I have a BL54 Executioner that I use to invade and coop in Cainhurst and it is just a riot. 25/25 str/arc, full nourishing gem setup. Get a surprising amount of activity depending on the time of day, usually around three or four in the afternoon.

I highly recommend you pick up Radiance and fight the good fight, it's a ton of fun.

where should I go next with my build if I'm doing pure arcane? Right now the only thing I've put points into is enough vit to get to 30 and enough arc to get to 71. Should I just dump everything else into arc until it's at 99 then stay at 108 for chalice pvp/coop?

>>160904540
or looking at a calculator I could just do bl125, vit 40 / arc 99.

They throw jump scares at you too, and when you're playing on a Root they're officially unpredictable and only build tension. Although, sometimes you can pick them out.

Why exactly are vilebloods and church enemies to each other?
>>
>>160908371
Cainhurst nobles are distantly descended from Pthumerians and may or may not have been the ruling monarchy of Yharnam and surrounding areas pre-healing church.

Someone from Byrgenwerth took a sample of special blood back to Cainhurst and they used it to do thier own stuff to make themselves stronger and Analise immortal. She also become obsessed with birthing a child of Blood for Oedon, like Yharnam did (or failed to do) Millenia earlier.

Church hates them because they have different beliefs and use blood in a different way. However it might also be political reasons trying to discredit and later destroy the existing ruling class so the Church can become the closest thing to a government in Yharnam.

Thanks famygdala. Second one seems more plausible to me. Byrgenwerthians can be fucking scumbags man.

Do the Great Ones make the dreams or do the hosts of the dreams make them? How do they persist after their host and/or creator is dead?
What is the shadow figure thing you kill after the Orphan of Kos?
What does Ebrietas spit at you that causes Frenzy? What are those bubble things that continually damage you if you go near her?
Why do rather important story enemies like Ebrietas and Rom reappear in the chalice dungeons?

Sorry for the questions, I recently got the game and was curious.

Could the two giant fishmen in the well be considered a geminous great one?
>>
>>160909467
Think of it as a virus. The virus needs a host to exist. The vorus itself is the Great One while the host is, well the host.
We know that the host of mensis ist ayyycolash.
Yet I am not exactly sure who the host of the hunters nightmare is.
>>
>>160909529
I personally see it more like the great one being the "creator" while the host is the "designer" of the dream.

For the complete dlc the host would be maria, because she knows all of the places you visit.

The Great Ones create the dream but the hosts, along with passerbys, shape the Dreamlands.
>How do they persist after their host and/or creator is dead?
If the host of a party dies does the building collapse?
>What is the shadow figure thing you kill after the Orphan of Kos?
I believe it's either the Orphan's true form or the curses shaped like him.
>What does Ebrietas spit at you that causes Frenzy?
It might be her own blood. Who knows?
>What are those bubble things that continually damage you if you go near her?
Whatever the Rosmarinus fires.
>Why do rather important story enemies like Ebrietas and Rom reappear in the chalice dungeons?
Possibly bi-locations going on. The dungeons are in the nightmare after all.
>>
>>160909936
>The dungeons are in the nightmare after all.
No they're not? They're actual real-world locations within the waking world? Pthumeru is beneath Byrgenwerth. Loran is elsewhere, but also in the real world, as are the Hinterlands. Isz is much, much deeper into the Labyrinth. Descriptions of items relating to the Chalice dungeons state pretty plainly that they're in the waking world.

It really doesn't. 90% of the bosses dodge back if you're charging up an attack right in their face and the attack has less range than fists.
>>
>>160910123
Well then the bosses must have been cheaply reused.
>>
>>160910362
Time it right. You can take a few hits and rally most of your health back when you hit.
>>
Doing a Rakuyo build starting with noble scion, what do I use until I get it and should I go full skill and bloodtinge or put some points in arcane as well?
>>
>>160911118
Saws or Cane while pumping Skill. What's your build and how high are you aiming?
>>
>>160902383

