I think first time BB should be experienced alone. Elevates experience much more. If i beat a boss by someone's help then i think yaar i didn't kill him. Basically gher liya usko :P

 

Just my thinking. 

 

Good for you. Just so you know we were roaming around in the overworld trying out co-op etc and accidentally stumbled upon the boss. And thankfully all 3 of us came out with our manhoods intact while laughing like mad at what we had just done.

So, went to healing church and collected everything. Then when I thought to farm some echoes in cathedral ward for unlocking the key to Vicar Amelia considering its quite easy compared to old yharnam and much less creepy too. Some old witch type thing which was super strong killed me and I woke up in some jail. 

 

Every enemy was way stronger than me. After dying a few times, I just rushed through the stairs to go up and unlocked the lantern. Somehow beat the 2 old beggar/witch type things and found something called moon and also found communion in healing church area. Any idea how to use them? 

 

Anyways, got my axe to +4 and unlocked ludwig's holy blade and some 4-6 other weapons. Kirkhammer, saw spear, saw cleaver, threaded cane, rifle spear and stake driver. 

 

Should I still stay with axe? People online really gush about ludwig's holy blade. Should I farm echoes for it? I have a lot of blood stone shards so I can get it to +3 immediately. 

I sold ludwigs blade for vials :P

 

Went with cleaver all the way

Frankly, all weapons in this game (even the ones you get at the very beginning) are viable. What weapon you use depends on your play-style, reflexes etc. You will find that while many of the vocal communities gush about Ludwig's blade, it's not for everyone. I personally preferred the Saw Cleaver (non-extended version), and the rapier form of Kirkhammer. This is because I preferred to get more hits in before having to dodge. Some others preferred the high damage of the bulky weapons (Ludwig sword falls in this category). There are still others who preferred the whip or spear. So you just have to try all weapons and see which you are most comfortable with. What suits others might not suit you and vice-versa.

 

That, according to me is one of the beautiful parts of the game. Weapons are not just numbers, that are to be thrown away as soon as a better one comes around. In this game, you use a weapon that you are most comfortable with, and you will grow more skilled the more you use it. Much like a real weapon, in the hands of a real warrior would be, I imagine.

So I just got the game and played for like 45 mins and I realized I can't play in online mode because I don't have a psn plus membership. That's still ok I guess though I am not happy but what bothers me more is that without online mode I can't even see those messages people leave about items and dangers like that is the best part about the game and that is behind a pay wall is so damn sad.

Plus the game play feels different than soul game especially considering I am a shell character who stays behind a shield and attacks when the monster makes a mistake. Did not use doge as much.

Here playing without a shield I have to relearn everything and start afresh.

Some of the later can be skipped.

I don't remember the amount but 3 gravestones need to be completed.(I skipped one completely for sure)

 

Only two bosses to worry about : amygdala (can be cheesed) and fire dog (will take some tries) - half hp

Struck now, completed the below dungeons 

 

Pthumeru
Central Pthumeru
Lower Pthumeru

Hintercomb
Lower Hintercomb

 

Now I dont have enough materials to create a chalice ritual different from above, what do I do in this case - should I remove the chalices which are done and replay them to get required materials ??  If I have one more insight I can progress here so just replay then ?

I never was out of material and never replayed a chalice.

You always get some material for creating the next after you beat the previous one.

 

Maybe you played a chalice you didn't need to play.

Strongly advice you to check a guide to see the fastest order to reach queen.

Yeah, that's what I thought too.. I spent like 60 insights on getting the second BloodRock.. now really struggling with that. Finally was able to create Ailing Loran Chalice.. which also Houses the Beast Claw for the Essense trophy... should pick up from here.. or will refer a guide

Done with all trophies except the queen now, I need some Arcane Haze to create Defied Chalice and once defied is complete the final one Ihyll needs to be created and hunt for the queen !!  Almost there now.. taken some solid time

 

Edit: How dumb, I have the Haze Extractor

That is only because the game doesn’t tell you anything how you are supposed to play but once you learn and execute it’s the best thing ever !  Anyways up to you

You will die a lot. Is the best game I have ever played though. It took me 43 attempts to kill one of the earlier bosses. Killed her, took it up as a challenge and platinumed it. My first platinum.

Well interesting. Maybe I'll pick it up if I see it at a good price :)

Thanks!
