Marz Hey Marz you should play the new Spider-Man game. Not going to spoil anything but it has a great story and great gameplay and it’s fucking SPIDER-MAN ffs lol idk just thought that’d be a good new game to start on your channel. Either way, have a great day! 😊
So what Simon meant about forefathers sins is that the burgenwerth scholars raided this village in the real world to find a great one named Kos (or some say Kosm). The villagers prayed to mother Kos to save them but the hunters killed Kos and they were cursed to become drunk with blood and get dragged to hunters nightmare. Orphan of Kos was born from his dead mother, the corpse of Kos.
It's crazy that you're almost done. I played this game from seeing u start it. I've finished it once and am almost done with new game plus. So thank you for playing this game and peeking my interest in this awesome game.
I guess it’s finally time for you to get more acquainted with the lore. Kos is a great one. Great ones are multidimensional beings with characteristics and intentions way beyond human understanding, that’s why knowledge of the great ones and their “eldritch truth” (i.e. Bloodborne’s insight) makes people lose their minds (frenzy). This is all based on the cosmic horror literature of H. P. Lovecraft. When Byrgenwerth (a college built for the study of the limits of human knowledge) discovered the existence of the great ones and their tainted old blood in the catacombs (chalice dungeons) beneath Yharnam, its leaderships split. Master Willem (the guy in the rocking chair overlooking Rom’s lake at Byrgenwerth) believed in human evolution through insight (pure knowledge) while Laurence (the fiery beast in the Hunter’s Nightmare) believed only the old blood could truly lift humanity. Laurence left Byrgenwerth and created the Healing Church (that’s why he was the First Vicar). The Church started treating people with old blood and became wealthy and famous for it’s “blood healing”, but there was a side effect: people could turn into beasts under the influence of the moon. When this blood plague got out of control, they had to employ and train hunters to kill those who had turned. Gehrman was the first hunter and Maria was his student. When the Church heard the carcass of a pregnant great one (Kos) had washed up on the shore of a fishing village, they immediately sent a party, led by Gehrman and Maria, to study the village and its contaminated inhabitants, and to retrieve Kos’ unborn child. They butchered and experimented on the villagers and removed the Orphan of Kos from the womb, taking its umbilical cord (one of four cords you can find in the game) and delivering it to Willem for study. This atrocity led the hunters to be cursed and those who became drunk with blood would be forever trapped in the Hunter’s Nightmare. Maria even threw her beloved weapon, the Rakuyo, down a well in disgust (some time before commiting suicide and ending up in the Nightmare herself). Gehrman ended up trapped in the Hunter’s Dream, forced to guide hunters for god knows how long, but I won’t spoil why or by whom. Back in Yharnam, the upper casts of the church divided in two branches. The Choir, based in Upper Cathedral Ward, was tasked with effectively managing the Healing Church (and capitalizing on Yharnam’s blood healing craze) and communing/learning from Ebrietas, the “left behind” great one found alone in the chalice dungeons and which ended up taking up residence in a Church facility (until you killed her). The School of Mensis, led by Micolash, established itself in the Unseen Village and did research that more closely resembled that of old Byrgenwerth (they even kidnapped people for the experiments, that’s why you were once kidnapped by a Snatcher). In their desperate attempt to commune with a great one, they donned their Mensis cages and used their umbilical cord (the second of the four you can find in game) to perform the Mensis Ritual. To say the ritual was a failure is an understatement: it killed nearly everyone in the village, destroyed the minds of the Mensis students, created the Nightmare of Mensis (where you fought Micolash’s conscience) and caused the Blood Moon to rise, which made the beastly scourge so so much worse. Rom, the vacuous spider, was Byrgenwerth’s successful attempt at creating a great one (using Willem’s umbilical cord), and they used her power to hide the effects of the Mensis Ritual from the rest of the populace. When you killed her, you removed the veil that separated the waking world and the dream/nightmare world, exposing the ritual and turning the game into full blown Lovecraft horror. Phew… there’s so much more to the lore, but hopefully this helps it make more sense. Thanks for all the great moments! EDIT: It was Byrgenwerth and not the Church that sent Gehrman and Maria to the fishing hamlet (as the Orphan’s umbilical cord was delivered to Willem, not Laurence). This means the whole Kos episode probably happened before Laurence left Byrgenwerth to found the Healing Church, recruting Gehrman as its first hunter in the process. I should’ve read this whole thing again before posting, sorry =|
It only adds about 40 more damage per hit. Maybe 50. My rakuyo is +10 and does 502 dang but I'm higher level and in new game plus. And she only has it at +8. Gotta give her credit she did pretty good against Kos with the rakuyo at +8. I wouldn't have gone in with a +8 weapon against him
@@sablemae8853 Kill them? I know it was 3yrs ago but this was Marz we were talking about lol, she cant kill them and manage her hp at the same time. Besides all you have to do is run past 1 and pop a sedative when your frenzy meter gets too high.. Killing them is a waste of time.
I found Laurence to be way harder than Orphan for some reason. Apparently Orphan is ranked by the community as the hardest boss in any SoulsBorne game, which makes me think maybe I got lucky.