God, this gaem is 2 edgy 4 me.
>>
Why is rakuyo so OP ? They do an insane amount of damage with a broken fast and large moveset
>>
>>160911223
Aren't the saws quality? I could barely kill Amelia with the cane I don't see me taking down Ludwig with it. I think I'll stop at level 120.
>>
>>160911686
Being Quality means it can be used effectively for Strength and/or Skill builds, so it's worth using while pumping Skill. BB Pellets + Fire Paper on the Cane or Saw Spear is enough to kill Amelia, your weapon should be at +6. NS: 40/8/10/50/50/9 puts you at 117 if you're going full Skl/Blt. Lone Survivor would've been a better option, or Military Veteran if you wanted to use the Bloodletter.
>>
>>160911686
Saw spear is quality leaning towards skill so you can use it. Cane is shit at low level but becomes a monster later
>>
>>160909930
it's magic
>>
>>160911864
I can farm in the gaol but it takes ages to kill the snatchers with the cane so saw spear it is.
>>
What's the highest dps weapon in the game at 50/50 str and skill? I wanna go NG+7 and beyond but don't know what to use going forward. Currently using Saw Cleaver/Hunter's Axe and gonna be looking into farming gems in the chalice dungeons. Still fairly new to the game
>>
>>160912230
I'd guess Ludwig's Holy Blade would have the highest AR if that counts for anything. It has B/B scaling when fully upgraded and can easily be S/B with the right gems.
>>
>>160912394
k imma try that. thanks
>>
>>160912230
Saws have the highest DPS, LHB highest AR but it's pretty slow and the untricked mode has shitty modifiers. With +30% Blunt gems and 50/50 it'll 2-shot most players.
>>
Any tips for getting the most AR out of Beast Claws and Steak Diner? Quality? Or favoring str over skl?
>>
>>160912821
50/25 Str/Skl, Heavy Abyssal with +15 Phys and 2 27.2% Phys gems.

What the fuck were those nips thinking when they decided to make this a "boss"? Witch of Hemwick is Ludwig tier compared to this garbage. The big mushroom ayy lmao man too
>>
>>160913867
I like to think they had a week left to launch and realised they were about 6 chalice bosses behind schedule and just gave some random mobs boss health bars.

At least Brainsuckers are a bit threatening, Loran Silver beast is a trash mob from the nightmare frontier who's almost impossible not to parry. Same with just sticking 3 Watchers in a room and incorrectly labelling the Chieftan (it's meant to be the one with the mask).
>>
Another question on the Rakuyo build, should I go skill/arcane or skill/bloodtinge?
>>
>>160914395
You only need Skill for it.
>>
>>160914479
I know I meant that as what complements it better, arcane stuff or a Chikage.
>>
>>160914329
They could have changed that and made all 3 watchers those naked guys. Would be way harder to be raped and gangbanged by 3 naked fatties
>>
>>160914557
Nothing is Skill/Arcane, and Chikage is only useful if you have 50 Bloodtinge.
>>
>>160914589
It should be randomised each dungeon.
> Club
> Shotgun
> Cleaver
> Heated Club
> Rolly poley

Each Watcher boss would be 3 of them with no more than two of the same kind, the configuration should have weighted gem drops to different kinds.

Who cares, I can use a 50/50 Saw Spear, Ludwigs with Blunt Gems and all the other meme-setups. I have a bl100 poison build I regularly take to Mensis and I win sometimes. I'll be able to handle myself.
>>
Heya, can anyone give me advice on what runes to run with a 50 skill/25 Str Burial Blade build?
>>
>>160914639
So I shouldn't bother with stuff like executioner gloves and augur of ebrietas? I thought those and old Hunter bone would be useful since 50 bloodtinge seems like way too much.
>>
what's the point of Ludwig's Rifle?
>>
>>160915992
Clock, Clock, Anti-Clock. Just like any other build.

>>160916015
Augur sure, Exe gloves won't do much damage at base 20 but it's okay as a PvP tool or to stagger some enemies. Highest I'd go would be 18 Arc for Augur.

>>160916134
It's a shittier Blunderbuss with more range, so if you missed the parry you at least staggered the enemy from a safe distance.

>>
>>160916237
staggering the enemies is kind of overrated, by the time you recover from your shot they're starting to move again
>>
>>160916520
You can visceral after getting a parry with the Rifle from a distance but the window is pretty small. It's still shit though, newbies love spamming shots with it while ganking.

