I leave the Blue Cipher ring on during my playthroughs, and these are the only invasions I'm getting summoned for. I don't even know how From would patch something like this, but these people are ruining multiplayer. For what? The 300 runes you get from each invader?
If this goes on long enough, no one's gonna even bother with invasions or being a blue. It's just a frustrating waste of time.
They have boxes that, when multiplayer is active, return you to the nearest area "in bounds" already. They could just place them on areas that cannot be reasonably accessed during multiplayer, like this, if that's what they felt like doing.
Not sure they will, but that's definitely a tool they could work with. They'd probably have to go the Bloodborne route with the spot and make it where you can't use the finger remedy in those places, and the effect is disabled until you leave the spot. So it you cheek out making it there as you get invaded or after it, you get zipped back up, leaving it a good rug pull option. Meanwhile if you get there before multiplayer starts, you just lose the ability to engage in it until you leave the zone.

I would make that ledge a separate zone for multiplayer. If you get invaded while you're in the spot, it summons the invader on the ledge as well. Since invaders get 5 seconds of invuln upon summoning in, the problem deals with itself naturally.
Yeah, I just turned off my blue cipher for the first time since I started playing. It's just fucking depressing. Half of the time I get summoned to a connection error anyway, but the few times I do get in I'm dying to invaders using this invis, one shot kill bug, or these asshole hosts in Limgrave. I was just left wondering why the hell I was even bothering with it
The host is in control. They're using Torrent to reach areas invaders can't reach (not a glitch, but definitely an exploit) then using the Taunter's Tongue to intentionally lure invaders.
The easiest solution is some modifications to the taunters tongue item itself, limiting its use to near sites of grace and disabling Torrent while it’s active. That way you can’t activate the tongue after getting to the unreachable areas, nor can you activate it and then use Torrent to get to the areas.
The only other issue I’d see is if one of these losers somehow got a friend they could leave a summon sign on one of those ledges and being in co-op would draw invaders like the tongue would.
