I invaded a pair of gankers who gave me 5 slabs and 7 twin humanities.I felt bad when an onionbro invaded so I tried shielding him from the gankers but they backstabbed him to death. Oh well...

I know what you mean. I've been invading the forest with a fog ringed ninja that does nothing but run away and watch the host with binoculars.KrazykevS10 wrote:Maybe I'll try the burg.I was just trying to brighten someone's day with my jolly shenanigans. :|
Needless to say, it's creepy.
But people keep ganking left and right.... I think I'll try the Township next.

Yeah! Sometimes, I'll use a few firebombs or spam hello to get their attention. I've got a great idea for next time though, I'll send them a creepy message after I successfully invade and hide. Any ideas for that?KrazykevS10 wrote:I wish you'd invade my world.I'd be so paranoid,haha.

Re: What is wrong with people?
From being a catbro, I've learned to trust only the blues. Often, those waves, bows, etc are used as a distraction to get you to miss the Fog Ring-wearing phantom behind you, to get you to do an animation (so they can nail you), or to make you think the are cool, only to be ganked.
So, it makes complete sense that you would receive the same treatment.
This is the Forest man. Gankers vs catbros (who often gank, assuming the hosts are ganking as well). There is no need to change it. It is a different type of PvP and can be exhilarating. I wouldn't have it any other way.
If you want rules of engagement, or rules of any kind, you should seek PvP elsewhere.

Re: What is wrong with people?
People there have no sense of humor. I'll just be there throwing firebombs in their general vicinity (not even hitting them) and they'll still perceive my base VIT toon as a big threat as a heart attack.
You don't need a DMB buffed Claymore+a ganking buddy to kill a guy with 0 poise, 500 life, who is just throwing firebombs.

Indeed. But, you're gonna need one heck of an army to hunt down and kill a fast rolling, fog ringed ninja with binoculars and alluring skulls!

The creepiest thing I can think of is pretty bad. Here goes,"I've been watching your for a while and I love you so much that I want to cut off your skin and wear it".Stalker trolling could be hillarious.

Ehhhhh, I think that's a bit too much creepiness. :shock:KrazykevS10 wrote:The creepiest thing I can think of is pretty bad. Here goes,"I've been watching your for a while and I love you so much that I want to cut off your skin and wear it".Stalker trolling could be hillarious.
I've been in the same guys world for a while now. I try to inch closer until they spot me. It's absolutely hilarious seeing how they react once I'm finally spotted. To pass the time, I steal humanity from AFK invaders too. I'd definitely want to see a video like this, but having some sort of Steve Irwin thing where you're documenting the host / phantoms.

CRICKEY HE'S SPOTTED ME!"

To me a protector of the forest is supposed to be cheap, think about the invisible NPCs and team up NPCs the forest protectors are all out to kill you.

Re: What is wrong with people?
The forest is war, and war never changes.
I can relate though, sometimes I've actually invaded a ganker's world and ended up being cool with the gank squad. It was weird and it actually ended up with me, another catbro, a phantom, and the host and we all did the channeler dance, it was the best invasion I've ever had.
If you want people that have a sense of humor I'd recommend invading in the burg or the Painted World.

Re: What is wrong with people?
For awhile (long long ago when most people didnt know what dark hand looked like and you couldn't lock onto invisible players.) I would wear the full Dark wraith gear plus sword and a Dark Hand with no shield, stole so much humanity and got so many what the hell are you messages.

Re: What is wrong with people?
I know how you feel bro
But like reim sayd you should looks elsewhere if ou don,t want to get 3 vs 1 almost everytime
I took a while of Dark Souls so to get my skill running again i decide to go to the forest and then i find myself with:
Twop and wotg, big str weps, sunlight buff, masters of parry, full havels, BKGA
And they even let me step out the stair case
I win like 40% of the invasions
Don,t go there unless u want to know how to PvP
Its an horrible place for newbies and general ppl

Re: What is wrong with people?
I so have to try the fog ring and dark hand.I'll go around,stalking the host and throw prism stones and archtree carvings around,running away when they find me.Then I'll try to sneak up and soulsuck if possible.I'm in for a fun day.

The Fog Ring has been nerfed so people can lock on to you, and most people know what a Dark Hand is. It will be tougher to pull off.

Hehe nice! I made it for about 20 minutes constantly harrassing the host with poison arrows, prism stones and attempted dark hand steals!KrazykevS10 wrote:I so have to try the fog ring and dark hand.I'll go around,stalking the host and throw prism stones and archtree carvings around,running away when they find me.Then I'll try to sneak up and soulsuck if possible.I'm in for a fun day.
I've got a great idea! I'll wear no armor, and inch closer with binoculars. But without using the fog ring, and I'm gonna try and bare hand fight for a few hits before I run away to hide. So far, it's been extremely fun.
I've even had them split up to try and find me. But, of course, that leads to a free bare hand BS while I go run over to the other guy to do it to him too!
Edit: I'm totally gonna message them an ultimatum while I do it too!

I know it's been nerfed,I'll just be using it so they don't notice me at a distance.I'm not expecting to be successful,I just want to make the gankers nervous about losing their humanity. 8)

Re: What is wrong with people?
Well, if it's any help, I usually go for a forest guardian just because I seem to get more PVP action there and I always go for honorable battles. I don't usually attack when people are fighting unless it isn't already a 1 vs 1 fight and I can make it a 1 vs 1, 2 vs 2, etc. I always bow.

Re: What is wrong with people?
You know there are times when I wish that the old dragonhead glitch was around. So I could just walk around going "Very Good," infinitely out of sight as people try to find me in the forest. It would be great. "Vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv"
Then they'd find and kill me.
"Very good!"

Good god that'd be amazing! Now if only you could coordinate that glitch with someone else doing it with force. Trap them in the corner and make them listen to irritating noises like that till they leave!Tolvo wrote:You know there are times when I wish that the old dragonhead glitch was around.