Would that mean that the MP shows up at the end of the game to get revenge on you for killing his/her kid? And why does Gherman want to kill you? Did he just want to btfo the MP and then get you out before the ayy lmao shows up?
>>
>>160922062
I'm pretty sure that MP doesn't mind you killing Wet Nurse/Mergo. Queen Yharnam, which is Mergo's mom, thanks you for doing it.
Gehrman wants to kill you to free you from the Nightmare since you accomplished your mission and the night is over.
MP only attacks you if you kill the host of his dream and refuse to replace him.

Red is the hammer, with the yellow being the striking part of said hammer.

So little is known about the Crow of Cainhurst.
One would think he represents the Vilebloods and in the same breath the Queen only recognizes you as the only Vileblood serving her.
Him having the old hunter's bone would suggest he raided Maria's grave at some point.
The crowfeather garb would hint at some prior history with the Hunter of Hunters.

What is his endgame?

16/12 HMS is pretty shit. 40/18/20/12/5/50 puts you at 95 so you have 3 points till 98 to spare. I'd put it in either Vit or Str, maybe 2 in Skl for Church Pick.

Either reroll or disregard Str/Skl requirements and keep pumping Arc past 50. I wouldn't recommend sub-40 Vit but if you want really high Arc 30 Vit or lower is probably your best bet. Weapons don't scale as well as Tools past 50 so I doubt the L2 would be affected significantly.

Kos Parasite L2 is affected by an attack modifier, and is tied to AR. It's an attack, and it doesn't scale like Hunter Tools do.

Typically, although 25-skill hybrids kind of suck. Better to try for 40-4 Skill.

>What are the best weapons for hybrid builds like that?
Literally anything you can convert works fine.

If you really only care about efficacy then you're looking at Saw Spear and Whirligig.
>>
>>160932767
Why not?
>>160933015
That makes sense, i was just trying to think up a battlemage type character.
>>
>>160933526
>Why not?
You don't have a weapon that scales off both Skill and Arcane. Burial Blade and BoM don't count because they gain almost nothing from their Arcane scaling due to the pitiful base damage.
Best thing really is to just meet the minimum requirements for the Skill weapon you want to use, and then convert it to Arcane with gems.
>>
>>160933526
>battlemage type character
I did a 44/44 skl/arc so I could use tools but also use Beast Blood Pellets and Paper. That's about the only reason to incorporate phys stats that I can think of.

If 44/44 skl/arc works, there's no reason 44/44 str/arc couldn't work, but 25/50 str/arc is probably better in most cases.

There's 4 Str/Arc weapons. Tonitrus, Wheel, Boomhammer, and HMS. 25/12/50 and Nourishing gems is all you need for them. There are no Skl/Arc weapons (BoM and Burial Blade have shitty Arcane scaling).

I'm in no place to judge people for doing dumb shit in Chalice dungeons, but why are fighting bosses in Centeral Root? If you are going for Uncanny Saw Spear/Threaded Cane there's glyphs for the first layer.

That being said if you spelunking for the fun of it, could you please farm every shotgun Watcher you encounter enough times for him to drop a gem? If it's a uncursed radial then move on, he's shit, but if it's a Cursed Circle BLT gem then we need all the info we can get.

>>160939252
I like the idea of Chalice Dungeons, (the idea of a mystery dungeon Souls game sounds fantastic on paper) but the problem I have with BB's is that they're just slightly too formulaic far too much of of the time, and the areas look too similar (Isz looks too much like Pthumeru, and Hintertomb is mostly identical to Pthumeru, so you basically choose from Pthumeru or Loran for purposes of scenery), and, my same problem with BBI (although BBI was better about it) is that it's too goddamn claustrophobic.

If there were outdoorsy areas (like if they'd used assets from Forbidden Woods for a kind of "never-ending forest"-type chalice dungeon) that would have made so much of the difference.

The trophy isn't a great source of lore confirmation. Pretty sure the trophy says Rom is a Great One too.

The CE and his minions I think were created by the Church (possibly the choir) to have audience with the Great Ones. Oedon is the "father" of Mergo and I think the Wet Nurse is actually him, since he's said to be formless.

Maybe the translation of Wet Nurse from Japanese is gender neutral.

We're talking about OEDON you dipshit, who is said to be FORMLESS. Of course other great ones are not.

