Basic Information

You can equip two primary weapons at once. Only one will be available at any given time, but pressing RIGHT will allow you to swap. Try to select two weapons that match your character's stats and complement each other; for example, you may choose a quick close-range weapon and a slow weapon that has more reach.

Rally: Rally is a mechanic which allows the player to regain lost HP after taking damage. Most attacks multiply the rally number by their attack damage multiplier. Some of them are special-cased to have a different amount of rally (e.g. Logarius' Wheel multi-hit attacks).

Weapon variant considerations: Due to most gems being available in only specific shape, picking up a variant with correct slots can save your upgrade materials and time for farming out-of-shape gems. Generally it depends on the setup you’re going to make.

Physical damage setups (tempering, fools, poormans, striking): always pick up a weapon with radial-radial-triangle slot combination. Waning slots should be avoided since best physical gems never have waning as their native shape which means you will have to settle with weaker gems. Note that starting saw cleaver and saw spear have radial-radial-waning slots so you would want to replace them with uncanny variants as soon as you gain access to chalice dungeons. The only reason to use a weapon with a waning slot is if you’re going to use three labyrinth madman gems, in this case pick up radial-radial-waning weapon variant.

Elemental conversion (arcane builds): here best setups are different depending on which element are you using and if you have access to edited dungeons. Fire and Bolt converted weapons require a waning slot for corresponding elemental abyssal gem; two remaining slots are filled with cold abyssals. If you have access to edited glyphs it is highly recommended to grab a variant with radial-radial-waning slots because edited Pthumeru chalices feature Pthumerian Elder in an oil pool arena which makes farming him on arcane build much easier. Without access to edited glyphs, it is recommended to pick up a lost variant (radial-triangle-waning slots): since Ihyll secondaries are useless on elemental weapons, getting a cold abyssal from Isz which has better drop rate for elemental secondaries will increase your weapon AR in a bit. Arcane conversion requires a triangle slot for Arcane Abyssal; two remaining slots don’t matter if you don’t have access to edited dungeons since neither Pthumeru nor Loran drop arcane secondaries and you will have to settle with some random secondaries. With edited dungeons, picking a radial-radial-triangle variant is advised for easier farm.

Kos Parasite has its own separate gem considerations: generally it wants a triangle slot for an arcane abyssal; filling remaining slots is difficult without edited dungeon access and usually done with gems dropped by npc hunters from Isz (either radials from bone ash hunter or waning from queen killer). Alternatively, brainsucker gems can be used with uncanny variant to maximize L2 explosion attack damage. Edited dungeons provide access to labyrinth madman arc+flat arc gems which can work with normal variant or lost variant (when paired with arcane abyssal).

Elemental conversion (low BL twinks/mules): with only base investments offensive stats, you will mostly rely on flat AR increase bonuses. The highest flat bonuses come as +arc secondaries from gems dropped by brainsuckers which appear in Isz and Pthumeru; for their gems pick up a weapon with radial-radial-triangle slots. Another option with high flat bonus comes from Loran Cleric gems which have high flat Fire secondary. Unfortunately this enemy only appears in Loran, so you’ll have to farm out-of-shape gems if you want full setup; in this case it is recommended to farm them first and then use whichever variant they are fitting in.

Nourishing setups (strength/arcane or skill/arcane builds): weapons with split damage benefit from Nourishing abyssals from Amygdala. Unfortunately this boss isn’t found in Pthumeru Ihyll which severely limits options for radial nourishing gems; for this reason, picking Lost variant is advisable since it only has one radial slot. If you are fine with slightly weaker options, gargoyles are the easiest source of radial nourishing gems. Alternatively, with access to edited dungeons, nourishing/fools nourishing gems from Labyrinth Madman can be used; these gems require a radial-radial-waning variant. Nourishing gems from Merciless Watchers boss are another possibility for which you want to use a radial-radial-triangle variant, but along with nourishing Madman gems, these are very rare, so be prepared to spend a long time farming. The last unique case is Logarius’ wheel which benefits from nourishing brainsucker gems; pick an uncanny variant for such setup.

Poison setups (dirty/murky): without access to edited glyphs, poison gems in radial shape are mostly limited to purple aura scorpions (dirty) and rats/dogs/spiders (murky) from Pthumeru dungeons. Alternatively, bone ash hunters in Loran an Isz can be farmed for a low chance to drop these; loran has slightly better chances. Thus, radial-radial-waning variant is advisable. Access to edited dungeons allows you to farm Merciless Watchers with hintertomb gem pool for top-tier poison gems, which require radial-radial-triangle variant.

Bloodtinge setups: since the only natural shape for bloodtinge gems is circle, you will have to farm a set of out-of-shape gems which will dictate your eventual weapon variant choice. For Chikage, you can grab a Lost variant and use a bloodtinge circle and two tempering radials before you farm a set of bloodtinge gems.

In the retail build of Bloodborne, Mergo's Wet Nurse is introduced in a short cutscene in which the Wet Nurse drops out of the sky, covers the pram containing Mergo with her wings, then adopts a combat stance. Through data-mining and game modification, Lance McDonald has partially restored earlier versions of the Wet Nurse's introduction, which can be seen in video form here.

