Brador, Church Assassin ❘ ブラドー

Hunter Enemy

Description

  • Brador will begin invading in set locations after you reach the Fishing Hamlet. Although he has lower health than all of the other hunter enemies in the expansion areas, he can be an extremely deadly opponent owing to his unique weapon and devious fighting style. Upon invading he will immediately transform his weapon and will use it almost exclusively in this mode until he is defeated; he will also continuously drink Lead Elixirs, granting him potent super armor and a deflection effect which causes lighter melee attacks to bounce off of him.
  • The transformed Bloodletter has long reach and brutally high attack speed, and knocking Brador out of his swift combos is next to impossible while he is under the effects of a Lead Elixir. His wanton use of this double-edged sword comes with a tradeoff, however: the elixir's effects also impair his movement speed, leaving him far more vulnerable to ranged attacks and AoEs. He will vary his swings between light and heavy, horizontal and vertical, and can still quickstep even with the movement penalty, but leaves himself completely vulnerable while consuming Lead Elixirs.

Stats & Equipment

  • Tables below consist of datamined stats and equipment, this specific information is for NPCs, hunters or less, that uses a player-like human model and skeleton, practically every NPC that can be equipped with player's gears. Some characters are equipped with items that they aren't programmed to use by the AI, such items are highlighted. All characters have infinite Quicksilver Bullets and 99 copies of any item they hold (including Blood Vials) and the only thing that prevents from infinitely consuming them is written in their AI script. For information about all characters visit Datamined NPCs Stats & Equipment wiki page.

Strategy

  • Wait for him to consume a Lead Elixir, then stand just outside his reach and bait of his attacks to set him up for an interrupt. Alternately, if you have the Gatling Gun, allow him to use an elixir and then mow him down with a sustained volley while backing away from him; his impaired movement will leave him helpless and unable to escape the stream of bullets. Hunter tools such as the Tiny Tonitrus, Executioner's Gloves and Blacksky Eye can be used for this purpose as well, but A Call Beyond is less effective in certain enclosed locations such as the cell block as most of the projectiles will collide with walls before they have a chance to reach their mark.
  • You may also wait for the effects of Brador's current elixir to wear off, then allow him to use another and immediately quickstep forward to perform an (R1) combo while he is locked in the animation. He is susceptible to poison, which is considerably more effective against him than other hunters thanks to his lower health and self-inflicted inability to dodge Poison Knives. He will also have great difficulty dodging Bone Ashed Cannon or Church Cannon blasts after using an elixir, so make good use of this tactic if you have the necessary equipment and eliminate him before he has a chance to attack.

Notes

  • This Enemy is part of The Old Hunters DLC.
  • Brador's phantoms that you meet throughout Fishing Hamlet and in the Underground Cells area will not drop Blood Dreg if you equip Corruption Oath Rune. Only his body form locked in the Cell will yield this reward.
  • Character model of these phantoms is of much younger age than current Brador locked in his Cell. Showing us Brador of past in his prime.
