Annalise is the head of the bourgeoisie, keeping the working class under her thumb by way of private security enforcers. Through the joining of a close-knit group of workers, a League if you will, an cooperation with local and foreign law enforcement elements sympathetic to the cause, namely constables, the yoke may be thrown off that the means of production may be seized from the wealthy elite and returned to the hands of the common hunter.
BB is actually Marxist propaganda, this is my new joke theory.

>>174867821
Bloodtinge has dickall for variety and the Chikage has possibly the least variety of any of the bloodtinge weapons, seeing as its only good moves are the unzips. Bowblade might be boring, but at least it has a usable untricked mode. Bloodletter is crazy good though, so if you build for bloodtinge I'd advise using it.

Skill has Saif, Reiter, Church Pick, Burial Blade and a variety of other weapons of varying levels of fun, including the Saw Spear, Rakuyo and Blade of Mercy. It also has the easiest gem farm of any build, since you only need 27% gems from Watchers unless you want to get thrust adepts for Church Pick. Don't have to bother with offshapes, abyssals, secondaries, nothing. Just visceral a bunch of fatties until you're rolling in gems.

I'd advise you go for skill and splash enough bloodtinge to use the Reiter, because that thing is phenomenal, especially in conjunction with a longer reaching weapon like Church Pick or Burial Blade to compensate for its shorter range.

Just don't be a Vileblood, that's all any of us will ask of you.

>>174868119
You forgot to mention that all the best weapons in the game are SKL based, and when used well will dominate every other weapon in the game. So if you want 90% winrates against anyone not using the same build as you, SKL is the way to go.

>>174867502

>>174868404
Between the Saif, the Saw Spear, the Reiter and viscerals yeah, skill really does have the best shit. Bloodletter is very good as well, and you could make an argument for Kos Parasite, but it's pretty ridiculous how pushed skill is.

>>174868119
Are you fucking retarded? The Chikage has not only immense aesthetic and mystic beauty, but also outdamages almost every weapon in the game in a single, devastatingly fast strike, as frightening as it is elegant.
This is only due to the wondrous properties of bloodtinge, a man with fifty bloodtinge has enormous presence and powerful swordsman's aura and is capable of slaying any beast or hunter in that single, portentous stroke following the sheathing of the blade, and when his prey attempts to flee they will receive only the most inglorious and craven of deaths from the barrel of his monstrously destructive, yet beautiful Evelynn.
Don't disparage the chikage in such a repulsive fashion in my presence ever again, or I'll deliver swift and thunderous justice from the blade of my katana.

I actually love Yarhargul and the way the Yarhargul hunters look.
I think the issue is that it's hard to determine how to properly make one.
The church and choir have a lot of dedicated lore and weapons, powder kegs have awesome techno gadgets, executioners have the wheel and the glove and shit, but unfortunately Yarhargul hunters aren't mentioned much in the lore, and the weapons they seem to wield are pretty random and don't follow a concise pattern, which indicates they most likely pilfered them from other hunters. Which is neat and all, but makes it hard to determine how to go about making one that really screams 'unseen village faction rep'.

>>174867443
Scholars, madmen, memes.

So the Cleric Beast descends from the Cathedral Ward if you approach the closed gate on the main bridge.

But since it is optional, you can just ignore the bridge, go straight to Gascione and enter the Ward via the sewer below the Oedon Chapel. Yet, if you go to the plaza directly above the bridge where the ball and chain giant is, the beast will not turn up.

I'd explain it lorewise with the beast having been the original gate keeper. So its faint remaining sense of duty still causes it to throw a fit if someone is approaching the gate, but it does not care if you are already in the Ward.

I'd also have liked it if you could see where the gate is leading. It goes below the Ward, so there must be some sort of main building where citizens could enter the Ward proper.

They kept their lid shut about "Project Beast" for quite a while, and no one believed they would produce a console exclusive.

SKL definitely seems more fun. 50 SKL 25 ARC ?

>>174869207
>It goes below the Ward, so there must be some sort of main building where citizens could enter the Ward proper.

There is. If you go from the Oedon chapel lamp to the area with the Ball and Chain giant, there's a path to a room with tons of urns. There's a locked door there, and on the other side of that door is the Cleric Beast arena. That door is permanently locked which drives me nuts.

