Impromptu isz in, join all.

Alright, boy-o's, describe a boss with another video game

>Rom, the Vacuous Spider

grab him by the spider cloaca

Does wearing eye runes give me any sort of advantage when farming for gems?

S-sorry Teague

Farming boses ? Nope
You raise the chance of getting 2 chunks, but thats it

This is the first time I got parried when trying to finish someone with a gratia, thank fuck it went through. Did not even know it was parryable, although I guess it does make sense.

Where's the FC?

There is a hint in that post.

I'm dumb. Anyways, heading over to Isz now

The crappy arrow whiff with the bowblade is parriable too

Makes me wonder if torch smacks are parryable as well.

cybil.. I'm gonna give this one more attempt and then I'm calling it

>play online for a bit
>the dream's landscape is ruined by all the fucking spectre spots from bloodletter players

I am bad at my job.
PURGE FILTH

sorry but I'm tired as hell and cursed rom is a bunch of horseshit. thanks for coming back, but I need to sleep.

Anyone spelunking? I'd like to join.

dont forget chikage afkers

fug, we could always get a 3rd person to join

Alright, thanks for hosting Teague sweet dreams

finally got FRC roots again. They had better streamline this in BB2

Wait, did I not blood-bullet, Fang?

Church pick in tricked mode is all thrust attacks, right? How much would the untricked mode suffer in terms of damage if I only put thrust gems on the weapon?

All thrust attacks, yes. As for untricked, the first R1 is thrust and the rest are slash attacks.

Close one.

Quick, post an underrated weapon

Youre quite the pingmaster today

I am? I guess I'll restart then.

They are

Less than half of the untricked mode is Thrust (1st & 4th r1, r2, roll/step r1 and l1)

All right, if that's the case then I guess I can just get two church picks and gem on for thrust and the other for physical to utilize both movesets

Dont worry, i will be leaving now for the night anyway , good fights ygolr and cheese

You too, user. Pleasure fighting you.

>tfw only one in Isz

It is kind of late for the majority of bbg no? Its 11:10 pm here

...

*posts boomhamer*
People just love smashing themselves into fully charged r2's and l1 followups

Ye, good fights, but I am bailing out as well, its 7 am here. I usually stay for longer than just an hour but my stamina is emptied.

10 PM over here. I might just go farm.

...

Wish i could play bb in the morning like that

Where are the old links for gem-farming? The ones that lead to the Bloodborne wikia and suggested what kind of gems to farm for that specific weapon?

Does anyone else feel bad for Orphan? It crawls out of the corpse of its mother and is immediately attacked by some random asshole

...

The entire DLC is the tale of a tragedy. Bloodborne is as much cosmic horror as it is Gothic horror, and with that territory comes tragedy. I always interpreted the cinematic's dialogue as saying it's not a great solution, but it'll have to do, for this tragedy that could not be answered for.
>a bottomless curse
>a bottomless sea
>accepting of all that there is, and can be
We didn't really end curse, not truly, we just sort of dumped it, killed it, threw it under a rug it'll never get out of. It was a messy end to a messy situation. The Old Hunters is a bad fucking feeling throughout.

does anyone want to help with Ludwig? Im a whirlgig noob and Ive been stuck forever and want to progress for once

I'm down, password?

I'll be there in a minute

bbg is the password. fair warning, I suck ass

Ringing.

ring a ding ding

>fextra

Are you at the lantern just before the fog gate?

Thank you guys so fucking much, seriously.

Still not picking you up.

Little tardy to the part my friend.

>those bloodstains around the doll in the abandoned workshop
>that sound when you hit it
Spooked me real good

>Perfect BA gem after just five attempts

There's multiple types of BA gems ya know.
I personally ended up getting 3 perfect dirty, 4 perfect bolt, 2 perfect fire, and even a perfect pulsing gem before getting a perfect arcane one

I got a 23.1% arc + 14 arc for my Kos Parasite. Beast Down but that doesn't really bother me since I'll be using it for PvP

Reiterpallasch blood damage is only applied via the trick pistol correct?

Yes.

Yes

Things get a little abstract at this point.

Similar to Gael in Dark Souls 3, it looks like this blood-spattered body is applied through the Age value.

Are crooked eyes and a crooked mouth just typical Yharnamite features?

What the shit

Regarding Gael, do you know how to get his beard with Savewizard?
Also are all those deformed faces in the game or just experiments? I only recall the old woman, the skeptical man and the beggar.

In order we have:
>Lonely Old Dear, Yhara'Gul (Rifle Spear), Yahar'Gul (Cane)
>Djura, Narrow Minded Man, Suspicious Beggar
>Forgotten Madman, Madman's Escort

As for Gael, all you need to do is set your Age to 3 (0 being Young, 1 being Mature, 2 being Aged). You can't get just his beard, you'll get his entire face. The beard (and parts of the face) clip through any equipment you wear.

The age data is stored near the stats, right?

It's stored in the facedata block. I haven't checked DaS3 myself, but if it's anything like Bloodborne it should straight up have the word FACE in plain text at the beginning of it.

The value that's 64 here is Age, so on a scale of 0 to 2, the Beggar's age is 100.

Wow, you really are the best. Thank you very much for all the work you're doing.

...

whats the most aesthetic L-hand weapon? im partial to the evelyn

Ludwig's rifle, no doubt.

Piercing Rifle

important question to all you guys who duped the executioner rune, do you have to kill alfred while he's chilling at the entrance to forbidden woods? or can you dupe it when he finishes annalise and he goes back to where he was when he gave you the fire paper?

i'm wondering because i want to have the roar gesture but he only gives it to you after he murders the cucks

Go back to where you first met him and the rune will be on his corpse.

>got home from work at 6am
>time for bloodborne
It's been so long since a game has taken hold of my life like this

Does the Tonitrus require heavy investment in ARC to be of any worth?

Not really, I get pretty decent damage on it with just 15 arc, 40 str, and tempering gems, over 400 for an R1 when buffed.

Nah, just a bit of Arc and you'll be smashing things weak to bolt.

Yes, 25 Str 50 Arc and Nourishing Gems (with +bolt secondary effects) to maximize the damage.

how do I kill defiled hot doggo? kirkhammer doesn't seem too effective

Beast Cutter Tricked 2 at range

Focus on hitting his head, until it breaks: then, break its forelegs and hit the head for more damage; eventually, repeat the process with its rear legs.
Play unlocked, run away for explosions and dodge toward it, if it does the jump attack.

Go for the head, go for legs during lava vomits. Get something with range and quick recovery to slap his face while baiting/spacing out head swipes

I've been focusing on its head, baiting out its bites which leaves it open for an attack. I can hit it for 1k damage with a charged R2 to its head when it's down. It's usually miss-timing an attack that usually gets me, since the Kirk is slow.

I'll try out a different weapon, perhaps the Beast Cutter as suggested.

Thanks for the advice anons, I'll take a quick break and see if I can take this doggo down.

doggo is weakest to thrust, tinge, and phys damage

Fuck I forgot serrated

Muh >>/d/ick

Keep at it, good user! We appreciate you and what you do!

What's your ARC build?

>WRONG.
Oh boy I can only imagine the followup

50/28 arc/str, nothing special
Each ACB was ripping off about 2k per go

No shit. She's extremely weak to bolt and tanky against physical.

Why is the tonsil stone called the tonsil stone?
