One of the many weapons in the 2015 game Bloodborne, Ludwig's Holy Blade is one of the best weapons in the game. At its base the sword is a standard broad sword with a charged attack that does thrust damage (one of the many damage types, thrust gives a heavy damage buff when fighting enemies that are under the "kin" type). When tricked (hitting the L1 button tricks a weapon giving it a second form to use) the Holy Blade becomes a great sword using its sheath as the new blade. As a great sword the attacks are slower and cost more stamina to do, but cause much more damage. The tricked charge attack also does thrust damage. The sword can use paper (usable item that can give a weapon the fire, lightning, or arcane damage type for a short time) in both forms. Attained by purchasing it from the shop after getting the Radiant Sword Hunter badge item from the Healing Church Workshop area in the Cathedral Ward area. You need to beat the boss of the area old Yharnam (Blood Starved Beast) to enter the Healing Church Workshop.
Bloodborne Player 1: I am having a hard time beating Rom the Vacuous Spider, what should I do?
Bloodborne Player 2: Use Ludwig's Holy Blade and lightning paper as Rom is kin type and will take massive damage from charged attacks.
The asshole that's keeping me from getting the blades of mercy.
Bloodborne fan 1: Hay I'm about to fight The Bloody Crow of Cainhurst. Is he hard?
Bloodborne fan 2: Fuck him.
One of the most powerful Hunter's Tools in Bloodborne, it is found in Upper Cathedral Ward after beating the Celestial Emissary and has S tier arcane scaling.
Opens a portal to a pocket dimension and sends small exploding stars with minor player seeking properties in a circle around the caster.

Bloodborne player 1: I'm doing an Arcane build, is A Call Beyond a good spell to use?
Bloodborne player 2: Yea, but the Holy Moonlight Sword's projectile is better in most cases.
One of the many weapons available to use in the 2015 videogame Bloodborne, the Blades of Mercy are a short sword. When tricking the weapon (for all weapons in Bloodborne hitting the L1 trigger will "trick" them allowing use of a secondary form) it splits into two smaller short swords. When split you do not have access to your left hand weapon however, you do get a expanded move set that allows you to quickly engage and disengage with opponents. It is primarily wielded by Eileen the Crow a hunter of hunters. To purchase the Blades of Mercy you need the Crow Hunter Badge. There are many ways to get the badge. You can kill Eileen at any stage of her quest or complete her quest and kill The Bloody Crow of Cainhurst. Regardless it is a great skill scaling weapon with a quick moveset.
New Bloodborne Player: I'm so excited to beat The Bloody Crow of Cainhurst and get the Blades of Mercy.
Experienced Bloodborne Player: *PTSD intensifies*
One of the many bosses in the 2015 game Bloodborne. All encounters with this boss are optional for a casual playthrough however, the encounter in the area Old Yharnam is recommended for any playthroughs of the game as it not only gives an achievement but also opens up the the best farming strategy in the game and drops an item needed for another two achievements. If going for all achievements in the base game and DLC you will encounter this enemy three times, twice as a boss, and once as an enemy. The two boss encounters are found in Old Yharnam (base game), and layer two of the Ailing Loran Chalice (Chalice Dungeons). The enemy encounter is in the Old Hunters DLC. It is in a cave at the end of the blood river area. Be warned, the Gatling Gun Hunter (widely thought to be one of Old Hunter Djura's cohorts) guards the entrance to the cave it is in and can be quite the tough fight. Never the less, after beating the Gatling Gun Hunter you may enter the cave where there will be a few beast men and some cloaked beast men. At the end of the cave is an enemy version of the Blood Starved Beast guarding the weapon The Amygdalan Arm. It is recommended you dodge into its attacks and stay behind it as none of its attacks hit behind itself. It can be distracted by blood cocktails and is weak to fire damage. It is believed by the community of Bloodborne enthusiasts that in humanity this creature practiced bloodletting as its back skin is flayed in a way similar to the Bloodletting Beast.
New Bloodborne Player: Hay I heard that the Blood Starved Beast was optional, I was considering skipping it. Should I?
Experienced Bloodborne Player: Do what you want, but I would recommend taking it down as it lets you go to the Chalice Dungeons. You also need to kill it to get three of the achievements in the game.
