I realise that the thrill of discovery -- whether it's new locations, items or a way to kill an enemy -- is one of the best aspects about these games. That said, Bloodborne, like its predecessors, has many secrets and hidden items. The starting area for instance is pretty complex and has several shortcuts and concealed pathways. To top it all, it is just as challenging as the Souls games.
So I thought we should create a 'tips and tricks' thread similar to this one, where you can share the location of a useful item, explain certain mechanics, etc. Also, don't forget to use the spoilers tag when necessary.
So, here goes.
1) The dogs in this game are more lethal and just as annoying; stunning them with the blunderbuss makes killing them easier.
2) If you chose the Hunter Axe as your starting weapon, try these combos: [default state] R1 once or twice, L1, and then R1 again. Or [transformed] R2 then R1.
3) This is more of a starting-guide type of thing, but you can find a decent "armor" set early on:
