CorgiShinobi Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 Rifle Spear made that boss battle really easy. So you did go through the Grand Cathedral window to reach the real challenge, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetalCaveman Posted May 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 After posting that I decided to give it a try, ended up summoning someone, though they died when Reveal hidden contents she/it started to sing and move really REALLY fast. Also, was that Amygdala in the altar? Or just something that looks like it? Reveal hidden contents To get to the boss in the Upper Cathedral Ward you have to go past the werewolves to the main entrance (where you also open a nice shortcut leading back to the lamp), then up some stairs. Don't forget to pick up the Cosmic Eye hunter badge in a corridor to the left (left if you're going in from the shortcut, otherwise it's the right one) of where the werewolves are, near one of those brainsucker enemies. Also, Arianna's baby shows up after Micolash, she starts acting weird after Rom, then, when you defeat Micolash you can find her downstairs.

Thursday Next Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Think I might need to summon some help for the Shadow(s) of Mordor Yharnam. :/ Didn't even get close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Focus on the one with only a sword first. He's the easiest to parry, but do keep in mind the second swordsman's placement. Lure those two further away from the third who only casts fireballs. Once you've taken out the first with a few good parries, the other swordsman is basically the same tactic. The fireball guy then becomes a piece of cake as he's all alone. Did it first try, though I won't lie that they almost got me once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thursday Next Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 I severely underestimated Rom. May need a Summon. Ice rain is cheap as shit and nearly impossible to reliably dodge. :/ Martyr Logarius was a tough bastard. Solo'd him in the end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 Logarius is tenacious when he gets you off guard. I'm sure I said this earlier in the thread, but I was probably two hits away from finishing him and he walloped me. The next time I got him, but he will stagger you like crazy if you create the opening. I actually beat Rom on my first attempt though. If you face him in a Chalice Dungeon though, he's a bastard because you're in a smaller place and with pillars. If there's one thing I can brag about playing Bloodborne, it's that I can dodge. All the ice and spiders barely touched me, and with my trusty Rifle Spear, those spiders were less difficult. Still a pain no matter how you face them.

Thursday Next Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Finally beat the spider bastard. Didn't call for help either. I didn't enjoy it though. Was just relieved I wouldn't have to fight him again. Amygdala is my next target I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 It seems to me that this game already has you by the amygdala. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomTervo Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 On my first playthrough, I got Rom on my first try On my second playthrough, it took like 7-8 tries. It was insane. Cane really isn't good against him. Tonitrus helps but not that much. He's such a dick and such a pain of a boss. There are a handful of bosses in the game who plain aren't fun and are just a chore. Amygdala is pretty great, though, enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thursday Next Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Just didn't feel like there was a "way" to do it. Took out the babies for stage one, so that I had a clear crack at the mother. For stage two/three (depending on whether I managed to skip stage two), just went hit and run. But it felt scrappy and unsatisfying. Unlike Logarius, who was tough, but with experience and parrying, there was a repeatable system to it. Rom far and away the "worst" boss in the game. Just feel like I got lucky with ice rain and spider jumps. *shrug*. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thursday Next Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 That one's caught me before. If you wait a few more seconds, he walks up to the first troll. Classic Bloodborne mistake of not checking all the angles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thursday Next Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 Amygdala took a little while to click. But once it did, it was a satisfying fight. I'm having a bit of a mare in Yahargul now. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalCaveman Posted May 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 Yahar'gul in New Game+ is the 10th circle of hell... Didn't take long to beat the other areas, but this place is just something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thursday Next Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 I finally got to the second lamp. Respawning enemies is a dick move. The game has spent all this time teaching me to take my time, kite enemies, etc. and now it's telling me I've got to try and blow through as quick as possible. Very frustrating. The first section, where you have to run down the stairs is so tight the number of times I got ganked because I got stuck on a piece of rubble, or couldn't roll between enemies! Ugh! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thursday Next Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Having watched a few videos now of people fighting Ebrietas, it has occured to me that a Vitality stat of 9 may be something of a hinderance. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
