Turns out that transfusions of blood siphoned from the bodies

>>43822424
We knew that. Common sense really. Only problem is the side-effects.

>>43822433
Well every potent medicine has side effects. Could be worse however. At least excess body hair is manageable.

Could've been Anal seepage.

>>43822424
the next logical step is harnessing a series of these gods and siphoning as much blood out of them as we safely can, boxing them up by god and by proportional mixture for discerning clients and clergy.

was it me or was the fight against Logarious overly difficult for a 'Souls' game?

>>43822455
Shit, excess body hair? What does that mean? I am already pretty hairy.

>>43822455
Depending on why I needed the extreme healing properties, I might find anal seepage acceptable

>>43822455
I mean the delusions of grandeur, narcissism, y'know. The body hair and incontinence are just adding insult to injury.

Guys, my sister took this medicine and she's kind of a werewolf now.

Anyone else know anyone experiencing that kind of thing as a side effect?

>>43822522
probably just a rare allergy.

>>43822526
Or a pre-existing condition.

>>43822455

ah no!

Don't worry, it tends to look quite nice, smooth and flowing and all. Also helps if you worry becomming bald.

>>43822522
The werewolf thing was probably tumblr; not cosmic blood. Just turn off the router for a day or two; it'll cure her.

>>43822462
Nah, much as I'll admit my first encounter with the Martyr was hard as fuck (Took 30 tries) every other time I've fought him its been a 0 blood vial no death affair.

All you gotta do is learn his moveset he telegraphs everything.

Ebrietas is a different story

>>43822563
>>43822522
>>43822424

You must gain insight, or as they say "eyes on the inside", to know the truth.

>>43822639
yeah, but I'm a slow learner, and he may telegraph but I'm shitty at dodging...

I set the game down for a time because amygdala was giving me issues(yes I am that bad) nearly killed it a few times, still fucking things up though. I'll likely pick the game up in a week or two and curbstomp it accidentally and proceed a little farther to get stuck against yet another boss, put the game down for a while etc. etc. etc.

it's how I progress in souls games.

>>43822462
It was you, dodging through his big arc attack left room for a stun- visceral ( with a fast weapon)combo until you stamina ran out

>>43822671
Amygdala was Satan to me, at least 30+ tries and I killed ebrietas in one go, don't feel bad

That only works for normal werewolfs.

If that guy's sister also grows antlers, it's the blood. Like >>43822660 said, you need eyes in the brain or things get hairy. I advise asking the archeology department of your local university.

>>43822639
Ebrietas depends on the build. Holy Blade with stamina build stunlocks her, same with the cannon.

I mean fast as in a kirkhammer sword so you can put out the brute force on a dime if need be

My best protip is to learn to time your dodges for that invulnerability ( which IS a trial and error thing)and always dodge forward and to left hand side of an opponent, it tends to put you behind them

How do you pull of a grim, madness and blood centred adventure with hope being a glimmer at the end of the tunnel without complete edge ?

>>43823191
By not using the dark elements to look cool or mature. That's what edgy means and people who cry for it the moment something is out of their comfort zone are morons.

>>43823149
I'm unlikely to ever run it. I can GM well enough for my group but I'm mostly an improvist GM.

I can make shit up on the fly round a campfire and run it better than something I prepped in advance.

I always worry that I'm missing something and I have to go back through the source material over and over again.

AND that thing has a huge plot+setting hole.

if the wall of the cities were torn down allowing the monsters inside, what did the tearing? and where is it hiding now?

>>43823191
the best I have is >>43822726 and it's pretty edgy; body horror, eldritch abominations, heavy leather trench-coats, lots of fancy hats, occasional bouts of GODDAMNED POLITICS (but mostly just the trench warfare fucking with travel), so on and so on.

part of cutting out the edge is getting the right players..