Same here. I killed the Orphan on my 1st or 2nd try (can't remember exactly), although it was a very challenging fight and I got pretty close of dying several times. Several other bosses of Bloodborne, I also killed them on the first try. And YET... I died around 40 times against some bosses of Dark Souls III. Did I just get lucky with the Orphan of Kos ??? :/
It's always like this with SoulsBorne games, some bosses are hard for some people and easy for others. Depends a lot on your play style, weapon choice etc. I thought Laurence was a push-over but Orphan destroyed me, took something like 30 tries, even had to stop and watch videos on youtube of how to kill him it got so bad.
Orphan is more mechanical and calculated in its moveset, so anyone actually learning as they go can get the hang of it before long. Laurence is just one of those overly tall dodge fests with AoE effects that pretty much rely on luck with its move choices, slight luck with dodging through frame perfect moves, and vial tanking everything, especially in the first stages.
It's easier to dance with the Orphan if you're good at dodging. Laurence has a lot of health so people who aren't used to sticking it out will probably do worse against him.
If you go back to the guy that says did you hear my bell that's where you're supposed to use the key at and it's also the guy that keeps on invading you.
Orphans soundtrack is one of my favs of the entire game. I love how it starts all slow, morose, and haunting for the first phase and then it kicks it up to 1000 in his 2nd phase. Bombastic drums, fast tempo, the string accompaniment. It's all so flawlessly executed and sets your nerves and adrenaline on fire 🔥🔥🔥 thank the stars for FROMSOFT
Wow marz !! I don't know if you remember my comment but i was that guy from Holland who thought your channel would get big and I'm amazed!! I have seen you play this master piece all the way lol started playing around the same time as you and i have finished this game now around 6 times .. yeah i just wanna tell you that the channel has now 30K more subs before you started this game and damm this channel is growing fast ! I also would say this game has three endings and its really fun to play all of them with diffrent builds (stats) and diffrent weapons i also hardly recommend you try the challence dungeons therr are secret bosses there (one of them u have seen in this game but couldn't fight) so please do !! Keep making great content marz !❤❤ hope all is well with you!
Undergound Cell Inner Chamber Key is for a cell after the Underground Corpse Pile (After the Ludwig boss) There are three of that red invaders in Fishing Hamlet. Each one of them gives you one part of the set. And the last part of the set (Bloodletter) is in the cell that I mentioned before, you can get it after killing Brador (The main asassin who invades to your world). Killing Brador in his cell will prevent him from invading you anymore. And for the Orphan of Kos, you can parry him or stab him in the back, it helps you alot and deals big damage.
Damn you’re actually pretty good! Your first try at Orphan of Kos was impressive! You said you were doing bad with dodging but I was thinking the opposite!
"I'm not doing any damage" she says, while doing over 1000 damage on a three-hit-combo lol :D Marz your damage is more than enough, he just has a fuckton of health.
I know other people have told you this...but I HOPE you do get just how GREAT you've been doing with this game. I also add myself to the list of those wanting you to go for the other Souls games. They do have slower combat than Bloodborne...and actual armor & shields...but you "can" get through the games without them. Anyway, I've REALLY enjoyed watching you take this journey through one of the most enjoyably dark...twisted & beautifully designed worlds ever created in a video game...& I too will miss having new BB videos to look forward to on your channel...
You're more than welcome! Btw...I'm glad I found your channel, & although Bloodborne will be missed, I'm looking forward to watching whatever new game series you decide to take on next. "Happy hunting...may your channel continue to grow...AND...may the good blood guide your way :) ..."
Holy shit that rally potential on the Church Pick. I never knew that weapon was that good. You can just stand in Laurence's fire and keep hitting without sustaining any damage.
The Church Pick has a "serration" bonus modifier that does extra damage to heavily transformed beasts, which is why you do more damage to Laurence. Other weapons have this modifier too, in addition to other modifiers that do bonus damage to other enemy types.
The orphan is just the best boss in all of soulsborne to me. Hes just the ultimate challenge. The sense of relief you'll get from beating him will be so worth the pain of fighting him
She's not that op. She was using a +8 weapon in both boss fights. She's level 120 but has a lot of stats in stamina. Could've kept that at 25-30 and put it in skill. So it's not a super strong lvl 120. She's only doing in the 300s damage wise. Op would be 500 or more dang in ng
Hey i would like to give you some tips. Most of the time when you're dodging you're doing it a bit earlier than the right time. I've noticed that for both Orphan and Laurence. Just be patient and play around with move windows to see which is the right time to dodge an attack. Also Orphan is by far the hardest boss of blood borne as voted by the community. He is extremely fast, doesn't give you large windows to heal and that second phase is batshit crazy and all around the place. Just take your time, be patient and have fun. You need an extremely good technique in dodging, perfect timing and some luck to get through that boss. It basically exemplifies the challenge of Soulsborne series PS: It took me 85 attempts to clear Orphan, which when compared to, didn't take any boss in the whole series more than around 30 tries. Orphan is very hard and challenging. Also those screams are earrape. Orphan literally made me abandon Blood borne for 6 months and meanwhile I completed Witcher 3 2 times lol before getting back again
That buff that the bell hunter aplied was lead elixir. I rly had a hard time in the well but you did awesome. The "cheese" way in the well is to use lead elixir to avoid getting staggered by the shark bois and if you hit one of them with shaman bow blade they start to fight eachother
Fromsoft does an amazing job at telling their stories by giving players a unique type of freedom to make choices. From character customization, to killable NPC'S that have their own backgrounds, beliefs, and quests, to factions, dialogue options, items/descriptions, optional areas/bosses, even clues in the environment about the lore that we can speculate, and choose to believe or not. All of this creates an amazing experience that you can't get in a lot of other games.