Early Cutscene One





In this sequence, the player character is animated walking toward the pram containing Mergo and looking inside. While their back is turned, the Wet Nurse appears behind them, and they jump out of the way. The Wet Nurse then reaches inside the pram, picks up Mergo - who is invisible, as in the retail build - and holds him to her chest while she turns away from the player character. She then turns to face the player character and adopts a combat stance. Mergo's fate is unclear. The animation and angle of the player character walking toward the pram was used in some promotional trailers.

Early Cutscene Two





This cutscene has improved lighting and uses almost identical animations and angles to Cutscene One, with some minor differences in the timing of the Wet Nurse and player character's movements. There is, however, a major difference in terms of the graphical effects used, and these provide more context for the Wet Nurse's actions. When the Wet Nurse holds Mergo to her chest, a dark flame effect engulfs her, suggesting that Mergo has has somehow been absorbed into the Wet Nurse and become the source of her powers during the subsequent fight.

Early Cutscene Three




This is a truncated version of Cutscene Two, using slightly different angles and animation timing. The Wet Nurse appears immediately behind the player character as they inspect the pram, and the player character jumping out of the way is no longer shown. The Wet Nurse holds Mergo to her chest while leaning over the pram, then stands up as the dark flame appears as in Cutscene Two. She then turns to face the player character.

Early Cutscene Four



This cutscene is even more truncated than Cutscene Three, and more closely resembles the Wet Nurse's introduction in the retail release. The player character is shown walking toward the pram, and the Wet Nurse immediately drops out of the sky, covering the pram with her body. Unlike the descent she performs in the retail build, this is more of a pouncing move, and the impact leaves her almost flat on the ground. The implied absorbtion of Mergo and the dark flames do not feature, and the Wet Nurse immediately adopts her combat stance.

Comparison

This image shows a comparison of key moments in all four cutscenes: The player character walking toward Mergo's pram, the appearance of the Wet Nurse, the Wet Nurse absorbing Mergo, and the Wet Nurse's combat stance.

Basic Information

The 2015 Tokyo Game Show build of Bloodborne was released to the public in early 2021. The maps can be explored in the same way as the retail build, but only the Central Yharnam map is included. This section will list the differences between the two versions.

Iosefka's Clinic


The graveyard connecting to Forbidden Woods is entirely different, and deleting the ground reveals the original, sloped passage. This terminates abruptly, as the Forbidden Woods map is not included in this build.

The courtyard with the Brainsucker in it that conencts to the roof is entirely absent, and covered up using a low-poly model when seen from a distance.		Two gaps are present in the barrier around the Clinic's upper walkways.

The Celestials and the partially-transformed Celestial corpse are not present. The chest containing Communion is also absent. The unused Old Woman is present out of bounds, rather than loading in the corridor.

Central Yharnam


Gilbert's window is not present, and there are two Warp Chairs loaded. The gate is operated using a lever. The path below has a crashed carriage at the end, rather than the rubble with the sleeping huntsman.

Barriers are placed to prevent the Tokyo Game Show players from entering the dry docks and aqueduct area leading to Oedon Chapel.



Unused enemy placements not present in the retail build. Note that some enemies present in the retail build, like the Large Huntsmen in the aqueduct, do not appear at all.

The dry docks do not feature any snipers, only Carrion Crows and Drowned Corpses.

Eileen is not present, and Gascoigne's house does not have a window.		The path to Tomb of Oedon lacks detail, and the Mad One does not appear. The Mad One from Iosefka's Clinic is also mising.

Other changes: A second unused cannon overlooks the Great Bridge (unlike the other, there is nobody to fire it); the end of the sewer leading to Tomb of Oedon is different; there is no corpse with the Hunter Set; the corpse with the Bold Hunter's Mark in the pile of statues is not present.

Tomb of Oedon


Gascoigne loads on the opposite side of the arena, overlapping a tombstone. A corpse is present where Viola's is in the retail, but is not the same corpse. The path leading to Oedon Chapel appears to be operated using a lever.

The passage leading to Oedon Chapel is entirely different, with a long staircase and stone passage instead of the ladder and study area. The spiral stairs are there as in the retail, but terminate abruptly as the Cathedral Ward map is not included in this build.

Doll Alpha Version (Unused Dialogue and Alternate Voice Actress)

Introduction

In the retail build of Bloodborne, the Doll is voiced by Evetta Muradasilova, who also voices Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower, and previously voiced The Maiden in Black in Demon's Souls.

In earlier builds of the game, however, the Doll's voice was provided by Lucy Briggs-Owen, who currently voices Impostor Iosefka, Adella, and Vicar Amelia, as well as providing the vocal sounds made by the female player character. The Doll's dialogue was also different, being less comforting and repeatedly referring to the player character as suffering from an illness - a concept present in earlier drafts of the story that is no longer present in the retail version.

This unused voice track and script have been partially recovered from a pre-released version of Bloodborne by Lance McDonald, and are demonstrated in this video. Like many prior games by From Software, Bloodborne was released in Japan with an English dub and Japanese subtitles, meaning that this early version of the Doll, while she speaks English, does not have finalised English subtitles.

First Encounter

Retail Version	Restored Alpha Version
Hello, good hunter. I am a doll, here in this dream to look after you.	Hello, ailing one. This is a nightmare, a dream of the sick, of those on death's doorstep.
Honourable hunter, pursue the echoes of blood, and I will channel them into your strength.	Minds ravaged by disease, still clinging to life, this is where they come. Does that not describe yourself? Dead, but with renewed life in this nightmare? Or perhaps your life before was the bad dream? Who can recall? Madness is, after all, a fog.
You will hunt beasts... and I will be here for you, to embolden your sickly spirit.	Ailing one, pursue a deeper madness, and I will make it your medicine.

