    nothing but kicks and rolls baby.

    Troll someone to death with your epic VIT and FIRE KICKS!!! Truly gain pumped up kicks. (High five, come on, you know you want to pumped up kicks, no. no? please? please give me five. Please? awwww)

    Would use fap ring over havels. The more HP on that build, the better.
    I'm tempted to bring my 'everything' build into the fray and use nothing but bows and crossbows and some faith here and there. Won't work if I'm alone, though.

    Does anybody have a good counter to the gold tracer (other than bloodbite, bloodshield, etc)? My build does pretty good except when that thing is right in my face. Any suggestions?

    work on parries? take a few swings from the gt with a shield then time a parry. I'm still working on it... but it works sometimes.

    Other than trying to parry or creating space then attacking with a reach weapon (spear, halberd, etc) - the Gargoyle Tail Axe is a viable protection measure against a g.tracer. The GTA provides the best buff to bleed resistance - it doubles (x2) your bleed, poison/toxin resistance. Also, it is a viable weapon to use as a primary or back-up - good reach, stunlock. It could allow you to go toe-to-toe with a g.tracer for a longer period of time - giving you more chances to parry or stun-locking your opponent.

    You know I might just try the tail axe. I've always liked it, but never truly used it.

    Any weapon with more reach than the GT works actually. The Gargoyle Tail Axe is probably the best you'll find because of the aforementioned reasons, but I like to use katanas so I just have to attack then roll away.

    I heard that it's been happening recently on the Xbox. One guy died in a host's world but was stuck there as they used him as target practice. He dashboarded and when he came back in, he instantly died. GG.

    When i think that something's a tryhard, it means that you can use anything and everything! I'd go the faith route too but going to NG+4 is a pain in the ***.

    Ya man it takes forever to do it properly like it did....he is my orginal toon tho and has only been lvl'd from the blood of forest gankers!

    I actually just took him to the kiln havnt been there forever...I'm sure the gankers still hangout there tho!

    It was pretty funny I was using power within with the crown/bellowing ect and 2 or 3 shotting bosses with dark beads or crystal spears lol!

    Faith is the easiest to land dmg for sure with the exception of the dark magic IMO!

    Since he is already such a high lvl I just save the try hard stuff for jerks also lol

    Sometimes I use rtsr/1st born and the crown and let the gankers beat me up abit till the ring triggers.....1 wog will do about 1250 dmg into full havels and I got 12 lol;)

    At SL 100+ the Kiln is pretty dead. The only 'legit' PvP areas left are the Burg and the Township. Both of these places have their scumbags but you get more honourable duels than scummy duels.

    Am I right in saying the new PvP level is 100 because invadings are nearly dead around 125. If so then sad.

    Hydreigon11 wrote:So i've been spending time here : https://soulswiki.forumotion.com/t16125-tryhard-anti-gank-build where people are discussing the ultimate try hard/anti gank solutions.

    And the plan to reclaim the forest was made.

    Use the builds listed in the forum above, or create your own and post them here to help people. Using things like the giants armour is allowed as we are going to use whatever we can to take these annoyances out of our forest, however if you do use the giants' armour don't use a family mask, just separate yourself from the gankers aesthetically. This will be cross platform.

    Use whatever underhanded, scummy and downright rude techniques to destroy these pieces of trash.

    If you wish to join leave a post, and have your build ready by the end of January, this event will take place on February 1st. I'm leaving a large amount of time so all of y'all can join so we can truly reclaim our forest and destroy the gankers.

    If you meet anyone 1v1ing you may either slay them or black sep out. If you do kill them however apologise and say you are hunting gankers. If this could spread to other places like the dark souls subreddit or other forums that would be amazing.

    Leave your platform(s) with your post so I can understand how far this project would reach. And this could be made into a monthly thing where we temporarily take back the forest.

    TL;DR We gon kill some ganking fools!

    Let's reclaim our forest.

    EDIT: This may go unsaid but join the forest bros for the invasions.

    EDIT 2: Leave your gamer tags/whatever the PS3 alternative is (not trying to be ignorant, just have no idea what it is called)so we can spot each other and use the look skyward gesture to greet each other.
