Great One's Wisdom is a consumable item in Bloodborne.
Description[]
In-Game Description
- Fragments of the lost wisdom of the Great Ones, beings that might be described as gods.
- Use to gain Insight.
- At Byrgenwerth, Master Willem had an epiphany: "We are thinking on the basest of planes. What we need, are more eyes."
Availability[]
- Byrgenwerth:
- Right after the encounter with a lone Brainsucker, but before the encounter with the Fluorescent Flower.
- Nightmare of Mensis:
- There are four located on the bridge that can be entered through either the doorway of the room where you can find the Choir Bell, or the more riskier route of going through the door that is opened with the Iron Door Key.
- Hunter's Nightmare:
- One is located on a corpse in the altar laying on one of the surgical beds, after the dungeon room directly after defeating Ludwig where the player will fight two female Church Hunters.
- Chalice Dungeons (random loot)
Use[]
- Grants the player +2 Insight.
Notes[]
- It is good to hoard as many of these skulls as one can to then invest in the more expensive items sold at the Insight Bath Messenger.
- There is a weaker, more common version of this item, called Madman's Knowledge.
Trivia[]
- The sprites that manifests themselves from the skull, resembles slugs or invertabrate beings, similar to the Pearl Slug or Augur of Ebrietas.
- Though it is unclear how the Hunter acquires insight from this item, it seems that if a person who dies after being "touched by the wisdom of a Great One", or "making contact with Eldritch wisdom", has its effect remain in his/her skull, even after death. And upon smashing it with the hands, the Hunter is catching a glimpse of the Cosmos itself, thus gaining Insight.
