit bitching.

>>324441161

Yeah, I agree, Gascgoine was damn near impossible when I first played BB (this coming from a "Souls veteran" who had beaten the previous 3 games) for the same reason. I always played Souls with a shield and took it slow. I think Gascgoine is the most brutal casual filter in all the Souls games (second maybe to the Capra Demon).

>>324441049
im not the baiting guy but there's a couple of examples:
Ellana
Skeleton king
looking glass knight
royal rats guard

>>324438979
The only reason this guy is hard is because the hitboxes are absolute shit on half of his attacks. That and you having half health.

>>324441319
I would definitely put him on the same tier as Capra Demon. A fast enemy in a steady poke game is going to throw a huge wrench into most people's game. I hate that I had to summon to beat him the first time, but I'll be damned if I had any real trouble for the rest of the game(until I hit the chalice dungeons).

Orphan of Kos is pretty much the only boss that has killed me more than 5 times.

Still haven't beat him but I'm running a shitty build so will probably just say fuck it and stomp his shit with a real build soon.

>>324441530

I worded that wrong. I meant "the second one being the Capra Demon." Gascgoine is definitely much tougher (IMO).

>>324441481
Is that a lot, though, friend? That's probably like 5% of all the bosses, maybe even less.

>>324440970
Gherman
Ebrietas
Amelia

>>324441621
That's probably right, once you dealt with Capra's dogs he was pretty well dealt with himself.

>>324441561
Did you do the defiled chalice dungeons yet?

>>324441049
>Such as? I'm legitimately curious which bosses feature a lot of summons?

Do I really have to list them all?

In Bloodborne alone you have

>hordes
celestial emissary, rom
>clones
shadows, witch, living failiures

This is also ignoring chalice dungeon bosses like the watchers.

But the problems with the designs are not limited to the copypaste either, many of them are just simply poorly designed.

I mean how many boss fights in Bloodborne alone can compare to Gascoigne? Not only because of the fight itself, but the lore and buildup surrounding it. I mean you even had an item tie into all of this with the music box which had a practical use in the fight.
Now compare that fight to Celestial Emissary, which is just that mass rat boss copypasted from dark souls.

>>324441561

Orphan is pretty tough. Phase one you can take it slow, and always dodge to your RIGHT (his left). P2 is hail Mary time, you really need to keep dodging backward to avoid the blood (?) burst grenade things and just stick close to him otherwise. You'll know he's gonna throw them when he leaps over you into the air. You can parry him in both phases, but it's not recommended unless you're really good.

>>324441635
as i said you're not arguing with me, though i found almost all of those fights obnoxious

>>324441763

Also to add, when he does his scream in P2 it means he's doing that ground lightning AOE, and you can get a few good hits in there because it takes him a few seconds to summon that shit. It ALWAYS comes from the body of Kos on the beach, so if you're fighting near the water or right by the door you came through then you can outrange it.

>>324441826
I liked all the fights except the shitty defiled dog and amydgala, different strokes for different folks, I guess.

>>324441759
"poorly designed" what do you mean with this? That is like your opinion and I respect that. My opinion though is that a lot of bosses had huge sweeps and 1 hit ko attacks, that doesn't necessarily make it a bad design though, just a choice I don't like.

You're really overestimating the value of stats in these games, you can be at 99 and still die like a bitch. Conversely, you can win the game without levelling anything.

>>324442142
I'd also argue that yes, some of them were pretty badly designed. Let's take elana as an example and let's compare it to Ornstein&Smoug.
Elana is essentialy Elana+1/2 Veladtad/s so i feel like the comparison is pretty fair.
Orn&Smo design is so good because individually they're significantly weaker than a single boss, thus letting you manage to fight two of them at the time; moreover when you do kill the first one the game recalibrates the difficulty by making the remaining more powerful, giving you again a balanced 1vs1 fight.
Elana is a mess: on her own she's like 1/2 of a regular boss and based purely on luck you could fight just skeletons, which are annoying but harmless; pigs, which are harmless, and veldstad. Now let's talk veldstad. Reduced hp or not velstad remains a full 1vs1 balanced boss, and this results in you having to dodge ten minutes before each opening to hit him or Elana without getting raped by the other... which would be fine, couldn't she summon more and more guys over time. This makes the bossfight a speedrun to kill velstadt fast enough, while making it such that the opportunity for hitting the boss are very little and far between

>Boss who can be reliably stunlocked until you exhaust your stamina

I thought she was pretty easy. The only annoying part of her is that the range on her blood attacks is almost impossible to predict until you've just seen them and gotten hit by them.

