      First time playing through, I didn't understand the stats all that well, and didn't look closely at the numbers, so I used this most of the game because I thought it gave me more health.

        I am currently doing the funniest low-on-pots cheese on this boss.. run past him and up the ladder for de-aggro. Come back down, hit his tail, run away back up the ladder.

          on a side note, they changed "vitality" with another word in italian version. Took me a while to figure out.

            Why is Godfrey's face here, above ground (relatively speaking) under Stormveil, while the rest of his body lies deep below Leyndell in the deeproot depths? That is quite a distance to be decapitated and buried from each other.

              This talisman has 2 effects. First it governs your Death status effect, you know the filling bar meter. The second one is kinda weird and i will try to explain as much i can. So lets say you have an average Focus defense about 200-250 and you have 300 hps and you receive 1k damage, you will die! Lets say you have about 350-400 about and you you have 700hps and you take 1k damage, you may survive this attack with 1 hp.Then if you heal up again and you receive similar attack with similar hps you may survive it again. It happens to me 3 times in a boss. I said how i didnt die? Yea has a lot rng and need to heal again to make trigger again. I can trigger again not once per rest. Better armor helps to occur.

                Vitality has two defensive mechanics in this game. The first being raising your bar before getting killed by the Death status effect. The second is a chance based effect to resist dying once per life to weapon damage, based on the target's vitality stat. This second effect applies to all enemies in the game, as well as our player characters, and most boss enemies have a very high vitality stat to prevent them from dying to the Death status effect; this comes with the "survive with one hp" mechanic as well. This effect is allowed only once per rest at grace, load screen, or cutscene-- the same goes for enemies. Our chance of getting this '1 hp' mechanic to occur is very low as our vitality cannot reach nearly the same value as bosses without illegal means. Now you know why those bosses you've been fighting always seem to live with one hp after you did a finisher on them.

                  I didn't come back and do this area until way later in the game, and this talisman was missing for some reason.

                    I just grab that thing trying to reach a spot i wanted to go on Stormveil Castle. Completly skipped the boss and the dungeon. From Rampart Tower site of grace you can directly jumped on the roof of a building you're suppose to reach by going upstairs (the building with the chimney you can climb onto to go on a few towers. The right side of that building give above a small yard with a statue and a stonekey gate. Above the stonekey gate there is an alcove you can reach from the roof by jumping on the top of the deadtree then you just roll toward the alcove and enter it, it's the exit of the dungeon you're suppose to pass to get that talisman. Just go down the ladder and you can get the talisman without fighting the boss x)

                      Should I equip Prince of Death's Pustule (raises vitality) instead of Crimson Amber Medallion (raises Vigor)?

                        The object can be looted without fighting the boss, you need to drop into the exit room located right above one of the imp statues (the one containing Miséricorde). Drop from the right side roof into the tree and from there into the room. There's a ladder that can be used to descend to where the item is.

                          There is a variant called Prince of Death's Cyst. Its located inside the waterfall to the right of town in Deep Root Depths. You have to kill the Great Bear to get it.

                              The +1 version of this is called 'Prince of Death's Cyst'. From the Deeproots Depths grace, it is to the NE in a cave behind one of the waterfalls -- the runebear sleeping there drops it when it dies.

                                a stronger version - prince of death cyst (greatly increases vitality) in deeproot depths on the right side of the across the roots grace, in that area above the waterfall there is a hole and a fight with a bear who drops this talisman

                                    ah yes, good old squidface, because bloodborne left it's lovecraft-shaped mark on FROM. also, for those wondering, vitality doesn't raise your health, it raises your resistance to deathblight build up. which you can see the effects of on poor rodgiere by touching that bloodstain nearby.

                                      What the heck does resistance to death mean? If I die and I have it equipped does it get used up and I dont lose ruins? What does it do exactly.

                                        You don't need to fight the gaurdian, just run past him, you will die but you can easily get the item before it catches up.
