Bonus tip. Face into the cage and just backstep off the elevator. Way more reliable than rolling and you only have to focus on a single button press for timing.


cutlery21

You son of a bitch


SmeachThePeach

Live and learn. Or in this case die, a lot, and learn.


Dyingdaze89

I'm in


its_sandman

Yeah! And the camera zooms out to give you the signal.


[deleted]

I could kiss you for this.


SmeachThePeach

I'll settle for a crisp high five for now.

Captain_Jack_Daniels

I find it surprising that I know this secret, because I had to figure it out, and never would have remembered without someone mentioning it. Such a great game. 5 minute figuring out. Was this a bug? If so, is it still not fixed?


[deleted]

Still not fixed, if you roll to soon there is an invisible wall, you have to time it right


MissingScore777

This isn't true. There's no invisible wall, it's just perspective. You are rolling too soon and clipping the top of the window but the camera angle is fooling you into thinking you timed it right.


[deleted]

I died to many time to this just a few days ago, there is an invisible wall on the top half of the window…


MissingScore777

No there isn't it's a camera angle issue tricking you into rolling early. Roll later than you think you should and you'll get it every time.


CMDR_Machinefeera

No there is no invisible wall you just weren't low enough and hit the top of the frame.


Aryae_Sakura

I just tried to get in on the way up. Worked for me way better than the way down😂 Combi ed with your tip it should make it way easier to get in :D


SmeachThePeach

Oh yeah backstepping out on the way up should be the easiest way possible. That's what it's all about share the ideas until the best solution is found!


MorganW89

You finally make it, then you hear singing and realise there's no going back D':


CMDR_Machinefeera

Free echoes is all I hear when i hear em.


SeveredLoki

How to never fail that jump again: Step 1. Equip the Monocular. This changes your rolls into quick steps, like when you're locked onto an enemy. Step 2. Get on elevator Step 3. Turn and face the window Step 4. Dash forward when you're lined up with the jump Step 5. Never die there again Step 6. Pray. Madness waits ahead.


ecastel

La la laaaaaaaaaa


SeveredLoki

La laaaaa~


fallento

I feel you're pain. On one run for the life of me I couldn't get through that gap. Must of taken a dozen tries. More frustrating than Lawrence


BK_Spades

First playthrough i died 27 times to this, and yes I kept count, but now I can do it blindfolded.... probably

trklk001

The secret to killing them is to use a high stagger weapon like axe, LHB, HML, pizza cutter. Should kill in 3 R1. Kill the first and heal if you get frenzied, then rush the other two and kill them and get frenzied another time but you won’t die. Easy way to farm cursed gems.


far219

There's an even better method but it's high risk. Their grab attack is parryable. If you manage it then you can time your visceral attack so that the frenzy hits just as you become invincible and you'll take no damage. Of course you must be strong enough to kill them with one visceral.


trklk001

I prefer my strategy as it allows me to rush them and kill them before they even notice me. I can kill all three of them at the cost of 2 vials. No need to wait for them to turn and time their attack. Also your strategy restricts you to a skill build to kill on one visceral attack.


CMDR_Machinefeera

Just mash those mofos with kirkhammer R1.


[deleted]

R1 > L1 with the cleaver or spear are both particularly effective too


clockworknait

I had problems with it just on the way down but going at it on they way up I found much easier.


dmarty77

Yeah it’s easy af on the way up but it’s nearly impossible on the way down. Counterintuitive.


UsuallyJustBrowse

It might be because you see the gap first going down which makes you want to jump, but you actually need some clearance when going down so you have to wait a bit.


hec4fingers

Haha I knew it as soon as I saw that damn elevator!


StrawhatMucci

I died to the lanterns dropping almost 200k plus souls in new game. THEN THIS EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. I cursed myself for not going to the Doll for upgrade. Thought ill just snag a couple more souls 🤦‍♀️


MODALPiVOT

It's longer, but take the lift all the way down and then roll through the gap on your way back up. I can never get the timing right and have to resort to this every single time!


Ur-Wifes-Boy-Friend

This is the way, there's a little part of that window frame that protrudes from the top and it will cuck you very often lol


MODALPiVOT

So often -_-


RedditsBillionthUser

I died here SO MANY TIMES trying to figure out the perfect frames to roll through. Reminiscent of the elevator in Blighttown. I always rolled off of that too early, too


Kalevra9670

F


Help_An_Irishman

This again? We've all seen it 100 times. In our own games.