Further Interaction

Retail Version	Restored Alpha Version
Ahh, the little ones, inhabitants of the dream... They find hunters like yourself, worship, and serve them. Speak words, they do not, but still, aren't they sweet?	The tiny ones are dwellers of this dream. They serve you, in admiration of the sick ones. They cannot speak, but are so very quaint.

Leveling Up

Retail Version	Restored Alpha Version
Very well, let the echoes become your strength. Let me stand close. Now, shut your eyes...	Now, let madness be your medicine. Let me stand close. Don't peep...

Departure

Retail Version	Restored Alpha Version
Farewell, good hunter. May you find your worth in the waking world.	Goodbye, ailing one. May you wake without harm.

Return

Retail Version	Restored Alpha Version
Welcome home, good hunter. What is it your desire?	Hello again, ailing one. How did you find the waking world?

Interaction after Evening

Retail Version	Restored Alpha Version
Over time, countless hunters have visited this dream. The graves here stand in their memory. It all seems so long ago, now...	Most visitors to this nightmare have died. The remains of their spirits sleep within these tombstones. It also seems so long ago, now...

Interaction after Night

Retail Version	Restored Alpha Version
Hunters have told me about the church. About the gods, and their love. But... do the gods love their creations? I am a doll, created by you humans. Would you ever think to love me? Of course... I do love you. Isn't that how you've made me?	What you say is rather strange. The Gods dote not upon their creation. I am a doll, created by you humans. Why should you bestow love upon me? Of course, I do love you. For that is how you have made me.

Handing over the Hair Ornament

Retail Version	Restored Alpha Version
What... what is this? I-I can't remember, not a thing, only... I feel... A yearning... something I've never felt before... What's happening to me? Ahh... Tell me hunter, could this be joy?	What, w- what is this? I can't remember, not a thing. Only, I feel.. a yearning. Something I've never felt before. What's happening to me? Oh! I thank you again, ailing one. That was most pleasant.

Unused "death" Dialogue

In addition to the above, the Doll also has dialogue used in the event of her death, like other NPCs. In the retail version of the game, the Doll cannot ever "die" - reducing her to zero hit points causes her to collapse, but she will appear alive again once the Hunter's Dream is revisisted, provided the player has at least on Insight. However, there exists an unused feature that allows the Doll to remain dead, with her body lying at the foot of the stairs. The inanimate body can still be used to level up, but will not come back to life even if the player has the required Insight. It is unknown if it was possible to revive her after this, or if she remained permanently dead until the next New Game cycle.

Retail Version (Unused)	Restored Alpha Version
Oh, good hunter, I must have displeased you... Go on, shut me down... Even so, this vessel will remain in your service... So, have no fear...	I must have displeased you. Go on, dispose of me. Even so, this vessel will remain in your service... So, have no fear...

Basic Information

Introduction

An early prototype of Bloodborne's map features a significant area that was removed entirely in subsequent builds. This video on Sinclair Lore hypothesises how the area may have worked and what may have happened to it during development, using prototype maps and concept art as evidence. The area's official name is unknown, but some concept art which potentially depicts it uses the name "The Land of the Dragon".

Details

This prototype map, datamined from a pre-retail build, features a large mountainous area behind the Grand Cathedral - a space that, in the retail release, is completely empty. As it has no equivalent in the retail release, labels have been added to help contextualise its position.

A: The back of the Grand Cathedral, above where the Altar of Despair is now.

B: A bridge over a chasm in the mountains. A close up of the bridge is provided above, showing that it leads to a portcullis.

C: A castle or some sort of fortress, reached by crossing the bridge.

While the mountains, castle and bridge were completely removed, it does appear that a structure adjacent to the Grand Cathedral did remain until relatively late in development. A building behind Upper Cathedral Ward is visible on a development map that closely resembles the version in the retail build. What may be the same structure is visible in the concept art for Upper Cathedral Ward, which shows high brick walls and trees on top of a raised area partially visible in the upper right corner. It appears to have been deleted prior to the build used in the Project Beast trailer.

Leading Path

The method of accessing the mountain path leading to the castle appears to have been a shaft above the altar, similar to the means by which the Research Hall is accessed in The Old Hunters. While the mountainous area was deleted entirely, the elevator lift shaft remained until relatively late, and its surviving collision map shows that it led to second, hidden altar above the first.

This second altar, which may be an unused Cathedral Ward location internally referred to as 月の秘所 ("Secret Place of the Moon"), was a copy of the first, and may be where Ebrietas is shown in the Project Beast trailer. It no longer exists in the retail build, but another hidden altar does - the Altar of Despair. This is also a hidden altar where Ebrietas is located, and reached via a secret lift - albeit one leading below, rather than above, the Grand Cathedral.

Dragon's Guardian

Concept art may help explain what happened to the "Land of the Dragon". In the online portfolio of concept artist Tstutomu Kitazawa, who has a history of working with From Software, is an image of a knight entitled "Dragon's Guardian". While the artwork is not attributed to a specific project, "Dragon's Guardian" very closely resembles the unnamed knight who was datamined from the retail build of Bloodborne. While some details are different, such as the wooden leg and helmet crest, the overall design is almost identical, so it is reasonable to assume they are two versions of the same character.

