I know this wasn't your original avatar but I just love this game. Cheers, rediscover.

Really like the suspense all those line breaks added to the post. Couldn't help but wonder what you were going to say about the game

Even knowing where to jump I think I've died more falling down to the abandoned workshop than I have to any boss.

I hope that is the only falling 'puzzle' in the game, I've never liked those starting from that shortcut in the mines in DeS

theres a really easy way to do it. just fall off next to the rope near where you enter

I always forget to do it this way and then end up in a loop because my blood stain is on the lower level and I don't want to waste a Bold Hunter's Mark even though I know I'm going to die.

me too , theres no point having falls that kill you if theres no risk of ever falling off stuff. and 1 of the things i liked about ds2 was the huge descent from majula to like the center of the earth to fight the rotten. and the roof in anor londo - very memorable

Sometime around Christmas last year I defeated defiled watchdog (after an insane number of attempts, close to 100) and then defiled amygdala about two weeks later. I swore I would never touch the chalice chain again...

Is there a way to look up what type of chalice dungeon is by the code? I restarted NG++, having defeated Queen Yharnum earlier and got a bunch of codes but I don't meet the requirements for any of them. Really don't know what to do next, chalice dungeon-wise..

if you can make 1 FRC chalice, then you can make them all

it's a chalice that has every negative modifier. once you beat queenie you can make one, i think. you only have to make one of your own. once you do you can go to the root chalice and search for existing chalices with those modifiers, and can follow the guides that have chalice glyphs that give you specific cool end-game poo poo.

This isn't true anymore if you mean for just joking stuff, I had made a FRC ithyll after queen killing but couldn't join any FRC isz maps until I made one myself and there are still some codes I'm told I don't have the requirements for.

Unless you just mean if I have one FRC under my belt then I have the potential to make them all after that just gotta create them then ignore me

The ones you can't make are probably sinister chalices because who bothers

Yeah once you make a level 5 FRC of one type you can visit glyphs of any variation of that type but you have to do that for all 3 chalice types to unlock the entire system

I guess you could make a FRC hintertomb as well

I did Nightmare Frontier yesterday--probably a little early, at level 40 and not having made it to Byrgenwerth yet at the time

That zone sucked loving absolute rear end but I really enjoyed the Amygdala fight

Am I gonna get items to stop Frenzy later because I couldn't find a way to deal with those two assholes except kill them fast then burn two vials after the Frenzy went off

You actually start getting them at byrgenworth . I don't remember any sedatives earlier than that

Further proof that I did things out of order then :v: Still feels good how hard I crushed Amygdala, I dunno if he was supposed to be easy or what but nevertheless

My next choices are Byrgenwerth or finding out how to enter Cainhurst (I got the invite and a vague idea of where to go)

amygdala can be tricky, you should feel good about beating her. you might feel less good if you run into her later, though.

my gaming tendencies recently have fallen into a pattern

try a new game, get bored
play dark souls, stop somewhere in or right after anor londo
remember how good bloodborne is, beat bloodborne
rinse, repeat

I tried fighting ludwig with kos parasite and was feeling really good about it

But my patience ran out cause I knew I could just use the guidance rune and the scythe and beat him up and shove him into a F/R/C locker. :whitewater:

maybe youre at a lower level. this is strictly anecdotal but what level you are makes a huge difference to how hard bosses are. for example lvl 60 = challenging ludwig fight lvl 90 = fifty times easier

I'm 109 with +50% from gems in my +10 chikage. He's just super fast and he's one of the few bosses that will actually pivot mid combo if you sidestep him and I'm having a hard time adjusting

this is the shittiest part of chalice dungeons. you can find a guide online without much problem where someone has put in a glyph that has ritual blood X as the first chest in a side room that takes almost no effort to get to. i don't even consider that cheating, really.
