Let's talk about that with werewolves and aliens in.

So there a primer on chalice dungeons? I completed the first one and got two new chalices out of it, but they both seem like they'd make the same dungeon.
>>
Some chalices you win make essentially the same dungeon you just cleared but with randomly generated layout and loot, the other one makes a new type of dungeon entirely.
>>
>>336485579

Ah. So the type of dungeon determines difficulty? Like pthumeru are always the easiest, and so on? Do you get the other types later in the main game, or do you have work your way up through the chalice dungeons themselves?
>>
>>336485993
>Ah. So the type of dungeon determines difficulty? Like pthumeru are always the easiest, and so on?
Yeah, more or less, accounting for whatever extra offerings you do during the ritual.

I don't remember if you get any other actual chalices during the main game since I did everything at once at the end while waiting for the DLC to come out. It might be that you don't get any other actual chalices from the main game but gathering materials for the rituals is what gates progress.

The depth rating determines difficulty. 1 is the easiest, 5 is the hardest. Of course there is a wrench thrown in, the Cursed and Defiled Pthumerian chalice is depth 4, but it's arguably harder than any of the depth 5 chalices because you are always at 50% health. Physical damage is reduced by the same amount, but most enemies do fire or arcane damage which is not reduced at all.

Some of the chalices you will have to do for chalice materials even though they're not otherwise required towards the progress of the Great Pthumerian Ihyll chalice.

It's amazing how influential ignorance is--it's the same reason why animals are hunted to extinction because they believe their tusks, eyes or even penile bone are believed to be remedies.

Again, if you can imagine, the game revolved around man's first contact with a higher lifeform and man's next step in evolution. Man in its current state can never hope to surpass itself, not with what sins, desires and material things we cling to. No wonder Yarhnam was in such a state of pandemonium.

Arcane is best specced into later, once you already have the gems and weapons to make it work. It sucks early on. Unless you plan on stopping at a certain level for PVP, just keep leveling up until you can do literally everything on one character.

>>336489625
Personally I think it's just based around the old religious practice of self-flagellation, which rips up your back. It's also very similar to how vermin is described. Clerics become bigger beasts by resisting the transformation, that one self-flagellated himself to rid himself of "impurity" he probably didn't understand (just as in real life they're attempting to rid themselves of sin), and ultimately you end up with a giant beast with a giant back wound and giant parasite coming out of him releasing its children.

You'll start finding twin shards starting in the area after you clear the Cathedral Ward. You'll find ample materials for upgrading throughout the storyline. Chalices are a second source of them, but not necessary unlike gem hunting.

What silly and stupid things do you do when aummoned/being summoned/win an invasion?

I like either spinning in place with the flamesprayer, or rapidly mashing the L1 on the Tonitrus while dashing around to make my character look silly.

I also hotkeyed my Vermin so that when I assist someone, I show them myself stamping out Vermin, as all good League Confederates ought to do.

>>336494192
twin blood shards, blood stone chunks, and blood rocks can all be found in the main game and DLC, although rocks only appear once per main game and once per DLC playthrough. They have a very low chance of being a reward for beating a depth 5 chalice.

You know all the DLC bosses were some of the toughest bosses I've ever fought but they all felt manageable and fun to fight, all of them EXCEPT for Laurence.

Laurence was one of the most aggravating and arduous experiences I've ever had with a single soul's boss and it still doesn't seem plausible that I had to spend an entire night with him. I mean you wouldn't expect a reskinned cleric beast to be the hardest boss out of the entire BB boss lineup but it honestly got to that stage with me.

you can find some decent arcane and fire gems around the middle of the game, thats what I did.
Once you hit around 50 arcane, the spells start doing absurd damage.

>>336488636
the spell casting in this game is quite literally connected to the old gods sight. 'Grant us eyes' is literal, to learn the eldritch ways you need to see more than the average hunter. would only make sense that the witches would seek eyes in the most basic sense as a misunderstanding of how magic truly works.

