So between the saw cleaver and the hunter's axe, what's my best bet for a level 4 playthrough? Which should I upgrade first? Recommended runes?

You should probably use both weapons, since one will be better than another depending on the situation. Also clothes will probably not matter since everything past a certain point will instagib you

So I played Bloodborne on launch and went in blind and had a good time not really doing any specific builds and just playing the game at my own pace and having fun. I beat it in like 2 or 3 weeks and then sort of dropped it assuming I'd pick it up again later.

Well a few of my friends got PS4s and want to co-op now and I was thinking this would be a good time to start a new character and play the game again fresh with my friends.

I don't really care about PvP, so what's a good PvE build that I can do for new game and all the chalice dungeons and even maybe a few times into new game plus?
>>
I was thinking of going with the Beast Cutter and Gatling gun for the long range game. How should I arrange my stats. I was thinking of going
40 Vitality
45 Endurance
35 Strength
30 Skill
25 Bloodtinge
7 Arcane

Then I was thinking of trying the Boom Hammer and Cannon as a secondary choice
>>
>>128711450

might as well just do a quality build or STR build
>>
>>128711574
>>128711576
Okay, that sounds good.
Is there any particular weapons I should try to get?
I think I used the cleaver and the blunderbuss for my entire first playthrough.
>>
>>128711450
I found a high level skill/bloodtinge build to be the most fun since you have
>church pick for serrated damage
>bowblade to shoot stuff in the head
>evelyn to pair with bone marrow ash
>chikage/bloodletter for general damage if you want to

if you don't have the dlc I'd say pure bloodtinge could be fun too, otherwise try arcane although it's a pain to get the right gems.

Which form of the Cleaver is the better form? My friend is absolutely convinced the expanded version is better since he doesn't like the range on the folded version, but I feel like the folded version's speed and horizontal swing probably make it the better form.

Or should you be using both regularly?

Does the hunter of hunters rune limit your coop/pvp like the vileblood and executioners runes?
>>
>>128715371
it's still an incredibly laborious and long fight that's easy to fuck up.

I liked the story version because he had fairly little HP for that point in the game. It meant you could take some risks and damage him in different ways, and it compensated how if you want to play it safe, there are very few opportunities to attack him. Chalice dungeons seem to completely miss that point and shit all over it.

I love Magnus but his Lets Play is fucking maddening.

1. He never uses lock-on, he just fights.

2. The only attack he knows is fucking Trick Axe R2 and he spams it over and over.

3. He doesn't know about the stamina bar and gets mad when he wants to attack but can't. He doesn't figure out that with no stamnia you can't attack.

4. He doesn't see the other gravestones to teleport you other than Yharnam.

5. He said he will learn the game on his own and he refuses to read the chat or comments.

Watching Tyrone or whatever the fuck his name is, he is utilizing it pretty well.

For Gastapo he used hunters axe transformed charge attack when he was close behind and would end up hitting him anyways

Granted he still lost fucktons of health and got caught on geometry a dozen times but the charge attacks were spot on

>>128725632
That's good. You'd have 11 Strength due to your origin. If you bring Strength up to 14, it will only cost you two stat points instead of three, since you can switch from Lone Survivor to Military Veteran and drop a point from Arcane. Strength is decent for Saif, though obviously useless to Rakuyo. From there, you can drop end to 20 and grab the last point in Bloodtinge for Repeater.

So either

50/20/14/50/8/6 Military Veteran
or
50/22/11/50/8/7 Lone Survivor

Repeater is definitely worth it over an extra point in Endurance.
>>
>>128725339
I just don't like the fact that they can just spam dash to catch up.

But there is probably an age of sexual maturity. And the Doll loves the Hunter too much to put them under any sort of undue stress at such an early stage of their new life.

For future reference, the way to calculate whether or not a flat bonus is worth taking over a % bonus is to divide the difference in flat bonuses by the difference between the product of the percent bonuses. Then take the resulting number and divide it by your weapon's ungemmed attack rating. Any attack your weapon has with a multiplier below the resulting number will be optimal with the gem set-up that has the higher flat bonus of the two. Any attack your weapon has with a multiplier above the number will be optimal with the gem set-up with the lower flat bonus. Like so:

1.272 ^ 3 (3x 27.2% gems) = 2.058075648
1.248 ^ 2 * 1.272 (2x 24.8%, 1x 27.2% gems) = 1.981145088

2.058075648 - 1.981145088 = 0.07693056

You get 30 flat damage from two 24.8/15s, and 0 flat bonus from full 27.2s. So the difference is 30.

30 / 0.07693056 = 389.96206... (it has a lot of decimal places).

At 11 Strength and 50 Skill, your Saif has 180 + 180 * 0.3 * 0.08 + 180 * 0.7 * 0.85 = 291.42 ungemmed AR.

