Great fashion, though. Always love seeing ya

So, for the people who did NG+:

Do enemies drop better gems? Like that Executioner in Central Yharnam, he drops Tempering Blood Gems (1) in NG. Does he drop higher tiers on NG+? I'm not looking for those insane FRC gems, just slightly better than what NG has to offer.

>>170172842
Nope. Gems are the same throughout all NG's.

Why though?
Also post at least those two.

So there is a sinister lower loran in the spreadsheet, glyph is 4i5efewz and for some reason don't meet its requirements. On the spreadsheet none of the boxes for FRC have an X in it and I already made a sinister lower loran. Is there anything I forgot to meet the requirements?

>>170172842
Nope. One of the biggest disappointments of NG+ desu.

>>170174641
IF your Arc stat is decent. At bare minimum-to-use-it Arc but very high Vit I imagine it doesn't heal all that much. But yes, you can convert bullets to healing with it, which is pretty cool.

Segalt, thx for helping me with Ityhl yesterday. always appreciate the assistance

On weapons that already have good arcane scaling, cold abyssals are not as valuable. On Ludwig's Holy Blade, for example, one cold abyssal, a 27.2% and a 23.1% radial from a BAH is only 5 AR worse than having two cold abyssals with the 27.2%

Kos Parasite does better with percent gems if you have 50 arcane or under

Ahh

I'm the first person you quoted and that's exactly what I said: LHB is only about 5 AR better with the second cold abyssal. You're better off using a percentage gem for it and saving the second cold abyssal for a weapon with poor arc scaling that actually needs it

>>170171216
>Yeah, there's that. But think about it, if something already has an A scaling, you only need one Cold gem and can use the other two slots for more interesting stuff.

Just weighing in on this. Anything under a natural A scaling (meaning, I think, everything except LHB), benefits more from two Colds.And LHB only just barely gets more out of a second damage gem.
Go figure the moment I delete the post to fix it someone replies

speaking of cold abyssals, I just got one from a random SRRC boss coop vs Ithyll Elder, woot

>>170177096
>LHB is only about 5 AR better with the second cold abyssal. You're better off using a percentage gem for it and saving the second cold abyssal for a weapon with poor arc scaling that actually needs it
I'd agree if it wasn't so much easier to get Cold Abyssals than elemental Abyssals. I mean, if you have one then obviously you might as well, but if I was starting from scratch I'd just put two Colds in the thing.
Then again I don't even use an LHB. I got and +10'd that one just now to make the webm.

>>170178431
Delete that shit you faggot. You're supposed to lurk and collect those pics.

>>170177852
Only +1.5% stam down! I love how they have half curses and full effects. The only bad curses on cold abyssals are 4% ATK down (of course) and 5% beasts down (but still not that bad). Even HP drain is fine because you can totally offset it with a pulsing gem in your gun.

>>170177802
Eh, I've come across a lot of percentage gems in my time helping with cursed SRRC bosses (especially defiled hotdog), farming bone ash hunters, and migrating dungeons to fight Elder - even though I never look for them specifically. And two cold abyssals per weapon is a lot of cold abyssals when you have every weapon converted.

I tend to use two percent gems (one Watchers 25-27% triangle and one scrap 22-24.8% waning/radial) with a single cold abyssal for every weapon except my general purpose/PVP one, where I have two colds. I usually just switch weapons based on what enemy I am fighting

You're losing some damage but not much. On most weapons a CA is worth about a 25-6% gem. But what's <2% of a weapon's AR? Not much.

Is this normal? Seems like the boss was optional since it was a dead end but are there more bosses in BB that are damage sponges? The other bosses I fought so far actually took damage when I hit them.

