    How far along you are is a little subjective since a lot of the game is optional.

    Looks like they improved the loading times today. The game is a lot more enjoyable for those of us still getting our ? kicked. I'm at the Cainhurst boss now, and this dude is spamming AOE attacks that all ? me in one hit, WTF?

    Bolt paper+ threaded cane works wonders

    Fire paper+anything works well too.

    Just rush him, attack n dodge his scythe attack

    Yeah, I did some grinding so I could buy Bolt paper. I'll give that a try. I figured out how to beat him, and if he only did the scythe when I get close he'd be easy. My problem is that he frequently pulls off that back dash into an explosive skull. It always manages to hit me at least once, and I can't survive it even with full life.
    Parry and visceral attack his sky attacks. Cake.

    Don't waste your money buying those items. You shouldn't really need to use any of them throughout the whole game unless you just want to play around w/ them. You can buy them w/ Insight at your home spot which is a lot cheaper than the echos imo. I waited until I had 99 Insight and used those instead of echos to buy the expensive non-essential items.

    lol Yeah do kinda need to use them, because I don't take off much life. Bolt paper is the difference between a boss fight taking half an hour and it taking 15 - 20 mins for me. Besides, I always have a ? load of echoes since I don't use them to level up.

    The bosses probably ain't as hard as I make them seem. It's just that everything kills me so easily so it's frustrating at times. Like with the boss I mention, I played him again and basically beat his ass without getting hit down til he was at about half life. Then he started charging up. I ran about half a screen away thinking I was safe for the big attack I knew was coming. It came and hit me even at that distance and killed me at full life. So basically, if you're running a relatively low level character blind, you're going to get killed sometimes and there's not always anything you can do about it.

    first part is when you dodge his magic skulls and hit him

    second part is when he gets angry and pursue you. use the gun that shoot two bullets to stun him then hit him with a visceral attack

    Yeah I figured it out. Like I said, it just takes me a lot of tries because every mistake I make means death.

    Thanks for the tip about the Repeating Revolver though. If I can't beat him my standard way, I might resort to using that.

    I'm man handling enemies @ level 172 on NG++ so you definitely shouldn't have problem @ 203.

    Finished Pthumeru, Central Pthumeru, and Lower Pthumeru Chalices. About level 107.

    I'm gonna skip right to the Loran Chalices tonight. Bad idea @LEMZPOCALYPSE?

    Use them as a level up zone

    Go back to hunters dream and all the Cahill runes that give you a blood echoes bonus then take two days upgrading.

    Raise tbat life bar to 1500 cause once you get to the vicious chalice your life bar is reduced by half plus its a level 5 zone with bosses and ennemies that ? you in 2 hits.

    If youd d9nt have them get that ludwig sword its more powerfull rangefulll and deadly than it appears especially if your magic level is high ( near 20).
    Get that whip too

    In a nutshell train for that vicious chalice

    This game is getting repetitive. I put it down for 2 weeks (i'm in the Yrahham woods) This game is not that hard and uses most players impatience against them. I was slashing through the forest had 100,000 blood things and my impatience got me killed by the damn big ass warthog. I will flip this overrated game tonight. Might be hard for a casual gamer.....meh

    The game isn't for everyone and it's certainly fair to not like it, but what you're saying doesn't make a lot of sense. Can you describe something you consider repetitive? If you're dying a lot, then the game is hard even if your own impatience is the reason you're dying. If you're still in the woods, you're likely not even that far in the game, so it kinda just makes it seem like you're not that good at the game and making a bunch of excuses.

    I'm actually not dying a lot. I just slashed through the woods like nothing and noticed how repetitive the game is. Its not a bad game, but its not hard as people make it out to be. Just have patience and you can flip this game pretty fast. Yes I am in the woods, i'm probably 45-50 percent done with the game. There is a reason some dude flipped the game in 44 minutes with out leveling up. I expect more from ps4, these games have been a let down

    The reason you can beat the game in 44 minutes is because a lot of the content is optional and can be skipped. That's not a matter of difficulty. If you're just in the woods, you're only 50% done with the game if you skipping half the content and completely ignoring chalice dungeons.

    Also, I still want to know what you mean by the game is repetitive. As far as I've seen, it's not any more repetitive than any other action RPG/adventure game.
