I know the trap door in Byrgenwyrth probably leads to the chalice dungeons (going by the in game descriptions and chats with Alfred), but it feels like the perfect location for a DLC entrance.

I never knew about this until you mentioned it!

To be honest, I hope it isn't for DLC as I'd prefer a huge open area after all the fights I've had in the more claustrophobic chalice dungeons.

Of course it could lead to an open outdoor area.. it's just that it's going down that would make it seem unlikely

Kind of angry at myself for missing the ARGOS 400e deal with Mortal Kombat and Bloodbourne a few weeks back.

Any other maniacs attempting a Level 4 run? Haven't played mine in a few weeks but I'd be up for helping someone out whenever.

Okay... I may have t level up a bit.

Think I've one character on lvl 67ish and the other is close to lvl170

Grayditch

I think 86 should be able to summon 67, maybe. Either way, I'll be on this weekend for some dungeon sham killin'.

Bought it from Adverts and was a good deal. I had contemplated getting the Gamestop deal of PS4 + Bloodborne around Easter (didn't know about Argos deal!) and when I caved I was kicking myself over it I didn't so checked on adverts for anyone selling a PS4 and Bloodborne at reduced cost. At the end of the day, €400-€500 can still be quite alot of money when one game is the sole motivation for it.

Awesome.. I've a few games on the fly at the moment so I can hop on whenever really.

I was up until last week, got stuck at Gazza(bypassed the first boss altogether).
Stopped playing, will go back to it some time.

Would be up for a bit of SL4 co-op though.

I'll probably leave it until after my exams to be honest, I'll get hooked on it. I'll give you a PM whenever I pick it up again, go from there if that's cool

Hi All,

I'm at the end now -

I have to head down to the tree to meet Germain. I have the 3 umbilical cords.

Quick questions - If I battle him, will I get multiple chances to do so?

If I then take the 3 cords and face the alien boss, will I also have multiple chances to beat him?

After defeating them both (hopefully!) does ng+ begin?

Is NG+ only a little harder or very though compared to the stats of all creatures from 1st playthrough?

Finally, If I let germain kill me, do I get a ng+ run or is the game fully over?

Sorry for the slew of questions!!

Thanks!

I don't know but I assume so

See above

You eat them before

Germain

Automatically yes

Good bit harder I found

You get an NG+

Thanks DS - appreciate all your help.

My head is completely wreaked with later dungeons and fancy ng+

Are final bosses very tough? I might take the easy road to ng+ if so.

I think the bottom line is I am reluctant to walk away from this game even though I'm totally exhausted with it after finishing most of main game. But would like a run at regular bosses again with my monster stats now!

I'm looking forward to the next game experience - witcher 3 maybe (I got back into gaming for Bloodborne by buying the PS4.)

2 pretty cool images which are perfect for a phone screen. I was going to link them but they are huge so here's the reddit.

Uuggggghhh! Dungeons are so so boring. I want to "finish" the game before i move onto another game but its such a struggle.

Wat do?

DeclanRe

Here I was a few days ago saying how easy i'm finding the game. An now I'm getting my ass handed to me by Vicar Amelia. Any tips? Should i just move on and come back to her?

Use the beckoning bell to have someone come help you. Thats what I have been doing for most of the bosses

Ahhh - I thought that was just for chalice dungeons or something. So does the Bell just pull someone from someone else who is in their own game to help you?

Use the fire on your weapon and numbing mist to disable her heal and learn to dodge her big attack. Having stamina to keep attacking with a decent weapon is important too.

Yep, its great. You may be waiting a few minutes for someone to join tho. I was waiting about 10 minutes for someone to help me with another boss. Its well worth it.

Everytime you ring the bell you use 1 insight, if you are low on insight use some madmens knowledge. By now you should have some in your inventory

Stand back to bait her leap attack. Dodge right and get three hits on. Rinse repeat.

Worked for me at Level 4... Use Molotov's if needed

You've been given some good tips but just keep in mind her strongest attacks all seem to come from her right hand, and you can have some luck dodging towards her for some attacks I found.

I found the fight very very tough, dunno how many times she killed me, but stick with it.

Just got through Nightmare Frontier, didn't really like it compared to the other areas in the game to be honest.

Cainhurst next.

Just got the

true

ending

Not seeing anything wildly different with NG+ except for more difficult enemies.
Does it vary much later or am I just retreading old ground? If retreading I think that's me done so.
As to the dungeons - cleared 3 or 4. Have to try Lornes (I think). Was surprising meeting one of the bosses down there - gave me a shock as it was a boss that took me ages to kill but I quickly finished them off...

Any good deals on this now? Seems like using the US PS Store trick is the best I've seen thus far ($59.99).

DeSelby83

I fu*king hate vicar amelia. It's actually turning me off the game.
What level should i be to manage the first dungeon roughly? Think i need to farm up a bit

Interested Observer

Had to summon help for the first time to beat Martyr Longarius, just totally hit a wall with him. Beat him anyway, got Amygdala yesterday too so making a bit of progress.

The vic really got to me too.
Have a look at some YouTube vids.

Get health to half
Then start using the lures, can't remember the name but they distract her - odious blood or something similar.
I think I used a flame enabled weapon at this part but get in get one or two critical hits and get out.
Use the scenery to keep relatively safe...

If I finish the game and go into NG+, are the chalice dungeons NG+ difficulty aswell? Or should I try do the dungeons before I finish. Very near the end but I'm holding off and going through the dungeons

Dungeon difficulty stays the same so it's fine to move on to NG+
