>>124463531

>>124463447
Kick her ass, stupid. She just stands still and lets you do it.

Since when did I not need PS+ to be summoned?
Have I really played for half a god damn year without knowing this?

Sorry Artemisa I think we'll just head in and fight Descendant. Fuck connectivity

>>124463593

Yeah, I just checked fextra.

I got video proof though? It still says unconfirmed on there.

it was pointless

>>124463663
it's ok
fuck chalices always given me this problem once in a while

tips for maria?

i get get her to half hp easy enough, but then her attack hitboxes start taking up the entire screen and they track me whenever i try get behind her.

and i can never get enough distance to heal because her sword is like 5 washing poles strapped together.

Help at kos? Just died to a huge bullshit explosion when he had one swing of HP left. Ringing near mouth of cave. Uh, let's make the password oldboy.

>>124463764
Stay close, dodge into her to her right (your left). If you need to heal, back dash twice and keep walking back when appropriate to establish distance.

>>124463906
I died anyway, sometimes he just does NOT want to get parried regardless of the timing of the shots. Reringing

They're available at any messenger bath found in Chalice dungeons.

Saif or church pick for my Joker Cosplay skill build? Burial Blade is gonna be a must.

>>124463947
How did that happen?

>>124463954

>>124463954

Buy them from bath messengers in chalices.

What's the best STR weapon? Holy blade?

>>124464058
got hit twice, panicked and tried to heal too close to the boss

he didn't get one shot, even though the hp bar makes it look like he did.

>>124464058
If I had to guess, I'd say the leap attack Ludwig always does at the start of every fight caught the host, whose vit was so low it 1-shotted him.

>>124464053
>Joker Cosplay

Please don't.

>>124463808
i'm ringing at fog door and nothing happens

>>124463994
By the way I AM trying to hit him with this fucking bow of mine. Unless I'm standing directly behind him the steps of his swing carry him past the bows shitty tracking

>>124464207
yeah, I saw that.

>>124463993
Thanks oodles. Sorry if I seemed to let you do the work, I was trying to get arrow staggers.

>>124464053
>Joker Cosplay
Nigga, there's like 200 Jokers running around in the game right now

>Gatling Gun and Galasha are GOAT side arms

I mean seriously, why aren't more people using this? Especially the Fist. I've had tons of fun using it earlier in the FC.

>>124464167
The best would be the whirligig saw, but most of them are good. Kirkhammer is still an excellent choice and fairly easy to use.

Ludwig's is a str/skl quality weapon and doesn't really work as well for pure str.

>>124464167
Personal preference, but I recommend the Whirligig Saw, Hunter's Axe, and Kirkhammer

>>124464334
nigga i wasnt voted most creative in high school. give a man a break I always do themes for builds and i wanted to do a skill build cus i aint ever done it

>>124464167
Although the Whirlgig Saw gives an S scaling for strength, a +10 Kirkhammer with 27.2% gems will still have a higher damage output compared to a +10 Whirlgig with max gems.

>>124464350
Where do I find whirligig saw? I just got past the witches.

someone want to help me with the shadow of yharnams fight?

>>124464484
Dlc

>>124464484
the DLC. If you're around that point in the game, the kirk is your best bet for strength. You can access the dlc after vicar amelia but you'll probably want to put it off until later since it's endgame content, difficulty-wise.

i'm not sure if it's the most updated one but shoudl be a decent base all the same

>>124464470
Do you mean damage output in terms of straight R1-mashing DPS or damage per hit? Because the gigsaw seems a lot faster than the kirks hammer form for similar damage.

200 FUCKING TIMES

I THOUGHT HE WAS A MANNEQUIN EVERY SINGLE TIME

THIS IS THE SINGLE MOST RETARDED THING THAT'S EVER HAPPENED TO ME (EXCEPT THE TIME I STUCK DICK IN CRAZY)

>>124465106
Okay.

PSNID: Nyarlko- Character: Apple

Nightmare fog or lamp?

anyone know if you can only get one +15% health rune from chalices per playthrough?

