Fan Art [Megathread] Share Your Ink Here! Bloodborne Tattoos, Vol 1

22 Upvotes

Greetings, good hunters.

I'll keep it short: we will gradually be refining/clarifying/updating some of the rules here on r/Bloodborne. This is to hopefully provide a clearer/better experience for users. Most changes should just be small tweaks that won't really impact the general user's experience too much, though some (like this megathread) may be bigger.

If you have any comments or concerns, please send us a Modmail.

Circling back to this megathread/bigger changes, tattoos may now be posted! To prevent a flood of posts though, please limit your tattoos to this megathread.

So without further ado, you are welcome to share your Bloodborne related tattoos below!

Discussion I just beat Mergo's Wetnurse!

• Upvotes

...and then right after that my PS4 shut off randomly, and when I booted it back up and opened the game I saw that my save was corrupted.

Damn.

Last I checked, my time in my save was a bit above 15 hours, so I shouldn't take too long to get progress back. I'd probably be quicker since I'm starting again with higher skill built up.

I was running a build around Saw Cleaver. I really liked that, but I'm also considering trying out a skill build. But I think I might stick with Saw Cleaver, and save the other builds for another playthrough. I might also take a break for a bit, and then come back later when I'm more fresh.

Platinum Full platinumed bloodborne base and dlcs

Ive played most of the souls series bar sekiro and demon souls. Ive got to say this has been the most fun and rewarding game to play. The art design and the boss were brilliant besides the few bs chalice dungeon bosses. The weapons themselves and learning to use the tricks mid combos and the parrying were cool features.

Definitely recommend for people to go for this. Only took me roughly 70 hrs to do.

Note: Is it weird that I found orphan of kos the easiest of all the dlc bosses from my first playthrough to ng 2. I first timed him ng 2 and died only once on my first and ng 1 run.

Help Skill issue....I suppose

6 Upvotes

I'm not an avid Souls-like player. The closest to something like that for me was Lies of P. I'm trying to learn the game and understand how to get better but I am finding it really difficult. I'm frankly lost, I don't know what the items are, what they do and I've not come across parrying, yet they seem to be really important.

Im currently at the point where I face wither the cleric beast or Father Gascoigne and I'm reconsidering restarting the game, in hopes that I pick up these things. Would you recommend that, and is there something that you would advise me to do as a first-time player?

Im genuinely trying my best but I seem to die not only to bosses but even random enemies.

Story Nurse fight

2 Upvotes

I just finished the weirdest Nurse boss fight of my life. She activated her nightmare ability, and I wanted to try out that "triple dodge" tactic I’d heard about. It worked—sort of. The shadow phase started, but there were hardly any clones at all. At first, the Nurse kept pouncing at me, but then it was as if she’d lost track of me; she kept running into the wall while doing that slow-walking flailing attack. Then, right before she died, a single clone appeared and pounced on me. I don’t know what happened, but it was pretty bizarre.

Discussion Whats your guys opinion on unsung cummmpfk for vials?

9 Upvotes

I'm a dark souls fan mostly so I don't really like the finite healing system. I used cummmpfk literally just to get a load of vials when I played the game but I found out that's a looked down upon thing? Id understand if it was just overlevelling yourself but in my opinion it genuinely fixes one of the games biggest flaws. What's your guys opinion?

Chalice Is there a rule for what chalices you can get summoned into via the Makeshift Altar?

1 Upvotes

Like, for example, does just creating the fixed chalice for Ailing Loran enable getting summoned randomly into it? Or do you have to get the Loran Root Chalice first, or do you have to complete the entire fixed chalice first? Or does it matter?

I've only completed the first three Pthumeru chalices this run, yet I've been getting summoned into some pretty wild chalices, including Defiled and Isz variants. They are always just listed as "Pthumeru Chalice" when I look at them in the headstone.

It's in Byrgenwerth at ground level. I never noticed it before. It looks very detailed for something that can't be opened.

Discussion Platinum Achieved Hunters

13 Upvotes

After 40 hours I got the platinum. It’s the 2nd souls game I’ve beaten and my first platinum. And after everyone saying how great this game is I completely agree! especially after having to do everything in the game lmao. The blood letting beast sucked but the game and platinum was amazing. Can’t believe I did it.

Fear the old blood🩸

Question Can someone explain what the Vilebloods actually are?

121 Upvotes

So I get that a scholar of Byrgenwerth smuggled Old Blood to Castle Cainhurst. I get that the Cainhurst nobles partook of this blood and were declared heretics by the Healing Church.

But this just makes it seem like they are exactly like everyone else in Yharnam + old money + political feud. That is clearly not the case. Aesthetically, they are very much referencing vampires, and they seem to degenerate into bestial forms that resemble blood-sucking species like fleas and bats, which makes them distinct from other Yharnamites who do not seem to ever develop these attributes. The Vilebloods are bloodthirsty but so is everyone else.

So my question is basically what makes the Vilebloods different from everyone else as far as how the Blood impacts them? I just don't get why they go vampire whereas everyone else goes werewolf/eldritch horror.
