I.N.R.I posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUacrPcCcKw I used to farm those dudes for Chunks. Easy as pie. This video reminded me of how beautiful the Chikage is. I'm so glad I said "gently caress the PvP meta level" and took my Skill/Bloodtinge dude to 150 so now he has 50 in each. He's on NG++ now and I've had enough chunks and rocks to +10 the Threaded Cane, Rakuyo, Burial Blade, a Lost Chikage, and the Blade of Mercy, so now I have a ton of fun weapons to play with. Gonna +10 the Saif and the Church Pick next. On NG+ I made the mistake of trying to fight Maria with the Chikage for maximum blood without taking into account that she probably has really high blood resistance  This time I'm gonna use the Burial Blade, Gehrman's proteges facing off

I just +10 the pick yesterday. Need some thrust gems that don't eat hp. Three 32% thrust is disgusting though

There's cool ideas with the covenants in BB but I never summon. Has anybody ever had it happen where they tried to summon help and the dude who came was in the opposing covenant so he turned hostile?

I use the Hunter of Hunters covenant rune when I'm just doing single-player for the little bit of extra Stamina regen and forgot to switch to the League rune when I was helping some people with Laurence. Showed up hostile to one dude and had a fun fight, though I felt a little bad killing someone who was looking for help.

Bloodborne PvP is fun and surprisingly still pretty active. I'm on NG++ with my level 150 guy and I got invaded within a minute of going to Mergo's Loft. I think I'm gonna leave Wet Nurse and the bell-ringing lady alive and do some dueling there for a while if the invasions keep up. There's also a push to revive the dueling Short Ritual Chalice dungeon that Reddit set up, if that sounds fun.

Is it like others where NG+ and all above are in the same pool? I have my chalice dungeon guy who is stupidly high level already and might get him to 150 to do some PVP

I have my chalice dungeon guy who is stupidly high level already and might get him to 150 to do some PVP I don't think NGs are separated at all, like in DS3. It's just level-based, no NG separations. I think 140 might be the sweet spot for both invading and being invaded. At that level you can invade down to 120 (119 technically) and be invaded by people as low as 92. If you go to 150 you can be invaded by anyone between 100-175 but you can't invade SL 120 people yourself, so you're probably going to get fewer hits as an invader. You'll still get invaded plenty, though. I kinda regret going all the way to 150 on this character for that reason, but at least I got 50 in both Skill and Bloodtinge out of it. And even if I have a smaller pool of people I can invade, I can get invaded by any of the PvP levels so it's still good. There's a level range calculator here: https://mpql.net/tools/bloodborne/?level=140 Harrow fucked around with this message at 17:13 on May 12, 2016 |

Has anyone here done a BL4 run? I've never done a minimum-level run in a Souls game and since I find Bloodborne the most fun to play I'm tempted. I fear Shadows of Yharnam will own me hard though, and Rom. I'm really good at both of those bosses when I have HP (and visceral damage, for Shadows) so doing them without either should be interesting

Low SL in Bloodborne seems really really loving hard, way harder than other games because there's no level-free scaling options like pyromancy to rely on and your defense is heavily tied to your soul level. No reason you couldn't at least try it though

No reason you couldn't at least try it though Yeah, it's basically Saw Cleaver + paper + Beast Blood Pellets and then pray you can dodge well. Should be interesting. SL1 in Demon's Souls and DS1 are probably the most "doable" of them all, at least from the perspective of not having tried myself. Demon's Souls because you're a Royal (bonus points in the endgame/NG+, because you can rock poo poo with the Northern Regalia in hypermode even if you don't meet the reqs) and DS1 because of pyromancy.

Also the Lava Bow in Demon's makes it really doable. With hypermode it does great damage even though you can't meet the reqs at SL1. Demon's Souls SL1 is basically about being the glassiest glass cannon. Get yourself in hypermode and Soul Ray/Lava Bow/Northern Regalia everything to death. Emarrel did a really fun SL1 NG+7 run on YouTube if you want to see how it's done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qs4jtMrCPV4

Ludwig is a nightmare. I'm still stuck on Maria but I haven't tried to make progress in it for a while. I ran out of beast blood pellets trying to beat Ludwig, so I would definitely recommend saving them for when you really need them.

I was gonna ask how you could run out of pellets since you can buy them once you get the Cosmic Eye Watcher Badge, but then I remembered they cost Insight, not echoes. Yeah, definitely got to save them for when they're necessary.

BB multiplayer with a friend is great. esp when you don't know if it's gonna become pvp due to blood drunkeness btw does anyone know if it's possible to summon someone who has a password even if the summoner doesn't have a password? I was trying to get summoned by a friend in lower loran 2 and we set a password, but I got summoned by some other guy. he ended up creaming me in pvp lol either passwords aren't exclusive or that was the biggest coincidence ever

I like the speedrunner trick of using a transformed Hunter Axe L2 to open the Shadows of Yharnam fight to take a nice big chunk of HP off all three at once. sector_corrector posted:it's a fantastic weapon. i was disappointed it didn't get an interpretation in DS3... yet I really wanted something like the Threaded Cane in DS3. It's still the only whip in the series that I actually like using. DS3's whips are improved from DS1/2's, but not Threaded Cane-level fun.