Great first attempt with the Orphan of Kos! Alot of people think that he is the hardesr boss in the dlc but i personally feel Laurence is the hardest. You have to respond to his movements and if you don’t youll get punished. The orphan gives you more freedom, but if you managed to dodge through his attacks you should be able to get some good hits in.
You make me want to play again. This is definitely the most alluring game I’ve ever gotten wrapped up in. My little boy has even become pretty skilled in it.
Bloodborne is a favorite of mine, so it’s been great seeing you get through it. I absolutely lost it when you mass murdered the slug people right outside the orphan
Fire paper is better for Kos, he changes the trend. The part of the fishing Village you ignored have some important blood stone chunks. There’s also one hidden near the hut where the lamp is, near where the giant shark fights you. Go for the area with the singing brain ladies, there you will find a blood rock. Equip a rune to increase frenzy resist first. Don’t worry, Laurence and Kos are both very, very tough. You’re doing well, you’ll get them!
Yeah was waiting for this since the beginning... The Orphan of Kos made me rage but the fight for me was the best experience in bloodborne, because at the end of the fight I was left with no vials and no bullets and it took me everything to finally achieve victory!
"am i supposed to be a higher level?" no, i would say you're pretty overlevelled. i don't think i've ever levelled past 85-90~. but yes, having a +10 weapon is important.
So you've finally met Orphan of Kos - good luck. He's tough in that second phase. He's similar to Maria in that you can parry to make this fight a little easier, and I'd actually suggest doing so.
46:09 Yeah his theme is great and it gets really sad near the end, I can never decide if it's either his or Ludwig's theme that is my favorite. You must have figured already but this is the guy whose skull was in Vicar Amelia boss room, she was praying to it, and he was the one who was talking to Master Willem in the cutscene - "Fear the Old Blood" - but he didn't fear it enough. He is the founder (or at least the reformer) of the Healing Church, truly a tragic figure, he wanted to be great but instead turned into this. You can say he is the main responsible for all the events that been happening in Yharnam, specially regarding the beast plague, but there is also plenty of blame in Master Willem and Micolash and the last Boss in the game as well.
The hunter that keeps coming after you when you hear the bell ring is Braddock the Church Assassin (Simon's killer). He drinks a Lead Elixir, which allows him to shrug off your attacks (although, in his case, it also increases his damage resistance, IME.) He wields the only Strength/Bloodtinge weapon in the game: the Bloodletter, capable of dealing Frenzy to its targets and to its wielder.
so, not sure if you noticed this yet, but the entire fishing hamlet exists in the sky. one of those snail mermaid guys falls from the sky in that little hidden area where you found the pizza cutter near the start of the DLC. very subtle foreshadowing for a rock hitting earth lol
whenever I am close to defeating a boss, i will check how many bullets i have left and take out my bow or pistol, throwing knives to finish the job from afar...
Great play through so far! Even got me and my wife replaying the game! I would suggest Aegon of Astora's Bloodborne Lorethrough videos if you really want an in-depth look at the games story and lore. Far better than anything else out there. He also aptly demonstrates why the Hunter praying at the surgery alter is definetly not Vicar Amelia as some have suggested.
Gherman was in love with Maria. That's why he made the doll in her likeness. If you hit the doll in the dream white fluids spring from it, (as the only thing in the game) indicating that Gherman uses it for......well, you know!
Halfing the Orphan's health on the first try was awesome. He is definitely the hardest boss, outside of depth 5 chalice dungeons. My favorite part was,' I have to heal, you F***er!' 😂🤣Aahhhh, good stuff.