>>324443782

>gascan a bitch

>>324443758
Yes, exactly. Hated her fucking fight. You forgot to mention velstad almost insta killed you.

I hate fights where you have to wait a lot before actually hitting the boss, that may be one of the reasons I hate bloodborne's giant bosses since their attacks have such a great range.

I liked your insight on the bosses, mind doing the same to shadows of yharnam?

>>324443898

>bosses in depth 5 chalices

>>324444327
Not him, but Shadows are like the reverse of a lot of the chalice bosses, where you fight their weaker versions in an area and the boss version later with a few added moves.

>>324444604
whirlgig saw is fun but also OP if used on any beast enemy, recommended if you have a hateboner for laurence

>>324444604
That sword is a bow in its tricked farm and basically lets you completely shit on every boss in the game from a distance.
Amygdalan Arm is pretty cool. It's normally a club but when you trick it it's like a whip thing and the arm has a mind of its own and does extra slashes after your hits.
For Str there's also the Whirlgig/Pizza Cutter which is both fun as fuck to use and ridiculously overpowered.

>>324444693
I got that one already, didn't like the moveset nor the weapon design. I thought it was too slow.

>>324441561
Orphan of Kos killed me for 5 hours on ng+. Fucking hell the attacks came out so fast and parrying most of them was so fucking hard and that second form was basically Bloodborne flipping the table.

It's the only boss where I didn't feel like it was unfair that I was dying so much, that I literally wasn't good enough to beat him.

>>324437879
>It's a chancy fight at times.

i have probably reacted to off screen spider jumps a dozen times or so and been hit by it two or three times, its literally the only thing they can from offscreen so its pretty easy to keep in mind

>>324443559
It's not a fear. Morons confuse disgust/revulsion with fear/phobia.

>>324444439

Yes, I would assume you played through the DLC at a very low level. Very impressive.

But using a weapon after having access to late-game upgrade materials on a boss where you should have, at best, a +3 weapon and saying "this boss is a bitch" is kinda dumb.

>>324444604
Beastcutter is a str version of the cane with range, Whirligig saw is a super stronk pizza cutter/mace, Bloodletter is a fucked out mace with an aoe that frenzies yourself, and the Amygdalan Arm is a hammer that lets you poke fuckers with a big hand.

So what the hell is the connection between the thing in Ebriates' room and Rom?

>>324444604
The Strength weapons in the DLC are pretty much just the Whirlgig Saw, Amygdalan Arm, and the Bloodletter as far as I remember. Both Whirlgig and Amy's Arm are pretty ridiculous. Whirlgig shreds absolutely everything and Amy's Arm has insane stagger in its club form and can knock even most bosses down to the ground with the charged R2 of the tricked version

It goes so fucking apeshit in its second phase, he's practically unreadable. He can travel through half the area in a mere second and lightning attack is seriously unpredictable, even landed on me once.

Still a excellent boss though.

>>324437879
It's relatively easy to herd them to one side of Rom and create an opportunity for you to get some hits in
It's way safer to just kill them one at a time though, I don't see how people have trouble with Rom unless they're specifically trying to just kill him as fast as possible while hoping they don't get hit by the spiders

>>324443205

Anon, HOW DO YOU THINK I GOT THE FUCKING WEAPON?

You undestand how I got it but you don't understand why you sound like a retard.

If I got an endgame weapon at a low level, then I had to get to the fucking weapon at a low level.

And if I had to get to the fucking weapon at a low level, guess who I had to fight at a low level.

FUCKING GASCOIGNE YOU LITTLE SHIT.

Just because I posted a video of me wearing endgame gear doesn't negate my claim that he's a bitch considering I had to go through him to get to the fucking weapon, are you seriously this retarded that you cannot comprehend this?


You can also get to +6 before fighting gascoigne, but I wouldn't expect someone that's never played the game to know this.

>in b4 I played the game.
If you really had, it wouldn't have been difficult to grasp the concept of having the go through gascoigne to get to the weapon you're complaining me using against him.

The spiders don't one shot you

>>324445637

I can't understand why people say DaS gets worse in the second half. Lost Izalith is somewhat undeveloped, yeah, but New Londo and TotG are great.

>>324442905
It gets even worse once you do the Cursed and Defiled dungeon because your max health is halved and all magic/elemental damage simply one shots you.