>'m disagreeing with you over the fact that a formless being somehow can interact with the physical world but not be affected by physical items like rags
Ok take God, who is never seen, and yet who acts on the world and performs miracles and shit. It's the exact same thing. Oedon cannot be seen nor touched nor wear clothes because he doesn't have a FORM
>>
>>160942679

>>160942984

I've been saying since release that the Pthumerian Labyrinth was far too important of a location to be abstractly portrayed through procedurally generated dungeons. It should have been a actually designed area(s) that physically connected to various points in Yharnam (Byrgenwerth hatch, a tunnel behind Eribritas, maybe even a small part accessible after BSB to open up the game). Chalice dungeons are filled with so many unique enemies and it's a terrible shame none of them were ever put into actually designed levels.

The area before Queen Yharnam is the same generic tunnels and rooms as Depth 1, filled with shitty trash mobs and Pthumerian peasants, when it should have been elaborate and grand architecture and a gauntlet of the most elite enemies guarding thier queen. I'm talking several Chalice Knights of each type standing as if they were actually guarding the Queen, not just placed in front of levers or chests, maybe even a roaming Hotdog patrolling the outside. Or whatever lore significant stuff From thought would be best. We should have also seen actual placed evidence of expiditions, not just plonking some random Church hunters as enemies around the place.

Instead of randomly generated dungeons, it should have been "nightmares". Where you fill a chalice with ritual materials and get transported to a mini nightmare area filled with reused assets and a different layout each time.

2/2

Underground labyrinth should have been one template (exact same as current dungeons), Yharnam streets should have been another, where reused city assets make a street level area, doesn't matter if it makes no sense architecturally because it's a nightmare. Another could be forest areas, same deal. And finally reused assets from Nightmare frontier to make weird floaty rocks connected by roots type areas. Each area has different enemies (nothing unique because that means wasted content that should be in main game) and different types of gems and rewards.

Plus give more control over dungeon content, instead of having 5 depths of Chalice's, depth should have been chosen by what type of ritual blood you used. Instead of preset lists of material, each ingredient should have done something and changed rewards in some way.

EG Ritual Blood 5 makes the dungeon max difficulty, adding a Bastard of Loran curses it, adding a Bloodshot Eyeball spawns Witches but increase item discovery for all players by 100, Yellow Baxkbone spawns something else but also makes offshapes 3x as likely, Arcane Haze makes Bellringers summon PVP players.

Get creative and make it fun to think up new "recipes" and don't canabilise the main game. Dungeons could have been great.

I was talking about God as a general concept, since he's the very description of a transcendental being, but that's ok anon, if you want to keep believing that the nurse is Oedon like the retard you are because you cannot open a dictionnary to check the definition of "formless" that's ok

Did the people of the Unseen Village ask the Great Ones to curse Mensis like the Fishing Villagers did when Byrgenwerth harvested eyes and destroyed their village?

Did Mensis try to do the exact same thing?
>>
>>160944678
I wouldn't want to play in Yharnam once again. It would be cool to play in the future where another city has been plagued with the scourge.
>>
>>160944954
I think it's only the school of Mensis who either forced or converted people to do it yeah, but the ritual was to summon Mergo, and not the result of an undesired curse like the hamlet which is the result of the bad events which happend there

>>160944954
The Unseen Village is the base for the School of Mensis. Long ago, they beckoned a blood moon to try to ascend and become great ones, much like Rom did. They beckoned Mergo and the first Blood Moon, and the ritual resulted in the stillbirth of their brains and subsequent entrapment in the Nightmare of Mensis.

The Blood Moon they summoned caused a hunt much like the one in the main game, and the result was Old Yharnam being torched and abandoned for the beasts.

In the main game, the remainder of the School of Mensis is trying to beckon another Blood Moon in a rescue attempt to free the original members from the nightmare. They succeed to a point, and summon most of the original school in the form of The One Reborn. The only two that they didn't get where Edgar and Micolash.

It's Mergo's Wet Nurse, not Mergo. A Wet Nurse breastfeeds a baby while the mother recovers from giving birth, this Wet Nurse was somehow keeping Mergo, the formless crying baby sound you hear, in a coherent existence. When you kill the Wet Nurse, Mergo ceases to exist coherently.

Oedon is the dad, and the horniest of the Great Ones. He porked both Queen Yharnam, who birthed Mergo, and Arianna, who birthed a fucked up lil demon baby that the Good Hunter subsequently stomped.

Stand underneath him to bait him to jump, run and stand where the end of his tail was, face the way his tail was pointing, and charge an R2. He'll land, and his head will drop into your charged attack.