>>124465098
Naw I've got all the footage, just gotta cobble it together. If you know any CRF Isz or regular Loran (Depth 4) with lots of ritual blood (5) on the first layer that'd be good, otherwise I'm going to put in the run of 3nawt3ys, a CRF Isz which has 4 Blood (5) in the first bonus room as well as a blood rock. More than twice as fast as having to recreate Loran

The part 2 won't capitalise at all on the NG+ buying because I fucking hate going there. It'll go Lower Loran(to get red jelly for ihyll + bastards for Defiled), defiled, then Ihyll. It'll just be the lever runs obviously for defiled and Ihyll

>>124465106
is it "Guppy" or "guppy"

>>124465261
Fog

>>124465263
per character, actually
>tfw no +45% health

>>124464824
You can't parry, but the animation is actually pretty fast, and tracking is good as well. Really good for adding pressure when the enemy is low on health. Not to mention in PvE it staggers most enemies.

>>124465310
aww, well thanks annon

>>124465295
Guppy
I only use correct capitalization here.

fuck i one shotted ludwig on my 75 chikage hunter but on my quality build at 60 hes kickin my ass and i'm using his fucking sword

he must be pissed or something

>>124465423
Are you using 31% BLT on every gem slot on your Chikage build?

alright Bayonetta anon from not long ago, BB as main, saif or church pick as backup? Repeater pistol is obvious but does she use anything like the piercing rifle? Its been so long I dont remember

>>124465509
you know what i mean anon :^)

and i was using mensis winter lantern gems

my bloodtinge was 50 though i dunno whats goin on

i seem to do good with just one hand mode and fire paper

>>124465423
the difference I found between doing him at bl 55 and now at 67 is pretty big. the extra defence you get from levelling helps immensely and stop him from one shotting, two shotting, or putting you in serious peril with just a regular hit. at 75-80+ he'd be somehwat easy I'd say, at least on NG.

Then again I know his moveset now which is the most important thing.

>>124465283
I'll see if I can save-scum some roots for that, then.

Standard Ihyll has some blood 5s, btw. Layer 1 only has three of them between its pre-boss and pre-lantern areas so I don't think it'd be more efficient than just running through and remaking ailing loran a few times later. Layer 2, though, has 2 in the main dungeon and 5 in the pre-boss area, so it might be worth including on your way to HBLB to save a few remake runs.

>>124464734
>>124465106
Coming.

>>124465248
He was added in the dlc patch, you probably haven't seen him before.

my BLT character has 40 BLT 10 STR and 14 SKL. I use a +10 chikage which does very nicely. However since I only use the blood mode for bosses and some mobs I want a different physical weapon. the chikage actually hits decently with regular attacks, the blood scaling has nothing to do with its damage in untricked mode corect? does it really matter what weapon I use as long as it's well upgraded and I can wield it, since no other melee weapon bar the club actually scales off BLT?

What about those gems that add BLT damage to regular weapons? Worth it? It's a fun build but it just feels rather limited with weapons. the pistols are samey and the evelyn is the only one worth using.

Jesus, NG+++ Amelia is kinda tough.

>>124465916

Basically, yeah, you ain't getting shit out of anything other than blood mode blood weapons.

>>124466070

THIS IS MY FIRST RESORT

>>124465676
Yeah Ihyll is good for the blood (5), the issue is that it's the very last chalice I run. Usually because descendant is such an ass but also because I like doing CRF Isz first and after you use the red jelly for CRF Isz you can't get enough for Ihyll without farming or running Lower Loran. So usually Isz -> Lower Loran -> Defiled -> Ihyll. By that point I don't really need the blood (5)

You're the one who can't fucking kill the bosses. What sort of benefit or enjoyment do you get from repeating NG+ cycles when you could be spelunking or playing new builds or co-oping/invading? Why did you choose the autismfest that you're not even proficient enough at the game to keep up with?

Being summoned is incredibly common at any of the levels I mentioned because jackloads of people are summoning for all the DLC bosses.

If you go to level 80, you're still going to get summoned in seconds for Ludwig. It's just the higher you go, the higher a chance you end up helping for NG+ bosses.

Sword mode is actually pretty cool and fun, has nice quick swipes and an AOE charged attack in a small circle.

I just don't use it because if I need melee I use my Chikage.

DLC NG+ can eat my boogers. No way am I pushing through that. Do you even get anything for it?

>>124468457
You do two quick circular AOE slashes and then nock and fire an arrow, then for transforming back it's a heavy arrow followed by a swipe iirc.

I rarely use the transform attacks, I try to plan out my encounters with the bowblade and if I need melee I switch to Chikage.

unless you know what you are doing you as the host shouldn't be the most aggressive player though. If you know what you are doing you shouldn't need summons anyway.

I'd rather a host lives and hangs back more rather than die. But yes, a host that literally hides in a corner of a boss room while you and another fight it is annoying.

