i have
1) Ultra Gem (idk how to get)
2) All Weapons (just need the one from the chalice dungeon)
3 & 4) endings
5) Hunter Special Items where is the one that chameleons you into a messenger... what the gently caress...
6) i guess one for doing all fixed chalice dungeons?
7) upgrade a weapon to +10 where the gently caress do i get a blood rock

Ultra gem just do chalice dungeons eventually you'll get to the point where every gem is high enough level to unlock it. Blood rock is in the nightmare of mensis if you take the second cage down you can jump out of it and into a window and get to a lever that will drop down the brain that makes you frenzied and you'll find the rock where it falls.

lost 4 insight to a cthulu-head rear end in a top hat. Was a bit mad then I realized more Insight makes the game harder so maybe he was trying to help me. Thanks squid-head

There's still a Heineken beer can and car parts in the trashpiles, they re-used the trash textures from Dark Souls, except now it's pretty obvious with all the higher texture settings.

Maybe Yarnham is a society that's been rebuilt after the apocalypse and this is just a subtle hint...

Anybody take advantage of those beast pellets? I've tried a couple times but I can never land enough hits on enemies to make the gauge go up very high.

do you have high Insight? The more you have the harder it is to go Beast Mode

Is there any benefit to high insight? I heard it just makes enemies have new attacks and you're more susceptible to frenzy.

Yeah that sets really cool, although my favorite is definitely the knight set at the moment.

if you're super interested in lore then high insight lets you understand what some of the bosses are saying when they howl. Someone confirmed it with Vicar Amelia, don't know what other bosses let you do this

Well thats really cool, I have like 50 insight at the moment, may as well see what more can do, I have like 30 Madman Skulls that I can use.

Thank you. Any game Taint Reaper enjoys is definitely not worth buying. Guess that's the only possible reason to own a PS4 off the table.

It is found in an optional area, the one where you get access to covenants.

fun fact: you don't have to fight cleric beast in ng+, you can buy the key since you already have the hunter badge it gives you

getting used to the damage all the bosses do in ng+ is hard... with 15 vit
since i'm making mad bank i just die until i get the dodge pattern down, which is usually something stupid and easy to keep going. example, for abhorrent beast boss in chalice dungeons (which is not scaled to ng level which owns kind of): walk up, dodge left, attack and immediately backstep. pattern repeats until fight is over.
