Is it viable in PVE (read: viable, not possible) to use your gun for a lot of damage without either: farming for gems non-stop or be at 50 bloodtinge and thus on NG+ or grinding.
I'm assuming with a +10 evelyn I could if I had 50 bloodtinge.
But what about getting the runes to get +5 bullets per visceral attack? Wouldn't that more or less make it work

I imagine it will be hard but on the other hand, a +10 repeatng pistol with BMA would wreck most bosses at high BT, no?

fromsoft wouldn't tease a sony exclusive on their own, next fromsoft games are multiplat

Bloodborne was contracted before the ds1 pc port. Fromsofts exclusive days are DONE

Getting a decent gem on your gun isn't hard, you could have a 30%+ gem on a Repeating Pistol, however much Blt you wanna pump and shit on stuff with BMA shots. As long as you have vials, you have blood bullets

I'd like to spelunk but I don't want to partake in the joke with that password.

I'm already at layer 3 anyway

Want me to host?

Sure. Feel like a Loran?

Sure, just give me a sec.

>Fromsofts exclusive days are DONE
Something tells me they are working on two souls games at once, the director of bloodborne and toh tweeted they have something coming up and honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if shadows die twice was b-team garbage.

Awesome. Gonna SRRC into L1, if that's ok

Ok.

u wot m8?

despise living failures

All my altars are set with farming glyphs

FULL.

Session lost?

lmao power off

Layer 1 report:

>Cheeky lad couldn't trigger the elevator for the next layer fast enough
Meh, at least there were something to kill: onto L2.

Yeah, my ISP. On l2 now

Give me one minute, just making a coffee

I remember being really freaked out outside a door/window by some guy/girl making beast noises. After the bloodmoon on want to check back up on then. Anyone have any idea what I'm talking about?

Your mom?

I'll cheek the boss arena, I warn you.

Hemwick maybe?

Caught me in my inventory lol

Thanks, I think that was it actually.

Layer 2 report:
>Pre lamp bonus area confirmed
>Lindsay got pthu'd while looking for some Madman's Knowledge in her inventory
>Loot was nothing remarkable, except for some Ritual Blood (5)
>Furry Hunter with a pair of really spastic Beast Claws
>My plan to make Piggu and a vilecuck infight failed
>Tyrone left his blood-starved pitbull in the arena: avenged Thomas and even got a decent gem
Better, but I still hope for something more on L3.

How has Bloodborne affected you?

No, it’s shit unless you optimize for it and then it ranges from okay to extremely OP

How the fuck is it humanly possible to do this without wanting to make more builds at different levels

jacksepticeye :^)

>get grabbed by BSB
Have you tried not turning your brain off before playing?

Fetish for doll joints.

Is there anything with higher rally than the hunter's axe?

All I have to do is attack while being attacked and I survive just fine. It's like easy mode

It has the highest. Whirli comes close.

Kirkhammer charged R2 is insane

Autism?

Saw Cleaver and Spear have pretty decent rally on their transformation attacks and they can be chained really fast. Whirligig is the only other one that comes to mind. Amygdalan Arm and Beast Cutter can hyper armor into a mob and rally it all back with a few swings, but the individual hits ain't all that.

Burial Blade has the highest rally. That's like its whole shtick. Try it with guidance sometime.

save editor fags?
Is it true that savewizard disabled hex editing for bloodborne?

Attached: C44DE16F-B047-4943-A5E5-504552A13D3B.jpg (1969x1274, 1.53M)

It made me buy a PS4. That's about it.

People say that but I don't think its true. Check the bottom here: bloodborne-wiki.com/2017/03/weapon-analysis.html

Also switch attack usually regain you more health, and the hunters axe ones are way quicker than the burial blades.

Is Str/Arc a thing? 50/25 or so? What could I do with that?

I'm a retard, what's rally? When you gain health back by attacking enemies?

Got dropped again. Ringin' on the boss' steps

Have a big beefy wheel, untricked hmls, and amy arm. Plus stuff like kirk, cuttah, boomhammer

STR ARC is great. Boom Hammer, Tonitrus, Wheel, HMLS. I recommend 50/50.