While this knight was never attached to a specific area, aesthetically they clearly belong in Cainhurst, as it is a medieval castle full of armoured knights with missing legs. Significantly, the name "Dracula" is derived from the word "Dragon", suggesting that the "Dragon" referred to could be vampiric - a land the vampire, just like Cainhurst.

Dragon's Sanctuary

Kitazawa's portfolio also includes two other pieces of interest. The first, "The Dragon's Sanctuary", appears to be the area that "Dragon's Guardian" is standing in, and is a church with some kind of unidentified object behind the altar. The object is large, dark, and is a mixture of organic shapes and a rock texture, similar in aesthetic (though not shape) to the rocks in the Nightmare of Mensis. The second piece, "The Land of the Dragon", depicts a cathedral-like castle surrounded by mountains, reached by climbing the mountains and crossing a bridge.

If all three of Kitazawa's "Dragon" pieces of art are related, then it is possible that "The Land of the Dragon" depicts the removed area behind the Grand Cathedral, with "The Dragon's Guardian" as a potential boss.

Notably, none of the three pieces feature a literal dragon, despite having "Dragon" in their titles. There is dragon imagery present in the form of winged gargoyles, but no flying lizards. If "the Dragon" is vampiric, however, this is consistent.

The Land of Dragon Hypothesis

Notably, "The Land of Dragon" aesthetically resembles the Nightmare of Mensis more so than any other area in either Bloodborne or Dark Souls 3. As the Nightmare of Mensis is also surrounded by mountains, it is possible that "The Land of the Dragon" concept eventually became the Nightmare of Mensis, after moving it from the Waking World to the Dream.

The story of "The Land of the Dragon" was further complicated by the discovery of more concept art, this time credited to Jocus Wang, although no associated portfolio appears to exist. Wang's art appears to simply be the concept art of Cainhurst published in the Bloodborne Official Artworks book, but mislabelled as belonging to Dark Souls 3. However, the artwork is not identical - some assets, such as the banners and windows, are different, and the player character is dressed as though they are in Dark Souls rather than Bloodborne.

There is no reason to assume this is a mistake or a fan edit, however. Dark Souls 3 and Bloodborne share code and assets, and were developed alongside each other, so it is entirely possible that concepts created for one game ended up in the other.

It is unclear how this all fits together, but the hypothesis put forward in the Sinclair Lore video is as follows:

1. A very early draft of Bloodborne climaxed in "The Land of the Dragon", a castle in the mountains behind the Grand Cathedral, reached by ascending the altar. This castle was aesthetically similar to the Nightmare of Mensis, but its role in the history of Yharnam was closer to that of Cainhurst - an old vampire castle that hinted at the city's inhuman origins.

2. "The Land of the Dragon" was then repurposed into the Nightmare of Mensis. The game still climaxed in a castle in the mountains, but those mountains were now floating in the Dream, not sitting behind the Grand Cathedral.

3. Without an area behind the Grand Cathedral, the altar elevator's role was gradually pared back until it became the optional Altar of Despair area, before being repurposed more significantly for The Old Hunters.

4. Moving the castle to the Dream changed its role in the world. It was now an abandoned relic that Mensis found in the Dream, not an older part of Yharnam, and was no longer tied to the vampire aspect of the story.

5. As the vampire castle concept was crucial to Bloodborne's story, a new area had to be created to replace "The Land of the Dragon". This was based on a concept either originally created for Dark Souls 3, or possibly created so that it could be used in either Dark Souls 3 or Bloodborne as From saw fit. This became Cainhurst.

The above is based entirely in circumstantial evidence, but does make sense of all the oddities discovered.

Phase 1 Changes After Limb Staggers

Phase 1 can change depending on which limb(s) you stagger. Staggering either of his arms will make him gain new follow up attacks. Staggering either of his legs will make him gain completely new attacks.

This video will be the reference to the attacks I’ll mention next.

Arm Stagger

After staggering either of his arms, he’ll gain new follow ups to these attacks:

Right hand ground punch now will have a left hand swipe follow up that happens when you’re close to him. Roll the first ground punch, wait for the swipe to come out, roll into him and punish him.

Smaller left hand slam now will have a follow up where he’ll slam his hand 2 more times. Happens when you’re close and in front of him. If you roll the first slam trying to get behind him but instead find yourself still in front of him, expect these 2 slams to come out and roll away.

The 180° swipe(s) will have 4 different variations now:

1. Double swipes into left hand poke. A very common one. This will happen if you stand close to him after the double swipes. He’ll do a poke attack with his left arm, which you can avoid by rolling to the left. Again, this one is very common after an arm stagger, so always expect this to happen.

2. One swipe into left hand poke. This one is also common. Roll to the left.

3. Double swipes into left hand ground slam. Not a very common one, and it happens if you are standing to his left side after the swipes. Roll away from him.

4. One swipe into left hand ground slam. Roll away.

Leg Stagger

After staggering either of his legs, he’ll gain new attacks:

Left hand slam into jump attacks. Now he’ll be able to do new jump attacks that mostly happen when you aren’t very close to him, though he can use them at close range as well. He’ll start by slamming his left hand on the ground, then jump up and land on the ground while also doing a right-handed slam as he’s coming down. Roll away from the first slam, then just as he’s about to land on the ground roll into him and punish him. Rolling away is safer, but you’ll have to immediately turn around and sprint to him to punish it, but that can be a little dangerous as he can attack again very quickly.

