Thanks for the advise. That was pretty much what I was trying to do. Take out the little spiders, damage as much as I can before the teleport - rinse and repeat. The 2nd phase I take out the little guys and try to watch for Rom to stand up so I know I will need to roll. I’ve tried with the beast pellets and fire paper. I’ve tried the tonitrus, hunters ax, and the holy sword. I’ve tried with and without the NPC summons.
On a good note, while I was grinding for some leveling I realized I hadn’t beat Darkbeast Paarl, who I encountered earlier and lost. I went back and beat it. I think I’m up to level 48 now, so hopefully I can try Rom again later today. I’ve been leveling up health, endurance and some strength.
Wow, Yahargul Chapel really kicks it up a notch. Getting triple teamed by a guy with a chain and his friends. They seem to be resistant to my damage or just have a lot of HP. Need to see what my damage numbers say. They are tough though.
I was briefly in the Research Hall and went to a particular place in there and ended up in the next area. I must have missed quite a bit. I may be a little further than you unless you have been where I am already. I’m not sure if there are optional areas that I missed.
I don’t have the DLC. While I do like Bloodborne, I think if I want to play more of this type of thing I may want to replay Dark Souls 1 through 3. I never played the DS3 DLC yet either. I also have The Surge that I need to play. That will seem easy peasy after this I think.
Aside from Dark Souls 1, none of those games are as good as the Bloodborne DLC. Anyway, if you don’t have the DLC you weren’t in the Research Hall. You’re probably thinking of the Lecture Building.
On a side note, I’ve pretty much stopped using my firearm since the beginning of the game. For most things it seems easier to just whale on them and dodge when necessary. Parrying with the firearm is so much more difficult.
Micolash will no longer haunt my nightmares, may he rest in peace and escape his madness.
He was time consuming for me, because on my first several failures I would drain a lot of healing potions. So then I would need to grind for some blood and potions for my next attempt.
Love the Micolash fight. Or some say Micolashm. The voice actor does a great job and the way you kind of break out of the boss room into more boss room is really cool. And of course, “I’ll forget everything” is a wonderful and tragic last line, as he thinks he’s about to wake up instead of dying.