>>174869348
Yeah
But I don't think they can work on 4 games at once. (They hinted at 3 games that they are working on, and it doesn't sound like any of them can be Bloodborne 2)

>>174869398
I am aware of that door, and it makes sense for those who want to go above the gate straight away. But where does the big gate lead to? Having such a tiny door as the main entrance to an entire district of such a big city is odd.

Then again, I don't think Yharnam is the type of town to spend much on its planning department. Probably paid them in blood.

Hi, I just got the game on ps4 pro and i have two...questions

Is it normal that i get kinda shitty graphics and fps? Expecially in some battles i get huge fps drops. Graphics are kind of...muddy, blurry, or is it just because it's a game made too early into console life?

Is it normal that there is shitload of paths and diffirent routes i find that lead me in seemingly diffirent parts of the town and im not sure which way to go or i just have topographical cretinism? I thought that birdge boss from demo is the first boss i should fight but i somehow ended up with Gehrman first (or who's the hunter boss at the cemetary).

The kind of devotion you get when you know for sure that Gods are fucking real.

>>174870235
>so I justify it in my head that everything was built super fast, feverishly but with enough devotion for beautiful details

Yeah. Like with the entrance to Old Yharnam where they put a chapel on top of the side of another chapel and sealed the stairs down with a tomb that has to be moved by a mechanism.

It's no wonder that other countries and towns consider Yharnamites to be nutty. Travel reports must be full of the respective author's astonishment and mockery.

Skill builds have it fairly easy compared to other builds but that shouldn't stop you from trying other stuff out. Almost everything in the game is viable so just go with whatever you have the most fun with.

>>174871758
Yes, lowercase and set to worldwide. I have name too

Skill also increasing visceral damage seems overkill to me. Does strength have other bonuses besides more damage?

>>174869254
Only if he's got a really feminine penis.

>>174871871
More variety due to Heavies. You could use almost every Skill weapon with little AR loss on a 50/25 Str/Skl build using those gems.

>>174871871
Oneshotting all sorts of things with charged r2s, along with abyssals giving high ar on weapons and being able to convert almost any weapon to have high strength scaling.

>>174871954
Skill is really good for PvP, for PvE it's about equal to other builds if you don't heavily rely on viscerals. Weapons are really what makes the most difference, seeing as any build that isn't Blt can use Saws effectively it's about equal.

Get fucking annihilated, Ludwig

>you got the game on PS4pro
The Pro doesn't do anything for Bloodborne's performance.

>Graphics are kind of...muddy, blurry, or is it just because it's a game made too early into console life?
No, it's because Fromsoft's coders are incompetent as fuck. They've had trouble making their games have decent performance since their first Soulsborne game, Demon's Souls back in 2009. They got a lot of money and support from Sony for Bloodborne but still couldn't make it not chug in graphics-intensive moments.

>I thought that birdge boss from demo is the first boss i should fight but i somehow ended up with Gehrman first (or who's the hunter boss at the cemetary).

You mean Father Gascoigne. Gehrman is the friendly guy who gave you advice in Hunter's Dream. And don't worry, I fought Gascoigne as my first boss as well.

>Is it normal that there is shitload of paths and diffirent routes i find that lead me in seemingly diffirent parts of the town and im not sure which way to go or i just have topographical cretinism?

Central Yharnam is pretty expansive,maze-like and there are a lot of optional areas so I think it's more that the game has a lot of different paths within areas.

>>174872698
And I felt that way for just about everything I tried replacing my saws with.

>>174872596
That's kind of a problem with BB but I honestly never let that put me off from using stuff that I enjoy. In PvP pretty much anything can kill you in 5 hits or less, and PvE is fairly easy with whatever you're using if you have a decent setup.

>>174872980

>>174873068
Saws, Saif and Rakuyo are pretty top tier in PvP.

>>174873224
Given equal player skill the guy using the meta stuff will still win 8/10 times.

>>174873224
Saws too even in PvP? Man I don't get how people are still playing this game after so long. Don't you get bored of that?

>>174873346
Probably, but winning ain't everything.

>>174873398
Eh not really, I actually enjoy using almost everything including Saws but it's always nice switching to other stuff occasionally.

>>174873570
Losing isn't fun. At least not when you lose not because the other guy was better than you, but because his weapon was better than yours.

>>174873692
Then get better, or use whatever you think will net you more wins against them if you really care about winning.