Viewpoint of an newborn 3 months outward. You can't really feel anything, cramped space you can't escape and its slowly getting smaller, you can occasionally hear voices but can't see from where talking in an odd unknowable language, towards the end just before you think you'll go crazy the walls start closing in hard, hard enough to deform your head and body, just before you think you'll die you can see it, light. Its the first light you've ever seen so its blinding and it BURNS. Just as you make it to freedom somebody cuts the shit you were using to breathe and then slaps your ass. Its the first real sensation you've experienced so the pain is EXCRUCIATING. Its so painful you learn to breathe just so you can scream in pain. The whole ordeal is so traumatizing you get retroactive amnesia.

He gives ZERO fucks about breathing room, and every part of his body might as well be a fucking hit box. That wouldn't be a problem, if not for the fact that he is near-constantly attacking you with wide sweeping attacks that track.

>>43823868

Probably some deeper meaning, like Horse means endurance or something.

Hell, Ludwig when you meet him is still bearing some form of sanity.

>>43823868
different sources

the vilebloods got it from one dead outsider
the healing church got it from a different source and, as is natural with churches run by humans, branded other strains heretical
yosephka had it from a 3rd source.
ludwig probably got it from yet a 4th source in the chalice dungeons.

I wonder what the blood of the main character should you choose squid ending does to you...

>>43823868

Several theories, ranging from temperament, your individual insight into the truths of the world, blood source from a different Great One, and individual experimentation with blood.

Possibly a combination of all three

>>43823868
Sorta fitting, a Crusader on a Horse.

But for an in-universe explanation, apparently there are PARASITES in the Blood. The more you resist the urges, the more the parasites build up. The more they build up, the harder it is to resist, and the more mutated you become.

>>43823923
A squid/octopus obviously. Probably with fucked up shrimp features.

>>43823923
>>43823947

Well, you're a kid now, and a squid now.

>>43823923
The vilebloods had one source that lead to... well the vilebloods and their tick like beasts.

The church had the one that turns people into lycanthropes.

The Choir had the one that turned people into Celestials, where Impostor! Isoepha

The Mensis people had a different strain.

And so on and so forth.

The changes also seem tied with how "Insightful" you are. The more "in the know" you are the more severe and drastic the changes will be. Its the reason why there's a difference between Cleric Beasts, and the werewolves.

>>43823989

I thought the Mensis people had a bit of every strain, which is why their shit got so fucked even compared to everyone else?

>>43823989
>The changes also seem tied with how "Insightful" you are. The more "in the know" you are the more severe and drastic the changes will be.
that's part of what I wanted for the "insight" mechanic in>>43822726 but people tell me it's a bad idea and I shouldn't implement it on an individual player basis...also the corruption generators, but that hasn't been fully fleshed yet...

Someone forgot to tell anon that Bloodborne is the prequel to Splatoon.

>>43824012
Pretty sure they got theirs from Rom, hence bugheads.

>>43823985
I mean, I thought that implication is that you successfully became a Great One, not that you're a weird kind of beast.

>>43823989
>The changes also seem tied with how "Insightful" you are. The more "in the know" you are the more severe and drastic the changes will be. Its the reason why there's a difference between Cleric Beasts, and the werewolves.

I like to think of it more in terms of "Reforging your body to better able to cope with your level of Arcane Knowledge" it's just that the whole entire process completely shatters your psyche unless you got some serious endurance (Like Ludwig, or Amelia) get ALL OF THE KNOWLEDGE at once (Like the Player).

So you either succeed like The Player and the Vileblood Queen, endure but eventually go insane anyway like Ludwig or the Vicar, end up becoming braindead like Rom, or just turn into a beast.

>>43824033

Actually Rom was a human that got transformed into that "Thing", likely by Kos, (Or some say Kosm) to act as a sort of Dream catcher spider, to gird the sanity of the rest of humanity.

The Byrginworth folks likely drew from him.

>>43824033

That's Byrgenworth, the Mensis were the people with Murgo and trying for One Reborn.

>>43824066
I don't count getting imprisoned twice and then pasted as "succeeding"

>>43824072

Kos / Kosm was a scholar at Byrgenworth, one of Ludwig's generation I think.

