micolash on NG+ is the first part where it gets significantly harder

mainly because he can probably oneshot you with A Call Beyond

ahem.. pardon my french
but
FUCK THAT KOSMFUCKING MICOLASH

do you have a moment to speak about our lord and savior, Beast Roar?

attack Micolash till you run out of stamina, knock him down with Beast Roar, your stamina will regenerate before he gets back up. repeat till death.

alternately... you can actually dodge A Call Beyond VERY reliably if you stand a few meters away from the user and then dodge INTO it at the moment when the projectiles fire. your iframes will carry you through the projectiles and they are very likely to arc over your head and strike the ground behind you anyway due to the tracking. when your dodge ends you'll be standing in front of the caster and they are usually still in their cooldown period before they can even dodge or move again.

I just chumped out and used the Loch shield as a backup, didnt use it that much but still
most of his fight is fine, even if he likes to corner himself and spam Augur to make sure I cant even get close reliably (and he carries a mean right hook)

but Call of Beyond is indeed nuts
potentially more dangerous than Watchdog's charge attack
like, geez

dodging into him worked a few times, I knew that
but the fight was just too hectic for me to get a proper footing a lot of times, he started casting the spell usually while I was mid movement

also some other shenanigans, which I will show in a video later

still I hear he was patched from earlier versions where he was basically useless at close range
not so much here

I dont know what I could have done to prevent that death there at the start
jumping down into the room seems suicide 25 % of the time

press dodge at the moment you land. you'll immediately roll into iframes and you recover more quickly than if you let yourself fall naturally.

thats what I get for trying to get the jump attack in
its annoying when he cant be seen until I land (he was even charging A Call Beyond immediately once I dropped in the last time)

inversely
I tried my tonitrus and beast pellets on The Living Failures and
wow



pro strats for the first half (Until the arcane caster caught up)

huh
Isz Chalice is very pretty
(hadnt done this one yet)

also is it even worth it to upgrade guns?
3DS FC: 3437-4283-5849 IGN: Alice
Unless you're going for a Bloodtinge build, it's not a priority. But of course use any surplus materials you no longer need for your main weapon(s).

Isz chalice is indeed gorgeous

If your Bloodtinge is low use the repeating pistol and Max upgrade it. You'll get good enough damage to finish off bosses from safety.

Alternately use Hunter Pistol. Leaves more bullets available for parrying if you plan to use you gun for that.

good news
Maria is still a fun boss fight, even if she has become easier with all the stamina I now have

bad news
I bought Nier Automata so my Bloodborne attention will run thin!
3DS FC: 3437-4283-5849 IGN: Alice
An excellent game to take a break from bb with.
~Peaf~
its pretty fun so far
scratches my RPG itch in ways that Persona 5 didnt (which was great in other ways still)
though those flying sessions take getting used to

Just remember when you eventually get back to bloodborne to squelch the button mashing habit that nier will give you.