389.96206 / 291.42 = 1.338... (lots of decimal places once again).

So any attack with your saif that has a multiplier below 1.338 will be optimal with the 24.8/15 set-up. Anything above will be optimal with the % gem set-up. For attack multipliers, reference this: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1doP2HShMmJcHZFTNSZ3yVFxbUu4U1aO6yHIk9-wQ1Wo/edit#gid=222193878

>>128728504
This isn't a color-neutral light, it's clearly blue-tinged since it makes the Doll's face appear blue.

And the harsh white reflections are the moistness. The blurry mottled highlights, however, look more like internal organs seen through its skin;

There's a specific reason to that in-universe: the ring of betrothal is a religious artifact that only blessed couples (those supposed to give birth to a Great One) are allowed to wear.

Fair enough. The reason I use my method is that it allows you to compare gem set-ups across several different weapons very easily. I came up with it back when I was making an optimal arcane gem guide that was rendered obsolete two days later by the Cold abyssal buff, but if you only care about one weapon, then your method is a lot easier.

>>
>>128731063
Oh, okay. That makes sense. I did like the music that was playing.

Just to be clear, now that I've beaten all the chalice dungeons in the guide (and Hintertombs for that sweet Madman set), I should create a Cursed Rotted Fetid version of the Isz root dungeon? That'll cover my bases?
>>
>>128731015
Paarl is easy because you can stun him via limb damage. Limb damage occurs when you deal a certain % of a boss's health to its limbs. Loran Darkbeast has a lot more health, and consequently is much harder to control with limb damage.

Paarl's placement is interesting. He's at the bottom of Yahar'gul, but also at the door to old Yharnam. Perhaps the village was less unseen before old Yharnam was burnt to the ground.

But anyway, Paarl's in almost a playpen. There's one entrance that he can't fit through and another that's locked tight, so apparently he just sits there on that patch of mud just being a giant pile of bones all day. His lamp is even called "Graveyard of the Darkbeast."

My guess would be, given the interest in imitating darkbeasts suggested by the Tonitri and Beast Claws, is that Paarl wasn't a person turned darkbeast, but the darkbeast that inspired research. Given that darkbeasts are skeletal but the bones are still alive, and Abhorrent seems to have similar powers, my thought is that darkbeasts are very old beasts whose flesh has sloughed off just from sheer age, which is why it's content to just sit in a pile somewhere until bothered; there's life, but not much of it. And if it's content to sit somewhere, that theoretically means you can lock it up in a playpen and research further. Like maybe after a place burns to the ground and you can hide it there unnoticed.

Most of that's conjecture so you can have it on the house.

11's set their pvp meta higher than the rest of the world, on average and they don't recognize that there's a world outside their island, so when they invade a player on their bl100 'twink', they automatically assume it's a pve player and run to the mobs to 'become part of the level'

Church Pick for me

Transform mode then stay in front of it attacking it's head once then step back after it makes a move. Eventually it the head becomes wounded so that future attacks deals 3 times the damage until it recovers

For my experience, which was a couple of hours earlier, once the second phase starts:

He swipes his head thrice, with the safe one is when he swings his head up and down

But since I used a long weapon, the Pick, I was able to safely hit the head once each head swing.

Of course, my strategy was to only combo if it's staggered so it was tedious, but since I was always in front of him, he barely used his AOE attacks and it was really easy to read and dodge his instant kill charges.

Why do people always put the beast claw so low? It's fast as fuck and does good damage, and is really varied with luarence's rune. I'm going to make a build around it, prove all you fuckers wrong.

My strength build is at bl 98
1 more point in skl and I can use the cannon
2 more and I could use the church pick with a heavy abyssal
If I brought this build up to 110, I could actually be a 50/25 strength quality build and use a few more weapons.

Is that worthwhile? This was my first playthrough so I ended up wasting points into arc for those buff tools I never use, but the idea of having to deal with 150 and above is not appealing.
>>
>>128736268
Weapons like the beast claws or uncanny/lost variants for weapons, the trophy at the end of the story dungeons, a blood rock, chalice dungeon specific bosses.

But nothing mandatory, so if you're not having fun, don't do them.

You already have a Loran chalice? I think you can buy the materials after either going a certain distance in NG+ or by progressing through chalices. Pthumeru is fun, why don't you like the traps or pthumerian enemies? Also nobody will blame you if you look up where to find chalices and materials.

People always ask for summons for low level builds and i just dont understand why. Its easier with the two NPC summons
>>
>>128736540
Because the upwards limit for invading is 50% of your level, meaning a level 100 gets to compete with reddit's 150 meta full of 40end rakuyos, 50/50 qualitysaws, vitgauge wheels and the like.

