Bloodborne: the official thread

CraddocAtTwitch is a player that has managed to beat most of the major Bloodborne bosses while at the lowest possible level in the game, without healing, and without guns. Really.

....now do I take a left or a right at the Grand Cathedral?

Left is optional area if I'm not mistaken, but you get something important.
Right is also very important way to go. But it was a challenge, at least for me.

Left is not optional. It leads to Hemwick Charnel Lane. Right is the optional one (depending on what happens to you after you fight The One Reborn), but it is recommended to at least go kill the 2 hunters there in case you need to go that way later.

Which cave are talking about? I don't remember there being one there. IIRC once you turn left in front of the Great Cathedral you follow a little path and then it comes to sort of an open forest type area with a bunch of dogs and guys shooting at you as well as a couple of nasty enemies that spawn in when you approach certain places. This forest area then leads to Hemwick Charnel Lane.

If you're a strength based build I would highly suggest against that. This is not like Dark Souls where it adds fire to your weapon, it will remove the strength scaling and make it a pure fire (arcane I think?) based weapon.

But I would suggest the following in your current posistion:
Spoiler: show
1. Turn right at Great Cathedral down to the two hunters and kill them.
2. Get Henryk's armour set. The one hunter you just fought with the lightning.
3. Henryk's garb is high in lightning defence, use that when fighting Darkbeast Paarl.
4. Once defeated, progress past the boss area, not the way you came!

The fire damage may be more, but your skillset may not be suited for it and thus end up doing less damage. But yeah, let's see your skills ;)

Right! Here's what I'm working with....

See, like me you're more of a strength build. You're not going to benefit from making your weapon fire based, which scales with Bloodtinge/Arcane (can't remember which) and are your lowest stats.

Yeah lately when it comes to lvling I'm torn between strength, endurance and skill. And at some stage I should probably start pushing up my vitality as well...