Or I may be completely wrong.

>>43824099
Kos/kosm is a great one. She shows up in the DLC

>>43824085

>Was there at the start of all this shit
>Still around
>Didn't go insane, or even really mutate.
>Got turned into Paste but could have been resurrected from a lump of stray flesh.
>Didn't go insane even after that.

I would count that as succeeding.

>>43824072
I would never have thought Kos to be 1. A female and 2. A gigantic disgusting blob thingy that somehow gives birth despite the fact that Great Ones are not supposed to be able to do that.

>>43824133

Does she give birth to an actual Great One, or just some weird Half-spawn thing?

>>43824171
It's certainly tougher than the MP, although if it is a great one, it's the most humanoid we've seen.

so, because I can, I'll ask.

1.) what elements would be essential to running a tabletop RPG that FEELS like bloodborne both story, setting, location of play(players round a dining table with the lights on low, or round a campfire at night)

2.) what system would you use, and why?

3.) what mechanics would you try and port over?

4.) what characters would you port?

5.) high or low detail on the in game environment?

6.) what monsters would you throw in?

7.) magic how? (I'm thinking something like pic related)

8.) gimmicks? novelties? etc.

>>43824273
shit that is badly worded...

>>43824273
I almost ran a CoC game in the Bloodborne setting. Was gonna play it on Halloween but RL got in the way.
The idea was players would be normal folks, not hunters, and it wasn't a night of the hunt. Exploring Yharnam while it was still a bustling city and trying to discover the truth about the healing church is a perfect fit for the system.

>>43824273
>2.) what system would you use, and why?
I would use Pathfinder, if only because i know pathfinder. however, you could probably find something far more suited that that. Perhaps FantasyCraft.

>3.) what mechanics would you try and port over?
Trick weapons and The rally system (Draw blood and heal yourself)

>4.) what characters would you port?
The doll.

>7.) magic how? (I'm thinking something like pic related)

I would do magic like they do in bloodborne. You dont. You use shit that does. All the "spells" are you using, runes, items, or the remains of creatures to coax supernatural effects.

>>43824462
>The rally system
I have not encountered this, or I may know it by another name, explain?

>The doll.
yes. or bring in the Maiden in Black(same voice actress, same in game purpose. equally {or nearly so} sad+adorabe)

>pathfinder/fantasycraft
I've played neither why would FC be more suited?

>You dont. You use shit that does
yes, the runes of necromancers
I still want some magic but I want it rare enough that the players can't just roll up a wizzard and cheese the whole game

>>43824462
>CoC
never played that either GMs for any game around here are rare, finicky, and oddly enough gathered around the same local fetish club...

>>43824573
The rally system is the health regain thing from hurting enemies after you get hit.

>>43824573
FC and PF both use the same system, But FC actually makes an attempt to balance the Magic System.

You know when you get injured and you attack a creature, the more damage you do the more health you recover? Thats the Rally System in Bloodborne.

>>43824618
>>43824625
ah that...

okay...now how would you implement that in a low HP game(fewer max hitpoints and each one counts for a lot of damage)

I'm thinking "for every 2 points of wounding you cause an opponent you have a 50% chance to gain 1 hit-point back"

>>43824273
>1
I'd say the most important threat are a feeling of dread and mistery. You want high lethality and a mistery that slowly unravels and completely changes how the world looks. A bit of mythical flair is also important.

>3
I wouldn't directly copy mechanics, because those of Bloodborne are made with a computer in mind. But I would fill similiar nieches. You want to force the players to be agressive to put them under pressure to support the feeling of dread. There are several ways to achieve that, like the rally system. You could also build your encounters in a way that makes them become harder as they go on, or have groups of enemies that synergize with each other.
Maybe add some ressource management that forces players to go out into the world.

>6
I'd go for a range of human to beast transformations and an own set of Old Ones. You really want to draw the players in with the unknown, so they must not know what they will encounter.