THere's an extreme powercreep at the point where builds start falling apart and becoming homogenized stat balls. It's not fun to be a statball, and it's not fun to fight statballs, but if you're over 100 then all you'll see in any hotspot is statballs.
>>
>>128736540
Because fighting 150's becomes fustrating after a while

Also, with 98, you can level 50 at least Vit and the damage stat you want with some leftover points

>>128736429

Cannon's worthless for a build that's going to be two-handing often. If you're going to level anything for minimum reqs, level arc to 15 or 18 so you can use your bullets on tools; augur is particularly handy for parries while two-handing. If not, do just go for str/quality, it's good times.

>>128737120

Whirligig, Hunter Axe, LHB...all strength or str/quality weapons that will have you two-handing. And these are good weapons. If you wheel and deal with anything other than 1hand blunt you'll also be neglecting your gun.

Cannons are of questionable use anyway. You're blowing huge wads of bullets on a chunk of damage that probably won't kill and because of the recoil will be healed before you can do anything. Or if it's a duel it'll probably just miss. In any case, cannons lose any value when you need to untrick your weapon to use it, it has to be a surprise to work at all.

You can use it if you want, but a blunderbuss that you can use twenty times will always be more practical.

Depends on how strict the meta is. If everyone there is making sure to be exactly 150 or higher then it matters, and that's likely; PvP metas tend not have people underleveled, they'll have meta level and then messy builders/escalators slightly over.

>>128737191

I rate BB really high for transformation attacks, hyperarmor and a fantastic tricked charge attack. BoM and Chikage both feel too limited in comparison; I think BoM mainly for wanting to be 2handed, Chikage for being slow in use. I like both those weapons but what I feel in my heart is that they're not so great.

And it figures I'd forget something. Just as well, I haven't used or fought picks enough to really rank them.

Tricking is good for the uncharged R2, since it lengthens and widens the hitbox considerably.

Boom Hammer is a little more effective in PvP I think, if you're good at freeaiming. Your R1s are all big horizontal sweeps, rather than that just being your L2 and running R2, and they're faster with less stamina consumption. It's a little shorter of course but I think that's more practical rather than less.

Kirkhammer probably wins the spot for most underwhelming weapon. It seems fine, initially, with an alright moveset, but it's slow, and doesn't have enough damage to back up how slow it is. The only really worthwhile move on it is the charged R2

No. Shitters get wrecked by basic mobs when they try to use it and claim it's bad. Just the other day I saw some shitter in here suggest that the Kirk needed a buff in the form of

>Some hyper armor on its L2
>A backstep attack identical to its post-transform L1 thrust

Just goes to show the people in here who shittalk Kirk never actually use it or have any idea how it works.

I ended the game around level 70. Did the DLC right after Cainhurst at about level 50 with a +7 weapon. It was +8 by the time I fought Ludwig. I went and progressed the main game after Maria and came back after Micolash to finish the DLC.

I used the saw cleaver for cleric beast and gascoigne, and then the kirkhammer for the rest of the game. Wen through the chalice dungeons with kirk + beast cutter.

Some bosses were harder than others, but most of the difficult stuff was in the dlc or the earliest parts of the game.

Okay, so back to the questions. How is tricking unbeneficial? Does it switch the wep to pure fire/arc damage, and you lose all your str scaling or something?

>>128741153
It's not even extreme poise damage. It's about as much as an uncharged r2 from anything 2handed.

It'll stagger some things but most 'big' enemies won't be staggered by one hit of it. It has no effect on big bosses, can't backstab and can't parry.

It has strength scaling, but for no real reason because it does no damage, and has no gemslots so it can't even carry a pulsing.

It's literally useless.

>>
>>128741401
Tricking adds the listed fire AR to your next attack.
Unfortunately, the weapon's in-built modifiers are shit, so it ends up adding trivial damage in most cases.
Since it increases stamina cost by like 50% for the tricked attack and has no other benefit, it's usually not worthwhile.

The uncharged R2 os the only attack that actually has a hotbox change. For everything else, the explosion is purely visual.
>>
>>128741591
But It literally adds more boom to your attacks. A standard leap will stagger, a boom leap will knock back and onto their ass

and since I'm using beast cutter, how many abyssals do I want over adept?

I'm assuming 1 heavy 2 blunt?
>>
>>128747440
>make the mark look cooler
Every time someone tries to make a tattoo look 'cooler' it just ends up looking autistic. No videogame tattoo looks cool, but the hunters mark would probably be fine since it's so simple if and they did it really really small on your wrist or some shit.
>>
>>128747440

Just get the brand of sacrifice, it's the same thing and people won't laugh as hard when you tell them where it's from.
>>
>>128747504
If you have 50STR and your ungemmed weapon has (examples):
More scaling than base AR (150+180): no heavies
Less scaling than base AR(150+120): 1 heavy
More than 2:1 ratio on base/scaling (150+70): 2 heavies.