26:38 THAT is the attitude of a soulsborne fan. I love it! (30 seconds later) So much for that. You really should go and kill those guys because that is where those two goodies are that you saw when fighting those two shark guys. I hope you go back there. 30:28 Lol i see you're channeling you inner Micolash. Haha, that's the first time you didnt do your regular outro. It was funny. 53,768
Kos...or some say Kosm, Tips: -Kos is fucking tough, I'd say the toughest in the whole game. He hits hard, is super aggressive, quick, and can jump super high in his second phase along with a bunch of other different abilities. -The first phase is ridiculously easy once you find out the trick. First, equip every Carlyle Rune that strengthens your Visceral Attacks and/or gives you health from Viscerals. You want your Visceral Attacks to be super powerful. -Now, the trick to the first phase is waiting for when Kos to do his jump over attack and then do a visceral attack on his behind when he lands and misses you. You'll pretty much always know when he's going to do this attack as he starts to run towards you. Now, sometimes this can be tricky as there is another attack where he runs to you in the same way but doesn't jump over you. Just be quick to realize which one he is about to do. -Kos' jump attack is not hard to dodge, you just have to be confident. The game expects you to dodge backwards so Kos will always overshoot you, to be 100% safe you can maybe move one, tiny inch forward after he jumps into the air. Do. Not. Dodge. Track his jump until he lands and then Visceral attack him from behind, it will take a bit before he recovers from the jump attack so you have a good window. -Just keep repeating that pattern for the first phase. Kos Jump Attack. Visceral. Move away. Wait for another Jump Attack. -The Second Phase is cancer and where the trouble will lie. First, GET. OFF. THE. BEACH. You need to immediately get into the water. Kos has an attack where he'll call lightning down from the shore and it's basically impossible to dodge on land. You can only dodge between the lighting while in the water. You'll understand once you see. Don't bother trying to visceral him or do any attack to interrupt his call for lightning, he's completely immune from being interrupted from completing the attack. He can be damaged, just not interrupted. The lightning will come. -Now, you can try and still wait for a jump attack and do a visceral to beat him in his second phase, but it is really tricky. He no longer does his usual jump attack, but does a combination of smashes on the ground before finishing the last part of the combo with a high jump attack. It's this last attack that you literally need to calmly walk under, not dodge, but walk under to be in position to Visceral him. Again, it requires a lot of confidence but if you pull it off then you can get a perfect Visceral. -With regards to a Visceral Attack in the second phase, if you manage to pull it off you can effectively end the fight there. Unlike the first phase, you can essentially chain visceral attacks against him and win so long as you are able to pull off a visceral on him. You do not need to back away after each successful visceral, just keep charging up your attack and hitting him everytime he gets up. The problem is the difficulty of even getting a visceral on him in the first place. -Lastly, since the visceral window is very limited, the next best strategy is to fight him cold. Learn all his moves in this phase and dodge like crazy. You don't want to be aggressive in this second phase, you want to wait for one or two moments when he's open to hit him. His attacks hit hard and quick in this phase. Good Luck.
Now you have a taste of good ol' Orphan of Kos. Welcome to the club. For Laurence, get fire resist gear and Fading Lake runes (or Communion runes so that you can carry more blood vials). For Orphan, definitely get as many Communion runes as you can, because his 2nd phase has a lot of attacks that will kill you if you're not topped-off. This is definitely a boss that kills the greedy. Also, when he spins his placenta weapon around, you can avoid it by placing yourself between it and Orphan (the nerve attaching the placenta to him doesn't hurt you). For boosted healing, you might want to switch the Hunter rune for the Radiance rune (to get more healing per blood vial). To get even more additional healing, you can (with enough Arcane) use the Choir Bell hunter tool: it costs 7 QS bullets, IIRC, and it heals more health than a blood vial (somewhere between 50%-60% of your max health), but takes a bit longer to use than a blood vial.
One comment I read in another video theorized that Kos is actually the corpse Lady Maria is referring to when she says "A corpse should be left well enough alone".
This might sound mean but I'm glad your a real gamer. Just found your channel and now I'm subed. It's nice to see is all. Hope you either play DS or DS3. Maybe even Demon Souls. (But I kinda wouldn't recomend it)
One tip with Rakuyo, in one on one encounters I've found it to be much better one handed. Longer reach and lunging attacks. But it's better two handed for crowd control or really fast enemies.
Laurence’s 2nd Phase tip: stay on his left side but not behind him obvi, dodge left and stay left during his Ground slamming Attacks and then dodge to his right when he swipes toward you... follow a pattern too when you hit him cuz he has a small window to be hit during this phase of “Strike, strike, and prepare to dodge”, also try to save your blood vials too, you use them when you have plenty of health already. Good luck
Welcome to Yharnam. We have blood-soaked amenities and skin treatments that will leave you glowing like a starry night sky. Enjoy your stay. On a more serious note though, I hope you give some of the fight clubs a chance. There are some really cool players in the community who can show you the ropes. Good luck with your playthroughs
Guys it’s a 1st playthrough, she can do whatever she wants with her echoes😂 Love the soulsborne genre! Hope marz continues to go down this rabbit hole ❤️
Don't worry so much about being "overlevelled". As far as I'm concerned, any blood echos you have, you earned. No reason to waste them. Level as high as you want.
One thing is obtaining echoes through just going through the game and another is to farm them. I'm not gonna complain about overleveling because her enjoyment of the game and not giving up is the most important thing, but it does make a difference to be higher leveled (your defenses are raised substantially).
Unfortunately "overleveling" is very much a thing in Bloodborne. Physical defense raises automatically with each level up until around 150, so it is not difficult to tank through what were meant to be rather difficult encounters. However, that is not to say that everybody who, for example, fights Orphan at level 120 is going to have a really easy time and beat him on their first try. Though, that does happen and leads to wildly disparate perceptions of difficulty based on what level they were at the time.