>7
Don't make magic safe. Don't turn it into a tool to deal with enemies while they don't hurt you. I'd throw in some utility spells that help avoiding encounters rather than making them easier.
Give your players some decent healing, but have it come at a price. While you want fights to be tense, you don't want your players crippled and forced to take a huge break.
You could add a corruption/transformation element, exploring on the beast blood element. Would also add this nice theme of fighting for your humanity while you piece together the horrible truth.

You could have the players be members of some sort of organisation akin to the hunters, sent out to this weird place to solve a mistery. If they die/go insane, you can use them as enemies while the new PCs are another set of investigators.

>>43822424
Sounds legit. Let's bottle it up and market it as health drinks. I'm sure nothing bad will happen.

>>43825085
>dread and mistery
I'll expect cries of "quit the grimderp" but I'll try for that.

>Maybe add some ressource management that forces players to go out into the world.
food and encumbrance, I intend to lay this on them. they'll start with a cart of supplies, and they might(read; probably) lose it.

>I'd go for a range of human to beast transformations and an own set of Old Ones.
random pick on the monsters is what I was thinking, but now I'll have to mix-n-match them some more

>Don't make magic safe.
that was already in the document, I want them trying it only as a last resort or with the care of a man balancing bowls of nitroglycerin sort of thing

>You could add a corruption/transformation element, exploring on the beast blood element.
I have something other than blood in mind, (going for the feel more than an exact match) but how would you do it?

>You could have the players be members of some sort of organisation akin to the hunters, sent out to this weird place to solve a mistery. If they die/go insane, you can use them as enemies while the new PCs are another set of investigators.

it was the intent to have that sort of thing, but the hunters are mercs clean and simple under employment to explore [country]

Individuals that act and behave similarly to the PC should be the Hardest motherfuckers around. Them hulking out in beast form after a certain number of injuries should make them even more dangerous.

>>43825372
>Individuals that act and behave similarly to the PC should be the Hardest motherfuckers around.
yup. again in the homebrew I'm building (hold your vomit till the end please) monster hunters a relatively common occupation, high turnover rate so there are few widely known hunters. the party just happens to be hunters and(I'm requiring at least one) an academic sent into a monster hotzone so bad that centuries ago it's inhabitants built a 30 foot wall around the whole country to protect outsiders just to loot and look around.

naturally other entrepreneurs in countries adjacent to the [Country] have also sent in their own teams to look around or loot or both. so the occasional corruption-maddened hunter wouldn't be amiss at all.

That's hard to tell without knowing the rest of the system. If healing/magic is rare you could roll on a table of mutations whenever it's used. Have a good mix of positive and negative side effects with skill in that area shifting the balance.
You could also secretely keep track of what the players use and have that count as EXP towards certain archetypes a la vampire, werewolf, etc.
So ten points into squid god gives you face tentacles, 20 let you spit ink, and so on.
On the negative side you could force will saves against certain behavior typical for that archetype. You can start with easy things like being drawn to a certain place or substance and then things escalate out of the players control.
So by the time you make Mr. Squidhead an NPC he's a gurgling monstrosoty trying to infect his sister so that he can make baby squids with her.

And of course you can have this stuff have happened before and be side stories for the players to uncover.

>>43825904
>My players range from age 6 to 12,
I've heard better things than I'd expect about that, how is it?

>>43825944
The younger ones have a rather short attention span and don't care about roleplaying that much, but it's quite fun. Children that age are really interested in creating something themselves and obviously rather easy to impress. In a way they are "untainted" by shitty media you'd have a lot of teenagers copy because they think that's cool.

But of course that might be just my player base, which is my siblings and some of their friends.

Can someone explain what the Hunters were actually supposed to do and why the MC is supposed to kill the various Great Ones?

>>43824267

The MP was supposed to be easy though, it's fight was more for cinematic reasons than gameplay, Gehrman was for Gameplay.

