Nah you definitely have no choice but to fight Gerhman. But considering the multiple endings and you enjoyed tge game enough to check for trophy guides here so im sure youll beat it multiple times easily

After you defeat Gehrman do you get to go straight to the messengers or do you have to start ng+?

Attention! The trophy can be missed.
Advice: when you go for platinum, check out where and how you can get this or that weapon in the game.
The weapon for the trophy is considered to be found during the storyline. There are also weapons that can be found in random dungeons, these are “lost” and “creepy” variations, but these weapons do not need to be collected for the trophy.
Below is a list of weapons that need to be obtained for the trophy:

The achievement is counted if each weapon has been in inventory at least once. Not necessarily at once.

My trophy is glitched. Having collected all the weapons in NG+ (everything was available), the achievement did not drop. After that I went and bought the first 4 weapons Saw-axe, Saw-bayonet, Hunter's Axe, Cane-whip gave the achievement

I will describe the fastest way to obtain the weapon Beast Claw , this part can be combined with the search for material for the level 4 Pthumerian Chalice , Bastard Laurent .

See note below

You will need: Chalice of the Sick Laurent , Ritual blood (4) 18 pcs., Flower bud of cold blood 8 pcs.

So, we approach the free Ritual Altar and do the Ritual with the Chalice of the Sick Laurent .

After this, we immediately go to another free Ritual Altar and there we select Search by chalice glyph and enter the glyph: ngvbqhhy

Look for this weapon in the second Layer in the chest, and look for the Bastard Laurent material on the third Layer, also in the chest.

Let me explain why we had to create two identical rituals; if you had started searching for the glyph right away, the ritual would not have worked for you if you had not done the ritual for this bowl before.


*Perhaps the glyph ritual can be carried out immediately and you will need half as many materials, but I succeeded in glyphing only after creating the first regular one without a glyph.

Burial Blade

It can also be obtained in NG, for this you need to find 3 third umbilical cords, use them before talking with Herman and select “Refuse” in the conversation, then kill Herman, get his badge and die on the next boss. Then you awaken in a hunter’s dream and can safely buy this weapon.

I’ll add to Chronicle’s advice: you don’t need to create anything twice. The glyph takes you to a story dungeon, which is the same for all. Level 4 if I'm not mistaken. And in any case, this dungeon will be the same for everyone and everyone will have weapons on the 2nd layer, and items for crafting the dungeon for Ptumer on the 3rd layer.

to get it means to buy it in a store. you need to have all the weapons + auxiliary weapons (second hand) in your inventory to hear the ding.

3. Flamesprayer: After you get to the "Cathedral", return to "CentralYarnam" and talk to Gilbert (the red lantern is right next to the spawn sewer).
Be sure to wear Yaman hunter's clothing, which is sold in the bathhouse.

It is not necessary to “wear” a weapon, just buy it.

Life hack: to get all the weapons in the game you don’t need to switch to NG+, if you missed any quest to get a weapon, don’t switch either. All weapons can be obtained in cups by glyphs, creepy or lost, no matter which trophy is counted, verified 05.30.20
the same applies to weapons from dlc

It is enough to kill Alfred for his weapon to appear in the store without giving away notes from Cainhurst, but I killed him after I visited Josefka’s hospital and received a summons to the castle itself.

If you suddenly don’t have enough echoes for a particular purchase, use the cummmfpk bowl glyph

Friends, I want to briefly talk about the excellent farming of echoes, bubbles and bullets. But it was only towards the end (before the final boss) that I bought the rest of the weapons at that very moment when I killed Mergo. LOCATION: MERGO CHOIR INTERMEDIATE LEVEL. The race itself takes 4-5 minutes. 3 hybrids at the beginning, then three shadows, then 3 boars and from below you can run to two more shadows. Total: approximately 35,000 echoes, 4 to 6 bubbles and about 4 bullets. I bought all the missing weapons in an hour. Farm is just right.

If there are difficulties with killing Eileen at the initial levels and obtaining the "BLADE OF MERCY", she can be lured to the window where we go to her. Since she is very fast and often makes jumps, there is a high probability that she will fall down and break. After which we re-enter the game and pick up the icon with Eileen in the place where she originally stood.

If you didn't get the trophy after purchasing the scythe, you most likely missed the hunter's torch/torch. Hunter's torch in old Yharnam, regular - near the fat mob at the beginning of the game. As a result, there should be two torches.

The trophy did not drop until I received the monster's claw, a weapon from the cup of the sick Laurent. Which, by the way, no one mentioned here!

I’ll add: “You definitely need to wear Yaman hunter’s clothes, which are sold in the bathhouse.” You don’t have to buy the kit, but in central Yharnam, after the location with the fountain where the thug hits the gate with a brick, we go up to the bridge, but we don’t go to the werewolves, but through the bridge to the other side, we go down to a fairly spacious area, if you stand with your back to the bridge on the left there will be barrels and We break their boxes, we see several platforms below, we jump down to the canal with rats. At the end of the channel there will be a corpse waiting with a hunter's kit.

My glyph for Sick Laurent is zmyp. Maybe it will be useful to someone.

When I played through the game, I didn’t know about this achievement, as a result, I sold a shield and a simple torch, well, I think if I get something later, NG+, I bought everything I could in the store in advance, after killing Herman, I bought his scythe and there was a treasured clang. It turns out that the weapon had to be in the bag, and not necessarily have everything in stock, so if something was sold, don’t worry.