>>170179590
yeah, it all adds to your "Discovery" stat, which determines the odds that an enemy will drop no item, bullets or vials or some shit, or whether they drop something rare like a blood gem. If they do drop a gem, discovery has no effect on what that gem will be.
You dont really need it to be that high when farming dungeons; usually just having the Eye 3 rune equipped (+100 discovery) is enough to make most enemies like bone ash hunters drop gems most of the time. Maybe if you have no arcane stat you might need the Eye 2 rune (+70 discovery) from the brain of mensis as well.

>>170179882
Maybe it's durability low? I noticed that weapons lose a decent chunk of damage when at risk.

>>170180008
No, it was at 200/250 I checked that too. Even had a 2,1% extra damage gem inside.

>>170179882
>are there more bosses in BB that are damage sponges?
Yeah man. Most of them. BB's a pretty shitty game.

>>170180086
>2,1%

>>170179882
That's normal I think. Once you gitgud you'll be faster and use openings more efficiently so your damage output will get higher.

>>170180086
Thats a bit odd, but I guess that's just how things are then. I killed him with steak diner, this is my first playthrough as well.
>are there more bosses in BB that are damage sponges?
Some Chalice bosses. They're optional though.

I have never beaten the game, I dont want to rush it.

>>170183701
Hintertombs are worth it for the Madman Set, but not much past that. The gems get outclassed by other dungeons, and it's exactly the same design as Pthumeru. If there were Depth 5 Hintertombs with a different coloring, I wouldn't have a problem.

>>170184142
Then its doubly so better to wait with the chalices that require (5) material, the gems that you'll find could make the main story trivial, and you'll lose out on the experience of an actual fight instead of just stomping bosses with chalice gems

>>170184142
What the fuck?
You said you were dropping the game though. You would rather not play at all instead of completing it normally?

>>170184142
Mate, if you're currently farming Tomb Mould (5), then you're far, far stronger than necessary to beat the game. All three final bosses are pushovers compared to Depth 3 dungeon bosses.

I forgot about the grab attack. Oops

I'm a big fan of scythes but a quick look at the wiki showed that you can only get two of them after finishing the main story, one in NG+ and one in the DLC. Is there anything else or can I really not find a scythe in a game that was made for them? I want to be the grim reaper, fuck.

anybody feel like going thru Ithyl FRC with me?

I am constantly getting summoned into ailing loran and lower loran abhorrent beast stages because all these stupid hosts are dead-set on clearing out those red-spider traps for their woeful reward of 4 QS bullets or some ritual blood (4). Those stupid rooms are twice as hard as abhorrent beast himself.

I think there is a similar curiosity-trap before the ailing loran Blood-Starved Beast stage. Might even be one before Loran Darkbeast. It's always in the bonus room right before the boss, so that your cooping with the person through the whole level was all for nothing because they never made it to the boss.

>>170185212
You literally just mentioned the fact that the games have two scythes(If you consider Church pick a scythe), what more do you want?

Is there a way for me to join random bobos online who are facing bosses? I know you usually have a password you have to match, but I thought there was a way I could just go to a boss area and help randos

Well, that was fun. Thanks for dropping by Segalt.

>>170185616
Ring the bell?

>>170185616
Yep, just ring without a password near the fog gate and you'll pick up some randoms. Make sure you're conscious of your BL, though. Certain areas get more activity around certain ranges. ~100 is great for the DLC, and SRRC is always active.

posting for awareness

>>170185212
Okay, let's clear this up. The actual scythe, called the Burial Blade, is pretty much the second-to-last weapon you'll acquire in the main game. You get it for defeating a boss who can potentially be the final boss, so you might only get to use it in NG+, but you can trigger the events necessary to unlock an additional final boss. In that case you can kill the dude who gives you access to the Burial Blade, then let the boss after murder you and bam, you can now do the DLC with your fucking awesome new scythe.

There are two more weapons you could call scythes in the DLC. One is the Church Pick, which is sort of a scythe, but also sort of a stake on a stick. It can be acquired about halfway through the DLC, with the DLC technically available after the third boss, but going there right after unlocking it will get you killed.