I wouldn't know personally. I only ever do STR builds in DaS2. I would recommend either looking stuff up online or chancing your luck with /dsg/. I know they don't take to kindly to DaS2, but you're better off asking there seeing as it'd be on topic whereas asking about DaS2 stuff in /bbg/ is somewhat off topic.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy your pure INT playthrough when you get around to it!

>>174875228
You can get the first guidance rune multiple times, because the crow drops it on every new game cycle, which is clearly a bug that prevents the third one to spawn in a coffin in dungeons, resulting in a great one wisdom to appear instead. It's lost, no one is ever going to find that damn rune and believe me, I tried.

I want to make a Holy Moonlight Sword + Logarius Wheel STR+ARC Church Hunter build, what stats/gems should I go for (and where)? Also, what's the max level for PvPing here? I'd like to try my chance at the fight clubs.

>>174876790
Can't say anything for gems but your stat spread should be 40/16/25/12/5/50, Cruel Fate as your origin. The 12 SKL is so you can use the HMS and wheel, and you can feel free to pull 5 points from END and move them into VIT, though I personally wouldn't.

>>174876790
Max level is 120, but most players stick around 98 or 117 for whatever reason. Something about avoiding the reddit 150 meta or still being able to use powerful hybrid builds, or something.

>>174876959
Damn, I have 20 END, 30 STR, 15 SKL and 10 BLT because I'm a raging autist who can't have anything but multipliers of 5 as stats and level. Is it irredeemable, or can I put on a more STR focus and still do it? Also, is that spread for lvl 98? I fear I wouldn't be able to play then (again, multipliers of 5). I usually went for 120 in PvP in my other characters.

FUCKING FUCK I HATE DEFILED HOTDOG

>>174877152
damn I got greedy as hell there

>>174876790
CF: 40+/12+/25/12+/5/50, if you feel like going higher you could dump points into Vit up to 50, End up to 20 and/or Skl up to 25. Nourishings for both, either Normal HMS and Uncanny Wheel or Lost for both depending on who you're gonna farm. Lost is probably the best, you'll have to farm FRC Amy and wait till FRC to get those gems.

FCs are 80-120 but most people here stop at 98-117. As long as you're within FC range you should be fine.

>>174877143
I have wonderful news for you. At 40/20/30/15/10/50 you'll be at level 115, within /bbg/'s accepted level range of 98-117. Now go level up and have fun being a swole space wizard.

Clock, Clock, Anti-Clock is the standard for any build.

>>174877352
Excellent! As much as I'd prefer 120 because I like even numbers more than odd, 115 will have to do.

>>174877435
Clockwise and anti-clockwise are always popular choices, besides that clawmark is a decent option, formless odeon if you use guns or tools a lot, if you're a str build (little visceral damage) and don't really use too many bullets you could always just slap on a low tier clockwise for even more health

>>174877312
'Salright. Got him. I might go get some twin shards and upgrade my cannon before fighting Amy

>>174877435
I use stam +15, guidance and clawmark +20. those are the ones I always use though, maybe switch out guidance for lake for more defense but I usually don't switch my runes out for PvP

>>174877274
Shit sorry i suck so much. Did you get him?

>>174877435
I like to have clockwise+blood rapture+anti-clockwise for that perfect symmetrical goodness, although for PvP clawmark in the middle would make more sense.

>>174878147
I'm unsure as to how the level ranges in BB work. I believe people stay at 98-117 to avoid Reddit for obvious reasons. There probably are some people here at 120, but I imagine most people prefer to stick to the 98-117 range. I'd stay under 120 just to be safe, because being out of the level range will downscale you and the math on that gets a little wonky.

>>174877851
Lowest I do is level 25

98 was to avoid Reddit 150s, 117 doesn't but it can still invade 98s which 120 can't. 98 can still invade 120s though. There's a calculator in the OP you could check out for level range stuff.

Based on what? Because most of their designs that people praise, are generally based on real life cultures, mythology or based on Lovecraft / Giger shit. While I really like the design style and aesthetic that Fromsoft games have, I think they're the type that takes something that's already "ready" and gives a neat, kinda twisted spin on it.

I don't really see Fromsoft as people who are particularly good at coming up with new stuff.

And generally speaking completely non-human alien shit is just.... I don't know what makes you think it'd result in anything interesting. If you have no equivalent in human culture to relate to, there's no real reason for people to care about it because they don't understand, and if you're just using human societies as a base, you're just skinning a human culture with alien paint.