>>43826422
hunters hunt beasts. there was a time when people in game didn't know what caused beasts. the hunters were the first knee-jerk reaction to that.

by the time people realized what caused beasts, everything was collapsing.

>>43826422
The Healing Church knew that the blood turned people into beasts. So they created The Hunters to clean up the mess.

As for killing great ones? That just kinda happens. Not exactly part of the job description. But like all good Campaigns its never JUST what you're initially fighting, or what you're hired to do.

>>43826422
The hunters kill all those beast roaming the city. You know, those things that go around attacking people. Though part of that is to make sure no one finds out that the blood aministration is to blame for the plague.

What the player does is mostly being a dick. You get into the Old One's personal space, so they try to defend themselve. You just beat them with all the skills you aquired in your exploration of Yahrnam.

>>43826542

To be fair, killing off Ebrietas and the Brain of Mensis is more the player just being a dick rather than actually killing them to prevent beasts.

Ebrietas just spends her eternity staring sadly at the (Generic Statue of Rom) that is actually one of her human hand-maidens that she favored, and then granted the understanding and ability to manipulate the entirety of time, but being that she was human she was unable to fathom it and was turned to stone.

and the Brain is just kinda hanging there, enjoying the view, it's not his fault his gaze will make your body explode.

>>43826550
>>43826584
If something is going to kill me for getting "in their personal space" then I'm going to fucking kill it back.

>>43826584
Yeah, if you just take the time to talk to it The brain will give you stuff! Useful stuff. It just takes a while to perform their version of Sign Language.

>>43826613
Except Ebrietas is just there being sad over a statue. It takes the player smacking her to start the fight.

>>43826613

You can literally touch Ebrietas and she won't do fuck-all until you make her bleed.

The Brain? The Brain just hangs out in a tower all day, watching shit, it's not his fault that the things he watches are incapable of handling his gaze and explode just from the shear weight and knowledge him glimpsing at you provides.

Hell, you can talk to that motherfucker after you knock him down into the Void, he gives you a pretty awesome rune by carving it into your thought meat.

Hell, even the Moon Presence isn't really attacking you, it's trying to hug your ass and replace Gehrman with you as it's Child-stand in / Adopted Babby, until it feels the umbilical cords you ate / coiled inside you and Rightfully assumes you are becoming a Great One, and that you just killed it's pseudo-adopted child.

>>43826584
>the Brain is just kinda hanging there, enjoying the view

Except that it was trapped there and tortured by Micolash, and that it probably wanted you to end its suffering.

alright in the picture you see how I've tried to implement these. how do they look?

>FYI
in nWoD (they system I'm building in for now) a character typically has 7 hitpoints maxing out at around 10 for humans.

>>43826838
Seems fine to me. Actually gives all-rounder builds a nieche because their point gain should be spread and thus take much longer to hit a threshold.
You can also adjust the the point requirements to change difficulty, maybe there are some items or locations that change the threshold or grant a chance not to gain a point, etc.

Obviously you need to write up the different categories and keep them balanced. The usual stuff.

>>43823868

>>43822462
Logarius you just need to stop from powering up. After he powers up its some bullshit bullets curve around him.

Otherwise he's so easy to visceral.

But yes it was a long slew of deaths before I beat him.

>>43827056
>different categories and keep them balanced.
see, thats the problem I'm having.

what categories should i have?

Berserker/Beast
Caster
Vampire

but what else? and what bonuses for those things?

>>43827374
You could probably get some mileage out of some of the Changeling: the lost rules.

>>43827374
That's really up to you. You can go for classical monsters, the seven sins, or make the players more alike the great beings of the setting. Sea life has always been popular for Old Ones, but you can use anything and make it strange. Seriously, I once made an old one based on 4chan.

Stuff out of my ass:

>The Spore
A healer based on corruption, maybe based on fungi. Gives access to easy healing, but pumps the other player's corruption stat. In the end they just become a stationary fountain of corruption.
You can gain this corruption via the spores of those creatures that are maybe around as an item.