Then there's the Amygdalan Arm, which is a living limb that looks very scythe-like when extended. If you are exceedingly brave, it is possible to get this as soon as you unlock the DLC, but only if you know EXACTLY where you're going.

That said, all three are perfectly usable weapons and NG+ is a perfectly valid option. It's just not going to be the weapon you'll use for most of your first playthrough.

>>170185212
You absolutely do not have to go into NG+, just use the OP links to find the Uncanny and Lost versions of the Burial Blade in the chalice dungeons, there you go.

If you're new to Bloodborne I'll give you a protip : you're supposed to do visceral attacks on bosses to take a chunk of their health at a time. BSB in the first and second phase has pretty good tells for when they're good to parry (when they're winding their arm back).

The bad side is that if you miss the visceral, BSB's tard rage may very well end up killing you. If all else fails, retreat to the back of the room where the big altar is and ring around the rosie it and occasionally give it a wack around the corner.

This is also a good cheese strat for Gascoigne when he puts on his murrsuit and tries to yiff you : just ring around the rosie around the big gravestone and take swings at him around corners.

I do parries/viscerals frequently so for BSB I only had like 7 bullets left. Then I managed to parry it once and still did pitiful damage, so I just didn't use them anymore.
I probably used like 15 bullets on Gascoigne, I didn't feel like parrying him is cheesy, especially since he is one of the first bosses and a good fight to learn parrying.

I find it much easier to stay locked on to him the whole fight, except when he is summoning lightning. Then you should unlock and watch Kos' corpse for the lightning waves coming out of it. Don't get too greedy with hitting him or he will smack you back before you know it. I find there is no specific way you should dodge him every time; you should dodge towards / into his swings if you don't have time or space to dodge out of the way, and dodge away if he is doing a phase-1 close range tantrum (or if you have room and are unsure of the timing/spacing). Just keep your eyes on his weapon and dodge "lazily" - the more antsy you get, the more likely you are to panic dodge and take massive counter damage. Dodge to the sides when he does that underhanded attack or throws pink ball(s) at you, and for most of his attacks where he throws himself at you in phase 2. When he charges up that double 360-degree attack in phase 1, I usually just back away because the damage is too tremendous if I fuck up the dodge.

Attack him when he is exhausted after doing a combo at you, and keep hitting a few more times if you managed to make him flinch. It takes him a while to turn to face you when he just finished attacking, and you can sometimes hit him 2-3 times as he turns before he immediately strikes back.

When he jumps in the air in phase 2 after grabbing some pink shit and then throws three exploding pink balls at the ground that expand outwards, just stand underneath where he jumped and charge an R2 on him for when he lands.

Mostly, just don't be greedy and don't panic dodge. Be prepared to dodge out of the way after every time you hit him. That means manage your stamina.

>>170185212
you can pick it up the version you want (uncanny) before in a non-FRC Lower Loran root dungeon, using this glyph: kkqmduet

it's in the first bonus area. You've gotta beat up to Loran Darkbeast to get that glyph working though.

>>170189140
It's very possibly that just going into the fucking sky brings you into the Nightmare. Everything could be connected, no matter how tangentially. I do think the waking world (our world, the world Yharnam is in) and the Nightmare are totally different places, but honestly, maybe you just have to go out far enough in the right place with the right item and the veil is opened to a totality of nature that encompasses everything. Nature on Earth and nature on an alien world look different, but it's all Nature, regardless of where you are, the laws of the universe by which the vagaries of life operate.

The other worlds might just straight up be parallel universes where things happened ever so slightly differently, according to how each player does their thing. Just potentially endless layers of incredibly similar universes (being copies of BB sold).

All we know the sky and cosmos are one.

jesus christ, I dont even know what to do. I literally cant avoid it

>>170190651
Well he finally went down. It's sudden when he opens with the jumping attack, but slightly delaying your roll usually helps to avoid a counter hit.
At least we know there won't be another Undead Giant boss to deal with in this FRC.

