Training Manual Yharnam's no place for novice hunters. Understanding how Bloodborne works starts here, and anyone who doesn't arm themselves with understanding of its intricate systems will be quickly cut down. Hunting Grounds From the streets of Yharnam to the end of the nightmare, critical routes and rewarding detours are plotted on detailed, exclusively-illustrated maps. Text points highlight events, encounters, and tactics for each area's key landmarks. This hunter's compendium leaves no paving stone unturned. The Bestiary A good hunter knows his enemy's weaknesses. He knows their behavior. He knows what it takes to kill them efficiently. Study your prey carefully and discover all of the elements that make them what they are - only then will the hunt be truly on! Arsenal & Attire Your weapon's only lethal if you know how to use it. Here you'll learn about weapon properties, hidden damage modifiers, attack ranges, swing speeds, and much more. Whether you're hunting beasts or other hunters, you'll have the knowledge… and the advantage. The Chalice Dungeons These mean labyrinths of death provide an unending treasure trove of discovery and despair. Though the walls may shift and the denizens may change, we have prepared exhaustive notes detailing the horrifying and mysterious Chalice Dungeons. Their rewards are matched only by their challenge; don't rush in unprepared. Hunter's Appendices Bloodborne's world is populated by a cast of deadly and fascinating characters. Finding all of the NPCs is just the first step; completing every quest requires true dedication. We offer more than that, though; here you'll find behind the scenes info on the world and its characters from the people who created it! If you seek 100% completion and total mastery of Yharnam, look no further.