So, some fun facts. You just witnessed the Orphan of Kos being born from the corpse of Kos. It then proceeded to attack you with its placenta. I fucking love Bloodborne. XD
🤪🤪🤪🤪
Marz Hey Marz you should play the new Spider-Man game. Not going to spoil anything but it has a great story and great gameplay and it’s fucking SPIDER-MAN ffs lol idk just thought that’d be a good new game to start on your channel. Either way, have a great day! 😊

U gotta kill those winter lanterns and go to the area past the one to the right. There's a blood rock to get a weapon to +10

It only adds about 40 more damage per hit. Maybe 50. My rakuyo is +10 and does 502 dang but I'm higher level and in new game plus. And she only has it at +8. Gotta give her credit she did pretty good against Kos with the rakuyo at +8. I wouldn't have gone in with a +8 weapon against him
She was only doing 270-280 dang each hit from what I saw. That's not that high

omar717 Laurence is just a really long fight. It’s not that difficult just doing the same thing 10000 times
It's always like this with SoulsBorne games, some bosses are hard for some people and easy for others. Depends a lot on your play style, weapon choice etc. I thought Laurence was a push-over but Orphan destroyed me, took something like 30 tries, even had to stop and watch videos on youtube of how to kill him it got so bad.
Orphan is more mechanical and calculated in its moveset, so anyone actually learning as they go can get the hang of it before long.
Laurence is just one of those overly tall dodge fests with AoE effects that pretty much rely on luck with its move choices, slight luck with dodging through frame perfect moves, and vial tanking everything, especially in the first stages.

Marz after first encounter with Orphan: "This boss was made for me."
Orphan of Kos: "We will see about that."
"Can you get off of that thing." That's his mom, Marz.
27:50 :-D You're just consumed with bloodlust, like other hunters who have lost their minds. Someone like Eileen is coming for you soon.

Orphans soundtrack is one of my favs of the entire game. I love how it starts all slow, morose, and haunting for the first phase and then it kicks it up to 1000 in his 2nd phase. Bombastic drums, fast tempo, the string accompaniment. It's all so flawlessly executed and sets your nerves and adrenaline on fire 🔥🔥🔥 thank the stars for FROMSOFT
Slave Knight Gael though
YEEEHAAAW.MP3
Wow marz !! I don't know if you remember my comment but i was that guy from Holland who thought your channel would get big and I'm amazed!! I have seen you play this master piece all the way lol started playing around the same time as you and i have finished this game now around 6 times .. yeah i just wanna tell you that the channel has now 30K more subs before you started this game and damm this channel is growing fast ! I also would say this game has three endings and its really fun to play all of them with diffrent builds (stats) and diffrent weapons i also hardly recommend you try the challence dungeons therr are secret bosses there (one of them u have seen in this game but couldn't fight) so please do !! Keep making great content marz !❤❤ hope all is well with you!
Undergound Cell Inner Chamber Key is for a cell after the Underground Corpse Pile (After the Ludwig boss)
There are three of that red invaders in Fishing Hamlet. Each one of them gives you one part of the set.
And the last part of the set (Bloodletter) is in the cell that I mentioned before, you can get it after killing Brador (The main asassin who invades to your world).
Killing Brador in his cell will prevent him from invading you anymore.
And for the Orphan of Kos, you can parry him or stab him in the back, it helps you alot and deals big damage.
To add to this there's also one in Mensis.
Damn you’re actually pretty good! Your first try at Orphan of Kos was impressive! You said you were doing bad with dodging but I was thinking the opposite!
Same
"I'm not doing any damage" she says, while doing over 1000 damage on a three-hit-combo lol :D Marz your damage is more than enough, he just has a fuckton of health.
I know other people have told you this...but I HOPE you do get just how GREAT you've been doing with this game. I also add myself to the list of those wanting you to go for the other Souls games. They do have slower combat than Bloodborne...and actual armor & shields...but you "can" get through the games without them. Anyway, I've REALLY enjoyed watching you take this journey through one of the most enjoyably dark...twisted & beautifully designed worlds ever created in a video game...& I too will miss having new BB videos to look forward to on your channel...
Thank you 😊
You're more than welcome! Btw...I'm glad I found your channel, & although Bloodborne will be missed, I'm looking forward to watching whatever new game series you decide to take on next. "Happy hunting...may your channel continue to grow...AND...may the good blood guide your way :) ..."
Marz encountering the Winter Lantern: "Should I even bother? Oh, I really want to bother, though." 😂
and few seconds later: "I dont even want to mess with it!"
Who else loves to hear the winter lantern singing?
"Am I underleveled?" Lol good one
Lol found the virgin with a superior complex
Holy shit that rally potential on the Church Pick. I never knew that weapon was that good. You can just stand in Laurence's fire and keep hitting without sustaining any damage.
I recommend fighting Kos in the water when he enters the second phase and no, it's okay if you get into the water.
I didn't even know you could touch it hahaha. This is good to know!
You can actually go quite far out. I didn't know this either for ages.
The Church Pick has a "serration" bonus modifier that does extra damage to heavily transformed beasts, which is why you do more damage to Laurence. Other weapons have this modifier too, in addition to other modifiers that do bonus damage to other enemy types.