Definitely the Rakuyo. Call it overrated shitter bait all you want, but there is something really satisfying about the way the tricked version can chain attacks together. You feel like you're playing a crazy fighting game when wielding it.

Changing the subject, I just killed my beckoner in random SRRC by dragging an enemy to him because I he was AFK in front of the boss door for almost 5 minutes while I tried to get his attention. It's funny and I never feel bad about it because you shouldn't waste everyone's time by beckoning while you're afk

jesus fuck, this Ityhl FRC dungeon does NOT mess around

Did NG+ make anyone else realize how short the game actually is

I'm no speedrunner and I'm not even good at the game but in like an hour and a half at most I went from Iosefka's Clinic to fighting The One Reborn. Once you know where all the enemies are and which bosses are optional it's crazy how quickly you can just run past everything.

What are the common levels to be at in this game aside from 98?

>>170191964
Undead giant is fine once you play patiently, still fucking cancer, but bearable.
Abhorrent beast on the other hand is the most annoying fucking shit ever.

>>170192398
98™

>>170192398
I play to 108, just to be at the middle of our supposed "meta."

>>170191310
the most fun weapons are the heavy ones that can pancake enemies and deal "massive" impact damage. It's always great to see an enemy go flying, or to stun a huge enemy out of an incoming massive attack because your attack is just as strong. Sending a huge scary motherfucker like Pthumerian Descendent flying with your churck pick or untricked moonlight sword's charged R2 followup is so satisfying.

I never can get that same feeling out of using the lighter weapons like the rakuyo or the cane. Sometimes it's hard to even see what weapon someone is using when it is something small like rakuyo or BoM and all you can see is their back. That's not stylish at all

>>170191310
what about the amygdala arm? that weapon is so cool but it seems to be ignored. you literally have the limb of a great one as a weapon and it's alive too. that's cool as shit

>>170191964
>throw a couple of poison knives at the undead giant

I just love the Amy Arm, it's a big nonsense monster arm you swing around like a maniac, BIG stomps, WIDE slashy swing, pancake fuckers and it hits THREE times.

Enjoying your unga bunga weapons much? Some people like combos, a varied move set and style. Let me guess, you main Leo in Guilty Gear and Urien in SFV? LEL, low IQ scrub.

>>170192779
The Amy arm's moveset is amazing. The untricked charged R2 drives it into the ground, and then the R2 followup pulls it out so hard that it launches enemies straight upwards in the air. Then the transform attack from tricked to untricked takes forever, but it pancakes enemies so hard if it connects. And the tricked charged R2 has those two awesome claw followup hits if you keep holding R2, and hits around you / behind you a little bit when you are swinging it normally. Transform attack from untricked to tricked is fast as fuck, and the tricked version has range. Meanwhile the animations for the untricked R1 combo look and sound fucking awesome, like you are pulverizing your enemy into oblivion.

AND it has pretty decent rally. Really awesome weapon that I totally overlooked at first

Currently having a blast with amy arm. Side/backstep attacks have really deceptive range and as well as incredibly wide attack arc. The untricked charged R2s are also perfect bait material, and you can also animation cancel the tricked regular R2 to throw people off. Also solid PvE stunlock potential and great Rally regen.
It's also a mummified hand of a mi-go on steroids.
My only complaint would be the fact that 3rd and 4th R1s are vertical and not horisontal, so you can't just swing away at a horde of enemies, be they players or mobs. Well, that, and the fact that as I'm told it doesn't work on a STR/ARC build despite being pefectly appropriate thematically.
It really is just my first character and I haven't tried other builds yet, but I feel like I'm in love.

Is it just me or the graveguard hood looks a bit phallic?

