You have to beat many more than 5, but yeah, the BB platinum is probably one of the easiest. You can get everything in a single play through if you do a little save exploiting.

Ya, if you already beat the game then you will have to get to the end again for the last two endings. Other than that it takes quite awhile to get through the chalice dungeons for the queen trophy but the rest aren't bad

The chalice one? I'm pretty sure I had over 40 vit and the charge still was a one shot.
Yeah, the defiled chalice one. I had 40 vit and getting hit by the charge left me with 10-15% hp. I wore the charred armor and whatever hat had the highest fire resist too; not sure if that made a difference because damage types in the game are somewhat inconsistent.

Pretty sure I tried fire gear too, didn't make a difference. If that charge wasn't a one shot I would have beat him in the first few tries. It pissed me off when I was on his side and he charged straight past me and it would still kill me

Maybe they patched his charge tell. It was always plenty of warning and super obvious when I beat him a few days ago.

It was obvious, but takes a few tries for most people to get the timing from what I've seen - too early or too late and you're screwed.

Hitboxes in this game in general are fairly inconsistent. Not as bad as DS2, but then the combat is much more measured so you don't notice it as much. The auto tracking attacks that re-adjust also magnify that somewhat. I think most of the weapon imbalances in this game could be fixed by tweaking those a bit (or enlarging the reach of some of the less frequently used weapons).

I agree.

This has been one of my favorites games so far though. They really nailed most of it.

Finally playing this game again. 3 hours in and I'm up to Father Gascoigne. I picked the chain sword weapon as my starter and have been upgrading it ever since. Do you guys recommend using something else? I'm trying to do every single thing haha.

All of the weapons are pretty much usable. Certain ones are better for certain encounters, but they can all be used. You will have enough materials to upgrade them all to +9 by the end if you want, just make sure you like the weapon you want to get to +10 because that upgrade mat is very limited.

Some notable ones:

. When starting co-op in a chalice dungeon, you will now spawn in the lantern room.
. Depth 5: Blood Stone Chunk and Blood Rock (Rare) drops added
. Blood chunk can be purchased for 30 insight
. By using password matching, you can now be matched regardless of level difference, and even with a hostile oath.

The starter weapons are all good, just depends which moveset you enjoy the most. I will say the cleaver scales really good and will easily last the entire regular game. After that if you pick up a weapon that scales well and you like the moveset, you can move to that. A lot of people really enjoy Ludwig's sword

Nice changes, didn't see a single change that was bad.
