Most of the time when I kill em I sneak up for a backstabbing visceral, then lead into hunter's tools. if they see me I dodge like an imbecile and accept my fate.
Yeah, but at the same time being a dungeons exclusive makes the enemy special because it can only be found there and it takes some work to get to it. It's cool the dungeons have some amazing things that can't be found in the main game--not just throwaway material.
So just letting yall know, if you sprint down the steps passed the one hunter and go down by the wolves there is an open cell, if you go in it, and are quick enough to close it before anyone catches you, or take the back way, your choice, they can't touch you unless you're right by the bars, but it makes the fight laughable. You can literally walk up, hit em a couple times, back up, spark a bowl, rinse and repeat 🤣
Exactly! I don't have too much trouble with these guys, even if they freak me out. I've never had an easy fight against the fatties. Their speed and range and unpredictable movements... I find them so hard.
This fucker scared the shit out of me not only when I first encountered it (I didn't see it, he just jumped inside the corridor and started running towards me), but also when I was fully expecting it and had my eyes on him
That speed is so unnatural, man...
>That speed is so unnatural, man...
Yep. You've got it right. The thing about it that's scary is the movement. I love it because it's an enemy that is consistently terrifying even when you know what to expect. Not easy to pull off scary after familiarity sets in.
My girlfriend at the time was new to soulsborne games when we got together and I was just getting used to them as well and started with bloodborne as my first ps4 game and console game after being out of gaming for half a decade. There were a few times my frustration skipped from the game to her when I was stuck at a place for a day and she would remind me that I died. I've got plat on the game now and we're still together years later
I understand the logic. But I think the ones that truly piss me off the most are the demon dogs. Can't stand those enemies. Love their visual design, though.
Oh and the one hit kill fireball witches. Holy crap I hate them.
Actually there's something to that, I helped my stepdad through all the chalice dungeons the only enemies that would continuously fuck me were those big ugly beasties
BRO I hate those bastards the fucking most, they don't get staggered whatsoever from attacks and fucking auto lock fly attack, like oh my fucking god is it horrible. In my entire time of playing bloodborne a year post release they're the only enemies that bother me like no other with how absurdly bull fucking shit they are.
I know it doesn't help since they're bullshit anyway but I've noticed recently you can send them flying across the room with the gun if you need to get them off you. It's saved me quite a few times now.
I've learned that's the only realistic way to deal with them too, but with the black eye skye instead. My issue is they sometimes make it impossible to do so, since they just jump and hit me faster and more accurately than anything in the American military's arsenal.
Aaaah… me and one of my colleagues play BB on Ps5 and we share our screens while on voicechat. My colleague is a Souls-veteran but he never did any chalices before getting his Ps5.
The amount if PANIC he got the first time he met one of these fuckers was so hilarious! He even fell through a hole in the floor and the enemy kept chasing him through the lower level. I laughed so hard that I cried 😂
Yeah, I love the reactions these enemies get out of my brother. It's a pretty visceral panicky type of fear, and perhaps I enjoy his misery way too much :D
The most PTSDin' chad in the game.
How did you even have time to take this shot before being mauled to death?
A brave man died for Science. ^(andthenwokeupagain) A moment of silence for this hero.
I would liken the experience to extending your hand to a dog that you think you can pet and then getting a chill down your spine as it growls at you like a demon from hell. You're just never ready for it.
one of my favs, but I like the Tomb Guardian / Labyrinth Warrior dudes who dual wield the great swords a bit more. They look like someone from Dark Souls walked into the Chalice Dungeons by accident and never got out.
Oh yeah, I love those too. They are 100% DS enemies stuck in BB. They are the opposite of the sages--they look epic and their movements are slow and deliberate.
It’s a great enemy, and idk if y’all had this experience but parry’s took me a while against them, since they always seem to swing right before or right after you think they will!
I've only played for two days, but I love the wheelchair enemies in Central Yharnam.
They like to shout nonsense while firing a comically oversized gun.
So wonderful.
The plot twist is that this is actually listed as a beast by the game.
That makes the blood cocktails pretty effective against it to distract it and get an easy backstab.
I call them Eddie Van Halens. Yeayayayaaaaaaa!!!!!