You good to go for Layer 3 Segalt? these stupid faggot red spiders keep attacking me when I linger near the bell

>>170193068
Small weapons movesets just all kind of look the same unless you actually watch carefully the player swinging it. "Unga bunga" big weapons grab your attention when you aren't even watching because the attacks and their impacts look so impressive. The jump attacks from weapons like the saif or the rakuyo look pathetic compared to the awesome jump attacks from big heavy hitters the LHB / HMLS / bloodletter / boom hammer / wheel etc.

>>170193983
Looks like a KKK hood honestly

Pointy things existed before dicks existed

>>170194185
I'd say the Butcher Mask rivals it for KKK-style hood.
On that subject, are there any head pieces that go well with the Butcher's Garb without the Mask itself?

>>170194125
Yep, sorry for the delay. I kept getting point-blank charged by Maneater Boar like a clown.

>>170193068
But unga bunga weapons in BB have fast untricked movesets.
If anything, they have more variety of moves on the merit of that.

>>170194410
Yahar'gul helm, both versions

>>170194412
That maneater boar charge is really hard to dodge for some reason. I always fight the boar w/ the camera unlocked, and even if I iframe the charge with a roll, the boar will often "catch" me anyway and carry me (w/ no damage) into a wall, where it one-shots me from full HP. Assuming you are fighting it in the long hallway arena with columns (I never see it anywhere else) - in the first 1/4th of the arena on the side of the entrance, there are two corners in the wall you can use to hide from the boar's initial charge attack. Once you dodge the charge, if you just stand to the side of its legs - almost in danger of being kicked by them - and the pig cant touch you for the rest of the fight

>>170192141
Nothing wrong with a game being speed-runnable. That doesn't mean it's really short; just that a lot of the content is skippable or optional. A true "short game" would be like where you can finish it and do all the content in ~5 hours

>>170195928
In smaller arenas, I usually sprint straight to it and close the distance to avoid baiting the initial charge. Gets a bit more troublesome in the longer arenas where the tracking can snag you well. Most of what I die to, though, is this thing it does where it breaks into a charge attack immediately after taking a visceral attack.

This. I actually think the "boring ass" hunter's axe has one of the coolest looking movesets in the entire game. It looks like a barbarian axe, but you wield it and apply leverage to the swings like a kung fu master. And the moveset is so versatile. NO weapon is better at killing amygdala from the front / on the ground

>>170194410
I wore the master's iron helmet for a long time with it.

>>170196421
Don't even bother with viscerals. If you stand behind and to the side of their hind leg with the camera unlocked, they literally cannot hit you unless you accidentally walk into their head-swing attack or their kick (less likely). You just whittle them down with regular attacks and make sure they don't get you stuck against the wall or columns so you can always dodge their bodyslam.

Segalt, gonna take like an hour long break. gotta shower and try jumping my car.

That's some really nice fashion anon, and hoontas axe is definitely an underappreciated weapon. I guess there is some stigma against it because of all charged R2 babies, but it might also be a great way to make your opponent underestimate you.

>>170196830
Why would you not bother with Viscerals? As soon as the first one lands, it's dead, period. Until it manages to stand up, your charge attack is done charging, you hit it, it staggers, you fist it, repeat until its dead.
I'd rather do that instead of a drawn-out fight I might lose halfway through.

Are we still talking about the FRC dungeon boss version? Because unless you're an overleveled skill / quality build with three clawmark runes and three max thrust gems, one visceral wont come close to killing a depth 5 FRC maneater boar.

But hell I've been playing an arc build for the past month so maybe I'm just used to doing things without viscerals

Just sifting through Bloodborne lore:

>thanks to the School of Mensis, we know that "stillbirth of the brain" is an actual, literal thing that can happen to you in the Bloodborne verse if you gain too much Insight
>gaining Insight means lining your brain with eyes
>Willem wanted to ascend his thoughts to the plane of the Great Ones
>Willem is just a vegetable when you do finally meet him who can barely raise his staff and point vaguely towards the lake while moaning
>the Brain of Mensis is a Great One that is basically a rotten brain lined with eyes
>there is no mention where exactly the School of Mensis found the Brain

Could it be that Willem's brain went walkabouts and became a Great One without the rest of him? Am I grasping at straws here? Or is this incredibly obvious and I'm a moron for just now realizing it?

