Got Bloodborne for Christmas and I'm stuck on the Blood-Starved Beast. Help me /v/
learn to parry
>>322012063
Buy a shit ton of molotovsIf you're stuck on BSB then Vicar Amelia is going to fuck you repeatedly
Use a blood pungent cocktail and bring plenty of antidotes
>>322012213
>>322012112
I'm good up until those insta-kill grabs
>>322012063
dodge left on his attack startup. it becomes LITERALLY easy mode once you DODGE LEFT
>>322012340
don't get insta kill grabbed
>>322012340
Remember that his tell for the grab is him being really fucking still, like unnaturally so. It's good to dodge a little early when you see it.
>>322012063
This better be bait
Hang on.
If you wanna summon somebody. I'm way overleveled.
But maybe through the password system we could connect?
Hug him
walk left.
If you throw some pungent blood cocktail's I've heard that it can cheese the fight because the blood starved beast isblood starved
>>322012570
sounds doable
Dodge left
use the item that lights your weapon on fire
dodge left
Run to the far back area of the boss room where there's a statue that you can walk in a circle around, use this to guide the boss to always be in that area so that you can get an extra second of dealing with his poison and shit
I dunno I spent fucking forever on that faggot boss
I hate the bosses in Bloodborne to be honest
They get easier soon though
>>322012213
Lmao.
Amelia is slow as shit, i beat her before i even found the way to BSB. I beat Amelia at my first try using the cleaver without any problems but i legit raged at BSB. to the point i farmed the whole wolfs zone before her for like 3 hours (!).
>>322012213
>someone in the world had trouble with amelia
>>322012063
Post password, I'll help you.
>>322013025
That's where i seem to be at :/
>>322012063
Step 1: Acquire blunderbuss
Step 2: Wait for Blood-Starved to attack and apply blunderbuss liberally
Step 3. Stick hand in face
Step 4: repeat steps 1 through 3 until ded
>buy shit games
>complain it's shit
dsp is that you?
>>322013025
>beat amelia first try
>but got assfucked by BSB
same here, I didn't even know there were people who thought Amelia was hard lol
>>322013246
Farm wolfs,jump from the big ass ladder and die. Farms wolf get your blood jump from the big ass ladder and die, repeat x20
>>322012063
Roll forward towards his left hand op. His attack will miss and you can get some shots in. I lost like ten times before I tried this then killed him easily
>Throw Pungent Cocktail in corner of room.
>Stab BSB
>Throw cocktail in the same place.
>Stab BSB
If you really do want to fight it correctly then just riposte the shit out of it.
>>322012063
Psst. OP. Blood-starved Beast is optional. If you really, truly can't beat him, explore around some more.
OP here, dodging left is a lifesaver however at stage two, if you get locked up in his ape shit swing phase it fucks you...hard.
>>322013168
The cunt repeatedly healed against me
>>322013745
Optional if he beat Cleric and got the item that becomes available in the Bath Shop of course.
>>322013359
It's not that Amelia is hard, it's that she is harder than BSB. It took me to tries to kill Amelia, but I killed BSB on the very first try.
So basically, anyone who got stuck on BSB sucks.
>>322013745
yeah...I know about the 10000 unlock but it's now a pride thing, I want to destroy this foul creature that has eaten up probably 3 hours of my life
>>322013831
Just parry it to death. I'm shit at parrying but he's so easy to parry that I rarely miss.
You have to accept that the visual attack phoning is just for pretend, and no matter how safe you think you are, the game will shockwave you unless you do a roll to be invincible and thus win what boils down to invisible QTEs. It's not an action game.
>>322013831
Dodge forward and to the left instead. You'll dodge straight through his attacks and just circle behind him while he swings away to avoid the hits, then hit him when he's done moving.
This idea holds true for a lot of bosses and enemies actually.
>>322013925
Numbing Mist nigga. When she gets to half health, just bung one in her face to premptively stop it. I think the effect lasts for about half a minute.
>>322013927
I'm assuming he beat the Cleric Beast because the game funnels you down that path and most new players just assume he's the first mandatory boss.
>>322014241
yeah i beat both cleric and Gascoigne first try which is why I'm so taken back by the BSB
>>322014064
I understand the feeling. You also miss out on Chalice Dungeons if you skip him, and there's some good shit down there.
He's weak to fire and serrated weapons. Use oil urns, molotovs, fire paper. If you want to be a really cheap bastard, Flamesprayer + pungent blood cocktail. He's also parryable.
shit I was so close guys, the 3rd stage hes just so fast and i ran out of antidotes
>>322015118
Don't bother with antidotes. He's so aggressive in that phase that by the time you've cured your poison he'll have smacked you and probably poisoned you again.
Just heal through it and keep fucking attacking.
>>322015118
Best of luck anon.
You should buy Gascoigne's set from the other Bath Messengers in the Dream. If I recall it has pretty good poison res.
>>322015118
just use the columns around the room to keep him at bay
Thank you my dudes. I'll try to put all of your advise into my attempts but for now I have to take a break.
>>322013025
Amelia is too slow, and fucks me up every time
I end up dodging too early during her slow as fuck windups
Just ring your bell.
First phase: Stand right in front of him and parry. Easiest thing in the world.
Second phase: Oil him up and fire paper/molotov him
Third phase: Chuck a pungent blood cocktail, and then visceral him
Throw molotovs at him as he regenerates his poison.
There, you've won.
I want to marry Henrietta!
>>322012063
You hit it, really fucking hard.
Then you burn it.