Rinse repeat.
>>
For any Str/Arc builds out there, which weapon did you go and pick up first? HMS or Wheel
>>
>>160950420
Bait him to constantly jump. You can do that by standing a bit behind him. Then you have tk position yourself perfectly and before he lands start charging your r2. This will net you easy charged attacks and after 3-4 depending on your weapon you get a visceral

No, the camera will go wild during the jump. You could lock on as Amy comes down to direct your charge attack easier, or just stay unlocked and predict where the head will be.

I had more trouble locking on so I would say no. I would however advise you to either watch on youtube how they position themselves or die and see for yourself.

Just fucking look at Rom while you attack spiders. Keep an eye on her: that is literally the only difficulty in the fight.

They're good enough. BoM works well in 1v1s and against NPCs but lose out a bit on crowd control. Their tricked dashr1 is also a thrust attack which helps shred kin if you haven't got much else. Use them and have a secondary weapon to help with groups.

Hopefully never. Instead we need a spiritual successor that will take BB's core gameplay, improve its issues and make some changes while doing a completly new setting and setting us up for the unexpected. Our imaginations are too good, a BB2 would be nothing but disapointing, we need to be given something we didn't know we wanted.

>>160960326
Pirates, Wild West and Space could all be neat, and there's plenty of good stuff to revolve around like old sea gods, gold lust, lost technology, but they seem obvious.

I want Stone Age-Souls. The ice age begins to recede and humanity can finally begin to thrive, but the ice is also uncovering stuff the ice was originally made to seal away. Now the old wizard gods who made that ice are dead, what are you gonna do? Try and delve deep into the caverns of the earth for their secrets and plunge humanity back into frozen hell, or let the ice melt and the darkness consume the planet? You're also a barely human fucker with a spear being led by old ass shamans do some mystic nonsense you can barely comprehend.

Neat--didn't know BSB mobs could appear in the chalice dungeons. I've only seen HMPH, Hotdog, and the Undead Giants. I remember some anon posting a glyph with an Abhorrent Beast mob too.

Nice, man. I'll keep a lookout for it. I took a break from FRC Loran for a while because it seemed as if all the roots I would make were absolutely flooded with Hemwick witches. It was driving me nuts.

Why bother posting it here if you aren't using a pass?

Yeah, I know. It was just as if RNGesus had cursed all my Loran roots to never be anything but Hemwick witches. My Ihyll roots tend to be a lot more tame.

I always forget about what the notes say. Just came across one interesting. Laurence beckoned the moon (and therefore MP)? What exactly happened when the moon was beckoned? I'm thinking the beginning of hunter's dream.
>>
>>160971586
Hunters Dream started, Beast Plague got fucking bad in Old Yharnam, and they had to torch the place. Mensis got their brains stillbirth'd.

Basically, everything happened.
>>
>>160971943
>Mensis got their brains stillbirth'd.

The literal brain of Mensis or they all just went crazier? And how'd he beckon the moon to begin with?
>>
>>160972126
They all died, and their consciousnesses got trapped in the Nightmare of Mensis. "The Ritual resulted in the stillbirth of their brains."

You know all those mummies in Mensis cages, where you enter the nightmare from? Those are them. They're dead, and have been for a while.

Ritual to beckon the blood moon has something to do with one third umbilical cord, and infants. We don't know in detail. Assume dark shit.
>>
>>160972126
wasnt there a note saying something to the effects of cultists doing dark rituals and beckoning the moon? thats probably how

Rom has something to do with it but
"enlightenment is not shared"
or something

Are we to assume Gherman is dead as well and only inhabiting/running the dream? We know Maria is and I think she's behind the hunter's nightmare
>>
>>160972531
Well, good job on paying over, what, 200, 300 dingdongs for a single game because your patrician taste wills it? Not really an argument if you're incapable of having fun.
>>
>>160972657
Yes. Gehrman, Willem, and Laurence are the three important characters. Willem is old as shit, Gehrman and Laurence are both dead.

Everyone in the Hunter's Nightmare is dead, as the Hunter's Nightmare is more or less hunter hell, where all blood drunk hunters go after death as per the curse cast by the denizens of the Fishing Hamlet.

That makes Demons' Souls the only game I haven't SL1'd, but I can't seem to bring myself to play it due to how outdated it is.