The orphan is just the best boss in all of soulsborne to me. Hes just the ultimate challenge. The sense of relief you'll get from beating him will be so worth the pain of fighting him
You're in for a world of pain with these last 2 bosses marz 😂😂 make sure you have counter so we can see how many times it takes you
Stephen Sporman show pretty op
She’s*
She died a lot. Op'd doesn't really matter. Better gems will do more damage. That's how you take out the bosses quickly.
She's not that op. She was using a +8 weapon in both boss fights. She's level 120 but has a lot of stats in stamina. Could've kept that at 25-30 and put it in skill. So it's not a super strong lvl 120. She's only doing in the 300s damage wise. Op would be 500 or more dang in ng
With the orphan if Kos you'll want to use the music box. This will help to drown out the desperate screams of your hunter hahaa.
😂😂😂😂
Hey i would like to give you some tips. Most of the time when you're dodging you're doing it a bit earlier than the right time. I've noticed that for both Orphan and Laurence. Just be patient and play around with move windows to see which is the right time to dodge an attack. Also Orphan is by far the hardest boss of blood borne as voted by the community. He is extremely fast, doesn't give you large windows to heal and that second phase is batshit crazy and all around the place. Just take your time, be patient and have fun. You need an extremely good technique in dodging, perfect timing and some luck to get through that boss. It basically exemplifies the challenge of Soulsborne series
PS: It took me 85 attempts to clear Orphan, which when compared to, didn't take any boss in the whole series more than around 30 tries. Orphan is very hard and challenging. Also those screams are earrape. Orphan literally made me abandon Blood borne for 6 months and meanwhile I completed Witcher 3 2 times lol before getting back again
I was watching this when I finally beat the orphan for the first time!!! Thank you so much!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I loved this episode so much!! I am super impressed at how well you did the first try of Orphan of Kos, I'm sure you'll master him soon enough!
Everybody gangsta 'till the orphan lets out a Tom scream.
That buff that the bell hunter aplied was lead elixir. I rly had a hard time in the well but you did awesome. The "cheese" way in the well is to use lead elixir to avoid getting staggered by the shark bois and if you hit one of them with shaman bow blade they start to fight eachother
Fromsoft does an amazing job at telling their stories by giving players a unique type of freedom to make choices. From character customization, to killable NPC'S that have their own backgrounds, beliefs, and quests, to factions, dialogue options, items/descriptions, optional areas/bosses, even clues in the environment about the lore that we can speculate, and choose to believe or not. All of this creates an amazing experience that you can't get in a lot of other games.
"Look what you did Laurence, you made a fucking mess, dude!" XDD
Oh my.. the orhpan.. i have no words...best of luck Marz!
You were hired to babysit the orphan of kos, Not hunt him, Damnit!
Great first attempt with the Orphan of Kos! Alot of people think that he is the hardesr boss in the dlc but i personally feel Laurence is the hardest.
You have to respond to his movements and if you don’t youll get punished. The orphan gives you more freedom, but if you managed to dodge through his attacks you should be able to get some good hits in.
I remember the first time I beat orphan, my hands where shaking so much I can’t even express what I felt when killed him
You make me want to play again. This is definitely the most alluring game I’ve ever gotten wrapped up in. My little boy has even become pretty skilled in it.
He made a video some time back. Caysin plays. 6yr old pays bloodborne
Bloodborne is a favorite of mine, so it’s been great seeing you get through it. I absolutely lost it when you mass murdered the slug people right outside the orphan
Fire paper is better for Kos, he changes the trend. The part of the fishing Village you ignored have some important blood stone chunks. There’s also one hidden near the hut where the lamp is, near where the giant shark fights you.
Go for the area with the singing brain ladies, there you will find a blood rock. Equip a rune to increase frenzy resist first.
Don’t worry, Laurence and Kos are both very, very tough. You’re doing well, you’ll get them!
The music for Laurence is just unreal
Yeah was waiting for this since the beginning... The Orphan of Kos made me rage but the fight for me was the best experience in bloodborne, because at the end of the fight I was left with no vials and no bullets and it took me everything to finally achieve victory!
I cant wait! I love your vids! Gotta wait until I'm on break to watch, but calling it now, you were totally grossed out by the Orphan
I was XD
@@Marzz yeah the whole "hitting you with the placenta" thing is pretty disturbing
"am i supposed to be a higher level?" no, i would say you're pretty overlevelled. i don't think i've ever levelled past 85-90~. but yes, having a +10 weapon is important.
I like the way you nod first then say 'Hey Guys'. :)
So you've finally met Orphan of Kos - good luck. He's tough in that second phase. He's similar to Maria in that you can parry to make this fight a little easier, and I'd actually suggest doing so.
Best endscreen ever! :)
"I hear the bell now, he comes again and again" the same happened to you
You’re doing yourself a massive disservice by going into the Kos fight with a +7 weapon...
Not as important as gems
46:09 Yeah his theme is great and it gets really sad near the end, I can never decide if it's either his or Ludwig's theme that is my favorite. You must have figured already but this is the guy whose skull was in Vicar Amelia boss room, she was praying to it, and he was the one who was talking to Master Willem in the cutscene - "Fear the Old Blood" - but he didn't fear it enough. He is the founder (or at least the reformer) of the Healing Church, truly a tragic figure, he wanted to be great but instead turned into this. You can say he is the main responsible for all the events that been happening in Yharnam, specially regarding the beast plague, but there is also plenty of blame in Master Willem and Micolash and the last Boss in the game as well.