>>324433475
I really don't know why people went for the spiders. They take like no damage and there's obviously way too many to even motivate you to take them out.

The spiders even move in a certain way that looks like they're defending Rom, rather than actively chasing and attacking you

That doesn't look like his NG+ HP; it looks about the amount of HP he would have on NG with summoned help.

I've never tried it before, but can you not use your small resonant bell in areas where you've already killed the boss? The other guy in that webm is the summoner so he could have gotten the bowblade, gone back to Gascoigne's boss area, then gotten summoned and beat the boss with late-game stuff.

>>324433475

This guy wasn't really *that* difficult.

The version in the Chalice dungeon, however, was a total bastard.

So, I guess what we've all learned today, is that a bad Rom is one that has a lot of bugs in it?

When he does that buff mid-fight that lets him deflect bullets, it's a free backstab; just go behind him and do a charge attack as soon as he starts it up. Not only is it good damage, but it stops him from getting the buff.

>>324445858
>I can't understand why people say DaS gets worse in the second half.
A lot of it is backtracking, story-wise it feels convoluted and tacked on. going through shit you've been through a dozen times for a little extra area at the end just to go through the piss fog.

Also the yellow fog gate bosses are all boring or annoying, fourspics are just a tedious dps race. Izalith is literally RNG death drops, Nito is just a DPS race to see if you can wack him off before the zerg shows up. And the only way seath can even be considered a challenge of any kind is if you decide to diddle his bumhole for glass canon sword. and even that is trivialized if you have some bukkake magic.

>>324446261


Get gud

Otherwise, you might want to just put him off and come back later if you went to Cainhurst early.

As for the actual fight, either get gud and learn to dodge *into* attacks so you are right next to the guy as he recovers.

Alternatively just stay a moderate distance away from him to bait him into his dash/flying attacks that leave him vulnerable.

Hey guys, I'm having difficulty with Amygdala in the Chalice Dungeons and was curious how you may have beaten it.

>>324446261
Wear equipment with high blood defense.

Stay away from the edges of the roof.

Learn to recognize his melee attacks in order to parry them.

When you're fighting him close-ranged, he has a tendency to use that quick blood skull blast. To circumvent this, dodge to the side if he's facing you in close range.

He has an attack that causes blood swords from the sky to attack you. To stop this, attack the sword that he plants in the ground.

-Returned to the Gascoigne boss vicinity, either in your game or in NG+
-Get summoned to fight Gascoigne in the game of someone in NG, and wipe the floor with him with your high-damage weapons

Do you want to discuss shit or are you just gonna meme spout?

How can you not understand claiming gascoigne is not a challenge and using a weapon that you get after him are not mutually exclusive.

Your "argument", your only argument. is that I can't claim he's a bitch because I'm using an endgame weapon on him.

But you've clearly never played the game, weapon is affected by stats, not by how far in the story you find it, the fact I'm wearing endgame gear on a level 15 character should be enough to show I clearly have a right to claim he's a bitch, considering I beat him, blood starved, witches, and Amelia, and Simon at level 10 before even upgrading anything or leveling up to bow's base requirements.

But somehow you're getting so assblasted by the fact I'm using the bow and calling gascoigne a bitch that you can't comprehend this, you're literally reducing your argument to the fact that I'm mad at you.

Its not mad, anon, its annoyed, and why wouldn't I be annoyed with you? I literally feel like I'm arguing with a retarded child

I also don't understand why you're dirrecting me to a reply you made to someone else, I know how resonant bells work, and your explanation, none of it, makes literally any difference.

The question is, why are you getting so defensive over the fact someone claims gascoigne is easy? Did you seriously die to him that many times that you can't shut the fuck up once someone calls him easy?

>>324448728
Every weapon scales with Arcane actually. But I meant to imply that weapons have stat requirements before you can hold them and sometimes you find something you're curious about and want to try out

Laurence's last phase is just a cunt. It seems so easy so you let your guard down but then you get stuck in one of his attacks and are dead.

>>324449279
Yeah I really hate his last form. Especially his crawling attack that hits 7 times with little hope of rolling out of if you get knocked down. I try to bait it out when I have a lot of room to run, but sometimes he just never does it until I'm cornered.

I figured out that it's best to stay on his side while he hopelessly crawls -around- you instead of running directly away from it. The most you'll have to worry about then is walking into is lava, which is minimal damage

Saying a boss is easy is one thing.
Saying a boss is easy to the tune of a webm where you use a weapon (upgraded well-past what it should be for fighting NG Gasoigne) and a partner to stunlock them to death is another thing. It's being presented as evidence that the boss is easy, but really it's just evidence that you came back to an early-game boss with late-game upgraded weapons.

