Ebrietas: An Unskilled Guide

Get behind them. It’s a common piece of advice for Soulsborne bosses. But for Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos, it’s especially true.

You can face her head on, there’s a way to do it I’m sure. Yet, for a clumsy oath of a gamer like me, getting to the blind spot of this boss is essential.

And I don’t just mean standing behind them. I mean you need to get really behind them. At the risk of being vulgar, one needs to be so close to the back of Ebrietas that you can see the inside of the character model.

Vicar Amelia: An Unskilled Guide

Seen as Bloodborne is such a windy, optional-routes affair, this could be your second boss, or it could be your sixth. It really should be your sixth. The Witch and the Beast unlock so much useful stuff, and the training they give you will make the Vicar a bit more manageable.

Every experience is different, but I would personally say that Amelia is a ‘middling’ difficulty boss. She’s a heavy hitter, but she doesn’t bounce around like Darkbeast and is not as aggressive as Gascoigne. Most importantly, it didn’t require anything too clever for me to beat her. Dumb, brute force was required.