>>160972980
My understanding of Nightmares was that they were a magic astral plane that reflects what happened in the real world and are created in the unconscious mind of the host and held together by Amygdalae

How hard was it? and did you beat the DLC?

Just gonna shill this video I just watched 'cause it actually showed me some shit I hadn't even seen before, and managed to deepen my appreciation of BB even more, if that was even possible.

I never thought too too much of the game's OST, I guess because you never really get a chance to focus on it when you're being pressed to play, and it's not in my nature to listen to them away from the game on my own time; but, the fucking music at ~11:00 and ~15:30 is just fucking incredible.

>>
>>160973225
I think Laurence founded the Church and I don't believe Maria was ever pregnant.
>>
>>160973249
Laurence was hardest for me.
Base game is incredibly easy compared to DLC.
I spent more time on Kos/Laurence than I did the whole game.

I dived into chalices immediately after BSB to get OP gems (20.3 ATKx2 and 16% ATK 14 flat attack) and it carried me pretty well, I still haven't replaced them

I think I prefer not leveling as I can use my echos/insight on paper/pellet
>>
>>160973414
>Laurence was hardest for me

He's literally Cleric Beast but with fire.

The only reason he should ever be any trouble for you is if you're fighting him with subpar weaponry -- or if you have never beaten Cleric Beast legit and only with the use of Molitovs have you ever gotten him down

>>160973225
Laurence founded the Healing Church and is the games main villain pretty much

Maria isn't the host of the Nightmare, Orphan is, and indirectly his mother Kos. He's also the one that keeps the curse alive, and keeps trapping more people in the Nightmare. Maria is just directly affected by the Hamlet curse, as she was one of the hunters that subjugated it.

Gehrman is the dream's host where he acts as a guide and mentor for all hunters that pass through on MP's business. These hunters include Djura, who likely was the Good Hunter of Old Yharnam, and Eileen, for some reason.
>>
>>160973634
Phase 1 is easy, it's phase 2 that always got me. Most times is me praying he spews lava so I can beat his face in. Outside that it's me running around the boss room because I can't figure out a good time to attack, since he has fuck huge range and I can't make a mistake or I'll die. Laurence has always given me trouble, more so than Kos ever has.

Kos is dead, but is also a Great One and likely still exists in some way incomprehensible to us. She summons lightning at her child's scream.
Orphan also isn't a great one. He doesn't share Great One's or Kin's weakness to thrust and bolt, and Kinhunter stuff doesn't work on him.

I saw that video today. It got me thinking about the layers of the nightmare again.
Theory, /bbg/: All the different planes we visit in the game, from pthumeru to the 'real' world' to the nightmares and the Dream all exist stacked on top of each other.
We already have evidence that the nightmares are stacked on one another. And likewise the chalice dungeons were found beneath byrgenwerth and presumably other areas in the Yharnam plane.
Could the dream be the highest layer? The dream we're familiar with is a pillar rising out of the clouds and we can see other pillars around our own. It seems to me, at least, that it is as high as you could go. We are unable to see up into a higher layer in any of the layers we visit outside of the nightmare frontier but I feel like the pillars are a symbolic tell that they are as high as any being has gotten. It could also explain why Mergo is at the top of the tower in the highest nightmare layer. To more easily contact a great one to keep him alive.*
The hardest connection of layers to make is the Yharnam layer and the nightmare layers. However there might be something to grasp on to in the left behind great ones. Some great ones are left in the catacombs, others, like ebby, in the Yharnam layer. So great ones initially ascended from the catacombs to the Yharnam layer, leaving the one's who couldn't behind. After that the great ones in the Yharnam layer ascended higher, leaving ebby and others behind. This process continues until we reach the dream layer where moon presence is.
*Somewhat irrelevant but is it possible that moon presence wants us to get rid of Mergo because he feels threatened by him and doesn't want him ascending to his own sky pillar?

Poorly structured but I'd still like to hear other's thoughts if you can get through it.

Second phase is a lot easier for me because I have enough vitality to tank whatever damage he spews and usually enough rally to get most of it back and I only have to back off when he starts putting magma under my feet.

First phase is a lot harder just because he has a fuckhuge AoE and I hate those. They're telegraphed like hell and I get that, but I still hate them.

