    I know that the forest is filled with some of the cheapest people in the game. Whether it's people who are backflipping Havels, or backstabbers with a lightning estoc, or WoG spammers, or a pack of three, they're everywhere. So I kinda wanted to make a cheap character to take out the cheap people. Not to try to fix the problem(On the contrary, I love it) but just to try to make some of them angry.

    I would like a recommended level to stop so I could fight with most of the people who farm the forest. I was thinking 50. My plan is to make use of the Ring of Fog and the Camouflage spell and use a bandits knife and hornet ring to get 1 hit kills. A few questions though

    Which is strongest out of a +5 lightning bandits knife, +5 Chaos bandits knife with 10 humanity or a +15 bandits knife with 30 or 40 Dex?

    What armor makes me MOST invisible with the Ring of Fog? I was thinking it'd be something black like gold-hemmed robes.

    Afaik, there's no level restriction in the forest, for forest hunters. Uncertain if the same applies for darkwraith invasions.
    A lightning rapier will outperform a lightning bandits knife for backstabs, if that's what you're aiming for. If you go lightning, then don't bother with more than meeting the requirements of the weapon, since it doesn't scale with stats at all.

    you could try a mail breaker... has pretty good critical rating and low requirements so you can boost you survivability or a magic stat.

    One hit kill backstabs? You should probably go with the BKGA+5 lol. But you're dex so I don't really know.

    Since there are no level restrictions in the forest, you might as well go to a high SL. Lightning or Chaos Rapier +5 will give you the best BS damage. Some of it depends on your humanity and their armor.

    When will people understand that the forest is the worst place to use chameleon ?

    You're darker than the other trees, it's not that hard to differentiate.

    most people aren't that observant, plus you can augment that effect with the lighting from the glow flowers. my favorite trick is to cast chsm and then chameleon so i look like a christmas tree.

    What about hidden body instead of chameleon? I havn't used it but copped it once and had no idea they were behind me until I copped a sunlight spear to the back. Not too sure how viable it is though

    with the right colored armor it makes it very hard to see fog ring or hidden body users.

    also recently encountered a host in the forest who cosplayed as the sorceror npc. soul spear to the back of the head.

    as there no level restrictions for forest pvp... how long would it take to get to lvl 600 or so? no reason not to after all.
