- Farm early on. Farm. Farm. Throw all of your echoes into Vit and stamina until you get them to 25/25 then start throwing points into strength or skill. learn the basics for combat, I am sure there are YouTube videos.
- Early on there is some Hunter armor in the sewer that is probably the best attire in the game and it makes everything much easier -- especially the first boss fight.
- Ring the bell and bring someone in for help if you need it.
- UPGRADE your weapons. Can't stress this enough.
- Any enemy can be parried by shooting it during 'windup', even bosses.
- Learn the bosses attack patterns instead of just YOLOing it and it will make them much easier.
- Lock on with R3 and Dodge,dodge,dodge.
- Take it slow and enjoy the amazing atmosphere and combat -- this type of combat can only be found in Souls games, it is the main attraction of BB.
A little caveat here though, locking on can be a hinderance at times. Like with the first boss, best to just roll around constantly slashing his legs.
