I like the axe and kirkhammer, and I have maybe three hours in the game.

Will these carry me through or should I find something else on a str build?

Also, someone told me farming blood vials off enemies is limited, is that true?

>>385677887

every weapon is good in this game.

blood vials are unlimited

Pizza cutter is the only true answer

>>385677887
I used my axe until ng+4. Then I rerolled for a skill build and got the cane. I still have to beat moon presence, orphan, lawrence, and gehrman, but I am having a hard time finding the inspiration to pick it up again

>>385677887
>Also, someone told me farming blood vials off enemies is limited, is that true?
No it's not.

Also the Kirkhammer isn't amazing but any weapon in Bloodborne can be used from when you get it till the end of the game.

>>385677948
I just started playing, and the fucking atmosphere is incredible.

Shame I don't have online because I'd love some jolly co-operation (or whatever the equivalent of jolly is in this game.

I've tried like 6 times now to run the game with the stake driver but it seems like any other weapon is better, no matter what my build is. It's awesome as fuck, too bad it's the one bad weapon in the entire game.

>>385678473
I fucking love that weapon. And the Rakuyo. And the Saif. Skill is so nice. I think I still prefer strength slightly more, but the DLC made skill so fucking fun.

>>385678980

During my first playthrough 20000 blood echoes were too much to spend so I never bought that weapon.
I'm too lazy for NG+ also BB is an old game and I have other things to play.

>>385678307
desu i didnt like it because it was a pretty generic weapon, its a greatsword/straight sword which i can use in any other souls game

>>385680032
That's a fair critique

Coming from someone who's only ever played souls games before, I kinda like the looks of it for that exact reason actually. Some feeling of familiarity.

>>385679950
I still have a few month or weeks. Destiny 2 is around the corner same as Battlefront II
Also I need to finish Crash.
I like to play games that are new in the market anf finish them, then never touch those games again.

>>385674718
People shit on the Ludwig's because they are contrarian faggots.

The real noob weapon is the starter axe.

Best weapon in the game (for PvE, at least) is the Saw Cleaver.

Fight me.

>>385678048
>Who needs damage
>implying the cane has a low damage output

It counts as serrated in its trick mode and has better range (with less windup) than many of the other weapons, making dispatching groups of enemies much easier.

People who think cane is garbage are just shit players, I suppose.

>>385680143
honestly i really like bloodborne for the unique weapons it has, shit like amygdalan arm, wheel, kos parasite, blades of mercy are all really interesting and unique weapons, and i feel they make bloodborne more fun weapons wise than the souls games

>>385678307
Contrarians see a lot of people using the sword because:
1. It's got a really fucking versatile and great moveset
2. Its moveset is similar to what people are familiar with from Dark Souls and lets them play the game a little more like Dark Souls, which they are familiar with.

So the natural reaction for these contrarians is to call it a 'memesword' and act like only scrubs and noobs use it.

It's also one of the best weapons for a STR/ARC build and that's probably one of the best builds in the game, imo.

>nobody else uses the daggers
Fine. They're not that good anyways, but I have fun with them.

>>385679102
Hell yeah nigga, I rotated through CP+Rakuyo+LHB+Pizza Cutter the whole time. So many choices, it was fun.

>>385680598
>They're not good

Eileen called, she wants you to press L1 more often during your combos.

How many payers are still active in the earlier areas in the game? I love cooperation but don't wanna buy a month of PS+ to realize I'm the only one playing this.

>>385680337
Just use the Beastcutter lmao

>>385680779
Plenty of people still play.
Can't you do a 1 month trial of PS+ anyway?

B-sides, if your budget is so shit you can't afford PS+, then you probably need to be doing something other than co-op'ing video games in your free time.

Nah, I've had this thing for years, used that trial ages ago.

>B-sides, if your budget is so shit you can't afford PS+, then you probably need to be doing something other than co-op'ing video games in your free time.

I can afford it no problem, but this is the only game I really want to play online on my PS4, and if I wanted to pay a sub to play a game I'd sub FFXIV or something, know what I mean?

>>385675812

>Beast Cutter
>Counts as Blunt in both modes
>Garbage for Rallying, which is the most useful mechanic in the game
>STR Build weapon

Maybe I'd use Beast Cutter if I was building STR and my secondary weapon was more of a single-target thing.

Cane has its place as a wide-range, versatile SKL weapon.

>>385681037
I get what you mean, but a PS+ sub also nets you discounts, a few free games, etc.

I avoided a sub for the longest time, but found that it pretty much paid for itself given how many games I bought through PSN on the regular, anyway.

Well, I think Beast Cutter is great!

>>385680002
I started to use the wheel for the simple fact that I loved the idea of bludgeoning shit to death with a fucking wheel.

>>385681191
I mean, I've had a sub before, and it was pretty neato, but since I beat everything I owned, and destiny got stale, I didn't see the point.

Understand that this is the first time I've touched my PS4 in like 6 months, I play mostly on my PC and switch. Still, I guess with freebee games, I'd be more inclined to play this more.

>>385681420
I could never get into it. It's rad as fuck, but the moveset never 'clicked' with me and I loved revving it up too much for my own good.

>>385680513
It's a bit of a noob trap though. While the numbers in the character menu are BIG the sword itself got mostly shitty damage modifiers (blunt-church weapon+shitty combo modifiers) that reduce the DPS by a lot. IIRC a cleaver will always out-dps it.

>>385674718
well I guess you aren't entirely wrong since it was my main weapon throughout my first playthrough

I've used a longsword with no shield in every souls game and that was as close as I could get in bb. Even tried to switch but every weapon in the game other than the hunter axe looks gay as fuck or has a goofy moveset
besides the real nooby shit is the fact my health bar stretches across almost 50% of my screen

>>385682368
most souls games need at least 2-3 playthroughs to get everything due to needing to kill npcs for certain items or spend boss souls on different things
bbs probably the same so I'd do the first playthrough on memory and check a guide to see what you missed on the second

I did use the Scythe for M+ including the stupid hard superbosses, and beat NG+ with it though.

>>385674718

>how to stop mental illness and depression

I just started playing Bloodborne and the game was fun until the Unseen village shit. Now the game is tedious with bell ringing women and enemies that you can't even hit but they can hit you. I started doing chalice shit after dying to this three man squad in that old church and running down to through the doors and seeing the massive enemies spitting acid at you.

I want to die because the enemy was better than me or I made a mistake, not to gay ass sniping or indestructable stage hazards.

>>385686481
Tonitrus is hardly top 5 weapons but is fucking amazing if you've got a STR/ARC build.

Literally was the best weapon for me to use against Ludwig.

The 'gimmick' is that you always have it sparked, my man.

>>385686623
>Put a bunch of fire gems on it, used it as a fire weapon.

I hope you were an Arcane build, otherwise you played yourself.

The real trick is to slot in one gem that swaps its damage to scale wholly from Arcane, then go with scaling boosting gems.

It's easily main weapon material, but requires you to actually do a bulk of the main-game chalice dungeon content for it to really shine.

Without that, it's got good tricked R2 pokes for ayys and the untricked moveset is fantastic for everything else, but there are more interesting/better weapons out there.
