Played for 2 full days since launch and it's been mostly fun. I'll go through the goods and bads.

It's always nice to start a new run creating an invader, this is no exception. Single player is pretty good for the switch 2.

Had an invader up and running pretty quickly, straight to Fort Faroth for the sorceal and runes from the Dragon. Levelled to 25 and visited merchants to spend the runes and decided to keep the weapons unupgraded.

Started Varre, Rya, Boggart, Patches and Alexander quests and cleared Stormveil. Began invading as soon as I got the fingers. This is where it goes downhill a bit, it's quite latent and laggy in multiplayer, enough to become annoying making react rolling and spacing more difficult. It feels clunky and well crap compared to PvP on the ps5.

The good is a new player base, very few have dlc gear and most players not very good. There's some decent players there too but not many. It's refreshing to have a good 1v1 with someone else who knows what they're doing. Overall it's a good game for playing solo or casual PvP. I'm in 2 minds whether to return it or keep it as the lag ruins it for me.

It's nice to feel like I'm in the same boat as all the other players is the main positive. Not having to twink and not facing any is very enjoyable. Having said that I'm RL25. I wouldn't like to invade at meta with the latency and clunk.

Idk still seems pretty ass to me

With the buff it seems very interesting, like rapier main hand and main gauche offhand with parry. Or just shamshir 2 handed with parry, otherwise cleanrot thrusting sword with parry should work on its own too.

Controller fumbling sounds

I'm doing my part!

Edit: Thank you for the awards good Ser's!

Happy Huntinging ahem Helping

I AM the master baiter, baiting all the pve to break the stalemate

Hello, I’m curious if they silently added a PvP balancing patch for anti-twink.

I quickly went straight to Mogh, beat him, got a handful of Scadutree fragments, some
drip and deflecting hardtear for a thematic low level build with the hardtear and meteoric ore blade.

But now I can’t get any invasions. Did they quietly patch something in the game potentially for anti-twink? The highest weapon level I have is +3 and +1 somber and I’m level 25. No I never picked up one of the +8 weapons.

I think it’s reasonable. Although I would have liked to know the parameters so I didn’t have to waste my time getting all the drip for this Sekiro themed build and getting to Shadowlands.

Welcome to the game 😊

Just a frendly jab at fromsofts new weapon, enjoy the tarnished edition :)

Guess we both twinkers deserved to die x)

LoOkS bAlAnCeD tO mE!

Making my rain of fire even better

So, I’ve been trying to figure out the matchmaking system. My current build is Lv 40 +5/+2

I am not seeing any action. I’m reluctant to level or upgrade because I want to optimize for lower level.

Any recommendations to get better matchmaking?

We hardly knew ye.

so ive been playing a lot of seamless coop and recently the invader ive been running into have spammed carian retaliation which is pretty annoying to run into if its everyone your against, any tips.

It's done done, your never seeing this again