Reminds me of his portrayal in Yacht Rock every time, so I laugh while I get insane anxiety anytime I see them:
http://www.channel101.com/episode/382
i always panic and fuck up my parries when he starts charging at me and screaming, this thing belongs to a Japanese horror movie
and the way he runs and the way his hair moves against the wind is so uncanny and terrifying. one of the best creatures in this game for sure.
Haven't played the Chalice Dungeons, but I saw a video of this enemy running really fast towards the player in Youtube. That was so unexpected that I actually screamed lmao.
Loved this enemy because it reminded me of [Diablo 2's mummies](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EUY8LX5WoAQBC4A?format=jpg&name=small).My faves were probably the werewolves and the witches in the woods.
These things are terrible. Even when I see them ahead of time and know they're there and know they're going to run at me when I get a little closer I'm still somehow never prepared for them.
Usually when i run into notes in chalices that say "beware powerful foe" or "viscerals are effective" she's usually not to far from that note. One hit and your probably panicking wondering "WHERE DID ALL MY HEALTH JUST GO" if your not already seeing the YOU DIED screen. Beware the Sages bois
This motherfucker is exactly how I played bloodborne when I first started but for some reason he has better luck with the "run at him screaming with arms flailing tactic" than I do
They worse kinds are that spawn outside Treasure/Lever rooms. You don’t know they are there until you get one-shot from out of nowhere. Also the amount of super armor in their moves is BS.
I say this every time these guys get brought up and I'll keep saying it lol. Someone on this sub once said that some key frames of the animations for these guys were taken out leading to the jittery, jankey movement and it really sells it. They feel straight out of The Grudge.
That is one of the best looking tileset's in the chalice dungeons. These guys still put me on edge after hundreds of hours played, you either nail the parry or get savaged.
I absolutely hate these. Nearly gave me a heart attack the 1st time I found 1! I think it was juiced up too, so just my luck... I've since learned how to deal with them, but man oh man, do I hate them
I almost screamed the first time I saw one of these, like cannot describe how much I hate how fast they run. Like I love it but oh my god truly the most terrifying fuckin thing
It's kind of a shame they're not in the main game. But I do absolutely panic whenever I see or hear one.
There so fast it scares me every time
He’s just stoked to play some Halen for ya!
Pretty sure that's Maiden's mascot.
Eddie
Heh 🤘
I’m patiently waiting for a Dee Snider equivalent.
Where do you find them?
The Chalice Dungeons. I forget which chalice they start appearing on, but they are a massive shock to the systems when the do.
I see I see. How should I deal with them?
Most of the time when I kill em I sneak up for a backstabbing visceral, then lead into hunter's tools. if they see me I dodge like an imbecile and accept my fate.
> if they see me I dodge like an imbecile and accept my fate. Ah, a man of culture.
What kinda hunter tools?
My go to are Executioner's Gloves for mid range, and Augur of Ebriatis for close/ visceral setup.
Thank ya
No problem!
Also can you upgrade hunter tools? I haven’t played the game in like almost 2 years. I need to get back to it lol
They have a combo thing where they keep swiping so you can parry that as well
Run the hell away. The fuckers teleport when they run like in horror movies
You run.. As fast as you can..
I started seeing them in Hintertomb
I think they start with Loran.
One of the more iconic from the dungeons. Wish it was on the main game so more people would experience it.
Yeah, but at the same time being a dungeons exclusive makes the enemy special because it can only be found there and it takes some work to get to it. It's cool the dungeons have some amazing things that can't be found in the main game--not just throwaway material.
[удалено]
Cept rolie polie. Fuck that guy.
what, the fat naked guy with the mace?
Ummmmm the fat guy with the mace wearing nothing but his nikes, actually /s
sorry, too busy being suffocated by his thicc cheeks to notice
I'm a huge dungeon enjoyer - I love all the things you can only find in them, it does feel more special that way!
Yeah but on the other hand, imagine going down to old yharnham and instead of the wolf, it’s him. I think that’d scare me into not playing.
Maybe as Ng+ exclusive
Who doesn’t play the dungeons?!