And gameplay wise, having alien architecture mixed with Souls gameplay style is not going to work at all because the reason the level design and communicating danger zones / traps work is because people are able to recognize things from "real" contexts or ones they're familiar with from media, whereas with a completely alien context players would have to take a long time to visually recognize visual cues to danger zones / shortcuts and so on.

>>174880919
I think this would be far too reliant on guns, and From seems to prefer melee over ranged combat. They could try implementing firearms to a greater degree, but it would take an overhaul of their current system.
I still believe that a pirate-related From game has potential. They could easily include all their old themes and mechanics in a setting that allows for BB-style combat.

But anon, guns were pretty scarcely used with flintlocks were around and BB is still mostly melee, they'd figure something out.
Hell, they even have gatling guns in BB, by the time those exist pretty much no one used a sword anymore in real life outside of officers flaunting their status.

>>174881081
>load Froms new game
>item description calls swords useless ala wooden shield

>>174881286
That's fair enough. They could probably find some way to implement melee extensively, no matter what environment the game has.
>>174881373
But the Wooden Shield wasn't useless, it blocked bullets like a champ. It could take R1 spamming from the BoM without too much trouble.

>>174867397
I genuinely loled at this.

>>174881636
They could set the game in the distant future and find some reason to use melee, or in a post-apocalypse, or even the 1920's

All you need is a little bit of imagination, it's a fictional world after all.

>>174881981

Do you guys realize how much lore you don't understand because you're only using information in the game for your interpretations?

>Set it far enough after the war that most the firearms have already been scavenged or rusted beyond use and people have begun creating crude melee weapons since no one has found the tooling required to make guns again
It could work but I feel like it really wouldn't be fromsofts thing, Japan really doesn't seem too big on the post apocalyptic genre and lore would be harder to get away with.

Now if you set it really far after the war, to the point where the old cities of man are basically completely forgotten and humans have regressed into tribal societies living in villages in the woods, only the bravest going to search in the ancient cities of man because of the dangers and horrid beasts that lurk within, I could see it working more for from, especially if they're subtle about it and only make it absolutely clear that this is a post apocalyptic world until late game, kind how they hid and only hinted at the whole Lovecraft theme in Bloodborne until after Rom.

12 with Anti-Clock 3 has been fine for me, most would probably recommend 15-20 for it though. 50/25 Str/Skl for those weapons. You could also go 25/50 Str/Arc and convert them while using Nourishings on the Boomhammer. If you plan on using Claw though I wouldn't go the Str/Arc route since the beasthood bonus won't do anything once you convert it, 50/25 Str/Skl would be better for it.

Not trying to start a consolewar shitshow, this is a legit question.

Why does coop suck so hard in bb? Every time you try to help someone with a boss he constantly freezes and animation cancels and the FPS drops can get absurd on some bosses.

I don't know if you're being a faglord or exaggerating because Internet speak or not, but are you seriously having constant problems? If so, there could be a number of issues: clean out your PS4s fan, heat builds up real fast in the thing and the fan can just suck shit right in to make it worse; you or your co-op partner have shit Internet, most people around here will attest to the horror of Brazilian Pinglords who teleport around the place like an anime; From servers being fucking weird or, of course, genuine graphical problems which do occur because the game's so fucking full of ridiculous particle effects it's like they didn't care.

I myself have never experienced a tenth of the 'constant' problems many people seem to experience, certainly nothing to ever make me question if something was up. I get weird shit from time to time, like teleporting players and freezing bosses, but those are outliers in my general experience.

Arrogant as fuck. They clearly didn't even play their own game telling by the state those last 3 characters were in, the ones they had locked in the betas.

Meh, to be fair there's little reason to unlock everything in the game considering most ornaments look like shit.
The real problem is they don't fucking know what to re-balance, just about everyone agrees that Peace Keeper is absolutely fucking broken yet they won't even touch her.

Also, nobushi is best waifu

>>174887430
I feel you've probably had some pretty bad luck with co-op combined with From's servers not always being the best, a legitimate complaint. I've had some shit tier connections myself and after a while it's frustrating as hell.

>>174888625
Yes, but you do a lot of damage with your fists thus making unarmed viable.

>>174888625
It sort of works without the Rune. It'll have the fist moveset but since you're technically holding a weapon you can still use gems which will add damage. With the low base damage and modifiers, you'll want Flat damage.