So my secondary character is being built for particularly high bloodtinge, and while I am more likely to be using guns like Evelyn and the Piercing Rifle, I'm curious to know if I should bother using shotguns. I love my ludwigs rifle on my main and hsave been thinking if they are worth using for more than just parrying.

Should I bother upgrading say, a Blunderbuss for the sake of damage?

If you're good at dodging and particularly nice, you can probably have people help you through at about any level with co-op bells. If you want to do it alone, the DLC is tuned for ~65 to start with Mensis-level gems.

Yes, what i meant was you dont get it immediately after beating her. Should have been more clear.

>>124469646
sounds like you're autistic

Is it worth investing the BLT for Evelyn and nothing else

I'm hoping the gun damage will be good ranged harassment, but I dont intend on using bowblade, chikage, bloodletter etc

>>124469706
I didn't feel like making a whole new character just to play with the Bowblade and the Saif, anon. It's not like NG+ is particularly difficult.

>>124469737
That's the impression I'm getting. It feels like he has less health than most NPC hunters, and once you figure out you can parry his weapon in bow form he's pretty much toast.

It helps that I started off with a Bone Ash'd Evelyn to his face at point blank. By the time I'd actually damaged him enough to aggro, I'd cut down a third of his health bar.

>>124469874
If you're not going to use a BLT weapon, don't bother.

>>124468779
Really all you need to do is deal some damage and pull the boss away every now and then to give the cooperator space. The only time it's annoying is if you're doing all the work against a boss scaled for two players or more.

At that point I feel like I'm just doing a job for someone else and it's not fun and I get more satisfaction from watching them die instead.

>>124469874
No.
Just use fist of gratia and surprise people.

>>124469786
Sorry about that. I did beat her but it was with my level 100 character. And right now I made a new level 50 character and boy the enemies are damage sponges even with visceral attacks

>>124469387
>lvl 3 dungeon
Ruseman pls

>>124469874
If you're gonna go BLT for the Evelyn, then go full BLT weapons since it's a wasted stat for any other build

Is it worth upgrading blunderbuss to +10? Currently on 9+

>>124469935
I was trying to get Orphan to come to the ocean to give the cooperator and I room to dodge lightning but he was like 'haha nah I like to eat confederates' so I put on Chikage and started slashing.

>>124469927
He wasn't implying that you should make a new character. He as implying what I actually said, that Simon is tough on brand new characters that are rushing for the Bow.

On NG+ you already have a +9/10 weapon and a full load out of gems and complete build.

I attain a near orgasm status of elation everytime I fight Ludwig's second form and the choir really kicks in.

Even on my fourth time through the DLC its good stuff. Don't know they did it but it's still hype.

So have people tried interacting with Yamamura while wearing Constable Gear and the Kelly Helmet? His armor makes it sound like Vermin/Impurity Caryll Rune drove him mad. Would impersonating Valtr help? what about crushing Vermin nearby him?

>>124463654

I was expecting the difficulty to come from Simon's behavior, like the Yahar'gul riflespear fucker to the right of the Cathedral, or Yurie. I wasn't expecting his reputation for being tough to be based on the people fighting him being plebs. Oh well, Bowblade's up to +7 (time for chunk farming, hooray). Let's go play with it a bit.

So I've been looking for the Oedon Writhe gem that gives 3 bullets per visceral. I've tried three different dungeons and followed the instructions (when there were any) exactly and all of the chests I've opened have ONLY given me more chalice dungeon materials, never the runes people claim are there.

Is it just chance or are people just straight up lying? This is beginning to get on my nerves.

I've even started clearing out entire floors looting absolutely everything but I never find what I'm looking for.
I don't know where I'm mistaken. The codes are input exactly.

So apparently, there was a path I'd missed in the Forbidden Forest that ended up leading to another part of Iosefka's Clinic, where I found another Communion Rune and some bizarre blue creatures. Both of them were passive and when killed dropped items I can only assume were from NPCs I'd found previously. I knew I should've sent them all to the church instead.
Also found this Cainhurt Summons item, then went back to go clean up Hemwick of some items I'd missed, only for a carriage to appear. I also found a portable fucking cannon.

This game, I swear.

>>124470321
Pretty sure.

>>124470515
the old guy across the whore goes to the opposite of the choice you send him.

only him and the beggar guy in the woods windmill are the right choices to send to clinic

Chikage is kinda worthless one handed huh.

