Thank god! Does this have BL limitation if password used? I am asking because buddy doesn't speak English and my Chinese sucks so it would be really hard to try to explain these to him.

No BL limits for password co-op. Player being summoned will have their stats scaled to the host's level if they're way above the normal summoning range.
So I decided to do the chalice dungeons right at the end of the game...steamrolling through....Lower Pthumerian Level 3 jumps difficulty in such an extreme fashion it was unbelievable to me. Giant rooms with ten of those fireball centipedes and packs of dogs with that witch hat enemy all at the same time...
Continued my journey through Old Yharnam yesterday. Didn't take too long until i arrived at this areas boss, the Blood-starved Beast. Took me a few tries just because i didn't make enough distance between us whenever it exploded its poison everywhere and it ended up grabbing me afterwards. After l made sure to always leave enough distance between us during these phases, evading its other attacks was not that difficult.
After beating it i made my way back to the Cathedral Ward to continue my way from there. As i left i was attacked and killed by a new enemy, the Abductor as i later learned. But instead of respawning at the lamp i was transported somewhere else. I was pretty disoriented and intimidated at first. These Abductors were rooming this area and i was reluctant to take them on after trying for the first time and failing. They pack quite the punch and can take some heat. So i concentrated on scouting the area first.
It didn't take long and i ended up at another boss, Darkbeast Paarl. This one will take me while. It killed me pretty fast with its lightning attacks. Anyway, after scouting the area some more and getting every item i could find, i decided to take on the Abductors again. This time i did much better and i even got one Twin Blood Stone from one of them. I will now farm them for a while and then take on Paarl again.

Did you try to equip them through the weapon slots? It doesn't work if you try from the inventory.
Why? Did you find something better or do not just not like the one you currently use?
edit: Damn, i can't find the lamp from Unseen Village on the headstone. I'm sure i've activated it.
edit 2: ok, found it on another headstone.

What the hell kind of dodge allows you to disappear like that? Sunhi you are the gif freaking master! Haven't played in a couple of days and your gif has gotten me bloodthirsty.
My feelings exactly and I'm currently at the same spot. I tried Rom a few times and was like "yeah this might be a good time for a break because this gonna take a minute...".
So, catching up on the last few pages of posts am I to understand the Nightmare Frontier area is not the DLC?
Another stupid question. What exactly is considered a thrust attack? Is it an attack that starts from running or like a charger attack?
Equip and use the Old Hunter Bone.

Using it while fighting Lady Maria who also has that ability, probably the best boss fight experience I've ever had in a game.

with Bold Hunter's mark you can respawn at your last lamp with all your echos intact, and all mobs respawned iirc. Just make sure it's the Bold Hunter's Mark, and not the Hunter's mark, as the latter sends you to your last lamp, but nulls all your echoes (unrecoverable iirc)
Nightmare Frontier is a late base game area. As regards thrust, I think it any slashing, piercing, thrusting weapon in general. The attack types are either thrust or blunt, so if its got an edge, its thrust. The Kirkhammer is thrust with the sword and blunt with the hammer.
Thank you, how could i forget them. This will help me with the farming of those Twin Blood stones.
I will try my luck with Paarl again and when i don't see progress by tomorrow, i will follow your advice and come back later

Keep in mind that the area you're in is a later game area. You can of course farm there if you like, but its not necessary to progress there immediately, which is why those sack guys are so difficult.
If you're farming the Snatchers for twin shards (a good early source) - take advantage of their aggro animation (with the red glow around them and sound effect) to chain backstab them. Easy kills.
This is gorgeous.
This is gorgeous.
I think that's not always the case necessarily. Ludwig's Holy Blade, in trick mode, deals blunt damage with R1, but thrust with R2. When one handed, R1 deals physical damage and R2 deals thrust. So Physical, Thrust and Blunt constitute each a different damage types and different enemies are weak against one of those 3 and sometimes strong agains others.
Usually an attack that deals thrust damage looks like, well, a thrust, but it's not always that obvious, specially with physical or blunt.
For example the Hunter's Axe R1 attacks are Physical when one handed, but Blunt when transformed, even though they look very much alike (slashing).
Really the only way to know for sure is by looking at the moveset for each weapon in a wiki .

Yeah, one of the better features for brave/determined/skilled players is the ability to do certain areas in a more non-linear fashion. I'm the type that would rather do what's required first. I smashed Paarl to dust when I came back later.
Hello. I beat Rom and I'm currently on Yahar'gul, I was reading some stuff on the internet and I feel like I've missed some things. Specifically, I haven't been on the Lecture Building or on the Nightmare Frontier and apparently there's an optional boss I never fought, Darkbeast Paarl. Should I go to these areas now or I'll naturally progress to them later?
Also, I think I missed some NPCs, the only ones I rescued are Arianna and the corpse eating guy. I guess I can't rescue anyone else anymore?