Gascoigne goes from helpless behind a row of tombstones to incredibly aggressive and relentless. I'd say he qualifies for the list.

Rom goes from literally helpless to being able to launch arc turds at you that do big damage. Qualifies by default.

Whether or not he hits the second phase, Pthu gets harder.

Orphan gets more aggressive and gains area of effect attacks.

It's implied by Micolash that Kos, or some say Kosm, created Rom. But he's nuts, so maybe not.

Possibly, this is a bit unclear

>What is her purpose?
>Why does killing her trigger so much?
She's basically a dreamcatcher spider. She hides the mind-breaking reality from humanity.

>What was the school of mensis plan and who is the one reborn?
The Mensis plan was to create an Great One themselves, The One Reborn is the result.

They wanted to ascend. The One Reborn is a bunch of revived bodies. He's part of the Mensis ritual

Anyone have any advice for the further growth of my stats?

I'm not sure how much more I should put into ARC. I've never had enough blood echoes to see how dramatic 10 more points in it would be, and I don't rely on hunter tools or even use them that much except to target weak points on bosses if they're difficult to reach with a melee weapon.

I suppose, theoretically speaking, I'd use the hunter tools more at 80 ARC than the current 50 ARC, but how much would it increase my weapon damage?

+10 Ludgwig's btw, so not even S rank scaling.

Not by much at all. Weapons meet a cap 25, and then at 50. You'd hardly gain anything, and it's not worth investing more into Arc if you don't plan to use the tools.

Throw the remaining points into Vitality. 27 is too low.

>>160979050
Defiled Chalice and every Cursed Chalice, where you get top tier gems, halves your health.

27 is also hilariously too low if you ever plan to do any type of PvP, which i'm assuming you are because you asked for build advice and there isn't such a thing as a PvE build.

Defiled and FRC dungeons tend to be either one or two-shot territory at any given moment anyways, but you'll definitely be on the one-shot end of it with such low vitality, even by the most standard enemies.

If you plan to go into the FRC dungeons and farm for gems for PVP, you'll need the Vitality. If this is all just PVE, though, do what you want. Literally anything works in terms of stats.

There's "I want to have the best stats I can get without being an overleveled shitter" build

Oedon fucked Yharnam and she gave birth to his Formless Baby, named Mergo. Mergo was a great one, but an infant great one, so it resides in a nightmare with Wet Nurse looking over it.

Mensis enters his realm, but they never kidnap him or anything. They tried to contact Kos and instead beckoned Mergo.

Yharnam probably got preggo from Odeon. Yharnam was already in the hands of Mensis. So taking her babbo was probably not hard.

MP is probably threatened by Mergo. The beckoning of the moon may just be humanity messing with shit they shouldn't, like they've done before. Or it could be they want to replace MP with Mergo or something else entitely.

>>160979780
Mensis has nothing to do with Mergo other than accidentally dialing his number when they thought they were calling momma Kos.

Mensis tried to call Kos, so they could be granted eyes and ascend much like Rom did. They performed a ritual involving newborns and one third an umbilical cord, and beckoned a great one.
Because they used newborns to beckon him, Mergo responds, as he's also a newborn, and great ones are sympathetic in nature. He tries to grant their request, but in his infantile actions, he brings about the stillbirth of their brains and pulls them into his nightmare.

A lot of great ones are kinda weak physically. Celestial Emmisary, The One Reborn, and Rom are all pretty weak. Hell even MP is pretty low tier. Which is probably why it has you do it's dirty work.

99 is too many points invested to be worth it, if you're trying to end on a good PvP level. 70 let's your tools have more kick, but with the way the curve works, you really don't get substantial increases past 50 until like 90 or something, so it's those 20 extra points aren't as worth as much as they could be.

Because you hit a cap at 50, and any points put into BLT after that point are a total waste.

Because Arc is the only scaling stat that doesn't cap hard at 50. Every other stat stops giving substantial benefits at 50, except for Endurance which stops giving you more stamina at 40.

That's incorrect, because you don't know what a hard cap is. A hard cap means it stops giving ANY returns because it's as high as it'll go. 50 is just another soft cap. Even END, that soft caps at 40, continues giving returns all the way up to 99 in terms of defenses.

>>160981318
It's even more confusing than that, because weapons cap at 50 anyway, only hunter tools scale past 50.