Slam into a large swipe gap closer. He’ll start by doing a quick right hand slam, then follow it up with a large left hand swipe that covers a lot of distance. Roll away from the first slam, then roll into his swipe and punish him. This is one of his most dangerous attacks. Just like his jump attacks, he mostly does this when you are not close to him as a gap closer, though he does occasionally use it at close range as well.

Slam into backwards hop. He’ll slam his left hand down the ground then hops backwards. Roll away from him. This one happens when you’re too close to him.

All of these attacks can happen in phase 2 regardless of whether you staggered any of his limbs or not.

Phase 2

Phase 2 starts when he drops to around 80% HP. Here he’ll gain new attacks, and be able to use all of the previously mentioned attacks here, including all of the attacks that happen after staggering his limbs, regardless of whether you actually staggered him in phase 1 or not. He’ll also generally be a lot more aggressive, giving you very little time to breathe.

As I said before, your positioning is very important here, especially in the 2nd and 3rd phases. In phase 2 he has gap closer attacks that he uses when you’re far away from him. Stay at mid range, wait for him to attack then get close and punish it.

Slow Back Swipe

When you are at his left side or behind him, he can use this back swipe with his left hand. It is slower than the other back swipes he uses in phase 1, and in this one he also falls down on the ground and does a ground slam with his left hand too. Roll to the left, then go in while he’s down on the ground and attack him.

Dive

Laurence will curl up then do an air dive towards you. Roll to the left and punish him while he’s down on the ground. This mostly happens when you are far away from him as a gap closer.

One small problem is that the animation of him curling up looks exactly like the one for the jump attack mentioned in phase 1, so how can we tell whether he’s gonna do a jump or a dive? Well, there is one way to tell, but sadly it’s not a very good one.

The audio cues are different. It’s hard to explain them in text, so watch this video to tell the difference. Like I said, it’s not a very good tell, so you’re just gonna have to have quick reflexes and roll accordingly.

5 Attack Combo

He’ll start by doing a ground salm with his left hand, then 3 swipes, then ends the combo with another ground slam. Roll the first swipe that comes out after the ground slam towards his left side, then go behind him and start attacking. This is the best attack to get in phase 2. It’s easy to avoid and gives you plenty of time to punish him.

This one also looks similar to the slam into 4 swipes attack from phase 1. Fortunately this one has better tells than the dive. If you pay attention to the camera, you’ll notice that the camera shakes the moment the first ground slam comes out, whereas it doesn’t shake as much in the attack from the first phase. This video should make it clearer. His scream timing can also tell you which version he’s doing. In the normal version, he starts screaming the moment he slams his hand on the ground, while in the fall down version, he screams just before he slams it.

His right hand will also touch the ground after the first swipe in this one, unlike the similar attack from the first phase.

4 Swipe Combo

Roll away from his first swipe, wait for the second and third to come out, then roll the 4th delayed swipe towards his left side. Very similar to the 4 swipe combo from the first phase, but here he’ll delay his 4th swipe and fall down on the ground while doing it.

Again, you can tell which version he’s doing by paying attention to the camera. Here the camera shakes just as he’s doing the second swipe. Refer back to this video.

You can also see that in this one, his left hand will touch the ground after the 2nd swipe, unlike the one from the first phase.

Slow Left-Handed Slam

A slow left-handed slam that looks similar to the one from his first phase. This one however covers more distance and ends with him falling down on the ground. Also has a follow up left-handed swipe attack if you are in close range and in front of him. Just like the one from the first phase, only consider rolling towards him if you are at close range, if not, roll away.

Phase 3

Phase 3 will start once his HP reaches about 40% or lower. He’ll lose both of his legs and start crawling on the ground.

Laurence will constantly keep spewing lava from his back, so don’t stand or attack him from behind. The lava from his back doesn’t do a lot of damage, but it will keep staggering you if you stand on it.

This phase can either be really easy or really hard depending on how you position your character. Always stay close to him. The further away you are from him, the harder this phase gets.

This is the ideal position for this phase. Stand close to him, just to the left of his head.

Right Hand Swipe

A right hand swipe that happens when you are in front of him and in close range. Roll into it and punish it. There’s no follow up attacks.

Back Swipes

Just like the first two phases, Laurence also has 2 back swipe attacks in phase 3 that he uses when you are behind him or beside him. After rolling, you’ll have enough time to get in and hit him once or twice. The left hand swipe is a little harder to punish since he turns away from you much further than the right hand swipe.

Lava Vomit

Laurence will start by shaking his head before vomiting lava. If you are close to him, you can simply walk to the left and you’ll be safe from it. Because of how long this attack’s animation is, it gives you plenty of time to punish it.

This attack can be dangerous if you are standing far away from him. If you do find yourself in that situation, either try running away from it, or run diagonally to the left or right.

Delayed Left Hand Slam

He’ll lift up his left hand up before slamming it on the ground, then spew lava out of his back. Roll to the left and then attack him from the front. Do not go behind him or to either of his sides to not get hit by the lava.

Keep in mind that this attack is a little delayed, meaning that if you roll immediately the moment you see the attack coming, then you’ll most likely gonna get hit by his slam. Delay your roll just as he’s delaying his slam. When you see his hand coming down, that’s your cue to roll.

