I decided to have a crack at invading yesterday because I ran out of things to do trying to catch up to Dave...

LOL I fail at it so hard. I only won 2 in 7, and that was because one guy was AFK at the fire and another rolled backwards off a cliff at the fire (I was in Tomb of Giants).

I hate PvP. My builds never, ever seem to do anywhere near the damage I see from other builds... Dunno why. Don't really care either. I've resorted to logging out if I get invaded now (unless I'm co-oping).

Plus I've noticed the current trend is to just spam shit out of that miracle you get from that Catarina onion knight guy - the miracle that knocks you back and does damage. To knowledge, there are no AOE spells like there are miracles and pyromancy, so my magic build is not best suited to PvP. Most spells are piss easy to roll away from and take far too long to cast.

Charlie, what are you stats?

I done some serious farming the other night,
And done a fair amount of co-op and some guys give me some decent stuff as a reward for helping so much.

If you let me know what your stats are, sure i may have a good weapon to work with your skills.

Or if you cannot recall, What have you put the most points into?

Pissed meself, there was this one guy who was doing the Boss in Anor Londo, he was decent stats and had some pretty decent gear. but said he had attempted to do this boss like 20 times.

I come in, Tank the hell out of Dragon Slayer Ornstein
Took no damage with me new shield.

Then when Executioner Smough takes the power of Ornstein, I cornered him, Tanked the hell out of him, and only lost a bar of health, was in there for under 3 minutes i rekon,
A right ass wooping,

He just stood back and made sure me health was full.

Only thing i hating about Co-Op is peoples silly mistakes.

Helped someone in tomb of giants. Ran through it like no tomorrow. He was a good player.
He summoned someone else.
And he almost got me killed so many times.

You know when you go ahead against a enemy, a little one on one,
And you know the move he is about to do next, So you time it for the attack.
And idiot runs in and attacks him so he falls out of routine and ends up hitting you! Gurrhhhhh!!!

No what you just explained states is the new miracle/spell switch glitch, for example you can buff any weapon as in ANY with a spell and then use it's AOE move like TWOP to fuck you up, it's gay.

I have lvl 135 for faith build
Level 130 spell guy (which i'll end up deleting as i dont like it anymore)
Level 41 pure strength build.

Just remember to get poise to about 35, will stop any stun locks/massive comboo damage people can pull off.

I haven't co-op'd any new boss, had to do it on me own, i tried to summon a guy, but u know that bug where people try and invade just before, it says "failed to create" and messes up the co-op.

If if u have a red pvp stone i know a soul glitch if u want to get some quick souls for builds.

[theENIGMATRON]

Get up a couple more levels then Sys and we can get some Co-Op on the go back on skype like old times haha!

I stupidly give my lord vessel in, half asleep when i done it, so i wont get a chance to get my red stone to invaide.

I do have the Red Summon Sign tho.....

I wudnt mind some extra souls, just so i can get 999 of my Arrows, its a treck back and forth to get them

I read there is two glitches today, One for Spells and miricals being able to swop / cast or something very quickly.

And the other is still being able to enhance any weapon with some Buff spell. I wanted to give it a try and my Great Knight axe, but cannot recall for the love of god where you got them from.
May of killed him / her considering my world has like no NPC's in it any more

Bored-em is a killer.

[theENIGMATRON]

Also debating if to pump up a few stats and drop the Heal and use:

Heal is doing nothing now really.

Karmic Justice

Karmic Justice is a self-buff that lasts for 1 minute. If the player takes successive hits in PHYSICAL damage (meaning melee and non-magical), the spell explodes, dealing massive damage to all nearby enemies and knocking them all down. A very effective miracle for players who wear cloth armor with no poise. If they get stunlocked by a combo, this spell can save you from certain death.

Requires: 20 faith tho, Might be costly in levels, but might be a saviour in PVP

Charlie, what are you stats?

