Arcane Build (Hunter Tool Mage) Progression Help

If you're struggling with progression as an Arcane build, particularly after defeating bosses like Cleric Beast, Blood-starved Beast, Father Gascoine, Vicar Amelia, Witch of Hemwick, Shadow of Yharnam, and Darkbeast Paarl, there are specific areas and encounters that can be challenging. Current open paths include Byrgenwerth, Lecture Building, and Nightmare Frontier, all presenting difficulties.

For Byrgenwerth, the hunter in the house can be a significant obstacle. In the Lecture Building and Nightmare Frontier, general progression is proving difficult. For those looking to meet Djura without aggroing him, a specific sequence of boss defeats and actions in Old Yharnam is required.

  • Djura Encounter: To meet Djura peacefully, first defeat the Blood-starved Beast, then Darkbeast Paarl.
  • Old Yharnam Approach: When visiting Old Yharnam, avoid dealing damage to the hunters and do not climb up to the tower until after defeating the required bosses.
  • Hunter Tools: A complete list of all normal versions of weapons and hunter tools would be beneficial for 100% completion.
