nth for PURGE.

First for threadly acceptance of ALL hunters. Embrace your true queen. Not saying you have to give her bloody semen, but bend the knee. She the queen.

4th for best build

...

...

I thought the wheel was dumb until I recently learned about the torture method of breaking upon the wheel. Pretty rad.

VILEBLOOD BROS WW@?

They're all dead.

We killed them.

You're next.

I'm gonna fight Maria, anybody wanna tag along?

i'll ring next to the lamp

YOU BETTER WAIT UP FOR ME BOYO

Anybody have any good Alfred sliders? Was thinking of doing my first wheel build.

Alright
Its NG+2 by the way
Im ringing as soon as i find out why it won't let me ring next to the lamp

Gotta trigger the fight first. Just go in there, give her a slap on the ass to wake her up, then mark out and you'll be able to ring.

Oh, just move a little forward or back, it's weird sometimes.

Alright, ringing

Nice job guys.
Wanna do Laurence next?

M A X I M U M B U L L Y

Let's go wreck his nasty ass

>NG+2 Laurence

Scary. Let's kick his ass.

Maria loves taking hunters' augurs from behind.

Best origin for a SKL build? And what should be my secondary skill? strength?

Soldier
Pump VIT and SKL, maybe a bit of END but not above 20
If you're going to use BoM, then maybe level a but of arcane for Augur

Usually Professional or Military Veteran. Occasionally Cruel Fate depending if you want to use hunter tools a lot. Honestly though, if you're not retarded, just cycle through the origins in the character planner and pick the one with the lowest level for the stats you want.

As for your secondary skill, should you choose to have one, you have many options. You can go BLT for better use of the Chikage, Rifle Spear, and Reiterpallasch. You can go STR to maximize damage for weapons like the Burial Blade. You can go ARC for hunter tools like the Old Hunter's Bone or Augur. Take your pick.

Is Bloodletter any good?
I want to try something else than the Whirling saw, but I'm afraid the scaling will be like Tonitrus.

How to keep motivation for the BLT grind?

...

Ah, almost got him
I'll ring again

The Bloodletter is a top-tier weapon, but it's just like the Chikage. If you don't have high BLT, the tricked form is useless for you.

The Bloodletter is really good. Its dash attack is godlike, it gets a good amount of armor on its moves, and it has the L2. Even the untricked Bloodletter is usable if you have high strength, whereas high skill Chikage is still largely worthless.

And remember, don't respond to tripfags.

Don't, give in to the misery

Ayy anybody here in dire need of some nourishing gems for that sweet split damage boost? Hit me up and join me in some righteous spelunking and savescumming shenanigans.

Thanks a lot Tobias and Gregor, we got him just fine.

Can anyone recommend a good vit-gouge build? As far as I can tell, there's nothing even close to the NR in this game.

Thank you for avenging me, friends

arcane wheel is arguably stronger than NR and needs no stat investment past base stats to use it so vitgouge like crazy, i remember someone posting his arcane wheel build with like 80 vitality

>Even the untricked Bloodletter is usable if you have high strength
That's an understatement. At 50/50 STR/BLT i was hitting for insane numbers in mace form, literally stronger than full chikage blood mode charge. People only using blood mode of that thing is missing out half of the fun.

I DID NOT KNOW THERE WERE RUNNING R2s

FUCK ME

it's moveset sucks though, it;s like a more limited Tonny

It has a pretty good poke actually. Plus it gives you a free hand for that hot minigun action.

I'm ringin my sinister at Hunter's Nightmare but there's literally no one. Is PvP ded?

level?

Which platform?

Level? Worldwide? No passwords on, no?

I've died to Ludwig 30 times now, 10 of them were in his 25% final wave of doom. What weapon lvl do people normally have at that time?

100
you farted
Ive been summoned by the same guy twice now at least

I have somehow removed the cape from the Yahar'gul garb

Dunno how, but through a cutscene, the Yahar'gul garb's cape vanished

I'm afraid to do anything in case it changes

Post pics

Here's the back and front without the cap.

Has this ever happened before?

Glad to see people finally accepting it.

>50/50 BT

Living Failures is such a terrible boss fight it's incredible

>1500 damage stake dinners

w-wew

What gems do I want for the Stake Driver?

Why is this?

I like it

>he doesn't have SL140 builds for comfy high level chalice exploration and fucking with invading SL100+

It's way too easy, but at least it is a visually interestingfight.

Lasts fifteen minutes and the things that an kill you are all infuriating

>lasts fifteen minutes
Why? Can you not parry? They're easy as fuck to just visceral to death.

Not every character has skill investment, or even the claw mark rune

2 abyssal heavy gems, 1 27.2%

Bolt paper, my friend.

>dropped by headless bloodletting beast

oh fuck

Guys are random 3v1 invasions and FCs still possible?
I abandoned the dream a couple of months ago and I regret it so much...

FCs still happen on Saturdays, our last one died rather early.

The fight club has a Discord if you're interested in that sort of thing. You can find it in the last thread.

3v1s are less common, but they still happen. It helps if you invade someone doing co-op here.

3v1s are always rare but they're still possible. I don't invade much anymore but I did fight a gank squad a few days ago in Mergo's Loft. I bet the DLC has some newbies summoning for Ludwig still so you can try there.

Today I realized Simon is black

Does anyone feel like running through all of Cainhurst with me? I'm a bit underlevelled.
Ringing in the main hall. Pass: bbg

Sure m8, be there in a tic

I'll join

Swell

That's one of two.

Aw shucks, i forgot i went into NG+, i don't have cainhurst summons yet, go on without me

Heavy abyssals still better than straight physical gems? running 50str/50arc want to play with some dex weapons.

Is it kind of dickish to use the milkweeds' kos parasites L2 even on four people?
Seriously that shit is pretty much an instant kill.

Was that fuckboi Logarius deflecting my Blacksky Eyes?

Dunno. But they certainly weren't having much effect. Up for another try?

You guys need assistance?

I really wanna continue into NG+, but my Chalice Dungeon progress will reset if I do, and I don't wanna spend all that time getting back to FRC dungeons. All the same, I'd like to do something other than Chalice Dungeons.

Why From ;-;

Absolutely, I'm ringing at the Cainhurst lamp

Chalice Dungeon progress doesn't reset. I'm pretty sure all your chalices stay exactly the same.

I'll be there in a second

I'm at the fog

The more the merrier.

Chalices don't reset, my man

Last time I went into NG+ I lost my ability to enter FRC glyphs.

Now all we need is a logarius wheel

Okay scratch that. Whirliblade.

Waiting on you, Dow.

I'm ringing at the lamp, just waiting for it to connect

Nah, come to the fog.

We are at the fog though.

Why didn't you BS him out of his anti-projectile aura?

Thanks a lot, fellas!

That was a fun fight, Kenny Loggins is usually a slog. Glad to help!

Anyone up for MP? Pass is kosm