This character I'm going pure magic, although I've only just started putting major points into magic as I needed endurance up and vitality boosted. Off the top of my head, endurance is at 30 (I think - don't think I got to 40, although might have), vitality is 25 or something and intelligence is 31 or there about. Strength and dex I got < 20, but just enough to wield stuff. I am gonna put more into dex though as it improves cast speed.

Sy, I don't think it was a glitch - it's just a miracle (forget the name) that is real quick to cast and knocks people back at short range.

Why not look at getting:
Moonlight Greatsword

A on intelligence so would do you good.
Basic is around 200 Damage at a +5 Plus stat bonuses

Acquired from:
Acquired by cutting off Seath the Scaleless' tail.
Player must cut the middle tail off, you must hit the end of the tail for the tail to come off. The best way to do this is to make sure you are as light enough to run quickly, run over and stand by the crystal you need to destroy in order to damage him at the start of the fight, and wait for him to shuffle over and do a breath attack. His attack will take a few seconds, then shatter the crystal which will stun him giving you plenty of time to chop or soulspear his tail off. The tail should fall off after about 500 damage and after patch 1.05 it gets directly transfered into your inventory, so there no longer is the possibility of losing the weapon for the playthrough, when cutting Seath's tail, while it's tip containing the weapon is inside the wall. You acquire the weapon, even without finishing off Seath.

i got a divine +10 lucerne, 600dmg at 50 faith.

I'll be on about 8:30-9.

[InfiniteStates]

I got a claymore which I really like that just needs the slab to finish it off. I think I need to just pump intelligence now. I can kill the tomb of giants with one great soul arrow and one R2 with my sword...

Maybe these builds I go up against have less endurance - or nearly 10 more levels in damage dealing stats?

One day I'll do a pure strength build as it's about the only thing I haven't played with yet.

[theENIGMATRON]

Yer Claymore will do good as you have a strength and magic, plus bonus stats,
well aslong as you make it enchanted

we can do some PvP and see how much damage you deal, sure luck will be on our side and see how we do, if not you can summon me stone maybe i picked it up from painted world.

will help you farm or give you anything you need tomorrow i have a fair amount of stuff, and wont need it for my layout

[InfiniteStates]

Cheers Dave

I ran out of things to do on my magic build, so started a pure strength build. If I can get that to catch up, I wouldn't mind pinching a black knight halberd as I didn't get the drop from the one near the hydra and the next opportunity is at the end of the game as far as I know.

[theENIGMATRON]

I will double check and see if i have one of them.
Something tells me thats something am missing.

But we can have a look as you can also locate them from here:

Can be acquired from the Black Knight waiting nearby a fog gate in Kiln Of The First Flame.

Can be acquired from the Black Knight past Patches in Tomb of the Giants

Can be acquired from the Black Knight guarding the bonfire in Darkroot Basin.

We can run through mine or yours or both to the end section
After you give the souls to the Lords Vessel, as we are sure to get a drop from them.
Very high drop rate they are.

Did you level up any more?
Will you be on later?

Well i did about 15 invades last night in township.
Got just short of a million souls, it's to easy...

Alot of gravelord servant signs aswell, which is nice because these guys troll phantoms so are very rich in souls

BAsically people just try to gank u here at the beginning with 1 or 2 friends to help them, they were all in for a nasty suprise, tranquil walk of peace, replenshment then spam the shit out of wrath of god, it's impossible to lose LOL.

They can't run/roll or lagstab.

I wouldn't usually be so cheap with the spams but i needed the souls man.
lol.

- i even invaded this guy and couldn't find him, made my way down to boss fog (manus) and him and his co-op buddy were using arrows to kill manus.. no idea i was even there... wrath of god and they both fell off, nice 100k... trololololololololololol.

Think on my ng+9 with this toon i'm gunna go straight for four kings, then to anor londo for the darkmoon talisman, which involves killing 10 people for the sovenirs, then onto township.

LOL you trolling bastard - they probably spent a shit tonne of arrows, then have to start all over again PMSL. If you're going to glitch the boss, why co-op? Idiots...