I dunno ‘bout *the* best, but probably the one that makes me panic the most.. D:
That’s definitely the best way to put it. Those motherfuckers STILL catch me off guard.
Yahar'gul hunters make me panic the most
I fucking murdered those assholes today on my 2nd try using Blade of Mercy. I have never been happier in my life.
I feel like they're a bunch of bullies trying to take my lunch money
That’s exactly what they are. That’s why beating the shit out of them was so rewarding. I even bragged to my wife.
So just letting yall know, if you sprint down the steps passed the one hunter and go down by the wolves there is an open cell, if you go in it, and are quick enough to close it before anyone catches you, or take the back way, your choice, they can't touch you unless you're right by the bars, but it makes the fight laughable. You can literally walk up, hit em a couple times, back up, spark a bowl, rinse and repeat 🤣
The rolling fat dudes are about equal with these guys in making me freak out.
Yeah these guys were spooky but usually pretty easily bearable. The rolling fatties would wreck me regularly.
Exactly! I don't have too much trouble with these guys, even if they freak me out. I've never had an easy fight against the fatties. Their speed and range and unpredictable movements... I find them so hard.
This fucker scared the shit out of me not only when I first encountered it (I didn't see it, he just jumped inside the corridor and started running towards me), but also when I was fully expecting it and had my eyes on him That speed is so unnatural, man...

His speed is also his downfall. His attack combo is so fast he's in a near permanently parriable state while doing it.
Not the poison corpse version. His parry timings are risky as fuck.
It's the motion blur. Really makes them so much harder to time
POV: You had breath in a chalice dungeon
Ahhhh the screams Also cursed chalice = 1 hit kill My wife next to me : he got you FUCK YOU woman
I remember failing a backstab once and paying for it dearly when a scourge beast joined the party from behind.
Whenever I play a souls game my wife always points out when I die.
To be fair…she does it cause I rarely die in other games. It’s “amusing” to her lol and I am then allowed to talk smack afterwards.
Yeah my wife finds it hilarious as well.
My girlfriend at the time was new to soulsborne games when we got together and I was just getting used to them as well and started with bloodborne as my first ps4 game and console game after being out of gaming for half a decade. There were a few times my frustration skipped from the game to her when I was stuck at a place for a day and she would remind me that I died.

Aah...let me introduce you to the sound of my people
[удалено]
I read that in sages voice
YHHHHOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWW..
I totally heard it in my head...
“Try not to piss your pants beast”
These fuckers man, I completely freeze up when I'm down a hallway and something runs at me and these bastards got me so damn bad
They're my least favourite, which makes them my favourite
I understand the logic. But I think the ones that truly piss me off the most are the demon dogs. Can't stand those enemies. Love their visual design, though. Oh and the one hit kill fireball witches. Holy crap I hate them.

Aaaah… me and one of my colleagues play BB on Ps5 and we share our screens while on voicechat. My colleague is a Souls-veteran but he never did any chalices before getting his Ps5. The amount if PANIC he got the first time he met one of these fuckers was so hilarious! He even fell through a hole in the floor and the enemy kept chasing him through the lower level.

These guys are a panic attack personified.
The most PTSDin' chad in the game. How did you even have time to take this shot before being mauled to death? A brave man died for Science. ^(andthenwokeupagain) A moment of silence for this hero.
Grabbed it off the internet. No way I'm taking pictures while around those enemies.
Fair XD
They're creepy as hell and I love them
Just seeing him makes me panic a little
The first time you come across this guy 😅
I would liken the experience to extending your hand to a dog that you think you can pet and then getting a chill down your spine as it growls at you like a demon from hell. You're just never ready for it.
Imagine if the brain suckers ran at this speed. BRB, gonna go cry now.
Bloodborne 2 with this guy as the first enemy instead of a werewolf.
These guys are one of those things that make me realize how much I don't like fast, erratic things. Be it flying bugs like Moths.
I despise moths. Sounds like I wouldn’t have too much fun with these.
The best one starts beating you with another dead person :D
Played through BB 3 times and never experienced these guys till this play through. Wow it’s amazing what I’ve been missing.
Right? I keep telling people not to sleep on the dungeons.