Slow Left Hand Slam

A very slow left hand slam, followed by a swipe. Don’t roll when he’s still lifting his arm up. Roll to the left the moment you see the hand coming down, and don’t attack just yet. He will mostly follow it up with a left hand swipe if you are close to him. So roll the slam, wait for the swipe to come out, then roll to the right and punish it. Alternatively, you can avoid the swipe by standing next to his right arm, as shown in the GIF above.

Crawling Attacks

Laurence has 2 crawling attacks. He’ll crawl on the ground moving towards you while slamming both of his hands on the ground and creating a lava trail as he’s going.

In this one, he’ll crawl and slam his hands 7 times on the ground. Roll the first one to the left, and as long as you keep your character to his right side, he won’t be able to hit you. You can attack him while he’s still doing the attack, or just wait for it to end then start attacking.

This method doesn’t work very well when you are both near a wall. Be careful when you find yourself in that situation, and be ready to avoid the rest of his slams instead of just the first one. Always roll to the left.

In the second one, he’ll slam his hands only 3 times, but this one has a left hand swipe follow up. This left hand swipe is the same as the one from his slow left hand slam attack, which means that you can either avoid it by rolling to the right, or simply by standing next to his right arm.

Translation

When the red moon hangs low, the line between man and beast is blurred. And when the Great Ones descend, a womb will be blessed with child.

In ancient Pthumeru, the Scourge of Beasts ravaged the land. It must have been then that the Blood Moon arose, perhaps for the very first time, and a womb was blessed with child. It's unknown if Yharnam was impregnated by the Great Ones specifically because she was Queen, or if she was simply a woman chosen at random, but she is most assuredly assumed to have been, in that Hunt, the potential mother of a Great One.
[The Paleblood Hunt by Redgrave]

Preparation

Stock up on Blood Vials, Quicksilver Bullets and Antidotes, and if you have Oedon Writhe or Clawmark runes, equip them before heading to the dungeon. Consider bringing a Reiterpallasch and a Cannon, but pick up plenty of Bone Marrow Ash regardless of what firearm you choose. Bring a weapon with a pure physical damage type and set it with your strongest attack bonus gems; the Rifle Spear is the best weapon for this battle, due to its long reach, and will allow you to strike from outside the reach of the boss' paralysis attack.

Overview

The Pthumerian Queen has strong elemental and arcane defenses as well as an enormous amount of health. She will start Phase 1 with her hands bound, and will use only blood magic attacks until the next phase begins. Her spells inflict rapid poison build-up and cannot be interrupted, although they will be cancelled if she is hit while casting. She can be staggered from behind, but her Paralysis Cry attack will almost always hit you before you have time to finish charging.

Once her health has been reduced to 80% she will break her cuffs and draw a dagger, with which she'll perform hysical attacks in addition to her blood magic; at this point her Blood Spears will be replaced by Triple Blood Spears and she will begin using her other Phase 2 moves. Her melee attacks are all interruptible and consist of basic slashes and stabs from close range; the Gliding Stab is performed at mid range and has a heavy knockback. She'll occasionally teleport and reappear with two clones, but you can tell them apart by their appearance: only the real queen is pregnant. The clones use the queen's knife attacks and Blood Spears, and present considerable danger when left alive; however, a single gunshot or melee attack will destroy them.

After her health falls to 50% she will cover her dagger with blood, extending its reach and adding a rapid poison effect to her melee attacks; from this point on, she will begin using her Phase 3 moves and will always use her Rising Blood Spear attack six times in a row.

Strategy

During Phase 1, use the Rifle Spear's standard R2 attack from outside the reach of Queen Yharnam's Paralysis Cry to knock her out of her casting animations and prevent her from attacking while you wear her down. From Phase 2 onward, use the Reiterpallasch to interrupt her melee attacks and immediately follow up with a Bone Marrow Ash Cannon shot while she's staggered. When you run out of ammunition, continue interrupting her swings and use visceral attacks to regain your Quicksilver Bullets with the power of the Oedon Writhe rune, then repeat the procedure.

Environment

The boss area is a massive dome, empty save for the large altar in the center. The altar can be used reliably as cover for healing or Antidotes use during the first phase, though during later phases it can obstruct your vision, making Queen Yharnam's Rising Blood Spears difficult to avoid.

Notes

First met upon defeat of Rom, the Vacuous Spider. Next encounter is before approaching the Mergo's Wet Nurse in Nightmare of Mensis. Yharnam, Pthumerian Queen is final boss in Great Pthumeru Ihyll Labyrinths

In the first two main story encounters Yharnam doesn't drop anything

It is possible to obtain trophy for Yharnam, Pthumerian Queen as cooperator (normal & via SRRC) when she is killed in host's world.

After Nurse defeat, you can return to Yharnam, Pthumerian Queen and she will bow to you and disappear.

Grab attacks can be escaped more quickly, taking less damage in the process, if you alternate pressing buttons like L2 and R2. Unlike in previous Souls titles any combination of buttons can be used for this technique.

Yharnam, Pthumerian Queen clones have no visible health bar and will disappear after being hit but Rapid Poison "proc" by rolling does nothing to them, same goes for Slow Poison but sound and aura of active effect is present.

She will be present in Nightmare of Mensis even if killed in Great Pthumeru Ihyll Labyrinth

Variant of Yharnam appears in test dungeons with the name "Pthumerian Bride".