That's more or less the breakpoints, they're not exactly like that but it's a good guide.
>>
>>128747718
but isn't that different because you're not factoring in skl?

and that still applies when you're dealing with 32.6% adept gems?

SKL doesn't affect the worth of heavy abyssals, and I'm not factoring adepts, that was regarding 27.2%.
If you want to make the calculations yourself: abyssals apply before %up gems, and they multiply the base AR by their modifier and your STR level modifier. It looks like this with 50 STR

(Base AR)*0.85*0.65+Base AR+ original scaling= final AR.

I'm actually going to calculate myself with adepts, give me a minute

And I would really like to see Miyazaki taking inspiration from Medievil's Burton-like's world.

I wish we had a bunch of Bloodborne NPCs that represented a bunch of different philosophies.

>no hardcore Kantian deontologist NPC that believes all humans lose the right as a rational agent of free will once they become beasts (also never lies, NEVER)
>no immoral utilitarian that seeks out the greatest number of suffering to the greatest number of people (super edgy)
>no Daoist Eastern NPC coming from whatever made up kingdom/dynasty

I don't know. I just feel like it would fit the whole Victorian aesthetic.

What kind of NPCs do you want in Bloodborne, /bbg/?

If you actually look past "guiz he invaded me so i'm the victim trying to survive!!1!" mentality and in terms of actual fairness, do you think people that purposely don't progress or kill bell maidens and just wait to be invaded (so they don't get the hp penalty) is considered fair?

I'm talking about the ones that don't heal and do want an honorabru duel but still don't bother blood bulleting.

>>128750038
If you actually want a build to be good in pvp make a new character.
Is this your first souls game? Do you not know how NG+ works?

>Lovecraft-like philosophers

I'd say Old Yharnam was much like a small European city from the victorian period or whatever the clothes look like, so they probably had things like brothels, taverns and theaters. The Healing Church was the main religion, worshiping the Great Ones. But after the plague and the burning of Old Yharnam things got more taciturn. New Yharnam may have lived too afraid of the Hunt, so it's likely only brothels and praying to the church became their leisure activities.

>Do you think there's fairy tales about the Nightmare Frontier and all that alien shit that are passed onto kids?
Most likely tales from Byrgenwerth and the old labyrinths, like "don't wander in the forest least you find your way into Byrgenwerth" or "Dont go to the caves, you will lose yourself in the Pthumeru labyrinth".
>>
>>128749962
A philosopher is just a man who thinks about shit and will at times have an insight, i.e. Memecolash. Making a philosopher character for the sake of philosophizing does come across as trying to hard.

Oh, so you're just a shitter.
Shoulda expected so.

>>128750101
Regardless, you invaded. If you didn't want the penalty, you yourself would be a shitter just waiting for some one else to invade. The penalty doesn't need to go, what needs to be made is a sort of arena where you either both have a penalty, or neither do.
>>
>>128750247
Yeah, your level doesn't reset on ng+ so if you want to make a strength build create a new character with a max of, 13 skill? I think that's right, having that much will let you use all strength weapons I think.

>>128750329
You are taking a little fun too personally anon.

You need to farm for good gems in order to use the beast cutter properly.

No, it's there from the time he jumps until he drops, it tells you where he is overhead. Trust me, I was stuck on him for a while.

How the fuck do you kill defiled amy with a bowblade in co-op? It's easy for the first half but when she rips off her arms the range looks like it literally covers the whole room. And you can't really do the jump cheese because it's really weird and unpredictable with 2 or more people.


The boss is also tanky as fuck so you need to go through 15+ arrows and there's no guarantee you'll beat it so then you have to waste time restocking. So how the hell do you beat it? Especially the long swipes and slam attacks with mini AOEs?

All right guys going for pure arcane build I started as waste of skin just because of my autism and OCD I had to get skill and strength to 15 or I wouldn't feel right at 15 ski/15str/rest arcane what weapon should I use until I get the milkweed rune and Kos parasite.

Also looking for something similar, remember this one guy talking about someone that looked like the grim reaper, used a BB, somehow had no eyes and a skull-like head. Wondering if someone has sliders for something like that.

Saw Cleaver. Saw Spear. Church Pick. Beast Cutter. For your Fire Gems. All of these weapons have Serration.

Saif for Bolt Gems. Because Speed is best for Bolt. And saif is best of both worlds, plus great move set.

Threaded Cane for Arcane as a Temporary until you have Parasite. Because it doesn't matter. You're mostly only going to be using Fire and Bolt either way, until you get Parasite.

Rush Augur, Executioner Gloves and A Call Beyond. Everything doesn't matter.
