Every boss in Bloodborne has a unique design and mechanisms. They are fierce, horrifying, and certainly a lot stronger than you. These bosses pose the biggest threat when it comes to progressing through the levels and act as the gatekeepers standing between you and the next stage.
The bosses in this game are built differently and can be found at various stages throughout the game. They also drop unique items when you defeat them, making the rest of the journey easier as you go.
Some of these bosses are optional and you don’t really need to beat them to progress forward while some of them are mandatory. Here is the complete list of all the bosses in Bloodborne in the first to last order.
Bloodborne Bosses In Order
Cleric Beast (Optional)
Cleric Beast is the first boss you’ll face in Bloodborne. As this will be your first boss, it will be quite a challenge to defeat him. You will find him on theGreat Bridge in Central Yharnam. He is huge, fast, and has a number of moves that can easily kill you if you get hit.
You need to react very quickly and counterattack when you get a chance if you ever want to beat this guy. He has a couple of weak points that you may target to deal more damage. But you need to find those weak points by yourself. When you defeat Cleric Beast, he will drop a rare item calledSword Hunter Badge.
Father Gascoigne is a brutal killer equipped with a long two-handed axe and a gun. you may find him inOedon’s Tomb at Central Yharnam. He can move very fast and be extremely dangerous if he gets close to you.
He has two modes, and his attacks depend on the mode you’re fighting him. He can perform various combo attacks that can be fatal. He also uses his gun whenever he gets a chance. Dodging his attacks is a good way to counter him.
However, when he transforms into his second form, he becomes faster and attacks more rapidly, causing mayhem everywhere. He drops an item calledOedon Tomb Keywhen you defeat him.
You’ll encounter Vicar Amelia inGreat Cathedral at Cathedral Ward. She is a large animal-like creature who performs pure melee attacks with her hands. She uses her long and large hands to attack you, and sometimes she even uses both her hands to land a powerful blow on the ground, sending small shockwaves in all directions.
One annoying thing about Vicar Amelia is that whenever her health bar falls below 50%, she will start running away from you and use her self-healing power. Whenever she uses this power, she will stand still, giving you a perfect opportunity to land a powerful strike. Her body will glow brightly whenever she uses healing.
Due to her healing ability, it can be very difficult to beat her in the early game. you may skip this boss if you are under-equipped and come back later when you get stronger. She will drop an item calledGold Amuletwhen you defeat her.
Blood-Starved Beast (Optional)
you may find this boss in theChurch of the Good Chalice at the Old Yharnam. He looks very creepy, but he won’t come at you unless you get too close and provoke him. His attacks are very quick, and he won’t hesitate to charge at you with his long hands.