Queen Yharnam can be pushed with Beast Roar out of her initial spot in Nightmare of Mensis, she can't go through any elevator nor Iron Key door, there are invisible walls preventing her from proceeding further, doesn't take small fall damage and is not aggroing the enemy. [image 01, image 02, image 03, image 04, Shoes]

In game version 1.00 the track used for this boss fight was Watchdog of the Old Lords theme.

It is to believed that Queen Yharnam wears Ring of Bethrothal, upon closer investigation of in-game model there are some similarities but it is difficult to say for certain. [image 01]

Through data mining of Yharnam's dagger model, you can see there are writings on the weapon. [image]

Cooperation & Boss' HP

Having a summoned ally doesn't alter the health or difficulty of the enemies you'll fight, but it does affect the bosses. To ensure they are still a challenge, boss health is increased to 1.5x when a second co-op player enters your world, and to 2.0x when a third enters.

Overview

Use Pthumeru Chalice at a Ritual Altar in Hunter's Dream to create the Chalice Dungeon. Conducting a ritual to create a Chalice Dungeon is fairly straightforward; when you've got a Chalice and the required ritual materials, approach a Ritual altar and select the Chalice Ritual option. In the Chalice Ritual menu you'll see the list of all your collected chalices in the large window on the left of your screen. Along the top of this window are four tabs, one for each class of Chalice, which affects the area that labyrinth will be set in. The central window shows the details of the ritual, including the Depth of the created dungeon, which is essentially the difficulty level, with 1 being the lowest and 5 being the maximum.

The depth affects the required level for certain Basic and Rite Materials. For example, Depth 2 labyrinths will require Ritual Blood (2) and Tomb Mold (2), which can be acquired from the corresponding depth labyrinths or from certain chests and enemies from the previous Depth. The cost in Blood Echoes is also shown, along with the required materials, both for the ritual and any possible Additional Rites. If you have all of the required materials and are certain you want to use them, select the Conduct Ritual option to create the dungeon.

Created Preset Labyrinth

Labyrinth		Layer Bosses	Key Rewards
	Pthumerian Labyrinth Depth 1	L1: Undead Giant (Twin Curved Blades) L2: Merciless Watchers & Chieftain L3: Watchdog of the Old Lords	L1 Boss: Adept Blood Gemstone L2 Boss: Pthumeru Root Chalice L3 Boss: Central Pthumeru Chalice

There are ten Preset Chalice Labyrinths in Bloodborne. Each labyrinth is comprised of three layers, with the exception of the Lower Pthumeru Labyrinth, which has four layers. Clearing these labyrinths will reward you with loot, key items, weapons and more Chalices to unlock more challenging dungeons. A Preset Dungeon has the same appearance every time for every hunter, with no change in layouts or enemy placements. If you are following the intended path of unlocking each chalice, you will always traverse the fixed version of a chalice before you obtain the root from within it.

impose a blasphemous Yharnam burial service upon them,
with the hope that former compatriots might be returned to
the skies, and find rest in a hunter's dream.

Overview

Consuming Coldbloods provides an alternative and safe way of acquiring Blood Echoes. As you defeat enemies, your hunter will accrue Blood Echoes, the currency used to purchase items, level up your character, and more. The more enemies defeated, the greater the spoils, but be forewarned: upon death, Blood Echoes are dropped, and must be collected by returning to where your hunter was slain. Enemies can also pick up your hunter's Blood Echoes where you dropped them. The beast that stole your Blood Echoes will have an unearthly glow in its eyes, and must be slain in order to win them back. If, along the way back, your hunter is killed again, those previous Blood Echoes are lost forever. However Coldbloods stay safely stored in your inventory and it is recommended to consume them whenever you are ready to immediately spend Blood Echoes you gain from them.

When an enemy appears in a dungeon, it sometimes has one or more of its drops determined by the dungeon's Depth, in order to give better rewards for more challenging dungeons. Such items are selected from a pool of similar items, and these pools are shown here. The upshot of this is that an enemy might drop a Tomb Mold (1) in the Depth 1 Pthumerian Root Labyrinth, but would drop a Tomb Mold (5) instead in a Depth 5 Isz Gravestone dungeon.

In-Game Description

Badge of the royal guards of Cainhurst, loyal guardians of
the Vileblood Queen Annalise.

The Vilebloods are hunters of blood, and hunt prey as they
search for blood dregs. The hunter who joins them is faced
with a decision: to merely borrow their strength, or to
become one of them, heart and soul.

Opens

Click for full view, © Bloodborne Collector’s Edition Guide by Future Press.

Acquiring Cainhurst Badge allows you to purchase the Vileblood weapons and armor in Bath shop and adds Numbing Mist to the Insight shop's inventory.

Badges are proof of your achievements and can be shown to the Bath Messengers and Insight Bath Messengers in the Hunter's Dream to expand the shop inventory. You'll sometimes find these valuable relics on the bodies of the fallen, but you may also receive them from other hunters. Obtaining certain badges will add extremely useful and important items to the shop's lineup, so it's worth going out of your way to find them.

The Bath Messengers are the most straightforward of the game's merchants; they can be found in the lower bath in the Hunter's Dream from the start of the game, and offer you the options to buy and sell items. By acquiring new badges, the Bath Messengers shop will start filling with new messengers in the bath. Each badge adds unique messenger alongside with new sortiment for you to buy. Cainhurst Badge adds Messenger clapping on the left.