Paarl is in Yahar'gul, you can get to him earlier in the game, but he's in the area you're in now. The lecture building is later. NF is later.
There is another women in Yahar'gul, though she doesn't speak to me yet. She is in a room below the Hypogean Gaol lamp. Yeah, Paarl is in this area. Can't help with the other stuff as you're much further than me and i came to this place on a completely different way, it seems.
That lady won't be there by the time you return normally, I believe. I missed so many NPC side quests, I can't really help here. Arianna's the important one though.
I don't want to spoil you but she's tied to
the method of getting a secret ending and secret final boss.
Here's the second and first play through I took on Martyr Logarius. 3 years ago. I was awful. then I picked up the game to finally finish it a couple weeks ago. Fight took twice as long and I was on my 11th try like 3 years ago.

Thanks for the responses. I think I get it now.
I also beat Rom finally and am currently getting my ass kicked in Yahar'gul. I got the feeling that I wasn't ready for Nightmare Frontier so I guess I will try to clear Yahar'gul, see where I end up after that, and then do my second chalice dungeon.
lol. I have a collection of screenshots like that. Always due to me being greedy on that last hit. It's like I never learn...I am losing my goddamn mind.
Not even only once. But twice. It happened TWICE.
I don't even have the freaking words.
It's 3am.
I can't seem to beat Eb (Upper Cath). Can't see much of what is happening either even without lock on.
Ebriatas? Try staying in front of her and dodge the tentacle swipes and bait out attacks like the head smash down where you can get damage in on the head (weakspot). When she starts doing the lasers it's easy to outrun them, similar to the ice meteors from Rom. Watch out for the rush forward attack, it has one of those nasty hitboxes like the Watchdog that drags you along, better to lock-off and dodge to the side than through her.
I feel like I lucked out or something, as I got behind her and stayed behind her. I'd get hit occasionally with something(I couldn't see shit either) but I felt like her pronged backside kept me stuck there while she flailed and tried to turn. Definitely the easiest boss for me....strangely enough.
Paarl is no more. Decided to try it one more time, only this time i did not lock on to him at all. Was a weird fight as he only used his lightning bomb one time, even though i stood underneath him for an eternity, just pummeling him. Before, i could get a maximum of two hits in before he would unload on me. The only hairy situations were when he got away from me during his later phase, but i was onto him in no time before he could do some real damage. Whatever, i take it.
Climbed up the Healing Church Workshop there after and the view from up there is just breathtaking. Just stood there for a while, taking it all in. Today i'll explore the shop some more just this time i'll go down.

Wow this is beautiful. So many memories :,-)I am losing my goddamn mind.

Life is good.
Congratulations. Many people consider him the hardest boss of the base game.
I feel like I hear this about every other boss. Read the same when I was trying to find helpful tactics for Father G and BSB, on both the ending remark was "you just beat the hardest boss of the game"
Thanks. Assuming you mean the DLC, I heard the same thing. :P
I think I found Laurence to be tougher though, mostly because with Kos I always felt like I sort of knew what to do, was just hard putting it into action. I couldn't even get Laurence down to his second phase without a co-op partner. Was just stumped.
The level of difficulty varies for people, which I find interesting. One of my friends had loads of trouble with Shadows of Yharnam and Amygdala, both of whom I beat on my first try.
Kos is way harder than all of those, for sure.
Father G and BSB were the hardest ones for me. Someone over at FootyEra said Vicar Amelia was their next wall, and I got it on first try, going in blind (only boss I managed on frist try). I think I died more on Father G and BSB combined than I did on all other bosses together (and I died tons on all other bosses).
But yeah, it's really intersting reading on what peoples toughest bosses are.
After my first playthrough, I just booked it through the Woods as fast as possible to get to the end. On my most recent run, though, I actually took my time again to find all the runes and yeah, it wasn't that bad. It's definitely rough on the first attempt but it's got a lot of potential to grow on a person.
It grew on me when I realized that in one of my first runs through the area, I'd been wandering for about half an hour without dying or seeing a lantern. It was stressful and depressing in the best way.
What I learned about Forbidden Woods was finding the shortcuts makes it a lot more bearable before you beat the boss of the area. Now that I've discovered most of the shortcuts and beat the boss, I feel good about going back there to farm echoes, vials, and bullets.
Quick question. So right now, as far as I know, after beating Rom I have the option of doing the Nightmare Frontier area or Yahar'gul. Any recommendations on which one I should tackle or doesn't even matter? My hunter is currently at lvl 75 I think with 30 Vit, 23 End, 18 Str, 30 Skl, 12 BT, and 12 Arc.

The enemies in Frontier should be quite easy to deal with right now, the problem is exploring the place, I would recommend it.
Wow! Looks like I'm at an impasse, I've not seen anything like it in a souls game, a one hit kill boss. I have 31 vitality and it does one spin attack which is really difficult to avoid and its full health to nothing, I died. Its an Undead Giant in a chalice I guess these chalice dungeons are shit, like wtf, do they not play test this, is there not some trick to it.