It's ingenious really, the first boss everyone fought is now the last boss most people will fight.
Only now with an inflated health pool that assures you'll be dealing chip damage no matter the weapon, shitloads of resistances, a moveset that punishes strategies people have gotten use to with endless AOE attacks and a third phase which is the most deceptively dangerous part of the battle.

Probably has one of the best tracks in the game though:

>>336504574
Biggest issues with defiled Amy are the jump attacks and the arcane spheres on the regular attacks in second phase.
The jump attack just needs a brief delay before rolling out of the way but the arcane damage is a real problem since in the defiled dungeons elemental damage doesn't get nerfed like physical damage does.

Wait until you get her down to the point when she rips off her arms. Then attack one leg until she dies. When she jumps, stand perfectly still and you'll never get hit.

Is it worth going through all the chalice dungeons?
I really want to fight the last boss simply because it actually has plot shit connected to it and for Platinum i guess
>>
>>336508885
I think so. There's some fun bosses only found in the dungeons as well as more challenging versions of normal bosses.
>>
I replayed Bloodborne over the last few days and almost forgot how good it looks.
The Dark Souls games are great, but yuo can tell that BB or even DeS back than had Sony support on their side.
Everything is so detailed and polished, the OST is a step above everything else from Fromsoftware and even the chalice dungeons are great compared to nothing in DS3 except for a NG+ that barely is any more challening
>>
Are there still people playing online?
Might buy this soon.

>>336509869
If you don't overlevel you should still find enough people to play with
For some reason is barely played PVP or Coop in BB though, compared to souls. It just feels more like a solo game

You'll definitely find people to play with, especially in the DLC.
But as long as your timing is good you shouldn't have to many problems with most of the main game bosses

What references to Demon's Souls were in Dark Souls?
>>
>>336512937
>>336513208

Dark Souls 3 felt harder than Bloodborne to me.

Mostly because enemies in Bloodborne basically don't block. Shitloads of enemies block in Dark Souls 3, and a lot of moves that directly counter trying to bypass the shield.
>>
>>336513607
There were swords that were also in Demon Souls. The Longsword, broadsword, bastard sword, etc. :^)

There are dudes with shields and flaming swords in the chalice dungeons. They're basically the only enemy in the game that actually blocks attacks. They're pretty easy to parry but if you fuck up they can almost 1 hit you with their flaming sword.
>>
>>336485993
No, type of Chalice determines the look of the dungeon and what enemy/bosses are in it. Pthumeru is the basic dungeon type has mostly Pthuemian type enemies, Hintertomb is similar but more dark and dirty looking, a few unique bosses only spawn here, Loran is desert type and has mostly beast type enemies and a few unique bosses, Isz is blue and mostly kin type enemies (Ayy-Lmao) and has a few unique bosses.

Depth determines difficulty, by affecting the health/damage values of enemies, also lower depths have more and more enemy types. 1 is easier than the first area of the game, 2 is roughly Old Yharnam/Cathederal Ward difficulty, 3 is mid game difficulty, 4 is endgame levels of difficulty, 5 is equivilant to NG+ (or even higher).

Chalice's don't have all depths though, Pthumeru has 1-5, Hintertomb only has 2-3 (I think), Loran has 4-5, Isz is just 5.
>>
>>336491910
The timing is slightly slower (but it's easy to get used to), the main difference is the spread, because it shoots a cone of pellets you will never miss at close range, even on a quick enemy, which can be a problem for the Pistol.

NG cycle doesn't affect Chalice's so feel free to come back later.

Don't overlevel for the main game to beat a chalice, just play the regular game at your own pace and do Chalice's as you can. People have done it at level 4, you'll get it eventually.
>>
>>336516265
Dungeons don't scale with NG and they all remain when you go into the next cycle.
>>
>>336516265
That's just how depth 4 and 5 is compared to the rest, much more difficult. Chalice difficulty never changes regardless of whether you're on NG or NG+6.