The Insight Bath Messengers can be found in the upper bath outside the middle door of the base building in the Hunter's Dream and, as its name implies, uses insight as its currency rather than blood echoes. In order for the merchant messengers to appear, you must have at least 1 point of insight (required only once).

Availability

Acquired from (Main Story): you must speak with Annalise, Queen of Castle Cainhurst and swear an oath to the Vilebloods.

Notes

Unlocks Evelyn, Chikage, Reiterpallasch and Cainhurst Set for purchase at Bath Messengers and Numbing Mist at Insight Bath Messengers

Upon starting New Game+ Cainhurst Badge will stay in your inventory. Other Key Items (except for other Badges, Blood Gem Workshop Tool, Rune Workshop Tool, Short Ritual Root Chalice, Workshop Haze Extractor and Ring of Betrothal) you acquired on your previous playthrough will be stripped away and you'll need to collect them again.

	Iron Door Key	- / 1	- / -	Nightmare of Mensis	Key to the gate blocking the great midlevel bridge	-

In Game Description

Of the three great bridges that link the two cathedral
cradles, this key opens the iron door that leads to the
midlevel bridge.

There are no thieves in the nightmare. Then, why lock a
door? Be warned, there must be a very, very good reason.

Effects

^{It unlocks a small side door in the library where the first phase of the battle occurs}, but take heed of the warning - there is indeed an extremely good reason why this door is locked, and it is recommended to bring a few Sedatives with you if you plan to open it.

If you decided to pick it up during or right after the fight with Micolash, Host of the Nightmare, you can return to access the Middle Bridge if you wish. At this time the Brain of Mensis is still in position on the bridge and it's extremely difficult to gather the items out there while that's the case. You'll have another chance to access the bridge later, after dealing with the Brain, so it's much safer to leave the items until then.

With the Brain of Mensis dropped from its housing you're free to explore the Middle Bridge at your leisure, since there are no other enemies in the area. There are a large number of items to pick up from the corpses of the Brain's victims, including some more useful Droplet Blood Gems. If you go down the stairway near the end of the bridge, there's a path you can follow to reach the other side of the iron gate, leading back into the area where you faced Micolash.

Near the center of the Middle Bridge there is a crumbled section of wall that you can walk through. This lets you reach the top of a room just to the side of the bridge, with a large hole in the middle, Look down over the edge first, and drop down very carefully. At the back of this room you'll find a precious Blood Rock, an item of extreme rarity.

Availability

Treasure in (Main Story): Nightmare of Mensis, you'll find this key on a corpse near the lower-most mirror during the second phase of the boss fight with Micolash, Host of the Nightmare

Notes

Upon starting New Game+ all of the Key Items (except for Badges, Blood Gem Workshop Tool, Rune Workshop Tool, Short Ritual Root Chalice, Workshop Haze Extractor and Yharnam Stone) you acquired on your previous playthrough will be stripped away and you'll need to collect them again.

In Game Description

Whistle of the Madaras twins, denizens of the Forbidden Woods.
The twins grew up alongside a poisonous snake, and
developed a silent, inhuman kinship.

The poisonous snake grew uncontrollably, raised on a
healthy diet of beast entrails. Even after their deaths, it is
said to respond to the call of the twins' whistle from within the Nightmare.

Effects

Although the Whistle requires 18 bloodtinge, and uses bloodtinge for scaling, it still deals arcane Damage, so it's a great way for players with bloodtinge builds to inflict a lot of arcane damage. Upon blowing the whistle, a portal to the Nightmare opens beneath you, and shortly after that the head of a giant snake will come bursting up through it. The time between blowing the Whistle and the snake appearing is extremely small, and if you're not careful it's very easy to get hit by the snake yourself. This attack also has quite a small area of effect (not much bigger than the radius around your character), but up until the point that the snake starts to withdraw into the portal the attack is considered active, so make sure you don't move back into the area prematurely.

After blowing the Whistle you can avoid the snake by either walking in a straight line without stopping or changing directions, or alternatively you can Quickstep in any direction to be less predictable. The small radius and inherent danger for the user are offset by the speed and sheer amount of damage it's possible to inflict with this attack. Anytime you're near a boss and only have a second or so to act you can use this attack to inflict a large amount of damage quickly, and still have to evade as needed. Similarly it can be very good against aggressive enemies that relentlessly pursue you. Enemy Hunters often fall into this category, so you can wait for them to get close, blow the Whistle, and then Quickstep backwards away from them and watch as they get hit while trying to follow.

Availability

Dropped by (Main Story): Younger Twin Madaras, the Madaras Whistle is held by one of the twins in the Forbidden Woods, so to get it you need to get him to appear and kill him for it. To do that you will first need to speak to Valtr in the Woods and Join the League to get the Impurity Caryll Rune, then after equipping that rune you will need to acquire a Vermin. Vermin can be acquired by partaking in a successful co-op session, summoning a fellow Confederate of the League and killing a boss with them, or by killing one of the stronger Old Hunters in the Hunter's Nightmare. Once you have a Vermin, use it, and then return to the Woods and speak with Valtr again to become recognized as a full member of the League. If you now leave the area via the Lamp and come straight back again, you'll find Younger Twin Madaras standing nearby with his back to you; kill him and he'll drop the Whistle for you.