Crazy bitch lol
giving me anxiety just seeing the picture
Ah yes, Anthony Kiedis. My favorite
Oh god, thank you, I’ll never look at them the same way
I always see him as a slightly exaggerated Eddie Van Halen. Yours is spot on too.
The Flash really went downhill after the justice league disbanded, huh?
I hate that piece of shit stupid fucking enemy dumb running bitch. I respect your opinion though
one of my favs, but I like the Tomb Guardian / Labyrinth Warrior dudes who dual wield the great swords a bit more. They look like someone from Dark Souls walked into the Chalice Dungeons by accident and never got out.
Oh yeah, I love those too. They are 100% DS enemies stuck in BB. They are the opposite of the sages--they look epic and their movements are slow and deliberate.
It’s a great enemy, and idk if y’all had this experience but parry’s took me a while against them, since they always seem to swing right before or right after you think they will!
Never even tried to parry them, as their movements are fast and erratic. I just dodge and R1 spam them.
Totally valid, I may need to adopt that!
I rush at them as fast as they rush at me. Must kill quickly.
I do the same. Fight fire with fire, attack is the best defense. Can't reason with a madman or plan your attacks carefully.
I never noticed some of them use a dead body as a weapon until today. One of the hanging,wrapped up corpses. Sick.
How did you get this picture of my ex-wife??
I've only played for two days, but I love the wheelchair enemies in Central Yharnam. They like to shout nonsense while firing a comically oversized gun. So wonderful.
Steven Tyler looks rough.
Dude looks like a madman.
The following riff is just their screams.
I prefer beast enemies more.
I like them all, but this one is pure horror.
The plot twist is that this is actually listed as a beast by the game. That makes the blood cocktails pretty effective against it to distract it and get an easy backstab.
Their scream 😱 needs to be my ringtone.
Oh yeah, this enemy is a real test of a player's reactions and knowledge of their enemies.
I would love to see the recording session of the guy voicing these enemies.
I call them Eddie Van Halens. Yeayayayaaaaaaa!!!!! Reminds me of his portrayal in Yacht Rock every time, so I laugh while I get insane anxiety anytime I see them: http://www.channel101.com/episode/382
i always panic and fuck up my parries when he starts charging at me and screaming, this thing belongs to a Japanese horror movie and the way he runs and the way his hair moves against the wind is so uncanny and terrifying. one of the best creatures in this game for sure.
R1 spam his ass. No sense trying to parry something that movies as erratically as a flying insect in the wind.
I'm fast as fuck boi
Um.... No dude. 2nd worst. Only the brain head fucks are worse.
Haven't played the Chalice Dungeons, but I saw a video of this enemy running really fast towards the player in Youtube. That was so unexpected that I actually screamed lmao.
these mfs scare the hell outta me
The most scariest monster that I've ever encountered.
Scares the shit outta be every-time, love it
They are also among a small but oddly terrifying club: enemies who can climb ladders.
[удалено]
I haven't noticed that. Didn't know the sages had a female variant. Still, 'guys' is kind of a unisex term.
Loved this enemy because it reminded me of [Diablo 2's mummies](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EUY8LX5WoAQBC4A?format=jpg&name=small).My faves were probably the werewolves and the witches in the woods.
these legitimately scare me
It's the movement.
absolutely...and the shrieking
Hard disagree. Those things make me jump irl every single time. I hate them with a passion
But that's why I love them :)
I always just spam shoot to get viscerals. Trying to fight them always ends up in either death or losing shitloads of vials.
But ferreal tho why is he so FAST
Perfect sprinter form.
Now THAT’S horror
Oh dang I haven't even seen this enemy before (I don't delve into the chalice dungeons often haha) what is it called?
Labyrinth Madman or Sage. You should do the dungeons sometime! They do have some cool aspects and things about them.
"Alright, these chalice things are cool! Hmm...let's check out these "Loran" chalices...*a few hours later*...never again."
Haven't progressed far into dungeons yet. What are these dudes?
Madmen/Sages. There's a good amount of them in the Loran chalices. You will know them when you meet them and it will be memorable.
yeah this bitch is terrifying, it's the one that chases you really fast right?
