i fought chalice rom way early on my blind playthrough (before getting to him in the story) and he pissed me off

I don't think I could lose to ludwig on a proper character after fighting him so many times at sl4, but he is a surprising guy.

is there a trick to the chain version of undead giant? it's my least favorite boss in the game, and i just want to get past it.

hit him twice and back off. thats it, cos he'll always spin. maybe u can catch him in the middle of an attack and get some more hits in, but thats up to you.

Rather than automatically receiving a copy of Bloodborne—which would be far too easy—donors must give blood and then roll a die to see if they've won a copy of the new game or another PS4 game.

Nah, if you want to play again they take more blood on the same day, hope you don't go mad or turn into a beast before you get your hands on a copy.

they're sort of rare, but they make you hit a lot harder, and increase damage the longer your hit streak

They cost 1 insight in the store, so they're as rare as insight is.

i love fighting micolash. i feel like it's bed of chaos done right.

i also figured out good ways to bait him into running the right way, which i think helps make the fight less tedious.

He just runs to the right spot now but it's really hard to pull off now that messing up just a bit means death and then chasing him around again. I went to go kill Iosefka and she's freaking out on an examining table what does this mean

It means you missed the chance to get her rune but you can get something else if you kill her. If you want the rune you have to kill her before rom iirc.

For micolash my biggest tip would be to stay close and do not run out of stamina. Just hit him 2 or 3 times, then circle around until your stamina is full and repeat.

in the second chamber? never seen that if so, that sucks. there are 2 mannequins in chamber 1 that you should take care of before you fight him if not.
