Bloodborne

You need to upgrade your weapon to +10. It won’t be a problem to pump up to +9, but getting a stone at +10 is not so easy. The very first one lies under a large brain in the Mentis Nightmare location. There are 2 options to get it. Or, after killing the boss, they will return to the very beginning, where the battle was just beginning (the bridge will go away, but there will be a bypass on the left), there will be a door on the left, it needs to be opened with the key that was near the boss. And then, having smeared yourself with potions from madness, wearing the best armor, simply run, jump under the brain, grab the stone and die heroically.

But there is also a 2nd way. From the fire, immediately after the boss, go forward and almost immediately you will find an elevator. His door will be broken. During the descent/ascent of this elevator, you can climb out the window. Going up is much easier to do, going down often fell Climb through the window, then there will be another walk. There are 3 Illithids waiting ahead of you, it is very advisable to kill them, but if it doesn’t work out at all, you can run, but here you need to play stealth so that they don’t notice you until the last moment. Because there is a high chance of dying from madness. If you pass these 3, then almost everything is behind you. There is a room with spiders ahead, but these are minor things. You pull the lever and voila - your brain is dead. You can calmly come and pick up the stone in the same place.

I will add that after you throw off the brain, be sure to find its body, a living thread falls from it, without which you will not get to the 5th level of the bowl and will not receive platinum. You won’t find it anywhere else, if you start NG+, you’ll have to go through the whole game almost again.

If anyone is interested in farming blood stones, then go to Tombstone of Issa 5, glyph wbgypzky. the stone is on the first layer, it protects the brain. Another one in Ominous Pthumeru Ayill 5, 42k6zqeq, also the first layer.