You really play this game well dont be frustrated ..and i like the honesty in your gameplay walkthrough
The bowblade is a great weapon if you have high skill and bloodtinge. The bow can do some very high damage.
Awesome video marz 👍😎
Laurence Phase 2. wait till he spits lava, 1 or 2 hits, walk away and wait he does it again.
Marz made fiery, lava-puking Laurence look cool in those sun glasses in the end lol
The hunter that keeps coming after you when you hear the bell ring is Braddock the Church Assassin (Simon's killer). He drinks a Lead Elixir, which allows him to shrug off your attacks (although, in his case, it also increases his damage resistance, IME.) He wields the only Strength/Bloodtinge weapon in the game: the Bloodletter, capable of dealing Frenzy to its targets and to its wielder.
The Infamous Rakuyo Marz such a Gem of a Weapon seriously !!! A Great Slternative to the Blade of Mercy 🙌🙌🙌
just stumbled on this video as ive only just started playing bloodborne recently! you are awesome and very beautiful
so, not sure if you noticed this yet, but the entire fishing hamlet exists in the sky. one of those snail mermaid guys falls from the sky in that little hidden area where you found the pizza cutter near the start of the DLC. very subtle foreshadowing for a rock hitting earth lol
Loved the ending! The lust for blood finally got you.
When you get spooked and laugh it’s funny. No 🍤 for u and oooooooh so close
whenever I am close to defeating a boss, i will check how many bullets i have left and take out my bow or pistol, throwing knives to finish the job from afar...
Great play through so far! Even got me and my wife replaying the game!
I would suggest Aegon of Astora's Bloodborne Lorethrough videos if you really want an in-depth look at the games story and lore. Far better than anything else out there. He also aptly demonstrates why the Hunter praying at the surgery alter is definetly not Vicar Amelia as some have suggested.
Marz if are out of blood vials against Laurence 2nd phase you can use long range weapons like the cannon or the bow and arcane magic too.
Gherman was in love with Maria. That's why he made the doll in her likeness. If you hit the doll in the dream white fluids spring from it, (as the only thing in the game) indicating that Gherman uses it for......well, you know!
Small tip against Kos. When he does the jumping attack, just walk forward. The attack will miss and leave it open for a charged strike.
That ending tho. 💯
Halfing the Orphan's health on the first try was awesome. He is definitely the hardest boss, outside of depth 5 chalice dungeons. My favorite part was,' I have to heal, you F***er!' 😂🤣Aahhhh, good stuff.
Laurence is definitely an A-hole too with his legless-lava barfin' A$$ 😡
30:28 made me smirk
For Laurence's second phase, dodge to his right not left!
Great video as always btw I tip my hunter cap to you
26:38 THAT is the attitude of a soulsborne fan. I love it! (30 seconds later) So much for that. You really should go and kill those guys because that is where those two goodies are that you saw when fighting those two shark guys. I hope you go back there.
30:28 Lol i see you're channeling you inner Micolash.
Haha, that's the first time you didnt do your regular outro. It was funny.

Kos...or some say Kosm, Tips:
-Kos is fucking tough, I'd say the toughest in the whole game. He hits hard, is super aggressive, quick, and can jump super high in his second phase along with a bunch of other different abilities.
-The first phase is ridiculously easy once you find out the trick. First, equip every Carlyle Rune that strengthens your Visceral Attacks and/or gives you health from Viscerals. You want your Visceral Attacks to be super powerful.
-Now, the trick to the first phase is waiting for when Kos to do his jump over attack and then do a visceral attack on his behind when he lands and misses you. You'll pretty much always know when he's going to do this attack as he starts to run towards you. Now, sometimes this can be tricky as there is another attack where he runs to you in the same way but doesn't jump over you. Just be quick to realize which one he is about to do.
-Kos' jump attack is not hard to dodge, you just have to be confident. The game expects you to dodge backwards so Kos will always overshoot you, to be 100% safe you can maybe move one, tiny inch forward after he jumps into the air. Do. Not. Dodge. Track his jump until he lands and then Visceral attack him from behind, it will take a bit before he recovers from the jump attack so you have a good window.
-Just keep repeating that pattern for the first phase. Kos Jump Attack. Visceral. Move away. Wait for another Jump Attack.
-The Second Phase is cancer and where the trouble will lie. First, GET. OFF. THE. BEACH. You need to immediately get into the water. Kos has an attack where he'll call lightning down from the shore and it's basically impossible to dodge on land. You can only dodge between the lighting while in the water. You'll understand once you see. Don't bother trying to visceral him or do any attack to interrupt his call for lightning, he's completely immune from being interrupted from completing the attack. He can be damaged, just not interrupted. The lightning will come.
-Now, you can try and still wait for a jump attack and do a visceral to beat him in his second phase, but it is really tricky. He no longer does his usual jump attack, but does a combination of smashes on the ground before finishing the last part of the combo with a high jump attack. It's this last attack that you literally need to calmly walk under, not dodge, but walk under to be in position to Visceral him. Again, it requires a lot of confidence but if you pull it off then you can get a perfect Visceral.
