Should the next game let you reverse levels?

fully agree with odin - make the soul suck a weapon - perhaps your foe can't wield his weapon any longer when u steal him stats....

and get over complaining about hte low level invader with endgame gear. It is in DeS, it is in DkS - it's part of the game.
If u are new, summon help, or make it hollow/offline. If u know what u do, make it hollow, or go other ways until u can deal with those invader - isn't so hard.

p.s.: most guys who do this low level griefing aren't able to win a normal PvP duel, so they go there to beat up some kindergarden children. give them their own medicine and host there with endgame gear....good way to farm soft humantiy very fast. don't complain about it, have fun with it!

for me, having a way to de-level retro fit from demon's would be a good thing. i don't think that a player should just be able to change their stats whenever they wanted, but if the de-leveling was something that the player could not easily control themselves like a boss attack, soul suck or dark hand level drain.

If there were soul level restrictions on certain armor and weapon upgrades I'd be fine with it.

I'd still make a mage, a caster, a paladin, etc.

It would also give the pvp optimizers something to cheer about without talking about how vital the bb glitch is/was.

Or a counter spell, that REVERSED the attack, sothat when you try to steal a level, you will actually lose a level.

What would be nice if it had a pop up menu asking if you want to advance these points. Before you say "YES" you look and double check you didn't screw up. I've done it too, rushing my stats and making a dex build a res build LOL. oops kill toon make new one lol. The pyro i'm working on now, i decided to go slow boosting it so i don't mess up.

I think that it should be allowed, under one condition: you have to use a boss drop to do it. Kind of like meltstone from Demon's souls, but you have to use something you get from a boss to go down one level. That way, there is a limited supply, but it is still something you can do for fine tweaking only. Naturally, you wouldn't get back the souls you spent on that level, though.

should also add from  AnCapaillMor comment. The other problem with demon was people had mules for duping. Also u could dupe stones and make a +5 weapon with 1 hour or less. you could be sl with a powerhouse because your bro hooked you up. I know this because i had a mule lol. But i never invaded. I hate PvP


Just thought of this while having a smoke.
Put an item like a special orb on a dead body. Make it a challenge to get too. Once you have it, find a certain npc that charges 50k for you to de level 10 levels.
The reason i said make it a challenge is because i saw a vid posted in here that showed how to get cross bow in undead berg near the knives. In that same area is a dead guy hanging out a window i can't seem to get too.

Thats a good idea, I forgot all about the meltstone...ah the memories...

..."Beware of white sticky stuff".

Seriously though, the poll reflects a very biased opinion towards the matter. I don't really understand why. :suspect:
