oh yeah, i just got the moonlight blade up to +9, and drat it's awesome. the arcane stuff is great for dealing with hunters, and the general claymore nature of the weapon makes it really good for crowd control. the transform arcane > normal smash is loving baller too.

You should be able to stack powerful visceral attacks doing that

speaking of Kos seems to give huge health back if you visceral him with the health regain rune.

powerful viscerals + there are a lot of good skill weapons, especially in the dlc area

i think i'm going to do STR / ARC because i'm loving HMS so much... not sure how much i want to go into ARC though. it's like 18 right now, and i'm thinking of getting up to enough to use all of the tools. is it worth going higher to get scaling on them?

It's worth it just to make the R2 beams more badass, IMO. You're also gonna want to dip into skill a little bit if you want to use it to its full potential.

thanks. everything in this game is extremely badass. i've been fooling around with the iron fist offhand weapon, and it's fairly cool.

i took down logarius in a single attempt w/ half blood vials (unsuccessful co-op attempt beforehand to remember his moves), which made me feel pretty good

and then died during the micolash fight to one of his dwarf marrionettes going after the blood chunks, lol

Does nobody coop for Kos? I tried out of curiosity and couldn't find or be summoned by anyone for like an hour

if youre not getting hits for co-op or invasions, my friend and I found out that the game does stupid poo poo if you rest the ps4 and bloodborne is still open. when you turn your ps4 on again and bloodborne opens automatically from rest, you can be sure that you will not be getting any co-op. if you are not getting co-op and that isn't the case, you may be over/underleveled for the area, or need to turn off your password.

anyway that's my bloodborne co-op trpouble shooting guide. in God we Game

If you get summoned in the first layer of Lower Puthmerian then be careful not to accidentally kill the host with the arrow trap in the next room from the lamp, this has happened to me several times now

yeah, it's pretty annoying, even if it is really thematic (the frenzy mechanic really does make you feel like you're in an insane alternate dimension). after you're familiar with the place you can pretty easily do a run that unlocks the first shortcut and then pick apart the big setpieces at your leisure.

oh, yeah, you're right. i get the two names confused.

nightmare frontier is sort of cool, and has some neat secrets, but the boss is a little boring once you've beaten it once. the first time you meet a winter lantern is terrifying though. they're the hardest enemies in the base game, imo.

There's a video where someone zoomed in on the lanters and it turns out they are really really hosed up versions of the doll from the dream,vlike the fringes of her dress are replaced with flayed hanging flesh and stuff

i love amygdala. wish it had more hp tho ... same with the shadows. if the shadows did more dmg and had a bit more hp theyd be legendary like O+S

i always stop to throw a few pebbles at patches in the nightmare frontier haha. he even drops something if you kill him and can be bothered to go pick it up iirc. it doesnt end his sidequest either, i could be wrong though.