>>170198805
No, you won't kill it. But you can lock it in an endless cycle of backstab-->visceral-->backstab as soon as that first backstab connects, and that cycle will eventually kill it as it cannot break out

>>170199093
Not the anon you're talking to, but if I recall, the FRC one can kick you in the mouth after the visceral if you try to do a chain

>>170198889
Willem has something growing out of the back of his head and neck, it's possible he ascended to a degree. I wouldn't say that his brain became the Brain of Mensis, the scholars found it in the Nightmare, but he almost certainly ascended.
His Insight reached the point he looked up in the sky and saw the face of Miyazaki gazing back at him. This is why he wears the Blindfold Cap.

>tfw you will never ascend to the slug paradise

I always just thought those were mushrooms, to illustrate how fucking long he's been sitting there

To a retarded paralitic? Willem clearly failed ascension

>>170197767
Please put the Pthumeru Ithyll glyph " bigkr99w " at the top of the list for cold abyssal farming dungeons, or otherwise make a note to indicate that it is significantly faster and easier to use for farming than any of the other cold abyssal glyphs listed.

The Elder is only on layer 3 (in the other glyphs he is either on L4 or his lever is protected by a roaming Pthumerian Descendant boss), while the L1 and L2 bosses are just Keeper and Beast possessed soul. And the hardest part is just layer 2, where you've got a buffed fatty roller guarding the lever with a bunch of pthumerians. But you can just kill the pthumerians and lure a nearby beast possessed soul to fight the fatty roller as you pull the lever. Works every time.

Also no hemwick witches or hunters on the main trail

Anyone else play with no HUD on? I do it even in multiplayer to prevent burn-in / image retention on my plasma TV, and it's really not as hard to play with as you would think. It gives you a real natural feeling for what your character is capable of in terms of how much damage you can take/deal and you stamina capabilities. The worst part is switching between quick items. The extra immersion is really cool though

use the tricked mode on your weapon and stay under or behind the beast as best as you can, aiming for his legs. eventually you'll stagger him and hell be open for a visceral or you can keep hitting him with power shots that'll send him crumbling to ground, leaving him very vulnerable for more heavy attacks. repeat this and you'll beat him soon enough.

BL25 is a bit on the low side, but make sure you play unlocked. The best way to do it is to target Paarl's limbs. If you deal enough damage, it will collapse and you'll be free to hack away for a couple of seconds. Try focusing on one limb at a time to make it easier.
You can i-frame roll through the AOE blast, but it's risky. Still, if you feel like you can get the timing down, go for it.

>>170206265
Don't want to be locked on in that fight.
Best entry method is rolling through it's initial sideswipes to get access to its legs.
If it starts charging up a bolt explosion in response, get out of there. Rolling just as it blows also works.

Where should I be ringing for Amelia, fog or lamp?

>>170205583
Are you creating the FRCs yourself?

Just FYI, you can savescum before you make a dungeon and share the dungeon / write down the glyph, then just load the savescum and regain all the materials while still maintaining access to the dungeon by using the glyph search.

Basically this means you can make unlimited dungeons if you have enough to make one dungeon.

I died fighting this guy with a bag in that chapel area, got taken somewhere, ran past everything died a few times. Got to the boss, got raped.

Anyone farming Cold Abyssals (or any other kind)?

Now that I have this LHB I might as well gem it.

>>170207050
Coming.

>>170206265
play unlocked, roll around a bit and hit it

>>170206797
So what's a appropriate level?

>>170207226
You want 30 Vit and your weapon at at least +3. BL doesn't actually matter much.

>>170207034
It's not in any way mandatory. Like yourself got it at low level first run, not particularly great equipment.

