one reborn is the best Dead Space boss fight in Bloodborne

[QUOTE=DeVotchKa;49130346]What the [i]fuck[/i] the One Reborn.[/QUOTE] I don't want to spoil the whole fight for you but keep moving and when it starts puking, get the fuck out of there and wait like 10 seconds before you come back to beat his ass

[QUOTE=Dr.C;49130678]I don't want to spoil the whole fight for you but keep moving and when it starts puking, get the fuck out of there and wait like 10 seconds before you come back to beat his ass[/QUOTE] I killed it before that happened. I noticed its legs get goofed easy and i figured it was like Keloggs where the body was a big deal, so i Bolted my Holy Blade, broke each leg and after about four combos and some body shots, it died.

[QUOTE=DeVotchKa;49130346]What the [i]fuck[/i] the One Reborn.[/QUOTE] I spent that entire fight making euuugh and heerruff noises of disgust.

So if I use Old hunter bone, I can superdash like Gehrman? Didnt try it yet, my arcane is embarassingly low

Welp Micolash is obnoxious as all hell.

Micolash works perfectly for a first time fight but after that it's just tedious. I honestly really loved that.

Sorry for posting so much recently. It's weird though, a lot of the earlier bosses were way harder than now. One Reborn, Micolash and Mergo's Nurse were all pretty easy. I'm sure it'll get harder for this next fight, cause i feel i'm close to the end, but still.

I took down Ebrietas easily my first run through but on NG+ with the same build and a new character later she was a lot harder. [sp]Gehrman[/sp](should this really be a spoiler? It's as obvious as Quattro being Char) is always a difficult boss battle for me. Moon Presence is pretty difficult too but only because it never stops attacking and leaves you no breathing room except for when it drains all your hp. IMO the hardest part is the outside of Cainhurst. Bloodlickers are just too good at fighting and the worms are hard to hit

[QUOTE=salty peanut v2;49130490]one reborn is the best Dead Space boss fight in Bloodborne[/QUOTE] That's literally what I thought of Bloodborne while playing it over on a friend's place. It's just fucking Dead Space: Old Timey Wimey; Menstrual Cycle edition. You've got the moon, you've got the necromorphs, you've got the overdone gore, you've got the snakes, you've got the guns... It's Dead Space 4, just disguised.

[QUOTE=Dr.C;49134543]IMO the hardest part is the outside of Cainhurst.

Just dodge their attacks, get behind them and attack them, the big red thing is their weak point apparently.

[QUOTE=Stizzles;49135231]I thought so too, until I accidentally discovered a pretty easy way to beat them. Just dodge their attacks, get behind them and attack them, the big red thing is their weak point apparently.[/QUOTE] I dunno, my biggest thing is that they seem to have a lot of phantom range, sometimes where i'd dodged their jumps before, i'd get hit that time despite seemingly no change in how it all went down.

[QUOTE=maddogsamurai;49127918]Me thinks that the coffin creatures are some of the citizens of Vahar'gul that backfired on the snatchers. The whole town's gone to hell in a hand basket. Speaking of the DLC, someone on YT speculated that the hunter on The Old Hunters cover is [sp]the scholar who betrayed Willem at Byrgenwerth and founded the Vilebloods.[/sp] [video=youtube;wfdj9sMZGE8]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfdj9sMZGE8&list=PLcRVFxaH4Y1gPxSPwaVr-iOqAzCJ_9qRR&index=9[/video][/QUOTE] What if the clock runs on a global clock, and whenever a certain hand is on a rune, it applies a special buff to every online connected player?

[QUOTE=slayer20;49135963]What if the clock runs on a global clock, and whenever a certain hand is on a rune, it applies a special buff to every online connected player?[/QUOTE] Like if someone has the eye rune equipped when the clock strikes 11am or pm(where the symbol is located on the clock in the boxart), that rune gets a boost in it's abilities? Sounds...interesting. This makes buffs for PvP completely randomized and varied for multiple attempts and replayability. That is until someone memorizes the runes on the clock, or needs to. More Hunter speculation: What if the hunter shown [sp] is the younger Queen Annalise of Cainhurst, and she's the scholar that betrayed Wilem? The guy in the video mentioned that they both have the same hair color, though it's hard to see. The Hunter is also seated in a respectful, feminine posture, much like the Queen. Me thinks that the Ring of Betrothal and the Blood Sperm will play a role here than in the present. Maybe in the present she's so old that she's infertile, and can't fight like she used to. Though by this time the Blood Magic made her immortal. Either that or it's the forgotten King of Cainhurst, with ties to Formless Odeon that betrayed Wilem.[/sp]

The timeline of events is pretty hard to figure out though. Wilhelm is an old as shit guy but Cainhurst seems like it's own old nation with its own culture and history. It seems like whoever started the vilebloods corrupted the blood of whoever was already at cainhurst or a corrupted blood fit in with them perfectly. I don't even know what the corruption is supposed to be but it's called a "forbidden blood" and Byrgenwerth is where Rom resides so I think it might be some of Rom's blood

[/QUOTE] I was thinking more along the lines of a buff to everyone, regardless of what rune they had equipped.

So I created another character (This maybe be the fifth one, oh god what am I doing) this time getting stuff earlier from Blighttown using the master key. But first I got the first Fire Keeper soul from New Londo Ruins. Got the Crimson set and other stuff, went to a suicide run to get the Fire Keeper soul where the toxic snipers are. Later, I went to Darkroot Garden and I got the Elite Knight Set and other various items. Also did another run in the cemetery and where the undead dragon is. Is incredible how you don't know how many options the game gives you until you know the entire area. You can pretty much can have an easier time by getting some good items earlier. I was feeling so lucky when I got the third Fire Keeper soul from the church. I was like: "Neat, only one Fire Keeper soul left, now to free Lautrec and then talk to th-" [t]http://jesusfuck.me/di/PETU/meta.jpg[/t] "Wait a minute, where is he?... Oh no *Checks back at the shrine* OH NOOOOO" And then I learned another new thing. Thanks From Software. I also learned the ninja bodyguard has a unique ring, I can't stop laughing at the animation your character does when he does that flip.

Also looks like some monster just skinned Amila and turned her into a fur hat. #BeastWaifuLivesMatter.[/sp]

Remember when I said I feel bad when I invade some one with only a few hours in the game? Well this time I got invaded by someone with a few hours... Twice, poor soul didn't stand a chance. Thankfully the sun smiled on me and I got summoned by him, I helped clearing the church and then we were going to beat the gargoyles with Solarie and... "Disconnected from the world". Internet decides to be funny and dies for a while. I just wanted to be nice to someone. And then I got invaded again by someone new. Well, according to his hours on Steam they were new, you never know.

The other screenshot with the guy wearing the Beast Claws looks like it's more than just some hat. Doesn't look as big and burly as I was hoping for, though.[/sp]

[Sp]I wonder if they'll make the Minigun 1 shot = 1 bullet or like the Flamesprayer's holding for every 1.4 seconds = 1 bullet.[/sp]

Can The Old Hunters come out already?

That was just a translation mess up because they call the effect you get when you use Beast Blood Pellets 'transformation'.[/sp]

[QUOTE=Zeos;49142178]Can The Old Hunters come out already?[/QUOTE] It's just another 6 days. The wait has been very bearable because I've been preoccupied with schoolwork, tale of zestiria, and space engineers
