Invaders don't want a fair fight, they just want an easy win. I've been using dried fingers with no summons so I can 1v1 invaders, and it's been sad. I don't even take a sippy until they do first, and 9/10 times they either get spanked or run off and hide until more invaders show up so they can try and gank me.
neither side of the invasion has any sort of code of honor to abide by, when they eventually face someone pretending to be honorrabru they don't give a shit, they've been fucked over too many times before to not heal
>>336167160
who cares
no one, not since DeS
we will all use what will make us win faster
>>336168314
During the DeS era the invaders only wanted to make the host's life miserable. They started the honor shit with Dark Souls.

>Invaders don't want a fair fight, they just want an easy win
Duh, that's the entire point of the system, to invade another player and brutally kill them so you can ember.
It's been the entire point of invasions since Demon's Souls, so that you could get your body form back, even if it was at the expense of another player.
yes, the darksouls pvp system is designed to be anti-fun and its just there to irritate people.
congratulations! your figured it out.
>thanks for playing ds3
>see you next year, bring your wallets
What's your build OP?
>>336167160
I invade to be a mini-boss.
It's the most fun way to play.
If they have summons? Then I use environment/enemies
If they're solo? 1v1 fair fight, I'll heal when they do
If it's a host and summons just sitting at the fucking bonfire? BC out.
>>336171054
>If it's a host and summons just sitting at the fucking bonfire? BC out
You should use the obscuring ring and a greatbow for such occasions. It's a good bit of fun.
>>336169519
>host's life miserable
the invasion system can't do that
>get inviaded
>wow someone invade me let's fight
>wow i died well let's do it again from the bonfire who is right next to me
dying on this game doesn't even feel like you're getting penalized
a lot of times i don't even give a fuck to die because everything is too close
>>336167160
That's nice, maybe stop being a pussy and do some invasions yourself.
>>336171179
im doing a 99% equip load iron tarkus cosplay. Maybe if I were better I could handle a 2v1 or 3v1 ganksquad, but I just cannot (with this build at least), and it is not fun in any way to try to engage them. Plus, not enough dex for greatbow.
>>336171572
if you've been using any kind of straightsword, those tongues don't count.
>>336171761
>>336167160
I don't invade to pvp with you, I invade to make your journey difficult. Every enemy's patterns can be learned and exploited, but a human opponent is often unpredictable and difficult to anticipate.
That is unless some shitty meta rears it's ugly head, then suddenly every invasion comes with a pattern.
>Gesture > Strife > Strife > R1 > Panic Roll > Strife > R1 > R1 > R1 > Roll > Roll
Fuck that gay shit, I'm gonna use every dirty trick possible to give that "You Died" you cheesed your way past in a previous portion of the game,bitch.
>>336171658
I find when you have 3 people chasing you they tend to get careless about evading your attacks. Try throwing a charged r2 at them if you have the space to get one off while they chase you.
>>336172080
okay i guess
i could be salty and move the goalposts and say that halberd is just as broken
am I the only invader that thinks invasions are fair game for anything? Its kind of the only reason I've been playing these games since demon and putting countless hours into each, for the curve-ball factor in fighting people.
>>336172080
muh nigga
best weapon
>>336172320
You can easily parry that charge attacks. Most gankers don't though because their plan is to r1 stunlock you to death.
>>336167160
i dont really care much for invading but 90% of the time when i get invaded and im kicking their ass they run back behind a mob and start taunting. its fucking annoying and they just waste both their time and mine. i dont care if an invader runs up to me while im unaware and fighting a mob but dont be a bitch and run away behind one when you're getting your ass handed to you and waste everyones time.
>>336171453
Are you fucking retarded
Of course you are you never played DeS
Dying meant a lot.more in DeS and people used scraping spear and other shit to ruin their game
>>336172656
Why is it a waste of time, because you're gonna stand there like a little chickenshit? I'd rush that fucker and the mob or do some other cool unexpected shit cause I have huge dick. Not stand there like a pussy with my game/freetime hijacked. KYS Beta faggot
>>336173239
>I'd rush that fucker and the mob or do some other cool unexpected shit
and youd get killed almost every time. I dont care how good you are at the game, you cant keep track of multiple enemies plus a human player.
really the best option would be to use seed
>>336173239
Record a video of you doing that anon. I triple dog dare you.
>>336171572
I started out doing nothing but invading. Are you trying to imply it's hard or something? It's really not. That's the reason I've been solo dried-fingering, invading is just too easy if you know what you're doing.
>>336174350
does she have abenis?
>>336174648
If she did she would be 10/10 material.
Why are people crying about straightswords?
What did I miss?
>>336167160
>invading/being invaded right now when hackers are screwing over anyone they invade with softbanning tactics
>>336176245
>playing a game on PC at launch
>>336171658
Ayyyy, I think I fought you in Anor londo at some point over the weekend.
>>336177901
You probably did, although there was an Aldrich Faithful named Tarkus who was doing the same thing. There was a lot of gesturing when we met.
>>336167160
>sippy
shut. the. fuck. up.
>>336178094
sippy
Maybe you should play more like this guy OP

>>336176245
Just stay out of Anor Londo. That place is boring as fuck anyway.
Ive breten Aldritch, now lvl 75. Am i fucked for pvp?
>>336178094
this is an extremely common term in the playerbase. does "fatrolling" trigger you too, you tumblrina?
>>336178892
50-60 is best. Just don't go beyond +8 gear and stop leveling up.