-With regards to a Visceral Attack in the second phase, if you manage to pull it off you can effectively end the fight there. Unlike the first phase, you can essentially chain visceral attacks against him and win so long as you are able to pull off a visceral on him. You do not need to back away after each successful visceral, just keep charging up your attack and hitting him everytime he gets up. The problem is the difficulty of even getting a visceral on him in the first place.
-Lastly, since the visceral window is very limited, the next best strategy is to fight him cold. Learn all his moves in this phase and dodge like crazy. You don't want to be aggressive in this second phase, you want to wait for one or two moments when he's open to hit him. His attacks hit hard and quick in this phase.
Good Luck.
the bubbly sounds of the enemies are so funny
Now you have a taste of good ol' Orphan of Kos. Welcome to the club.
For Laurence, get fire resist gear and Fading Lake runes (or Communion runes so that you can carry more blood vials).
For Orphan, definitely get as many Communion runes as you can, because his 2nd phase has a lot of attacks that will kill you if you're not topped-off. This is definitely a boss that kills the greedy. Also, when he spins his placenta weapon around, you can avoid it by placing yourself between it and Orphan (the nerve attaching the placenta to him doesn't hurt you).
For boosted healing, you might want to switch the Hunter rune for the Radiance rune (to get more healing per blood vial). To get even more additional healing, you can (with enough Arcane) use the Choir Bell hunter tool: it costs 7 QS bullets, IIRC, and it heals more health than a blood vial (somewhere between 50%-60% of your max health), but takes a bit longer to use than a blood vial.
Your channel is amazing i love the games you play
21:23 singlehandedly my favourite moment good loooooord
One comment I read in another video theorized that Kos is actually the corpse Lady Maria is referring to when she says "A corpse should be left well enough alone".
New viiiiiiiiiiiiiid Yay!!!!! 0:14 and you rekt us......
Praise be Orphan, become one with cauliflower and tentacle arms.
This might sound mean but I'm glad your a real gamer. Just found your channel and now I'm subed. It's nice to see is all. Hope you either play DS or DS3. Maybe even Demon Souls. (But I kinda wouldn't recomend it)
Bad Laurence! No going lava in the church. We do that outside.
Look at him, he knows what he did.
One tip with Rakuyo, in one on one encounters I've found it to be much better one handed. Longer reach and lunging attacks. But it's better two handed for crowd control or really fast enemies.
Another amazing marz, ur one of my favorite youtubers
Laurence’s 2nd Phase tip: stay on his left side but not behind him obvi, dodge left and stay left during his Ground slamming Attacks and then dodge to his right when he swipes toward you... follow a pattern too when you hit him cuz he has a small window to be hit during this phase of “Strike, strike, and prepare to dodge”, also try to save your blood vials too, you use them when you have plenty of health already. Good luck
The theme of Laurence, one of the best in the whole game ❤
Instictual... love that word. 10:50
Welcome to Yharnam. We have blood-soaked amenities and skin treatments that will leave you glowing like a starry night sky. Enjoy your stay.
On a more serious note though, I hope you give some of the fight clubs a chance. There are some really cool players in the community who can show you the ropes. Good luck with your playthroughs
Wooo all hail the butterfly fetus shrimp haha
The scariest baby ever...and also one of the most tragic in fiction.
Great gamer, great channel love your vids!
Guys it’s a 1st playthrough, she can do whatever she wants with her echoes😂
Love the soulsborne genre! Hope marz continues to go down this rabbit hole ❤️
Just what I needed at the moment :) :)
Don't worry so much about being "overlevelled". As far as I'm concerned, any blood echos you have, you earned. No reason to waste them. Level as high as you want.
One thing is obtaining echoes through just going through the game and another is to farm them. I'm not gonna complain about overleveling because her enjoyment of the game and not giving up is the most important thing, but it does make a difference to be higher leveled (your defenses are raised substantially).
Unfortunately "overleveling" is very much a thing in Bloodborne. Physical defense raises automatically with each level up until around 150, so it is not difficult to tank through what were meant to be rather difficult encounters. However, that is not to say that everybody who, for example, fights Orphan at level 120 is going to have a really easy time and beat him on their first try. Though, that does happen and leads to wildly disparate perceptions of difficulty based on what level they were at the time.
Michael O. Yeah but who cares. People play through the game how they will. It's not more or less valid than however you chose to do it.
Right, I never said it was less valid.
GunslingerKT19 Yes but the experience could be better if the person was not “overleveled”
So, some fun facts. You just witnessed the Orphan of Kos being born from the corpse of Kos. It then proceeded to attack you with its placenta.
I fucking love Bloodborne. XD
Courage Marz we are all with you ! (And your haircut is great well to you).
those 2 frenzy guys are guarding a blood rock that let's you upgrade a weapon to +10
Marz I was just casually watching you but damnit man! I'm hooked on you! So I had to subscribe love your gameplays
Thank you :D
27:40 That was dark. I could never bring myself to do that.
Lol I mowed them down with l2 wirlidigs saw
Love your willingness to try new weapons.
