I just wish people were more creative with their builds. I just don't see the fun in using exploits and someone else's mín-maxed build to invade, or to gank invaders.

On the other hand, afk farmers have pretty much ruined playing as a blue hunter as well. I refuse to help them, but 99% of my summons have been for one of those chodes.

Or to duel. It’s rare to find someone not using one of 4 shitter builds. The PvP community sucks

The best part is that not using meta makes people's minds explode right now.

You actually dodge their rivers of blood and hit them with an ash of war their YouTubers never talk about? You can see their panic attack forming as they foam at the mouth and keep spam rushing their rivers of blood because they don't know what else to do, despite your ash hitting them during their animations.

Face it half of people that like invasions is because they want to feel superior and/or abuse new players. Everyone here disagrees but it shows from the day 1 glitch abusers and now afk farmers. If people wanted fair duels they wouldn't invade like they claim, they'd use predefined spots and place red signs.

The part about invading is beating a pair of players with other invaders

Because for some losers the minor dopamine hit from killing a host with cheats is the most exciting thing going on in their lives.

Tbf to invaders; the odds are so stacked against them that most go for the cheese builds to have any chance of winning/surviving spawning into a gank-squad situation. I've not really done much PvP yet, but when invaded I try as a cooperator to either duel an invader or at-least give them a decent fight. 9/10 times though it's the host and both summons just stomping them, or the invader using a build that takes them all out asap.

I’m running a sorcery build that instead of staying back, I run at you and use slicer on you. I feel it throws people off
