So last night I was chilling outside the forest and moonpit invading and getting invaded. This guy name wont be stated invaded me do I ran towards his location cast my chsm and waiting around a corner that I knew he would pass. As he came running full sprint I flipped out and cast css in his face. The combo did 2100 damage and he ohko. Not even 20 secs pass and I get a huge voice messages from him screaming at me cussing and telling me im hacking. He said no magic build out there can oneshot him outside of darkmagic. He stated he had 1900hp. I tried to explain what occurred but it was pointless. My build cant link atm was 45 int 45 dex and the rest mixed into vit and stam. So wth is this normal to deal with. Also this is my first time with a hardcore magic build and I had all the magic buffs.

It's normal for most pure magic builds to get a lot of hate. Also as long as you know your not hacking just keep doing what your doing.

People can get jealous of those with much more skill than them, and may also hate the methods their killer used. In combination, these result in pretty muc guaranteed hatemail. Reiterating what Grin said, just keep doing whatever you want.

I failed to mention he was sl80 and I was sl120 he invaded me as a darkmoon. I thought they had a 15% on invasion or are they like dark wraith.

They tend to invade lower to higher, like Darkwraiths, but have a much more limited range of going up and down. Darkwraiths have no limit.

Re: getting accused of hacking....
Ah ok well we went back and forth I asked him for a detailed message on what he saw and he said u came around the corner and insta casted a css. I said so u didnt see the chsm above my head??? Then he went on to tell me he has over 400 magic defense and it would take at least 4 css in a row to kill him. But if I parry someone for 1500 with a large club I dont get hate....

That is a widely used tactic now. People have grown used to it, and therefore won't bother to hate on it.

This is a combination of anger, overestimating your defenses and not knowing that you take 40% extra damage if you're hit while sprinting. Don't let it bother you.

He was probably a Forest Hunter, or perhaps appeared in your world as a blue spirit when he should not have.

Don't you know hacking is now slang for "you used a tactic I don't like"?

Re: getting accused of hacking....
I was called a hacker today too (on ps3, lol). It was my first hatemail ever! Absolutely no reason either. I dodged his soulmass, poked his phantom buddy then stunlocked em both to death at the same time. That's all. I didn't even backstab or dead-angle or anything. I asked for elaboration as to why I was a hacker, but alas...

Of course, the people who accuse others of being hackers can literally never back it up.
