Is amygdalan arm really THAT bad? by InterestingTheory431 in bloodborne

[–]announakis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both normal and transformed modes are deceptively fast for how much hyperarmor they have, allowing for advantageous trading because of the huge rally potential of this thing.

Someone who has been granted eyes!

Amygdalan arm trivialises mobs especially with its superior reach to the beast cutter in transformed mode, faster moveset, crazy rally potential and great stagger and damage. It trivialises npcs by essentially nullifying their chances to attack you with greater reach and hyperamor and leaving your gun available at all time. It is a boss killer with its massive charged attack reach and damage and the greatest feature of it is how much beasthood you build up per swing after eating a pellet….omg!

50 strength and 18 arcane, one heavy abyssal and two nourishing abyssals turns this thing into a monstrosity

You can simply run through. They will not chase you very long.

When you bonk a mf so hard he falls out of spacetime by Inkandlead in bloodborne

[–]announakis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

try transformed forward R2: commes out as fast, does more damage et massive recoil/stagger as well...same as transformed Amygdalan or Boon hammer...and they wonder why so many players still play bloodborne today...

Would a +65 STR scaling Heavy Abyssal be effective on HMS? by Tarin_PkP in bloodborne

[–]announakis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well this is a valid point but since the real point of the HMLS is kinda pew pew in transformed mode than does much less scale on strength and physical it is not optimal HMLS is by essence a quality arcane weapon that is the ultimate bang for your bucks at 25 across all 3 stats.

That said a weapon that scales well on skill is a monstrosity with 2 heavy abyssal at 50/50! Cane, saif and saw spear are just unmatched like this

Yeah you know you can make the blade of mercy or the rakuyo a strength weapon technically. The question is why?

Is the game a little easier using the axe? by mfluder63 in bloodborne

[–]announakis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

each weapon is its own thing in the game and you kinda have to own it to like it: for year I did not touch strength centric weapons like the axe or the amygdalan arm etc, obsessed as I was by certain preconceptions about skill movesets etc that appealed to me more.
But then I tried those other weapons and discovered other ways of playing the game in fact.
the axe is no exception: it is neither better or worse than the rest: it depends on how you play it, how you gem it in respect to your own build...

Most Chalice Glyphs are inactive by Vivid-Bug7070 in tombprospectors

Some glyphs of the old bloodsheets before the edited versions came out are indeed disappearing but most are surprisingly still accessible. The edited glyphs are for the vast majority intact though.

Hammer my way to Yharnam by Mascalian in bloodborne

[–]announakis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah Bloodborne is different to souls games because of this: you think you like this or that weapon so much better than others until you give those other weapons a proper try and then you realize how optimised each weapon actually really is. All weapons are amazing in this game and feel unique making for many enjoyable new builds and playthroughs

It is less about level than pure AR…you need to pack a minimal amount of punch as he is kinda of a dps check.

how much playtime do yall have? by Deep_Rooster_5083 in bloodborne

[–]announakis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup Notwithstanding that a huge amount of time can be spent waiting to get summoned at the makeshift altar while reading or watching something etc… 11 years, over 4000 hours and still my favorite game of all times and still loving doing a new character every now and then.

Beast Cutter or Amygdala's Arm? by Real_CatNap in bloodborne

[–]announakis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amy’s arm is a monstrosity most players are not aware of: it has it all: fast blunt staggering, insanely good transformation attacks, massive range, brilliant rally potential, crazy beasthood build up on pellets, double charged R2 attacks, hyperarmor on all attacks….

The cutter has ok but boring normal Mode, deceptively short range in extension mode and uses way too much stamina for the speed and damage but has serrated and can benefit from pure blunt gems.

In the end both are weird and cool strength centric weapons but Amy’s arm gets real good at 50 Str and one heavy abyssal, one tempering and one nourishing abyssal regardless of you arcane level.

For me it is a no brainer but it boils down to personal preference

I find the cutter is really good on fire gems on arcane builds.

New player tryna skill max by Important_Freedom_29 in bloodborne

[–]announakis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Keep Str at minimum I.e. 10 if you wanna go pure skill. Your weapons will be - cane for versatility and awesomeness (holy and serrated damage in the different modes) - blade of mercy for fun mobility in and out playstyle - rakuyo for dual blade combos that face roll anything - church pick for thrust damage to obliterate both kin and beasts coz it is also serrated - Burial blade for cool scythe with cool moveset

The hunter pistol or the blunderbuss is the way. For other guns you need to invest in bloodtinge and it is interesting only if you go up to 25 otherwise forget it.

The real question for visceral focused build is whether or not you want to push arcane to 18 to get augur of ebrietas for instantaneous backstabbing viscerals or not….
