If Cold Abyssal, Cold Abyssal +15, Elemental Abyssal +15; and Cold Abyssal, Elemental 27.2%, Elemental Abyssal +15 are the best two elemental gem setups, then how come Heavy Abyssal +15, Heavy Abyssal +15, Tempering Abyssal +15; or Heavy Abyssal +15, Tempering 27.2%, Tempering Abyssal +15 aren't the two best physical gem setups?

motherFUCK micolash, tell me why i had a worse time with him than any other boss in this fucking game. fucking mensis turbovirgin.

If the Belmonts could do it then so can we.

What's your favorite weapon /bbg/?
For me it's the Cane. Great moveset, feels satisfying to swing and it looks incredibly stylish.

the one you got with the stamina curse is much better, i'm kinda jelly

She's quite chunky. Should I be leveling my chunky lad here instead?

You don't have an adequate sense of direction. Work on navigating labyrinths.

Mine is the saw spear, there's just something about it that I really like.

>Great moveset, feels satisfying to swing and it looks incredibly stylish.

Cane is amazing. But so are so many other weapons in this game.
I love them all so much I don't know that I can answer, burial blade is beautiful though. I wish we had guidance 3 already.

First playthrough. Been trying to beat Amygdala for the last hour. At the brink of despair. What do.

>You don't have an adequate sense of direction.

You're right about that. Honestly, there's just something about him that makes me so angry and between that and my own personal retardation I wasn't having a good time.

It's that time again

At least its better than Demon's "LMAO 4CHARS" Souls but good lord.

Based off just my shitty names, who should I delete?

come back later, get out of here

Simon's Bowblade all the way. Sometimes I'm not in the mood to engage enemies head-on, sometimes I am and that weapon serves my needs.

>he hasn't found Guidance 3 already
lmoa

AWAY AWAY

YOU! ARE NOT WANTED 'ERE!

Glyph?

Boooooo

Save edit
It hasnt been found legit yet

I don't even think anyone here has a perfect abyssal to test against a perfect watcher phys gem.
No one ever posts them.

I know about that. But he said found, so I had to ask.

By the way, what do you need to make all that work?

>wants to know how to save edit

Fag

you need to buy PS4 Save Wizard, copy your save file to PC, decipher it with software, HeX edit exact values, secure and copy bact to PS4

I find funny that anyone would try to bully Maria, a woman so deadly her blood actually turns to fire.

Just passing curiosity. Thanks. I don't think I could force myself to go through all that for guidance 3 and some NOT NEEDED sets.

Executionerds can't compete.

Thank you for your feedback. It will hurt but I guess its time to let go (also Host is one of five Arc characters I have so if one has to go I'm glad its her).

Come again?

Am I chunky enough

What does this have to do with Bloodborne?
>Favourite theme
Living Failures. It sounds like something straight from...I don't know, but it still sounds great and is one of the more bombastic themes in the game in a somewhat literal sense.
>Favourite boss
Martyr Logarius. He provides a challenging experience for early game players (at least those who are brave enough to face him.) He has a pretty cool moveset too.
>Favourite area
Hunter's Nightmare. I like the idea of exploring the complete opposite of the Hunter's Dream and I wish it was expanded upon. Also, if anyone here has the sound clips for the lines the Old Hunters spout out, I would really appreciate it.

>Least favourite weapon
Rifle Spear. Every weapon in this game has its merits but this is just from me never finding a use for it for any of my builds.
>Least favourite theme
Mergo's Wet Nurse. It has an oddly sinister feel to it that not even the rest of the OST can live up to. I just don't like music box tunes, alright?

And no, I won't go through the effort to post my hunter.

You do you. You probably did it by the time I posted this anyway.

...

for me it's a tie between the hunter axe and the burial blade. There is not a single attack within the movesets of either of those weapons that I don't love. I even use the backstep attacks.

Also they both have great rally potential that allows you to aggressively clash with enemies

Which gloves look better on my plague doctor /bbg/?

This should make it one of your favorites then. Unsettling shit is the best.

surgical, fits the theme

I mean once you start getting into impossible to drop gems you might as well just stack 3 % effects on 5 sloted weapons and go for the inf hp

That gem is boring af

Left makes more sense since a doctor needs to keep his hands sanitary. The long sleeves are a detriment, particularly around fire.

you have no characters that are BL120-150? wow

You really should wear the charred cape. A wax-coated cape is a plague doctor staple.

Not really a waifu guy. Just never hurts to stop and appreciate a chunky lass.

BoM for anything but technicality, but the damage calcs for weapons like Letter, chikage, wheel and mlgs make them worse to play with. Even with BoM short reach, boring moveset, low spike damage and ugliness, I'd still rather use it compared to any split stat weapon.
>Least favorite theme
Same answer as before.
>Hardmode: post hunters

I've been playing with a level 56 twink and have max gems for all my weapons, and it is fun as hell. There seems to be so much more coop and pvp activity all-around at these levels. I'm never going back to level 98 or above.

The only problem is I only very-rarely find anything above depth 4 dungeons through the SRRC.

Nobody reads these anyway.

Who does these hoonter drawings? I'd like to ask them to draw mine.

Alright, alright. If had to be honest, it would probably be Rom's theme. It just doesn't strike any of my weakspots when it comes to music.

Is that really so odd? What is the benefit of leveling over 120 anyways, I feel like coop would die off.

I twink at level 50, invading upper ward, cainhurst and unseen all have good wait times

Invading or cooping in dlc is fastish too

He's taking a break from what I remember.

Why do Silverbeasts have such high defences if they have such low HP? It takes the same number of hits to kill them, so I don't know why they bothered giving them that.

Eyo

>>Least favorite theme
>The One Reborn
what the hell man, he's got one of the best songs in the game

Silverbeasts are just really funny in general. They are probably the least threatening enemy in the game on top of looking goofy as fuck.

They are really weak to fire.

I'm almost positive they're based on the description of the creature in HPL's The Beast in the Cave

I never really paid much attention to his theme, so I just put it down. I'll try and give it a listen next time.

I thought they were supposed to be Gugs.

The soft part before the vocals at the end is pretty gorgeous. Definitely not the best song in the game but its no slouch.

they are fucking ferocious in their 4-legged form, especially when you are a noob. I remember the one in the cave in nightmare frontier fucking me up over and over on my first playthrough.

If they spawned on 4-legs and had as much HP as a Upper Cathedral Ward scourge beast they would be really fucking dangerous

Whut, you don't think it's the best show ever?

No, I loved it when I was younger, I just didn't expect someone here to say they liked it. The soundtrack is really fucking good, too.

>Look, Patrick! The sky had a baby!

I think it's just one of those themes where I'm so focused on the fight that I just tune it out. I'll likely just listen to it on Youtube so I don't actually have to fight him.

Because most weapons have both Str/Skl scaling while Cold Abyssals only have one stat to scale with. Anything without Skl scaling already has high Strength scaling (except Parasite obviously). Tempering Abyssals are slightly better than 27.2% Temperings in terms of AR and most low modifier attacks, but most people would rather farm Watchers than BLB.

one hit away

I will not lie, I fucking adore Fukai Mori to this day.

What would be a fitting weapon to use on a gunslinger build? I'm going to be using Evelyn and Reiter, but I don't know what to use for my other slots.

Anyone up for the Hunter's Nightmare? pass is PURGE

Of course it's campy, flawed, generic and cheesy as hell. But every time I watch it it just makes me feel happy, can't ask for much more. Soundtrack is definitely top tier, credit themes especially.