>The Slime
An absorption based tank. One that sticks to the attacker and fuses with them. Players get a tentacle made of slime that clings to attackers, devours them and grows.
The characters become hungry for exotic things and try to fuse with bigger things. In the end they are just a blob.

Cont.

>>43828153

>The Hive
A minion-master that actually births his minions. Like, through actual copulation. Or creating parasites that nest into someone's brain to make them a slave. Once they go NPC they'll do nothing more than create new spawn.

>The Worker
An insectile creature that's very skilled with using various artifacts. Grows extra arms/mandibles to work with all kinds of stuff and in the end becomes obsessed with constructing weird machines and altars for their god
I'd say this type is mostly gained by items, maybe uncovering the secrets of an old civilization.

>The Junkie
A slaneesh-like demon of hedonism. Gets extra social skills and light illusion, but becomes addicted to all kinds of pleasure and intoxicating substances. This one could be a mixed category for players who down all kinds of items.
Maybe they actually try to corrupt others to have more fun.

>That asshole who ruined my carpet.
A vampire based on gluttony. Think the tick guys from Bloodborne. Gets bloated with all the blood taken in, can spit out one poisoned blood. In the end bursts into some other weird creature or whatever.
Get extra corruption via tainted blood.

>The Broccoli
A "watcher" obsessed with observing the great beyond, with a bounch of extra eyes or antennae. Improves senses/magic, but makes the character apathetic to mundane matters. Might work for casters

I'd use a bunch of enviromental factors for some of these corruptions, like wandering in the open during the purple rain or getting hit by certain attacks. Maybe there are some tainted Items that belong to a certain god, though that only works if magic items are really rare/powerful.

>>43823515
bludwig's crazy sword

>>43823191
By giving respites. Too many GMs and storytellers in general have this problem. A character crying means nothing if we've never seen them smile. Before long the upset just becomes routine. Give them something to smile about and don't rip it out from under them or make it something to be upset about. Just something that their characters can genuinely feel happy about. Rollercoasters are always more fun that sheer drops.

>>43823496
It's a little unnerving that "Do Not Follow the Little Girl" needs its own symbol.

I think the brain wants you to kill it. When you try to make contact it gives you a rune that gives you more blood echos for killing things, and runes are the words of great ones. Seems pretty clear what it wants.

The Healing Church didn't create so much as co-opt the hunters. Gherman was the first of the hunters, while Ludwig was the first of the Healing Church hunters. They did know, however, that there would eventually be more powerful beasts.

Not sure if you're still following the thread but last anon you replied to.

When I said Ebrietas is a different story its kind of a weird one, for some reason or other I must've had a poorly constructed Ludwig build because it was near impossible.

When I tried fighting her with my threaded cane it was surprisingly easy. Can't say why but I imagine the range and the weapon speed (often got caught trying an extra Ludwig swing) helped.

Yes, in her outfit it talks about how she loved Gehrman.

Late advice, but don't focus on the edge. Give all actions a reason; it doesn't have to be sane, or kind, or but at least try to write out a skeleton model of ideas for every action and event. Why is that woman screaming batshit mad while swinging around a cannon twice her size effortlessly? Why are all those dudes huddled by a fire and looking like they're ready to eat the eyes of the first thing that gets too close? If YOU have reference, you can make even the illogical seem believable, even if it's never explained to the players.

Second, tone down the fucking ultraviolence already. Of course there will be and should be violence, but REAL tension and ugly stuff comes from the FEAR of violence and torment. Have people be paranoid, busy, exhausted, verbally hostile and using defensive body language, and reluctant to explain anything for fear of what's going to happen to them. If the players need info and are getting frustrated, make sure they have some costly contact to fall back on. Or just make it clear that if the players choose to be violent and cruel instead, they can get what they want.

