Can I Beat Bloodborne Using Only Charged Hammer Attacks at the Minimal Stats?

Рет қаралды 157,955

Күн бұрын

Can you beat Bloodborne using only the charged R2 attacks of the Kirkhammer in hammer form? Including the unique follow up R2 you can perform after landing a fully charged attack. But also while staying at the lowest level you can be at in order to meet the stat requirements, which is BL11. And the result is that I went completely bonkers in this minimal stats challenge run

I usually ran it Arc or Vit gouge with flat Arc gems so I didn't use the untricked form a whole lot, maybe it rallied better since more of the damage was blunt instead of arcane.

I think the reason blunt damage isn't really super effective on a lot of things in Bloodborne is most likely due to everything being relatively human/animal or an eldritch monster. Blunt damage in rpgs is almost solely strong against things like skeletons and crystal monsters who can break and shatter and it prevent them from existing
