What level should I be when I fight Ludwig?

For a first-time playthrough, you should aim for around level 70-90, but the ideal level heavily depends on your skill and build, with many finding 80-100+ better, especially since the DLC's difficulty spikes, requiring a +9 or +10 weapon and good Vitality to handle Ludwig's punishing attacks. A higher level (100+) or summoning allies makes the challenging fight more manageable, especially Phase 2.

What is Ludwig weak against?

Ludwig's weaknesses in Bloodborne are Fire, Bolt, and Serrated damage, especially effective in his beastly first phase, while his second phase (Holy Blade) is weak to Bolt and Righteous damage but resists Arcane; his main vulnerability is exploiting openings after his attacks, particularly by dodging towards him, attacking his sides/rear, and using items like Fire Paper or Bolt Paper for elemental boosts.

What does Ludwig's Blade scale with?

Ludwig's Holy Blade scales with Strength (STR) and Skill (SKL) for physical damage in its normal form, benefiting from "Quality" builds, but gains strong Arcane (ARC) scaling if you use elemental blood gems to convert its damage type (like Fire, Bolt, or pure Arcane), making it excellent for Arcane builds too. For maximum physical damage, level both STR and SKL (often to 25/25 or 50/50); for Arcane builds, convert it with gems to scale solely with Arcane.

Should I finish off Ludwig?

Killing him is the only way to acquire the sword at this point, as his shrieks seem to have no end. Simply leaving Ludwig's head untouched and leaving the area before coming back will lead to Simon killing him, handing the Holy Moonlight Sword over when the player next speaks to him.

At what level should I do Bloodborne DLC?

In NG+, you might want to be around BL125+. So, doing it after you beat Mergos Wet Nurse(or Gherman if you are doing the Great One Quest ending) is probably a good way to start. But, starting after defeating Vicar Amelia is not too bad if you have the leveling and the weapon damage.

What is the hardest video game ever?

There's no single "hardest" game, as difficulty is subjective, but top contenders include I Wanna Be the Guy (trollish traps), Battletoads (infamous Turbo Tunnel), Ghosts 'n Goblins (two-hit deaths, second playthrough), and Dark Souls/Sekiro (punishing combat, precision). Mushihimesama Futari (Ultra mode) is near-unbeatable, while The World's Hardest Game (Flash) and Getting Over It offer unique, frustrating challenges.