What's going to do the job, to put it most plainly, is actually investing time and thought into your work, and using restraint when it comes to the murder and madness. You have to have it be a constant *threat*, but not a constant occurrence.

its real
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olestra
>Olestra (also known by its brand name Olean) is a fat substitute that adds no fat, calories, or cholesterol to products. It has been used in the preparation of otherwise high-fat foods such as potato crisps, thereby lowering or eliminating their fat content. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) originally approved olestra for use as a replacement for fats and oils in prepackaged ready-to-eat snacks in 1996
>Starting in 1996, an FDA-mandated health warning label read "This Product Contains Olestra. Olestra may cause abdominal cramping and loose stools (anal leakage). Olestra inhibits the absorption of some vitamins and other nutrients. Vitamins A, D, E, and K have been added".

>>43837025
So it's even worse than actual fat. It actively PREVENTS nutrition absorption and destroys your bowels. Nice.

Haha! Proper Translations!

Just wanted to say that Strike! has pretty good rules for the "scavange/route/sneak" phase of a bloodborne/souls game in the form of team challenges, even if you discard the rest of the rules.

Basically, each "challenge" has an advance and a defense value. Challenges can be stuff like getting from point A to point B, but finding X item could be also a challenge (or part of going from A to B). Advance shows how perilous doing that stuff is, defense shows how much time/how many attempts it takes.

It comes down to the team making an advance and a defense roll themselves, and comparing it to the challenge. But before doing that, each member of the team can choose what they do in order to overcome the challenge.

I am an avid Strike! GM and I very much like team conflicts, although the rules for such have been virtually impossible to teach to players.

This is perhaps due to the fact that while the rules for team conflicts make for a very entertaining and surprisingly well-balanced and mathematically sound minigame, the mechanics are so disconnected from in-game actions and consequences that players cannot grasp them very easily.

Yeah, I couldn't actually bring myself to fight Ebrietas because she didn't do anything wrong.

Well, it's been a while since I did that fight, but if I remember right, catching just the right spot on the hips would deal full damage since the arc of the weapon swing goes high enough. Aside from that, I think I wailed on the legs too, you can make them bleed in a similar manner as her arms and then really lay into her with the axe's charged heavy attack.

Really though, it's mostly a matter of patience. You usually won't get full damage with your attacks, but Amygdala's health is low enough that you'll eventually down her despite that. It's pretty easy to stay safe if you remain there, so it only took me a few tries.

I thought the fight with her was way easier than actually fighting my way through the Nightmare Frontier itself.

Amygdala was so easy for me. You just stay under him and hit his legs with fire paper OR I also beat him just by shooting him in his head over and over on my bloodtinge char with Evelyn

She looks fine, just tell her to use dog shampoo from now on and don't give her any chocolate.

so in the Bloodborne inspired setting I'm building I gave the world 5 archetypal gods; Hunter, Warrior, Smith, Farmer, Order; they're actually old ones that decided not to hibernate and took up being living gods as a hobby

I have ideas for NPC granted blessings for 3 of them(warrior(combat bonus to-hit and to-wound), hunter(accuracy bonus to ranged combat of any type), and order(boost any stat by 1 point free))

what blessings or small boons could I give for the farmer or the smith?

I've got "magic" ironed out for the setting with abstract conceptual elements stolen from the AdMech(40k) and from my understanding of how tech works in the Marvel universe for asguardians.

Farmer bonus to rally coz they reap uh blood

115KB, 438x624px

Maybe to represent the rally mechanic, in 5e you get an action, bonus action, and reaction every round, howbout when you hit someone who hit you last turn, you can use your reaction to regain some number of hit points? It could be worked into a different system but 5e is what I'm playing currently so that's what I have on the mind. Like any other action resource could be worked in.

Also I just got the DLC today so far it's really good x_x I was so sad bloodborne ended so I'm really glad there's some more bosses and hunters to fight.

But the current character I'm playing is skill/bloodtinge so there's not very many new weapons for me. Time to make a strength toon I guess.

Also bummer that I'll probably never get to play a bloodborne style campaign. My DM currently is thus far pretty vanilla, which is cool coz it's everyone's first time in 5e. But I'm definitely super hyped currently on bloodborne.