And then it gets worse because the curve isn't even a fucking curve, it just gets shittier scaling past 50 until 90 and then suddenly has normal scaling for the last 9 points.

Arcane is weird.

That's sort of the problem. We're not really sure how great ones normally come about. Even the Good Hunter was originally human.
I personally believe Great Ones are those who have collected a great amount of eldrich knowledge and didn't lose their shit. The Good Hunter for example gains a huge amount of knowledge from the umbilical cords then, when MP goes to turn him into it's servant it realizes he's dangerous and decides to kill him. After MP dies Good Hunter takes its' insight and becomes a great one himself.

How do I beat him without asking for help?
>>
>>160982796
somehow the only boss i managed to do without ever dieing. i just kept rushing him with lhb and slapping his face to prevent him calling 1-800-BEYOND
it all went rather smooth

When he uses the unstunable Call From Beyond you can only pop a bone and hope Kosm hears your prayers. If you found Mic easy you're literally the king of shitters.
>>
>>160982796
it is possible to kill him without the risk of him attacking but you'd need to know the arena by heart.

I unwillingly cheesed him to death because I knew where he was going to run/appear next and always was a step ahead of him

took a long time as he always vanishes once you hit him but doable

> I dived into chalices immediately after BSB to get OP gems (20.3 ATKx2 and 16% ATK 14 flat attack) and it carried me pretty well, I still haven't replaced them

It's good to know someone found my autism interesting. I've had to work every day so video editing has been slow. But it's coming.

Back in my day Mico was considered one of the easiest bosses in the game. What the fuck happened?

Defiled Hotdog has more than any other Souls boss. I don't even want to know about Depth 5, layer 4 root Hotdog.

You know you can shoot him, right?

Never thought I'd come back to BB after spending so much hours in 2015.

Now I'm captured again. BB truly is one if the best video games ever.
>>
>>160983550
People realised it's an experience, not a boss fight. There's infinitely more pleasure in playing along with the creators and Micolash's character than cheesing for a quick win.

Not when he gets to a certain point in the animation.

The next DLC better fix this.

Stay close and always strafe. Even if you're just walking Auger will typically miss. If you dodge, you'll stand still for a fraction of a second before dashing, so I've found simply strafing to be the best way to not get hit. Strafe and stay close and he shouldn't call beyond, then the only thing you have to worry about is getting punched. If you have to heal, do it after he misses an Auger. If he does call beyond for whatever reason, shoot him
>>
>>160984021
It will. Next DLC also is confirmed to fix Rakuyo hitboxes, improve the games netcode framework, nerf saws, make BMA give diminishing returns to gun damage the higher your bloodtinge is, add a Powderkeg Oath rune, fix Guidance 3 being unobtainable, and add a special Hunters Nightmare chalice where you can fight the DLC bosses. Ludwig drops top tier nourishings, Laurence drops top tier Fire gems, Orphan drops top tier Bolt gems, Failures drop top tier Arcane and Physical gems, and Maria drops top tier Physical and Bloodtinge gems. As gem shape is based on chalice, gem shapes are entirely random here, meaning that offshapes don't exist in this chalice.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I didn't find him difficult until NG++, when his attacks started doing unspeakable damage

>>160984209
>fucking 999999 ARC Augur
Micolash's damage is absolutely absurd in higher NG cycles

>>160984187
The DLC will also suck your dick, build a wall around america, make said america great again, be in anor londo meme v3.0, contain lusty twins and, my favorite of all, allow you to wield a giant dragon dildo that morphs into a BIGGER dragon dildo for that sweet butthurt damage

Thanks. So stay close, strafe, and interrupt his one-shot move with a gun. I think I can take him.

The dragon dildo weapon also has a unique visceral attack animation of your hunter shoving it up your opponent's ass and destroying their colon.

Not any old Newborn will work, they specifically need a "special baby" (this is straight out of Miyazaki's mouth). Mergo was the crucial part of the ritual not a result of it.

This.

Would've been a hell to animate but:
Sawcleaver/spear: from the into cutscene, kicks enemy down and saws them in half

kos parasite: full blown tentacle rape in a ll holes

beast claw: just tearing the enemy apart

Moonlight Sword: thrust inside, then activate

stake driver: thrust inside, then activate

pizza cutter: pull enemy over spinning blades


oh my inner edgy teens is krawling in my skin just thinking about it
