Bloodborne: All bosses at a glance

The Game Bloodborne is one of the hits on PS4. It is demanding and comes up with crisp boss fights. For full enjoyment, we present all bosses and their location to you - because many are optional and can be overlooked.

These bosses in Bloodborne are story-relevant

Bloodborne offers a lot to discover and makes the explorer's heart beat faster. But if you don't go on a discovery tour off the main paths, you can miss a lot of the game. There are not only optional bosses, but entire areas can be denied to you. So that you do not miss anything and can defeat all Bloodborne bosses, we have located the nasty heads for you from both the main game and the DLC The Old Hunters.

• Father Gascoigne: The Hunter lurks at the end of Central Yharnam, in front of the entrance to the Cathedral Ward. Prepare for an aggressive opponent with an ax and a pistol. He later turns into a beast with powerful melee combos.
• Vicar Amelia: A beast waiting for you in the Cathedral Ward . It has powerful melee attacks and can seize you. The beast can also heal itself. It is prone to fire.
• Shadow of Yharnam: In the Forbidden Woods there is the place Forbidden Grave. Here you fight against three people at the same time. Two melee fighters, one of whom can spit fire with the candle, and one magician who fires directed fireballs at you. They are prone to lightning damage.
• Rome, the Vacuous Spider: In Byrgenwerth you can reach the Spider Rome via Moonside Lake. He keeps gathering numerous small spiders around him and teleporting away. He also has various surface attacks. His head is heavily armored.
• The One Reborn: A huge slow boss that you can find in Yahar'gul, Unseen Village . You fight him on Advent Plaza. The opponent attacks with various melee attacks and makes bodies rain. Mages also attack from the top floor.
• Micolash, Host of the Nightmare: You will meet him in Mergo's Loft, which is located in the Nightmare of Mensis . More puzzles than fighting, chasing the boss, finding shortcuts and engaging him in a duel multiple times.
• Mergo's Wet Nurse: She is also at home in the Nightmare of Mensis and at the same time the last story boss. You meet her at the top; in the Wet Nurse's Lunarium area. This multi-arm melee can create fog and duplicate.

Optional bosses from the main game

In addition to the seven bosses mentioned in Bloodborne that you have to defeat, there are ten optional bosses in the main game. Some of them want to be found first, others are on the way.

• Cleric Beast: The second boss in the Central Yharnam starting area. You will find him on the Great Bridge at the very end. A melee beast whose long arms have a medium attack radius. It has a grasping attack and is prone to fire.
• Blood-starved Beast: The beast is waiting for you in the Church of the Good Chalice, which is located in the lower area of Old Yharnam . It primarily attacks up close, but can also spit poison. His grasping attack is dangerous. Susceptible to fire.
• The Witch of Hemwick: There is a path up a hill in the Hemwick Charnel Lane area. Witch's Abode is at the end of the path. The witch makes itself invisible and summons opponents, but can also attack itself if you are close to them. She can clone herself.
• Darkbeast Paarl: You can reach Hyopgeon Gaol from the Yahar'gul area , Unseen Village if you let a kidnapper kill you. You reach the electrified beast through a hole in a cell. Although it attacks more closely, it also has a jump attack. It also triggers a lightning explosion when you are close to it. Later in the fight, it hurls lightning balls.
• Amygdala: A kind of giant spider that has its chamber on the Nightmare Frontier . It jumps, it grabs, it kicks, it hits and it shoots laser beams. All your skills are required here. Good who has a lot of bullets. Your weak point is the head.
• Celestial Emissary: In the Upper Cathedral Wards, open the main gate and get to the Lumenflower Gardens. The boss sends you waves of opponents again and again and later gets bigger and stronger. He moves slowly and next to his melee attacks he shoots guided arcane attacks.
• Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos: This boss is also in the Upper Cathedral Wards . Destroy the window near the lamp in Lumenflower Gardens and you will reach the Altar of Despair. The enemy usually strikes with limbs and can conjure up guided arcane attacks.
• Martyr Logarius: At the top of the roofs of Forsaken Cainhurst Castle you face this boss. In addition to his extensive scythe attacks, he shoots magical projectiles. He also has a sword to fight with both hands or to charge himself for more damage.
• Gehrman, the First Hunter: You 'll find the final boss at your Hunter's Dream retreat, behind the locked gate. It goes through three phases in combat. He gets stronger with everyone. All of his attacks are virtually physical, since he only uses a scythe and a pistol.
• Moon Presence: The real final boss. You fight him right after defeating Gehrman in Hunter's Dream . But only if you have all three One Third of Umbilical Cords . Expect many claw attacks and jumps. The boss can also drain your life energy and use an exploding purple cloud to prevent you from using Blood Vails at times.

The bosses in the DLC The Old Hunters

The Bloodborne DLC The Old Hunters has five other bosses to kill. Laurence, the First Vicar is the only optional boss.

• Ludwig: In Hunter's Nightmare near the Nightmare Church, this beast is the first boss. It goes through two phases. In the first, it uses extensive jumping and racing attacks. In the second, it has a sword with, among other things, magical attacks.
• Laurence, the First Vicar (optional): The second boss in Hunter's Nightmare is in the Nightmare Grand Cathedral. This fire beast has two phases. In the first, the attacks are similar to those of the Cleric Beast - only with fire. In phase two, the boss becomes very aggressive and spews lava.
• Living Failures: You can find them at the top of the Research Hall in Lumenwood Garden. Little by little, creatures appear that are rather weak individually, but can become dangerous in the majority. Then they have a meteor attack, which they all trigger simultaneously.
• Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower: You fight them in the Astral Clocktower, which you can also reach via the Research Hall . She is a nimble opponent with two swords who powers up twice in battle. First it gains range in addition to new attacks and then fire damage. Arcane weapons help in combat.
• Orphan of Kos: You will meet the boss in the DLC in the Fishing Hamlet on the coast. It goes through two phases, both of which involve a large number of different attacks. He is an agile opponent with some combos. In phase two he is taller, more aggressive and has arcane attacks.
• Tip: If you still don't have enough - twenty more bosses are waiting for you in the depths of the Chalice Dungeons.
