I tried that but I’m not very good at this game so I still get chain sucked half the time.

Brainsuckers are very resistant to staggers and physical damage, with the exception of thrust damage. So if you have any kind of weapon that reliably thrusts (saw spear R2, sword/cane R2s, church pick, rakuyo), you can very quickly burn them down. A pity thrust attacks tend to be very stamina intensive.

Also, if a brainsucker starts waddling towards you at high speeds with lethal intent, then don't bother trying to stagger them out of it, they gain alot of stagger resistance, just dodge out of that grab attack they are about to do.

90% of the value of the Tiny Tonritus is using it to blast those grubby assholes in Upper Cathedral Ward, most of the remaining 10% is for that one spot in Nightmare of Mensis where there's like three Winter Lanterns in a tight corridor

I remember the first time I ‘bumped’ into him.

Rounded a corner and suddenly boom he was tumbling into me and pushed me back up the stairs into an enemy I was trying to avoid who then killed me. What a dungeon. :)

Winter Lanterns were annoying until I got the backstab timing down. If you dodge behind them right as they go for the grab and have a semi-quick charge attack, you can consistently deal with them without much issue. And since you can't take damage while in a visceral you'll probably avoid the frenzy damage as well.

It's really easy once you have the timing.

I can't promise it will live up to the hype, but I tried my best.
Man I have never done any winter lantern shenanigans. Rushing them with a topped off health pool is enough for me.

Mergo/Fishing Hamlet Lanterns are excellent gem farms when you don't have access to False Depth chalices (aka no PS Plus). Just be warned, you're going to gently caress up and die twice in a row without picking up your echoes, so treat your echoes as disposable in this farm. And, of course, wear as much discovery as possible.

Welp I just started my game over again so I could not stab Eileen and also not kill the Chapel Dweller. My favourite parts of games are always NPC interactions and the story and I just couldn’t resist!!!

Why on earth is that so expensive? I have a Joker figma that also came with a little Morgana and it didn't cost that much.

there's no better description for this thing than "naked baby rolling man" (a "merciless watcher" in some chalices)

Seems like theres a bunch of bosses in the dungeons not in the main game. Do they ever drop any loot or is it always more chalices for new dunjohns. Not really feeling the layout in these...

Chalices are the only way to get the Beast Claw weapon and the good gems but nothing unique outside of those

The top tier runes come from Chalices. Having 15% health and +20 stamina runes helps alot to get your build going.

It's the "Deluxe" Edition, the original Hunter came out a while back and this is a rerelease with the new weapon set included. All of their DX figures are about $120.

Chalices are for fighting your way through a mile of werewolves and berserker zombies to unlock a door... that only contains two lava spider bell maidens, and now that the doors are open, the spiders will bumrush you as soon as you spawn.