Perhaps a webm of repeatedly countering and visceraling him would be better evidence of him being easy, which you can actually do at a low level. Or fighting him and never getting hit. Stuff like that. Saying "this boss is a bitch" and posting your own webm of you winning easily because you were using a high damage weapon on an early game boss doesn't demonstrate your own skill or the bosses easiness. Scaling is important, but it's not so important that you couldn't make quick work of an early-game boss with a +9/10 weapon at base-requirements.

>But you've clearly never played the game

You have to realize this insult mostly just makes you look silly and kind of crazy. I have played the game, so the more you insist I haven't, the crazier you seem.

>Saying a boss is easy is one thing.

And you don't see why I'm annoyed by you? I've literally replied to and explained this four fucking times to you, did you drink fucking bleach when you were five? Why are you this retarded? HOW DO YOU FUCKING BREATHE!?

go to hypogean goal, get tonitrus. that lightning shit makes the fight trivial

>>324448335

Yea, Chalice Rom is a total cunt. It is funny how in the normal version you are supposed to just run past all the spiders and be fast enough through each phase, whereas the Chalice version I am pretty sure you have to carefully kill all the spiders between each phase while dodging the meteors.

>>324434208

pretty sure the cleaver kills the spiders on the third hit of R1 combo no matter what too

Getting ready to start NG+, what weapon should I main? I've already got all of them, but not all at +10. All stats 99, I'll be fine with any suggestion.

>>324450603

That's a pretty high and mighty stance for someone who keeps falling back to "u mad" argument.

Rom is the absolute easiest boss in Bloodborne, and I tent to be a scrub in Souls games.
I even stuck around to be summoned for the fight multiple times, to verify it wasn't luck or some shit.

>>324439131

you've got to be kidding me. that was like the only chalice dungeon i ever did but I beat that faggot in two tries. basically every other boss took me 10+ tries to solo.

guess i could have been over leveled tho

>>324448306

Hunters Axe 2-handed charge attack is OP as FUCK. Just level up Strength/Skill (both eventually) up to 25 and let it carry you through the entire game or until you find another weapon that has a good vibe with you. Since it hits twice, there are *very* few enemies in the game that the whirlywhirl won't stagger, and you can abuse the range to cheese basically every enemy in the game, (and even some bosses, like Vicar).

>>324451305

That's not Micolash.

This is a true post, I beat him with poison daggers.

>>324442142
>poorly designed
>a lot of bosses had huge sweeps
Half the bosses in DaS2 were some variation of a giant with a three swing sweep pattern. They usually had a minor accompanying mechanic, but that was the bulk of it. It's less poorly developed, and more underdeveloped.

>>324451530
I think Micolash was the most disappointing boss in Bloodborne. For the Host of the nightmare you expected a devious and cunning man; instead what we got was a bitch who just ran around in circles giving lessons on pronunciation

>>324451629
He's only good for his dorky dialogue.

>>324451839
It's a good balance of dorky and unnerving.

He's a waifufag who unlocked a portal to the nightmare dimension. He clearly wants to fuck Kos or some say Kosm.

>>324451976
You don't even need a fast weapon. 99% of the time he'll either try to tentacle rape you or punch you if you're up close, and Infinity Big Bang Storm can be dodged easily by stepping in AFTER it fires off.

>>324446261
parry his shit
stay close to him so he doesn't do his retarded magic shit

>>324451530
It goes to either Micolash or Witches.

I'd say Micolash since I died by the Witches in one grab ;_;

>>324452417
Witches with 0 insight is more of a miniboss than anything else.

>>324434093
>Don't spam R1
You just said the impossible for 80% of bloodborne players

>>324452472
he did say "by one grab" He probably got hit by a stun spell, in that case doesn't matter how much insight you have, you're fucked.

>>324452551

MotherFUCKER, I'm retarded. Never thought of that, Anon. Thanks.

>>324452472
Is it insight that determines if you can see them or not? On my first try I could see through their invisibility, like there was an aura. But when I came back I couldn't

>>324447782
Is that Berserk?

>>324452797
>Is it insight that determines if you can see them or not?
It determines whether or not she can summon her minions, I believe. So basically you just run up to her and hammer her face with your dick until she dies.

>>324452797
It's proximity-based. Just move around until you find them. They don't summon adds with 0 Insight.

