I think some of the fastest blood echo farming you can do is blasting through the shadows and pigs in Mergos Loft with some Moon runes equipped. dont forget to make the pigs fight the other guys

Thanks, this is way more efficient if only because you actually get a decent amount of echoes.

I beat the second boss and after I saw what was next I knew my friends would want to see.

Happy to hear my suggestion helped!

I know what you mean about the stuff after the second boss, it's so cool! Every time I think I have seen the coolest thing the DLC has to offer, it tops itself! I don't think there's been a single boring or disappointing moment in the whole DLC so far!

Does going to ng+ reset your chalice dungeons? I only ask because I don't think I want to do all of them before I fight the final boss.

i think playing fallout 4 sapped some sort of vital gamer essence, because i loving suck at this game now. like 10 tries so far on the first DLC boss. shameful.

the first boss is really hard, I died to him a bunch. the dlc is just hard in general even some of the random mooks runnin around can be really tough. only part that was relatively easy I thought was the second boss fight but it was still challenging, just not as hard as the rest

oh, cool, i didn't know that. also he shows up as an NPC phantom when you're in other people's worlds, so it made me wary of killing him

I kept looking at him with the monocular, he's too cute to kill. The lady staring at him though I killed every time after what she did the first time I went towards the boss area.

I love looking at everything in this game so I am glad that healing is its own button and I can always have the monocular equipped. it is very ftw

i didn't realize about the vial guy, and burned through like 80 of my stored vials (a lot of those were co-op attempts though). luckily the first run through the DLC isn't too hard and everything drops a shitload of echoes, so i'm pretty sure i can build up a lot more quickly. i was really hoping the preDLC patch would fix vial management. it still does that thing where you don't refresh vials after dying in co-op.

The Boom Hammer is so freaking badass, as is the Whirligig Saw. I'm definitely going to do some suicide runs to grab them in later playthroughs.

I've been using the rakuyo, it's a lot like the blades of mercy just a little slower and stronger but it has cool spinny moves

Jumping attack and fully charged R2 with the Boom Hammer creates a huge explosion. It's so cool.

i've found it, but my guy is dex heavy, and it has similar requirements to the cannon, so i can't use it

It's in a cave near the blood river full of tick monsters along with another sweet weapon. seems like it would be really strong if you upgrade it.

Third boss is incredible and took me almost all night to beat, and the third area is really cool and disturbing. The boss there is kicking my rear end so I'll have to try again tomorrow.
