Yeah, the woods is a real good spot for invasions and even pvp. Central Yharnam can be great too if you have a low level or NG+ char.

Yeah, I left off picking up the brooch. Wandered around lost for a bit because I refused to look it up, lol. This was also over a year and a half ago, so I am excited to jump back in this weekend and pick up very early on where I left off.
The 'good luck' does not sound promising for my poor hunter, lol.
Same to the bolded!
I also offer a hand to newbies, though there'll probably be a much bigger flood come tuesday when the game is actually put up on PS+.
I got multiple builds to suit some needs! Arcane/Strength, Skill/Blood with Chikage, and just pure good ol Strength with a Whirligig.
If you get too lost, I'd say just eat it. It gives a pretty good early item and the sidequest doesn't reward you with anything substantial aside from a neat little story.
Oh man, that thread was legendary. Some people went through every stage of grief lol
I want to say more, but I don't wanna spoil it. But I think it's my favorite sidequest of the game
Oh I am determined. I am going to find her again!
A good point in the right direction:
Go to the multifloored building that has wolfmen and rats in it. There's the sewerish area outside it with gunmen and a really long ladder at the end, climb up it. That's the way to it.
Good idea! Can't believe this idea didn't come naturally lol. Thanks
Oh yes! That's right.
By the gate with the first Brick Troll. Now I remember. I could have sworn after you did that there was a 'shortcut' but I think that was just to the 3 floor place?
If you've been there once and opened the gate, you can go the way you would from the start of the game, past the pyre, past the area with the brick troll banging on the door, up the first flight of stairs, and off to the left before reaching the small courtyard with the dogs.
Edit: beat me to it!
That is exactly what turned me around. I only been there through the initial method, so when the gate unlocked it through me around after the Father fight. Got it down in my head now, eager to hop on this evening!
There's a shortcut there to the first lantern/3floor place yeah. it's a pretty long ways no matter where you come from though.
Be warned, the brooch sidequest have different endings depending of how you use the brooch
Nope, the first track, Gleric beast wasnt used on that tone either

i got pretty addicted to randomly generated chalice dungeons on my first character, but they're not fun to grind on every new character you make for pvp. it completely killed the longevity of the game for me

That trailer in hindsight is just.... so awful. Spoils SO MUCH more than the actual BB trailers did, especially showing
Ebrietas in a location she never was and with a colorless model
Yep that Cleric Beast theme seems like it's a "pilot" version (that was surely not orchestrated like the final version)
I've played this game about a dozen times, with different characters and builds.
I knew every pickup, shortcut and enemy location in most areas except for the endgame areas in Old Hunters.
It's been 2 years since I last played it, and I feel like I've forgotten most of it. I might be in for a new playthrough

So here's the "Alpha" rendition of the cleric beast theme and is far more ominous:
Edit: Here's the Laurence, the first vicar's rendition:
Yep its the same as the Project Beast teaser. Seems like its not live recorded so composers could do more stuff, it certainly sounds darker.
One of, if not the, greatest and most successful atmospheres in games.Here are a 3 snaps to show just how palpable this game's atmosphere is. Like dripping.
That is one of my 'big 3' reasons BB is one of the greatest of all time: Combat, level design, and atmosphere.
After many ringings of the bell for help with
Martyr Logarius I gave up on bloodborne. Could never beat that fuck, even with help. Any body want to help me get past with I'm open arms.
My GT is NowhereFaded.
Tips also welcome!

Stop by thr clan discord as well and those crazy fools will all help
I don't think I've ever beaten him by myself. Him, Ludwig, and the final DLC boss. If you need help, I can give you a hand! My password is Popcorn1
Theres a discord? Is it a Era exclusive one?
Platinum and 100%DLC over here.
Some really good advice in the OP that covers most bases. I would add that it also helps to find a weapon with a move set that you like and focus on the stats that scale with said weapon. A build that's not focused enough can slow down your pace mid to late game when your damage is not high enough with the tougher enemies even though your level is. That said a lot of fun can be had with experimenting with different builds.
I feel that Bloodborne is always trying to oppress the player and scare them with big bosses, loud screams and flashy moves. And everytime I got stuck I found that being brave (dashing forward), aggressive (rally system) and attacking harder (visceral attacks) helped a lot more than retreating and being defensive.
Other than that, take it slow! watch your corners and savour this very special game.

He's part of our Era Destiny clan, but we have channels for Soulsborne/Fortnite/Mon Hun, etc bevause we all play everything together, lol
I'm actually based in Frankfurt, Germany now (NA PSN account doe).
Yep, all of the designs and sounds and movements from enemies can be very imposing, but it is important to keep in mind that you are the hunter - a hoonter must hoont! Go in there and cut them down. You have all the skills and tools you need to do so. It is just a matter of execution. That will come through trial and error with some attentive observation.
I've played the game so much I pretty much memorized almost everything about it, lol. Anyone here needing help just holler at psn LaughingBanana :)
I still have my copy. Never got past the BSB. Gave up after 20+ attempts. I should probably get rid of the game.
I just parry/Vis'd BSB to oblivion.
I did get wrecked plenty of times prior to that though.
I go back and forth which one I would choose to be first, Impossible so I just appreciate I have them both.
Well, I shall add you to my PSN friend's list tomorrow and perhaps you can aid me in either chalice dungeons and/or boss fights in Old Hunters DLC (when and if you're available) if that's okay.
More than happy to. NG or NG+ beyond? I think my highest character may be NG++ but I'm not sure. I'm one of the few Souls players that doesn't really go beyond NG+ half the time.
edit: Chalices may be tricky unless you're just going the mandatory chalices for the Plat. I'll probably have those unlocked.
Beaten the game before - doing a clean run through + dlc hopefully this time. Any tips for a cane whip build? Or a weapon that scales w the same stats?
This game is so incredible. Bought a PS4 just to play it and it reignited my love for game after barely touching anything for like two years. I never finished Old Hunters, so a replay is in order soon.
Still on NG. Makes me wonder if you can still be summoned given your level. Guess we'll find out eventually. Thanks.