>>324452620
No you weren't, you're just one of ten million pricks that literally just waits for witches to be mentioned so they can scream "0 insight" like they're being fucking raped.

>>324452756
All of the magic bolts will land behind you. It took me a few playthroughs before I figured it out myself, though that's mainly because it was after the DLC came out and I wanted to try a bow build.

>>324452705

yeah that's probably what's fucking me over but i'm too used to quickstepping now, can't go back to rolling

Calm down, fag, nobody cares.

>>324445858
New Londo is great but it's a pre-lordvessel area really
ToTG isn't that great, neat concept but it's very linear and exploration is essential for dark spoopy areas like that, Catacombs is GOAT but is also pre-lordvessel
Archives is shit except for the prison area
Crystal Caves are shit
Demons Ruins and Izalith are super shit
Let's not forget that there is no great boss in post-lordvessel either. We got:
>nito, whoopee
>"unskippable cutscene you just want to get over with"-tier "bossfight" in dukes against seath
>fighting seath again in Crystal Caves and he is again shit
>A fucking red asylum demon
>A fucking centipede

4kings is the only decent one, and even they don't really compare to the fights of the first half.

Literally the little spiders never killed me. Only Rom rolling over onto me once and the ice/crystal missiles like 2-3 times.

>>324452942
No, like I could see them from across the room as a red glow, but only on that one attempt.

>>324453019

Why is BB so much easier than DaS2? ;3

I think that might be the first one spawning and the reason is that she's already spawned in on every fight after the first loss.

>Its not mad, anon
>did you drink fucking bleach when you were five? Why are you this retarded? HOW DO YOU FUCKING BREATHE!?

I get that "u mad" is a meme, but there's only so many ways you can phrase it when someone is clearly very worked up. You're not even arguing at this point, and I doubt you even read my full post.

Let me put this in the simplest way possible; to bring Simon's Bowblade back to help someone beat a NG Gascoigne, you must have beaten Gascoigne at a low-level with regular, un-upgraded equipment. Good for you! You must then have beaten Maria and possibly all the bosses at this low level, and then gone back with your Bowblade. Impressive!

Now, your thinking is that this gives you the "right" to say that anything you beat at that low level is easy. But you didn't post a webm of you in a fair fight with Gascoigne, beating him with your skill and timing. You posted a webm of you mashing R1 with an upgraded weapon and a teammate. The location of the weapon in a late-part of the DLC is irrelevant; the location of the weapon at a point in the game when you have access to chunks and rocks, however, is important, because it let you upgrade it to the point where wailing on him a bit made him die. It is not evidence that the boss is easy, or that you had an easy time with the boss on any preceding runs. I'm not saying you're bad at Bloodborne if that's what's getting you worked up, I'm just saying that you haven't presented any real evidence that you're good. The only evidence here is a webm of you cheesing a boss.

>>324451185

It's really not high and mighty at all. I just played the game. If he said "you suck at the game" and I said he was crazy for implying that, that'd be kind of high and mighty, because it would imply I think I'm better than him and most players. But if it's a yes/no thing like "did you play the game," I know he's 100% wrong every time he says it.

That's not a phobia. There's a part of everyone's brain that reacts to that specific pattern instinctually. You aren't a special snowflake. It's like how you feel your skin crawl when you see a ton of ants crawling around.

especially after the next try I just ran in and killed the two enemies before he even entered it himself

I killed Rom first try with a hit and run strategy. I like bosses like this where being careful is a good way to fight it.

>>324453605
That's what I love about it, he's not even close to reaching the level of understanding he's after but he's so enraptured by his devotion that he's lost control. He's an absolute ideological zealot, it's so fucking good.

Yeah, I had to play up to Rom to get one worth duping.

Logarius Wheel is The Trusty Gavlan, Memesaw is Gavlan's Special. It's what he uses when someone tries to get away without dealing.

>>324433475

So why do Soulsfags defend Rom as an example of good boss design but hate any example of multi-boss fights in Dark Souls 2?

Doesn't Rom suffer from the same flaw that Dark Souls 2 bosses often have of being difficult only by virtue of being swarmed by large numbers?

I haven't played Bloodborne. And I quit Dark Souls 2 halfway through after beating the four Lord Soul rip-offs because the game got fucking boring. But I looked at videos of the Rom boss fight and it seems like the tactics is no different from fighting Duke's Dear Freja.

So why is Rom praised? I guess the setting is cool.