Had great fun finally learning to beat it and felt like overcoming a massive hurdle. It's where a lot of things clicked for me.
>>170207226
25 BL isn't necessarily unappropriate. Think it's operating more on the assumption of 25 BL on a first run.
Whether vit's at high 10s or low 20s+ is probably the better metric, as that takes certain attacks away from 1-shotting range, makes some 2-shots into 3-shots.
Most people swear on absolutely massive Vit, and honestly there's solid reason to do so as it makes everything much more forgiving. However for the main game 25 Vit will keep you from being OHK'd.

>>170207456
I got another question it's about stunning a enemy, do I shoot them at the start or near the end of their attack?

>>170207226
4

>>170207226
farming cold abyssals is best done solo unless you are helping a host farm them in which case you get to keep all your gems, chunks and rocks. just have to find an idiot willing to host for you. good luck

>>170207674
Depends on enemy and the attack. Best thing's to experiment, but most often it's when they're at the point in an attack where they've got the highest momentum.

There are exceptions, but most of the time aim for the peak of their momentum.

Nice sliders, mind posting a close up?

I'm still new to this game and I have no idea what you're saying, dumb it down for me.

Welp, the large messanger anon invaded and slaughtered my undergeared/leveled ass. Wonder if he's browsing the thread right now.

Drako, ringing at Layer 1 bell

>>170207456
BL matters a lot in early game because of the way physical DEF works and scales with your level. Attacks do a lot more damage to you if you are very low level

>>170207896
I'll try, but I don't know how to transfer the screenshot to here though.

>>170208482
Make the throwaway twitter account and use the PS4 share button.

>>170208482
USB stick or HD is what I use.

>>170207820
>just have to find an idiot willing to host for you
or people can just agree to each run the dungeon simultaneously and take turns hosting for eachother to farm gems, because it ends up being 5x faster for both players

>>170208660
Okay, will do

An easy way to cheese [the powder keg hunter is by using the charge attack of the bowblade. As soon as you get up the ladder, before he's even finished turning around, just hit him with a charged attack and it'll knock him right off.

>>170209107
Okay now I got invaded by someone using a rapid poison chikage, and unsurprisingly even I managed to win.
Are you coming? Or am I ringing at the wrong place?

Is there anyone that can help me with FRC Keeper? Had a dude who was helping but he died right away twice and left

pw is shaka

>>170209212
You can also do that with a gun.

I LELLED. Booting up my PS4 for a keeper is a bit much, though. Why are you having problems?

>>170208660
I'm having trouble with technology so I'm just going to post a pic from my phone if that's okay with you guys

>>170209264
I'm coming, just had some trouble with technology and the rifle spear fag. will be ringing in a sec

>>170209445
Well I didn't leave, I went and tried to kill her in my world and it took a while cause I visceraled her and she got stuck in the ceiling.

>>170208104
It really doesn't though.

Going from 10 def to 212 reduces attacks from the Central Yharnam axe-and-torch Yharnamites by about 50%.

Differences in BL at low levels are completely negligible.

>>170209723
>>170210036

At this point its a mental block. I cant stand the fact that she cant attack me in the middle of my charged R2s. The disc is on my knee and Im ready to snap it. Please someone fucking help me

I dun goofed, Beastclaws anon.
Tell me if you've succeeded.

>hit her so she does the double swipe
>parry and visceral when she's on the pillar side and riposte
BAM now just BB L2 into the ceiling forever

>>170211123

IT DOESNT FUCK WORK

and she cant be stun locked. I hate this fucking game so fucking much. she literally interupts me in the middle of my R1s. I NEVER EVER EVER should have left my ARC and BLTs builds where I can spam enemies with Bow Arrows and Exec Gloves. Ive never hated a game so much. Thanks for helping me out guys.

Should I fill up my Vit or put the last two into End? There isn't really any point in putting points into Str for the Bloodletter is there? Tricked seems better in every way.

