You don't need to block a Fuling. Just wait until he attacks and then make 2 steps back. When the Furling successfully hits the air start counter-attack and kill him with your 3-combo attack. If you get used to this tactic even 2x2* Fulings at once are easy (but still risky). I pefer using swords in the plains because of the small knockback.

yeah well then remove armor and shields entirely if we're just supposed to Bloodborne the entire game.

I've thought about trying that to see how long I would last, but it probably wouldn't be all that long. You could only mistime hits once or twice before you'd be down. Spears would also be a problem. Maybe just a shield?

I may give it a go with my second character to see what happens.
