So I uh am alting again...

Tonight I rolled Faller. (Term for guy who cuts down trees on west coast) He has a burly beard and scraggly hair. He is very burly. Faller will use the hunters axe and only the hunter axe + Blunderbuss. He will invest in only strength, Vit, and End. That's all Faller needs. He will waste no echos on trivial items.

Faller beat down the first werewolf with his bare fists. He chose to die in town only because he wanted to. *Spits chaw.

It's just kinda how I play these games.I took my first DS character right to the last boss but did not beat him because I wanted to extend the experience. 4 nearly complete character runs later I went back and beat the game with my first guy. I just did nearly the same thing with my DeS run. Except I only took the NG+ plunge on my Templar, and did not get time to go back and do it on my Hunter and Royal because Bloodborne came out.

I love making new concept characters. Running through stuff I already know fast and clean, pushing a bit further, maybe going back to work on a different character on a whim. That's my favorite stage of these games. I mean once a character is level 150-200+ you are the stronger version of milktoast. Can do just about anything. That can be fun in it's own way later but not as fun as making concept builds is to me.

Just had time to watch the video. Good stuff, matter of fact I was planning my next alt to do the early Eileen murder to BoM on a pure skill no split build.

Some thoughts on my characters so far:

1) STR/ARC split. Seems ok at first but they all do. Splitting like that left me feeling like I needed more VIT/END near midgame. I'm sure it works great at later levels and could be ground out to fix.

2)SKILL/BT split: Even going higher in BT without Chikage your relying on Skill for your melee weapon. Reiter and Evelyn are both cool but it starts becoming very consumable dependent. Can't fire guns as much as it would be fun too. Ditto above about VIT/END and it probably being great later with enough levels.

3)Current: STR no split: K.I.S.S. build, no reliance on consumables, Excellent power with Axe, lots of points left to spend on VIT/END. Seems good so far. For me it may be smarter to start like this, then split to a secondary once I am hitting soft caps.

4)Future SKILL no split: Plan is to get BoM and pump Vit/End with Skill same as above. At higher levels then maybe split to BT some to play with the cool guns.

You going to try and kill Logarius early to get the Chikage on that BT build?

Every since I fell in love with quality str/dex builds in DS1 I can't resist the notion that I am going to make quality style builds for everything! I'm no where near good enough at Bloodborne to pull it off early though. I'll revisit it in the future after my focused builds though I am sure.

Sounds fun just keep in mind Reiter scales off skill and you will run out of ash and bullets. On the other hand if you pull it off I can totally do that on my second toon because he is mostly BT not to overly into skill yet.

*edit to say: Soloed Blood Starved Beast All Melee did not even need one antidote the whole fight. Killed the Witch. Gonna Go get snatched so I can get my Axe to +6 (Its +4). Love this focused strength build so far. *Cough I mean to say "Faller has a quota of beasts to cut down for each day" he is always ahead of schedule. *drinks whiskey

With Blood Bullets, I'm not too worried about it. Will probably need to put a bit into skill, but I think I can more or less use mostly guns for bosses.

I found a nifty magic item that lets me turn 6 bullets into a bolt of electricity. Thus far seems useless. Also found a magic item that shoots blood skulls for three bullets. Haven't tested it.

Several new chalice bosses down. Only recorded one. Also downed Rom, the Vacuous Spider. I attempted to make Kao proud and burn the little spiders to death with the flame sprayer, but no luck. Vids are uploading now.

Good thing it only takes about two hours to get to the shadows of yharnam fight. I got the short cut in the building probably missing one. First try I did get them 2 dead 1 to 30% though. **** snakes anyway.

Awesome thanks. I'll look for it later tonight. It's gorgeous here today so I am going for a walk in the sun but so far from the design I knew it really could not be that long. Forrest is kinda crazy though, really tries to mess with your brain with all the optional directions.

Vitamin D bro. Also I showed your Amelia kill to one of my co-workers. He thought it was amazing, Might have a new convert soon.

Blasting Papa G with a cannon would be hilarious. Make it happen!

Faller has no strong feelings about shadows. If shadows need cutting down Faller will cut them. (Shadows down)

SunlightBlade put out the first Top 10 BB kills. Some bosses, some PvP. All fairly entertaining. Nerf pebbles.
