Trying to do sinner invasions in NG. So far 2 out 5 people were hackers with infinite hp and stamina, both wearing Faraam armor. Also I used a cracked blue orb in the castle and i invaded someone in Brightstone?

Goddamn I will never put down a sign at the castle again. Everyone runs into the room with tons of ruin sentinels and gets killed.

Jack Trades posted:Has anyone managed to invade using blue orb? Every time I try to do it, it just instantly fails. Yeah but you need to keep mashing it. There are not many sinners in NG!

Ciaphas posted:I know the covenant of champions prevents you from ever summoning help, but can you still put down your sign and help another bro out? Does it actually make the game an extra NG+ harder, or was that rumor mill? Nope, the soapstone is greyed out for you.

kirbysuperstar posted:So, about killing/resurrecting NPCs.. I want a certain set of armour that a guy sells after having me kill some NPCs, or doing their quests, but apparently their quests give the item after the final boss. Can I resurrect them and still clear their quests after that? No.

Cowcaster posted:At what time do people normally open Huntsman's Copse? I'm at soul memory 500k and have been through the Bastille through both ends, and I just met the lady who opens the path. All of a sudden I'm being summoned as a shade by bunches of people still using the crummy starting DLC equipment all over again. Its the first area i do generally after the forest and dragon rider!

Sanctum posted:I've already been to Huntsman Copse and beaten the Chariot. It led to a dead end with a little dude who wouldn't talk to me at first, and later offered to let me join some covenant. I've cleared Huntsman Copse so many times that it's now an empty ghosttown. Enjoy never being able to infuse weapons.

Whats the deal with VAC now? The steam store page claims the game is VAC protected. Basically everyone who uses ds2fix (which uses a hook injection) could get banned if it's true!

88h88 posted:I'm currently reading through the thread but am about 3000 posts behind the curve. I have a question though, I was just bumming around the tower of flame helping some bros do some damage when I got summoned into a world where all the enemies did a billion times more damage and had about double health. That and there were 2 separate invaders but they were just chilling, there was no '****sucker420supreme has invaded' Bonfire ascetic. It was ng+ level. Also those were NPCs.

Bear Retrieval Unit posted:When using the small soapstone, sometimes when the summoner challenges the boss I get a message saying he went to another world and I'm sent back to mine. What causes this? it seems to happen when we've been killing a bunch of stuff on the way to the boss but not enough to fulfill my duty. It's annoying beacuase I don't get back my humanity and I feel like a dick for ditching him to fight the boss alone. There isnt a boss there actually. Its a hosts misconception that they can bring summons to the pursuer in iron keep for example.

THE PWNER posted:I've killed the gargs, sentinels and sinner yet I can still see peoples summon signs in sentinels rise for some reason. I thought you're only meant to be able to summon if you haven't killed the area boss? That's normal, if they are small signs You can always summon shades.

Cowcaster posted:Is there a trick to getting the item in the iron chest at the end of the really, really long pathway in the room where you can drop out the floors under people? Even wearing the smelter demon armor, smashing the water jars up above, hitting myself with flash sweat, and eating an orange burr has me getting cooked long before I can open it. The burr is what kills you. It drops the buff from flash sweat!

So ive tested out if you can progress in the brotherhood of blood with just invasions. Turns out you can't! I've killed dragonrider/chariot only with this character and invaded one host for a token of spite. I'm now sitting on 60 and I still haven't gained a rank, so BoB really gain only ranks from dueling. So to ever get Rank 3 you have to be the worlds most patient PVP savant.

If you run out of effigies or are close to, why not use the ring of life protection? Also you get a 6pack of effigies from the firekeepers once you reach the castle.

Your Soul Level does not mean poo poo, it's all about soul memory. Unless you want to intentionally gimp yourself there is no reason to not level up to infinity.

Broken Cog posted:I've realised that there are almost no interesting bosses in this game, neither in mechanics, backstory, or design. They're all just dodge -> smack (With a handful of exceptions, but even Chariot turns into that after phase 1). The only real difficulty is that they can either do so much damage that they one-shot you, or they can stunlock you to death. Bosses in Dark Souls 1 are no different. What exactly do you expect out of a souls boss? This game really is lacking an Artorias/Manus kind of Boss though. Freja is probably the most uncommon boss design wise.
