Speaking of damage tests can you try one at MAX lvl for me....as I fellow rapier user I am curious if your stats would make it higher or not??
In my expirience buffing my rapier I always find that a crystal +5 will stat out higher than a reg +15 when buffed....just curious if this would still hold true with MAX stats?
GMK: I'm positive you've not only fought me... but been murdered by me 4 times! If I'm correct, I'm probably on your friends list. I invaded you on my level 20 char, back in my griefing days.... It was in the depths, i chainstabbed you 4 times.
Not one of my prouder moments: but yes, we know each other. You were level 300 back then.
Red Soapstones work at any level. I no longer summon people via them though, as noone likes being summoned for a **** train by a level cap char.
@Omega: As i said, that is a politically incorrect rant, but here is how i see it: Gankers deserve nothing. Nor do chainstabbers. If you are currently practicing either of those methods of combat when you kill me, i will reinforce my will by dashboarding: because at the end of the day, it's my way or the highway.

I appreciate the thought, but i'm not really in this for honor, just to kill those that lack it so entirely. Chainstabbing, DB spamming, and ganking will receive no souls from me, if i gave them souls, then they won, it doesn't matter how they did such, they don't care about anything but my souls.

There, now you're not so difficult to understand. Punctuation is a wonderful thing, even just a little is helpful.omega Elf wrote:If they were abusing some glitch then I would understand, but chain stabbing is legit (often necessary,) and teaming up with another player is also legit, and is either used by less skilled players to help even the odds against much more skilled opponents (or overpowered opponents,) or to balance the odds against forest hunters, who themselves, believe it or not, also gank.
Personally, I don't mind, as I like the challenge it presents, its fun, and is just a game after all. You have the option to not fight vs gankers or in 1 vs 2 but you choose to do so, for what I would assume are similar reasons, so you can't really complain when, in perhaps 100 or so fights, 2 of your opponents manage to kill you. Seeing as you kill most of your opponents with a 1hko bs, you're not really in a position to complain that when faced with such an opponent. These players team up and try to chain stab you, as you've proven, over 10 hours, that this is the only possible way to kill you. Obviously that is why the chain bs mechanic was implemented in this game, no player deserves to be 100% unbeatable.
Anyway, lets face it getting kills through bs of any kind takes little to no skill in this game against any but the most skilled opponents, so if they do manage to get a bs on you, I would say they deserve a cookie and certainly not to for you to glitch out.

My response is "to each their own." It is a game, after all.
Forum Pirate wrote:I'm not sure, its possible. That isn't my understanding of commas work in ""s so I assumed.
My point with that was: run on sentences get incredibly difficult for me to read or understand, and as the length increases it gets more difficult very quickly. I'm positive I'm not alone in possessing this opinion, though I do read a lot, so its possible that the lack of punctuation simply confuses me, because I'm not used to its absence.
Counterpoint: These same players would chainstab me regardless of if i backstabbed them for 1 hit 1 kill or not: as we have been chainstabbed insurmountable times until i started to fight them with their own tactics. Furthermore, Chain Backstabs occur because if you press any buttons while standing up, you break an invulnerability built into the backstabs. If you push no buttons, you have 0.5 seconds of backstab invulnerability, but this invulnerability period breaks when we move, thereby proving that chainstabbing is NOT an intended game feature, and should not be treated as such.omega Elf wrote:

I make no such points, i just kill the host.DarkW17 wrote:I tried to waltz into the forest months ago and duel gankers....its about as productive as banging your head against a wall IMO!
The only tactic is to go for OHKO's if you wanna be a good forest hunter PERIOD end of story enough said please if you have spent more than 10 minutes as a hunter you would already know this!
Its funny that you meantion that 'rushing in' mentality Rynn its sooooo true of gankers....hey there's 3 of us and 1 of him and he's mostly naked let's get him...then all 3 proceed to rush you....duh dumn move that's the easiest way to land a BS is backing up then rushing them for a pivot....I just pickem off 1 by 1 till its just the host then I make it a point to parry him for a OHKO!!

as for 2 v 1: you can not control if you must fight this. Gankers stand on top of your spawn point, and if they fail to do such, a ganker will always rush you at wherever you do spawn. Often you do not have time to use your black crystal. If it was genuinely my intent to face a 2 v 1, i would not be dashboarded when i loose one, but as these players are being a detriment to the entire community, i see it as my job to crush them completely and entirely, and unlike a darkmoon, i will not award them for beating me.
I just laughed soooo hard after reading that postbarrywilkins wrote:many times have i considered ragequitting when i invade gankers, or someone tries glitching. however, i follow the small voice inside me that says "take your unfair death LIKE A WARRIOR," That's not to say I don't agree with you disconnecting like that.

Chain-stabbing IS an intended game feature.
I'm not going to debate anything further until you understand how the games features work and don't work. Claiming chainstabbing is intended is as silly as claiming the Dragonhead and other spell swaps are an intended mechanic. If they must resort to breaking the game to kill me, they were not good enough to beat me.Rynn wrote:Chain Backstabs occur because if you press any buttons while standing up, you break an invulnerability built into the backstabs.

i have no attachment to this game community any more either.Tolvo wrote:I've been very tempted to do this myself lately. I actually fight the gankers and often I don't go for a one shot unless they are doing someone like Dragon Bow Backstabbing. But with the rise of 99DB's in everyone inventory, killing them has become a real chore. Last night I had a forty five minute fight where I'm pretty sure my enemy went through around eighty Divine Blessings in Total before they managed to kill me and taunt over my body. I lost the fight and gained no souls for leveling up the character to SL191. All of that time and effort with nothing to pay off. Probably there is a video of me now on youtube, "Stupid Hunter Won't Learn to Give Up." Frankly I'm thinking about leaving the PvP scene in general until the DLC comes out, and only if it fixes many of the glaring problems which it probably won't. PvP is also a big part of the time I spend playing this game and I just can't enjoy it anymore. Duelists are summoning me to only turn out to be doing the dragon roar glitch as I spawn, gankers are having max possible health meaning that fighting them is impossible with their seemingly infinite divine blessings. I don't know when things got this bad or if I just ignored it before, but this game's community has utterly gone to hell. And I just don't want to be a part of it anymore.
