Gehrman, The First Hunter — Bloodborne

Encounters and strategy

Hunter's Dream Blood Moon

Build around parries

Bait his strikes to parry, then perform a visceral attack. Clawmark increases the damage; a bullet-restoring rune sustains your attempts.

Create enough distance to heal

If you cannot land the parry, punish the end of his slow combos. Before using a vial, retreat far enough: a small step does not always create a safe opening.

• Solo HP and echoes without runes. The displayed defenses are for NG; their NG+ scaling is not quantified here.
• A defense is a calculation value, not a damage reduction percentage. A Poison resistance of 999 does not imply immunity.
