Insight is a unique mechanic in Bloodborne that represents your Hunter's understanding of the cosmic truth. It has several effects:

  • Enemy Behavior: At higher Insight levels, some enemies gain new attacks or become more aggressive.
  • World Changes: Certain elements of the world become visible or audible at higher Insight (e.g., Amygdalas on buildings, the Doll becoming animated).
  • Shop Items: The Insight Bath Messengers offer unique items for purchase with Insight.
  • Frenzy Resistance: Higher Insight reduces your Frenzy resistance.

You gain Insight by encountering bosses, defeating bosses, using Madman's Knowledge, and witnessing certain events. You can spend Insight at the Insight Bath Messengers or by summoning cooperators (which also temporarily reduces your Insight).