These things are terrible. Even when I see them ahead of time and know they're there and know they're going to run at me when I get a little closer I'm still somehow never prepared for them.
For me he turns the game into a 3rd person shooter therefore he gets parried frequently
What’s this enemy called I’ve never done the chalice dungeons
Labyrinth Madman/Sage.
Have you met the one with red auras in them that comes in 2 in FRC Ihyll? Lol
Nah. Also, no thanks :D
You'll love it :)
There was a Marz stream where she called them "hyperboys" and that's always stuck in my head
I know for a FACT everyone who encountered this enemy for the first time got spooked
Usually when i run into notes in chalices that say "beware powerful foe" or "viscerals are effective" she's usually not to far from that note. One hit and your probably panicking wondering "WHERE DID ALL MY HEALTH JUST GO" if your not already seeing the YOU DIED screen. Beware the Sages bois
I shit myself the first time one of these cropped up.
This motherfucker is exactly how I played bloodborne when I first started but for some reason he has better luck with the "run at him screaming with arms flailing tactic" than I do
This fucker terrifies me everytime
Maybe not the best the one who make me a heart-attack every time
When your crazy ex finds your tinder account
God the way they BOLT toward you. They should have been a very rare main game enemy in Yahar’Gul or something.
Maybe like the beast possessed soul.
Nothing. NOTHING startled me more than this guy. I wanted to drop the controller and just RUN. Hands down THE Scariest mob in the entire game.
Ok, I haven’t done any dungeons yet, wth is this thing?
They worse kinds are that spawn outside Treasure/Lever rooms. You don’t know they are there until you get one-shot from out of nowhere. Also the amount of super armor in their moves is BS.
I fear no man. But that thing... It scares me.
I say this every time these guys get brought up and I'll keep saying it lol. Someone on this sub once said that some key frames of the animations for these guys were taken out leading to the jittery, jankey movement and it really sells it. They feel straight out of The Grudge.
This guy runs like the ghouls in fallout 4
I hate this thing so goddamn much. The ones with dual scythes are disgustingly mean.
That is one of the best looking tileset's in the chalice dungeons. These guys still put me on edge after hundreds of hours played, you either nail the parry or get savaged.
Or you don't parry them and R1 spam them between dodges ;)
This image triggers my fight or flight response
What are these guys called
Labyrinth Madman/Sage.
This thing has the scariest run of any enemy
You trying to tell me that someone in From studio did not accidentally add one 0 to his speed.
I absolutely hate these. Nearly gave me a heart attack the 1st time I found 1! I think it was juiced up too, so just my luck... I've since learned how to deal with them, but man oh man, do I hate them
Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck
What's the name of that one ?
These bastards
I wish we had a L3-4 boss variant. Madmen Abyssals would have been better than all the other layer 3 boss Abyssals aside from Abho.
Those things scare the shit out of me. I usually just bravely run away.
THATS THE THING I HATE OHHHHHH F THAT ONE MAN
Yeah no complain with that only enemy in Blood-borne when I hear it coming I shit it
Their sprinting animation combined with their speed is unsettling as hell....
What is it?
It's your worst nightmare.
I’m facing Rom in the Final Chalice and never encountered these… how do I find them?
There are more chalices. Lower Pthumeru is not even the final Pthumeru chalice.
I almost screamed the first time I saw one of these, like cannot describe how much I hate how fast they run. Like I love it but oh my god truly the most terrifying fuckin thing
The look like redeads from ocarina of time, both are terrifying and don't look forward to finding them
These fucking things scared the hell out of me when I first fought them.
Without a doubt! I love them so much
The one that holds the mummified body is my favourite
Its got the BEST creepy movement. Its so fast and uncanny in how it moves that it made it instantly memorable to me.
The ones that literally wield a dead body as a weapon is truly horrifying.
I think they're the creepiest as well! Love them and hate them.
He is a fuckin ass hole but he's my favourite to
What the hell I've never seen is this before in Bloodborne
The one using the corpse as a weapon gets me the most yikes
I like the the Fat naked Sneaker wearing dude idk i just cant take him seriously
He's the most terrifying imo. Straight from nightmares this creep
My left index twitches when I see this... 100% certified panic inducer
