parrying was a lot easier for me when I realized I had to shoot them during the damage frames of their attack and not during the wind-up

wierd after the 2.50 update i can use it like pause, and it loads up faster than booting the game like normal too

It works for me but when I load in it often hasn't connected to the Internet just yet so bloodborne gives me a "you have been disconnected" and boots me to the title screen

Question for those who are further than me: does the second tombstone only have the witches fight? I can't find another path in that area and it seems crazy short

yes
but it also has a secret area that you can only activate doing a different secret area thing
and it's loving epic :)

i mean if you try to parry it like normal monsters its not gonna work and it sounds like he was mostly doing that. cleric beast can be nasty if you have one of the less good weapons for it, i struggled with the cane before i found the saw-spear and beat it in like one more try

I thought you could parry the Cleric Beast if you shoot it in the head during certain attacks, just don't remember which ones. You can do the same to Amygdala when he opens up his head sphincters to shoot poison at you and then visceral attack him.

Yeah, it doesn't seem to work for me either.

Anyway I accidentally hit the L2 button when I put my controller down and shot and killed the old man in the wheelchair in the dream house, I turned of my ps4 and reverted it but part of me wonder what would've happened if I didn't.

yeah, its just that you dont always have a clear shot at his head so if you just try to do it after any old attack youre gonna get clobbered

Blood Starved Beast was easy but I still died like seven times to him just because his one attack where he would catch me and eat me, killing me instantly.

I always had like one or two attacks left on him too.

Once you can't parry him anymore I just kept dodging to the left and following up with a two handed jump attack on the hunters axe. If you hit him from behind it staggers him for a second.

you can also throw a blood jar or whatever and he'll go after it, then it's easy to backstab him

wait you can parry the Blood Starved Beast? I just kinda stayed behind it and slashed it until it died.

Also checking out the Healing Church Workshop, there's something making a bunch of noise at the bottom but I cant see it and I'm not sure if I can survive the fall to the bottom.