Also do stam cost increase gems not trigger until a certain threshold or something? I put in a 2.8% gem and it seemed to not make any difference at all. Putting in another 2.9% gem resulted in a tiny difference and adding a third 3.0% gem made a bit of a difference.
Also do -durability gems give a flat -X to the weapon's default durability or is it somehow percentage based?

>>170211346
It works. You need to time the parries as you would on any other enemy. Shoot her as she fires up her sword to prevent her from going into her second phase.

Alright friendo, I killed Amy. Are you up for the chalices now?

>>170211346

>>170211694
>her

Keeper is a dude, yo.

>>170211694

Still doesnt work, no matter when I shoot her. Ive given up on parrying, since the windows are so inconsisent for each enemy. I gave up on the FRC Watcher. She just plows through me in the middle of my charged attacks with no remorse. Im just disappointed there wasnt anyone here who could co-op with me through this shit.

>>170211346
Is this Keeper? What chalice? Summon me, the online function exists to be used

>>170212338
>She just plows through me in the middle of my charged attacks with no remorse.
You fucking retard, why are just charging your attacks in front of her knowing that you can easily be oneshot? Why are you complaining that the enemy is not walking right into your charge attacks? You know you can't hyper armor through that shit, right?
Keeper's parry frames are consistent as fuck, how are you having trouble?

*Im just disappointed there wasn't anyone here who could carry me through this shit

>>170212473
Yes

>>170212638
Sit back and let me boot up and SRRC in m8, we'll have it done

>>170212665
To be fair, from my personal experience keeper just walks into my charged r2s

>>170212934

Alright, Im ringing

>>170212338
Parry windows for an attack never change.
Where the right point is can have a different feel for each enemy/attack, you just need to experiment until you find that.
Then you can do it consistently because it's the same every time.

If trading with charged attacks is not a viable strategy for an enemy just change tack.

Want to learn the fight? Go in there not to win but to experiment. Feel them out, test some things, see if something consistently works or doesn't work. Get an idea of thresholds and the enemy's reactions in certain circumstances. Then see if you can consistently bait out certain reactions, etc, and if you can use that.

You're not likely to learn much in a frustrated and frenzied state. Go in with a cool and analytical head.

Getting co-op'd through it will essentially mean you learned nothing.

Ah shit, tell me you got the keeper m8

Glad you got it, sorry about that, got a little paranoid about that fucking fire burst move, always catches me

>>170211346
Are you the same guy who went nuclear over Loran Darkbeast a couple of months ago?

Hey fellas, I'm going to stop by hemwick real quick to grab the rune thing if you want to drop by

>>170214457
Sure thing.

>>170214457
Oh shit I'm sorry I was sitting by the SRRC the whole time.

I always beat the Keeper of the Old Lords by smashing her repeatedly with tricked beast cutter's R2s (the second one will usually pancake her), and then knocking her down again just as she gets up with an auger of ebriatas hit, as I regenerate my stamina for another round of beast cutter R2s. I try and keep her on the ground for as much of the fight as possible.

Hitting her with the auger before getting in the rhythm of pancaking her with your weapon is really dangerous. If you don't knock her down because she has amy form of power armor (from an attack or a dodge), she will rush you and slash you to death in two fast hits and you will not be allowed to dodge away, I guess because you got hit during the auger's cooldown.

>>170215250
No worries, now we are going back to chalices anyways.

Are you coming Amy arm anon?

>>170216290
I'm sitting at the SRRC but nothing's happening.

What the hell? Is he gone forever? I really wanted his set.

Are you not joining anymore Drako?

>I've died at least 10 times in a row to Micolash on NG+2
Is there any way to make this shit easier? I wouldn't mind but it always fucking happens in the second phase and having to keep chasing him around and get him to half health before even getting another shot is pissing me off. I tried using a fire paper but it didn't do enough extra damage for me to be able to kill him quickly before he could tentacle me or do the other attack.
