Personally I'd do it before Mergo. The doll has a few lines of dialogue relating to the DLC, that you won't get if the Dream is in its end state. Not a big deal though.
I have Whirlgig as my first weapon in my playtrhough atm as well, and I just used Tonitrus on Rom, beat it on my second try.
And often, the better anti poison stuff is deep in that area, and sometimes after that.
If you're fast enough you can actually quit to main menu before the ending cutscene plays. That throws you out of the final boss area so that you can get the ending at your own leisure.
Depends how good your gems are. Probably not over leveled tho
You didn't enter the DLC in NG+? Do it, that's really the perfect (challenging) difficulty.
I used the saw cleaver on my BL4, the transform attack rips through Amelia, plus fire paper and BBP - there really wasn't much difference for me from a regular run with her because of that. I did her as late as possible though so I could upgrade my weapon as high as I could to that point (6+ I guess?)
I had the same experience on my last playthrough. I couldn't remember much about the dungeons except a few set pieces, and I was on edge at all times. Playing the main game wasn't stressful because I had so much memorised.
The infamous Undead Giant, most unfair boss in Bloodborne. Just search for one of the dozen topics about that unfair roadblock of a boss.
She is the final boss of the Chalice Dungeons (you can keep making dungeons, but she is the end boss of the static ones).
No, they're the guys that sometimes have cannons on their back. The boss version has the annoying followup attack with chains.
Oh okay, maybe I was overpowered when I ran into them and that's why I don't remember them.
Nah, they're an easy boss and not memorable. I only remember because I died to the chains a few times.
