zombiesateme Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Does your bloodtinge lvl affect your ability to stagger enemies? I'm trying to kill the boss in Cainhurst and using an upgraded Ludwig's rifle and only managed to stagger him once. My rifle is +7 but my bloodtinge is only 9.

Happy Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 (edited) Bloodtinge exclusively affects damage to my knowledge. If you can't stagger him your timing's the problem. Edited February 14, 2017 by Happy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombiesateme Posted February 14, 2017 Author Share Posted February 14, 2017 would it be better to use a pistol then for range so I don't have to be close to hit him? My problem is trying to get close to stagger him but I get pummeled by AOE attacks before I have a chance to do anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eylside Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 u wont stagger with the pistol, the pistol is a parry gun. if u want to stagger try the blunderbuss, but i would recommend u the pistol or the evelyn. the speed and range of those guns is pretty good.

zombiesateme Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 What is a good combination against Gerhman? Should I try to parry or stagger him? My STR is 50 VIT is 45 and END is 44 and he is still killing me and my strategy is just to get 1-2 hits and get away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zombiesateme Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 Ludwig's Holy Blade +10 and trying to figure out if I should use Ludwig's rifle of the hunters pistol. My BT isn't high enough for Evelyn and I'm wearing a full suit of Cainhurst armor for DEF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eylside Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 ludwigs is a quality weapon. it gets bonus dmg from strength and skill. boost your skill stat if u can, for the fight with gherman idk what to say. just play as aggresive as u can and only try to parry what u can. he is one of the bosses where u can parry almost everything u just need to get the timing right. for now just try to parry his charge atack and his 1 handed spam atack. its an atack where he just swings blindly its very easy to parry. but what i see right now is u didnt do the dlc. maybe u should do it first. everything gets harder on ng+ so its best to do it now otherwise u will fight against even harder bosses.

zombiesateme Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 Finally managed to kill him. Using the thrust attack helped since I only got one visceral in. Still going to grind a few more lvl's before going for the secret ending. Once the phase begins where Gehrman has the aura around him is he still able to be staggered or just parried?

Eylside Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 u can still parry him, but i dont think u can backstab him. try going for more skill. parrying is so much more rewarding on a skill build. u get like twice as much dmg. i get with 50 skill and a 30% rune 4k dmg wich is rly nice.
