- Starting out, the threaded cane is significantly harder to use than the other two options, the axe or the saw. I would recommend using one of the other two first.
- Focus mainly on survival, Vitality and Endurance or whatever they're called for the early game. Get those way high early game, just get more HP and Stamina because that keeps you alive. Weapons at low level have very little scaling, none of them do. So don't get disappointed that your favorite weapon has shit scaling, it'll get better. You can put a few points into STR or SKL to meet the equip requirements of weapons, but otherwise don't worry about those stats much. You have to upgrade them up to like +6 before you see lots of scaling. By the time you get the materials to get to +6 you'll be so high level that you won't have to worry about putting points into Vit and End anymore, then you can worry about damage stats like Strength, Skill, Arcane or Bloodtinge. Pick one or two of those to focus on. Strength and Skill are more important than Bloodtinge or Arcane but do whatever you want. Weapons actually have a gem system like diablo that lets you slightly modify / boost their scaling as well.
- The biggest thing about Bloodborne especially different from other Souls games is the regain system. Doing damage to enemies right after you take damage will automatically heal you for most of the damage you took, if you do enough damage. This makes Bloodborne a far more offensive game than souls games, also combined with the lack of shields means that playing almost a berzerker who intentionally takes some hits but dishes them back out right away is far more successful than the usual "turtle behind a shield" strategy from souls games. You'll have to get a feel for the timing of it, and obviously you still can't just take all the hits or you'll die, but you really want to be very fearless in Bloodborne compared to previous games.
- The other big change is that parrying and backstabs are out, instead you can do a special type of parry using guns only. Timing a gun shot at the right moment (takes lots of practice) will make the target vulnerable, pressing R1 quickly at this time will trigger a visceral attack. Visceral attacks do INSANE damage and are extremely powerful, some bosses can be taken down by a couple quick visceral attacks that would otherwise be very long and difficult fights. Its worth practicing how to do it.
- If you really want a last slightly spoilery tip to save yourself from possibly messing up something to do with the multiple endings: <div class="spoiler">DO NOT KILL IOSEFKA. DONT DO IT. If you do you get a really good crest you can't get otherwise, however doing so means you HAVE to save the whore Adrianna or else you CAN NOT fight the final boss. You'll be forced into one of the endings which is slightly less satisfying. If you want the crest, go save Adrianna first then you can kill Iosefka, but to be safe just don't kill Iosefka under any circumstances.</div> That's all, that's the only real thing you can do that shoots yourself in the foot permanently.