Ubisoft's staffed by idiots, but there is a good game under the balance issues. If anything, being able to spam the Conqueror's UWAHUWAHUWAH pelvic thrust emote will keep me coming back.

What is the biggest influence then?? Enlighten us.

What advantages do other weapons have over the saws and saif other than fun and novelty?

I've listened to Ebrietas' theme so many times and the last minute still gives me chills man

>>174892470
Reach/speed/damage per hit, depending on the weapon.

The bottomless sea is the cosmos. He's just returned to a higher plane and is no longer bound to the nightmare.

>>174892703
What about in PvP? Kinda feels like it's impossible to hit people with other stuff.

>>174892470
>>174892810
Tonitrus fucks kin, whirligig destroys beasts, bloodletter/Chikage have retarded damage in pvp, bow blade is very versatile in pvp, arcane builds have good damage and a lot of versatility, and church weapons get modifiers against certain enemies

when is the best time to start the dlc?

Some also have hyperarmour, although the amount of frames is not as generous as in DaS3.

>>174893568
Recommended BL is around 65. I recommend at least having at +8 weapon. Around after Rom would be a good time to go into it

Did I fuck up upgrading the HMS to +10 for a STR+ARC build when there are Uncanny-Lost versions? Or is it workable?

>>174893764
Can they win consistently though?

>>174894016
It's workable. But Chunks and Rocks are actually rather easy to get if you do a lot of dungeons (chunks from bosses and rocks from insight), so you can switch to a Lost/Uncanny version later.

>>174894126
i use kirk/pick/cuttah and win about twice as many as i lose

>>174887734
You unshackle the Orphan from the Hunter's Nightmare and allow it to go and join the rest of its brethren in the ocean, which is probably a euphemism for the cosmos/universe.

>>174894265
I went on a Chalice binge about a week ago with a PvE character and I'm heavily burnt out about them.

>>174893928
>>174893763
thanks. i normally started the dlc after micolash because the i get access to good blood gems but im glad i can do it a bit earlier

Explain how the Chalice Dungeons work. I've completed two so far which is a joke at level 120, but why can I not start the third one? Says I'm missing ritual blood.

>>174895545
it means you do not have the reqired ritual blood to make the next chalice. read the op

>>174895545
you need to farm ritual blood in the respective tier, once you've done the chalices you'll be able to buy them from the messengers. look in the OP for farming locations. don't let the early difficulty get in your head, it gets harder the more you progress until you end up ripping all of your hair out.

What's wrong with it? I'm in NG+ at Rom and never once grinded. Didn't even do all optional bosses in NG.

>>174896302
Step back a minute and ask yourself if you really need to be at BL 120 to survive the game.

>>174896371
did that plastic sword just cut through a pumpkin

>>174896667
I reached 50 for skills and strength, so why shouldn't i level bloodtinge and arcane now? I don't get it

someone pls help me with the dlc. ringing at the bloodsuckers.

>>174897364
On my way dude but Imma get cucked by Seglat dun care tho

>>174897217
If you have absolutely no intention of doing PvP of any sort, go ahead. If you have any intention otherwise, our maximum is 117, absolute highest. But do you really need all those levels? Wanting to choose from a large pool of weapons is understandable, but it gets to the point where it's just excessive.

>>174897364
just run past them

>>174897364
Wait m8 I need a password

>>174897495
I don't care for online play. I just want to finish it again on NG+ killing all the bosses and doing all the sidequests and then I want to do the DLC

>>174897754
Then go for it. When do you plan to stop leveling?

>>174897750
bbg

>>174897862
Well when I finish the DLC

>>174897862
Not him, but I've been playing these games since Demon's and I still don't understand this mentality that people have to stop leveling up at some point. The game gets progressively harder on each NG+, there's literally no reason not to continue leveling unless you're making a PVP character or doing challenge runs. I don't understand why people just assume every character someone makes is going to be one of those two things.

ohh, majestic

>>174897750
never thought i'd even run out of vials baka

Ayyo Luna wanna go again? I won't try any fancy charged R2s this time

>>174898089
It's mostly assume the character is for PvP because that's a good deal of focus here, between the spelunking and FC. Otherwise, I'd imagine it's for the sake of not getting too terribly downscaled. I never stopped leveling with my first hunter, but set a limit after I started making ones geared toward the FC.

>>174898428
yes pls ;_;

>>174898557
bloodborne has no pvp

>>174898630
Ringing at the lamp, friend, or should I go outside?