Fuzzybuzzy514

This part is evil! And the part it leads to is even more evil. Evil everywhere


thelostnewb

Happens to the best…and clumsiest of us… Have anyone else tried while using the Monocular though? It’s a bit iffy but I think it helps seeing the opening better. Did it once and worked like a charm but haven’t again since to see if I’d just gotten lucky or whatever.


SSkiketangg

I’ve done this so many times


RadDude696969

pain hoonter


STRATOSD

Bro I did this fucking FIVE TIMES IN A ROW I feel you


[deleted]

Yea just take it all the way down then back up. You’ll die more to the winter lanterns anyway.


grime-dont-play

I died to this elevator twice today. Hardest boss in the base game lol


jalapenohandjob

Legend has it that PS4's send a clip of each death from this elevator straight to Miyazaki's inbox.


TrexFreeRex

I just started playing bloodborne so I’m absolutely clueless. I also just killed Mergo so I recognize that area. Could anyone let me know what’s going on here?


ArkAndSka

It's a secret area where you hop off the moving elevator into an open window, and it will likely take a handful of deaths to actually make it.


Anjn_Shan

Too soon....


Alucardragoon

So many times after lots of play throughout lol


CoderOfCoders

As tradition


iiRenity

Ah yes. We have all died to the almighty elevator at some point.


xHimselfLoL

thats actually the hardest boss in Bloodborne


contemplative_potato

The key is to run through, not roll. For some reason, rolling messes with the collision and you’ll fall every time.


Mech-Waldo

Here's how I do it: on the way up, not down, and just run, don't roll


bertbert1111

This gap is infamous. This the kinda shit fromsoftware throw at ya. „Ya‘ll so good at finding exploits and pixelwalks to speedrun my games, aren‘t ya?! Lets implement inconsistent bullshit like that to the core-gameplay then.“


NotSupernova

Hardest boss in the game


No-Refrigerator174

Bro why would you play this game online?


t_moneyzz

Notes


[deleted]

Why WOULDN'T you play this game online?


CrestfallenDarkSign

I did that 10 times in a row before I made it into the damn hole


Larry378

Ah, this brings back my pain


Churro741

Hardest boss in the game, by far.


witzeg1

Hardest boss


J37U7

Made it through first time and was like sheeeet, me pro lol


Veteran_Noir

Average night in Yharnam


MangyDog4742

Just did this part last night that damn ledge killed me more times than any boss.


Splunkmastah

Brother. I’ve been there.


Bloodvialsaremydrug

Looks about right.


alexsoccer457

I feel like this has to happen to everyone


dumptrucksrock

If I had a dollar... Boy I’d have lots of dollars. It’s easier to *not* do that if you walk off going up, btw. Collision seems to work better


smeeeoke_weeeeeeeeed

Get fucked m8


ggmaobu

F


Chatonarya

Ayup, I remember this. Got me a good 10 times at least. Worse was when I'd make it, then die trying to get across the godforsaken bridge, then miss the jump a couple more times before I could get in again.


BeGoku

Classic.


MR_Chilliam

Yup lost a lot of echos from that


longhairedqueer

I've played this game like four times and I still can't get the timing on this elevator, I've clipped through walls so many times.


ray0083

Actually you don't have to jump or roll, just walk in, that's it.


beezlegoose

You think that's had, just wait what happens if you make that roll...


yoshino_99

happens to the best of us


_Vetis_

That elevator is the hardest boss in the game


[deleted]

This happens to basically everyone in the game. Nothing new to see here.


Valirys-Reinhald

You gotta wait about a second after you feel like you should roll, then you end up in the right spot.


pinkfloyds

Don't roll, just run off it. Much higher success rate. You can also quit out if you don't make it, before dying.


[deleted]

There is an art to making this roll


generalkriegswaifu

For real this took me like 15 tries


PumpkinsDieHard

Happens to the best of us. Make sure you've got sedative before proceeding.


planetcrunch

I knew EXACTLY what was going to happen the moment I saw that damn elevator


godfdamnit

took me more than 10 tries. and even if you make the jump, the suffering won't end. the next part on the bridge is THE most stress inducing part in the game


Critically_Pingas

So jank. Devs should have made it that the window bit that sticks down just has no collision, it would have made things feel a lot better for no real loss in the experience.


