Bloodborne

[GAWD]

I haven't finished my game yet but I'm finding Co Op at the Dark Beast with guys playing NG+. The Darkbeast is dropping 70k echoes lol

Honestly solo isn't a problem, at least, the first two main levels....it - and this is just my personally take, not being a smartass - but it's all about how you play: leveling your character and strategy.

Note: i did not say combat, but really, how you tackle an area.

[jsteinhauer]

I assume you need two bells to summon two phantoms? I've played in some threesomes as a volunteer, but I can only ring my single bell once.

I don't know where to go now. With help, I beat Darkbeast Paarl. I don't know what to do about that woman in the subbasement of the gaol. I tried going to the left as you exit the Grand Cathedral, killed the two hunters of hunters and grabbed the loot, made my way to the next building and needless to say, got stopped at the door. I did not notice all of the bloodspots until it was too late.

You guys trying to grind levels, a good way to earn fast echoes is ringing your small bell to volunteer to co-op. You gain a lot of echoes in a short time, and you risk nothing. That was true in Souls, too. Ring the bell before a boss area, and you can also practice a few times, before taking it on yourself, too.

Also, are you all cashing in your items to get gems and blood echoes? Or are you hoarding them. I have not cashed anything in yet.

Only items I've sold have been attire that is weaker than what I am currently using and those blood dew things.

When my chest gets really full of bullets and blood vials I'll sell some of them off. I love how they instantly go in there when you're in the city and already have 20 in your current inventory.

Beat the Father last night, I think it was my 5th try. When he turns into that beast he's a real pain in the ass with his slashing combos.

You should be careful about selling outfits. Sometimes a weaker outfit statwise may have another purpose. I dont know what outfit as im trying to learn things on my own but i heard a certain outfit turns an enemy npc friendly

Nope! You can just stand around until more people show up. Took on Vicar with three people. Made it a cakewalk.

You guys all need to go to the forbidden woods next. Look up a guide how to get there cause it's crazy hidden and I couldn't even attempt to explain where to go.

[detective392]

I beat my 3rd boss.

[Show spoiler]The one in the church.

After that do I go to the

[Show spoiler]prison area?

I died and ended up there and discovered that

[Show spoiler] electric boss

or whatever the name is. Am I going in the right order?

Plus how do I spend insight? I have 14 insight but nothing to spend it on. I thought I could use it to buy armor and stuff.

Blood Dew gives you blood echoes man.

Well, good to know. It takes long enough to get one, though.

Got there, got to the end of one direction and opened the shortcut. See below.

There is a messenger fountain in Hunter's Dream just above the one you spend echoes at. It's only active, if you have ten or more insight. The middle door, if you are inside the house.

Yeah, I wouldn't sell anything, except stuff you are maxing out on.

So, this is about chapel vs. the clinic.

[Show spoiler]I sent the old lady, Arianna, the self-proclaimed wh()re and the old man across from Arianna to the chapel. There is also the bandaged guy from the end of Forbidden Woods. I should have sent him to Iosefka, I think, because I think he killed the old man. He was on the ground near dead bodies in Forbidden woods, but I reflexively sent him to the chapel without considering that first.

Does your blood splatter stay around even if you were to quit the game and come back later?

Ok I know there is a fountain, I did not know you could spend Insight. I have 21.

Anything good in there?

Yes. At least in my experience. There are a few come back later glitches though, so there may be some occasions where it disappears. I have enemies repspawn that shouldn't, sometimes.

The small resonant bell that lets you co-op in someone else's game and the bell that lets you invade a game. A few outfits. Some ritual material.

OMG my son sold the hunter clothes thinking he was buying them on accident!! I hope there's a way to find them againI. He's so grounded lol.

Can't you re-buy them in the store? I also believe you can find a set in the sewers.

[Terjyn]

Even when I think I've fully explored an area I keep finding more.

I just found the place with the rats in the sewers, when I thought I'd explored the whole thing top to bottom.

And the fact that you can see other areas you can get to other ways constantly is amazing.

The set I found in the sewers was not the same as the ones you could buy, they had a different name and a different fire/shock/arcane value. I don't know that it matters but it might.
