Eileen | Side quests Bloodborne Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
In the Aqueduct in Central Yharnam, around several dog cages, you can enter sewers from the side presented in the screenshot. Right after you enter the building, smash the crates and jump don, carefully, onto the wooden platform below. Take a look around and you find two hanging corpses here - cut the ropes to get them down (you can return for them later on). However, your destination is the small room to the right of the window that you climbed to get here. Outside, you find hunter Eileen. Talk to her and you will receive 4x Hunter Badge. After you talk to her again, you will also be rewarded with a gesture Shake Off Cape.
After you open the gate to the central yard (two larger opponents with axes) right after you cross the exit across Odeon Chapel, on the left, you find Eileen (if you have already talked to her in the Aqueduct). You receive a gesture from her and information that advises you against going to Oedon Tomb.
After you reload the location, that is where you find Eileen (the lantern in Hunter's Dream is currently disabled, return to the chapel and return to where you fought Gascoigne). She is fighting other hunter. Help her (make sure that you do not hit your ally too often or she will turn against you)/ From the corpse of Henryk, pick up the Heir rune, talk to Eileen and you will receive an additional gesture Approval.
Note: During the fight, Eileen may die, which makes completing her quest impossible. After Henryk arrives here (he appears as the first one) do not wait and attack him. Deal as much damage as possible, before Eileen joins the fight.
The last time that you meet Eileen is after you deal with Rom, The Vacuous Spider. She is lying wounded atop the stairs to the Grand Cathedral. Talk to her to learn about an enemy hunter. Also, you receive a gesture Wait.
Inside, you find the hunter. The opponent slowly approaches you but, right before the attack, he has the tendency to disappear for a moment and appear on one of your sides to deal damage with a shot. For this reason, throughout the entire battle, you should keep him at a distance and hit when he is dashing towards you or, if your weapon is fast enough, do not get too far away and try for a short distance fight. He opponent like jumping away and using his powerful firearm - make sure that you do not take two bullets in a row, or you will also be exposed to a powerful finishing attack, which may be the final nail in your coffin. The hunter once uses Blood Vials, unless you cast Numbing Mist first. He can do the same so, be careful - if you are affected, you will temporarily be unable to use Blood Vials. It is best to dart out of the Grand Cathedral then and wait through the moment - the hunter should let you go at the door. Then, after it is possible to heal yourself, return inside and continue fighting. This trick can also be used, when the opponent is transforming his weapon, while losing health points - it is possible that if you disappear from his sight, he forgets to transform the weapon again and will have lost health in vain, or die without you intervening.
After the fight, collect the rune Blood Admiration. Then, in front of the Grand Cathedral, talk to Eileen - from her, you receive Crow Hunter Badge and rune Hunter (connected with joining the Hunters of Hunters covenant).
Note: If you miss any of the quest's stages, you will be attacked by Eileen if you visit the Grand Cathedral after the fight with Rom, The Vacuous Spider.