Yea

What's the reason/lore of how much rally a weapon has?

>Something tells me they are working on two Souls games at once
It makes sense, DS2 and BB were developed simultaneously, as were DS3 and BB. Otherwise we'd have 3 year breaks between each game.

You can also bet that whichever of the games Miyazaki is the most active in directing is going to be the most critically acclaimed of them. If they're doing AC[reboot] / SDT[''weird game''] / Yet to be announced [Souls with different name], I think they could let Tanimura handle Armored Core while Miyazaki works between the Souls style game and the ''weird'' game.

It doesn't according to the Weapon Data, but it does feel pretty high

Yes, with 50/25 you can use Toni, Boom Hammer, Wheel and HMS including other Str weapons and Skl weapons with Heavy Abyssals. On 25/50 you get those 4 weapons plus Parasite and anything you can convert to fire, bolt and arcane

iirc it's based off how much blood it makes come out or something

How much blood it spills and then soaks up

If the hunters contract is fulfilled is the night done for everyone, or just the hunter? I assume because hunters like djura and eileen both opted out of their contract early and arrived in the waking world but it was still the night of the hunt.

First-attempt Darkbeast? Awww yeah. Nice spelunk

It’s probably mostly balanced around how hard/slow a weapon is. BoM having high rally would be unbalanced for example. Your health is also described as your ”will to survive”, so seeing an enemy take a lot of damage in one hit shortly after it damaged you would in that regard translate to an increased will to survive.

Wow what the fuck happened to my grammar there, sorry folks.

Am I going to want the minimum Skl required, regardless of the weapon?

I didn't try to trigger the lift lol, hate when people do that.
A lot of hosts bolt for the lift and I like going with

Layer 3 report:
>Both pre lamp and pre boss bonus rooms confirmed: finally

>His ambush failed and he got ganked
>Boss was Dorkbeast: stunlocked to death, after a rough start
>No Layer 4
Thanks for joining me, Thomas and Lindsay. This dungeon got better and better with every layer: it was a fun chill spelunk.

Do bosses that appear on different chalice layer typically drop higher rating gems at lower layers?

I.e. watchers on layer 2 drop rating 18 more than layer one.

its been a while bbg and i still see that you kept your ways. saddening really but i cant expect too much out of this general

fug

Any tips for the Chikage moveset?

Always a pleasure, thanks for hosting.

Anyone seen a Lost Saw Cleaver recently? Seem to recall a Lost somthing in a layer report from days back

Gascoignes is easier than cleric though

You just walk around cleric beast's ankles and occasionally roll, not locked on. You can parry gascoigne into the dirt too.

But l see no waifus and always play as a man

Spam the transform to tricked attack, ignore untricked moveset.

Can you even expect anything from any general?

Blogposting should be a bannable offense. Every fucking cake thread on /a/ is full of normalfags blogposting.

>farming BAHs

>going to /a/

I really doubt he is the only one

Is the wheel any good without arcane or should I go for a 25/25 split of str/arcane?

>not going to /a/ to discuss lolis, cakes and nagatoro

>Nagatoro

Get out

Yes, no.

50/25 or 25/50

Cakes?

I wanted to do use the kirkhammer too. I could go 50 arcane but would it scale as well with arcane gems over phys

Just convert it into fire, bolt or arcane.

Weapons that do physical damage only and have a listed Arcane scaling don't actually benefit from it if you don't gem them with elemental Bloodgems.

But, the answer is no, elemental conversions typically don't reach the nominal AR of standard weapons.

Cakes
Let me guess, either not muh nanashi or takagi nerd. Either way, off yourself.

Weeaboos are just indescribably sad and disgusting.

Do you really expect me to stop shitposting just because I’m at work away from my computer?

what are some good options for a skill twink? Right now I have BoM +10, I was thinking rakuyo would be decent because of its good skill scaling. Is 43 where I should stay or should i move to 50?