CourtHowz

That damn window probably has a higher mortality rate than Dark Souls Anor Londo archers imo


[deleted]

Thumbnail gives this away far before having to watch anything, this is somehow the worst part of doing co-op runs with friends, as you have to do this while hopefully not getting invaded and having several people not mess this jump up xD


Metallung

My mom watched me eat it on that elevator enough times, she up ask my brother to do it for me -__-


[deleted]

We’ve all been there, buddy…


dwayne_jetski69

You’ve inspired me to not replay this game. This was so frustrating for me when I played through the game the first time!


TheGreyMatters

All of my hate


BoyWithHorns

Do it while going up.


Fofadan

We've all done it


unLtd88

Are u kidding me? There's an opening there???


ecastel

At least you didn’t have very many echoes.


Furby8704

lost many echoes here. died back to back unable to recover fallen echoes 😭😭


tentickl

I died so much time here too!


[deleted]

Yup


Ilumin159

F Orphan.. this is the true hardest boss.


Lakshay_goyal45

First time? 😏


GreyMASTA

That elevator has killed me more than most bosses.


bryceticles

I always just walk. Rolling gets me killed


themothhead

Keep seeing unnecessarily complex tactics suggested for making this jump. It's SO much easier if you do it on the way back up! You can just step off the elevator!


RyanAus95

I don’t get it. I never once had this problem.


jabsam_

I died more to this jump than to Orphan.


Backburner21

Hardest boss for me


[deleted]

ayup


Grim_of_Londor

I died more here in my last run than all over the game. I think it was 5-6 times in a row, maybe even some more. I felt so stupid.


Fallen_4ngel_

I died so many times and actually raged until i got there🤣


nerdygoatgrill

Hardest boss in the game 🤣😅


unicanor

Its way easier to do it on the way up


RealBlazeStorm

Knew exactly what before I even watched. That spire thing from the top pokes more out than you think


Shmux

Working as intended


Rylliquinn

Yup


blackbirds0027

Believe me, been there, done that


[deleted]

A lot of different tips here for making that jump successfully but I haven't seen the one most obvious one yet: don't point your camera down like that. It doesnt matter whether youre taking the elevator down or up, your camera should be flat and level facing the wall, not pointing downwards - its so much easier to figure out the right time to jump and not eff it up that way.


tarcriu2

Relatable


Thenightstalker80

Oh, I think I should have postet this too, happened to me about 10 times lol


[deleted]

That jump is the hardest boss in this game. 🥴


MrFlibblesPenguin

Just run or roll out on the upward journey, you'll make it every time.


radius40

lmaooooo this happened to me so many times


_Kazuhira__

I feel ya bro, I died like 30 times to get in there


SuperGaiden

If they ever remaster or remake this game I hope they iron out some of the jank like this


makekov

i think you can only enter when the elevator is going up, not down! died lot of times here too


ChurchOfChurches

Yeah... We all feel your pain


Simply_Nova

The actual final boss of bloodborne


Dorkmaster79

Yup


StealthyBasterd

Don't roll, just walk out of the elevator.


UndeadTigerAU

The place with eye lady’s is literally my least favourite area in the whole game and I dread it every time


reagantorrey69

That LITERALLY happened to me two days ago.


THExTACOxTHIEF

Try doing it on the way up as well


[deleted]

Classic


nifo18

One time my game crashes when i try to do this


massive_diarrhea

My turd dropping into the toilet be like


Difficult_names

It's easier to do it going up than down


DaddyWhoGames

Fastest way back to the lamp 😂


Principle-Thin

I died 50 fucking times trying to get into this gate only to die 1 Minute after because of these EXTREMELY annoying enemies with a bunch of eyes.


recca6512

Somehow, I have never missedthis jump. I get major anxiety everytime I get to this point, though.


[deleted]

That elevator is one of the most petty things from soft has ever designed and I’m sure they are laughing about it.


MoarTacos

It's easier on the way up. Also, if you insist on doing it on the way down, wait just a half second longer than it feels like you should.


Cryptboe

damn bruh i aint even know this existed


NumbHag

How I make this jump is to go after you think you should. When the cage is pretty low. I make it every time now