How do you people do PVE with the chikage anyways.

>>124470659
By tricking it and pressing r1 a lot

>>124470659

>>124470610
Guess I'll have to keep that in mind for next time.
Also, is there a reason my cannon chews 12 QSB instead of say, 10? I can only get off one shot with it before I have to either pray for more QSB drops or create some blood bullets.

>>124470659
rapid poison gems so you can stack rapid poison in either form!!!!

I really want to do this but it's not viable.

Why does burial blade have arcane attack?

>>124470802
Use bloodbullets before every shot for maximum efficiency

>>124470802
used to cost 10 but nerfed it to 12. could get 3 shots total with blood bullets before now i dont think so

also the old guy and beggar dont drop anything worthwhile anyway

>>124470774
How are you having trouble? Just stay right up against him and dodge to the side to avoid augur of Ebrietas. He won't use Call Beyond unless you're far away, and that should be the only reason you die to him whether NG or NG+.

>>124470802
It's so you can't get 4 shots off without runes.

>>124470857
Probably so people can't convert it to pure arcane damage or whatever.

>>124470973
So if i dont use arcane gems does that damage factor in at all?

>>124470857
>>124471127

It works like the BoM.

Attacks immediately following a dash or backstep, as well as transform attacks and charge attacks, all do arcane damage as well as physical.

Listen for that "SCHWING" noise, similar to BoM.

>>124470884
Cheers for the tip.

>>124470887
>>124470898

>>124471187
Skeletons, meaning first phase? Kill them first, he doesn't bother you.

If you're getting skeletons in phase two where you drop into the locked room, you're just running it in a wrong way to get them there. You can kill the skeletons before that room to ensure that they don't get accidentally trapped in there when you drop.

>>124470368
What did you think people were talking about when they said that they were rushing him?

>>124470659
the the L1 trick both ways is designed to flow smoothly into an attack, you slash from the sheathe when tricking and do a slash to flick off the blood and untrick it. So you are supposed to be constantly doing it even in the middle of a fight sometimes.

>>124471325

If you're using STR right now, Pizza Cutter.

>>124472837
Don't you have flamesprayer by now? Use that. Or if you're like me, hunter's axe is enough to carry you throughout the entire game.

>>124472708
STR weapons in the expansion are nice have you tried any of those?

Nah I think that's next weekends goal. I'm deciding whether or not I want to remake the character with 17 vit and 50 arc rather than 27 vit and 40 before I go diving deep into the chalices. Then after I've done THAT I'll try my luck at the DLC.

And try to enlist some confederates to carry me through

>>124472728
You didn't get him.

>>124472837
Kill Amelia. Once she's dead you'll be able to trigger the Nightmare Frontier, which is where your first crescent gems start dropping.

You'll want to kill BSB anyways, though, and get the Chalice. Need those gems, bro.

Holy instadeath fug

Does BB use your character name or your PSN?

>>124472943
was his name in game joker skills? i played with someone named that but was wearing a white church outfit

>>124472956
You didn't get the post.

>>124472948
>17 vit
Whoah there, 27 is already way too low lad

>>124473048
I don't know, I always have it set to show PSN name.

>>124473046
in network settings you can change it to view peoples psn or their character name


i see lots of random digits for their character and psn names

are people retarded

>>124473046
Client side, there's a toggle option to show whichever. It's defaulted to PSN.

So uh, both?
I always switch it to character names for fun. My last DaS2 character's name was Mememaster J and it was a fat black guy using an ultra greatsword with white dreadlocks. Just stupid and fun.

>>124473046
Character name, I like to see what people come up with.

Unfortunately it's usually "skl"

What's a good origin to start at for STR/ARC?

>>124473130

I helped a motherfucker named 2.

I almost let him die just on principle.

>>124473201
It's a damn shame there's no item in the game that can make you a purple phantom during a co-op session just to punish people like this.

>>124473046
You can change it.
I go by character name because my PSN is JJ-blowfish and I can't change it and that frustrates me.

holy fuck i think i was helpin a shitter in ng+

ludwigs health was so fuckin huge compared to others. i wasted tons of vials for him to just get clobbered when he was at 30%

>>124473326

It only changes what you see tho, other people who have it set to PSN still see that name.

>>124473130
i just name my guy Snake mostly

it fits this bloodtinge character well now because i like using snek

>>124473439
I don't care as long as I don't see my OWN psn name.
I'd pay 50 bucks to change it.
