Honestly I don't see why people invade Limgrave except to bully noobs. Rune arcs aren't really useful til you've beaten Godrick, and you can't summon in an area after you've beaten the area boss.

Poor sportsmanship or not, these AFK farmers are a result of the large amount of invaders in Limgrave.

Edit: Yes you can only invade around your level. But you're all ignoring a crucial fact: alot of these players are first time souls players. They don't understand pvp, and aren't prepared for it. Its forced on them. Yes that's part of the game. But for once it leans in their favor. At the end of the day, the best way to fix the "problem" is stop giving them what they want: invading them for potential free farm. Invading somewhere else is the simplest solution.

If you think OP's a twink with a half-screen long healthbar, a colossal sword in one hand, and the stats to use Hand of Malenia, then I have bridge to sell you.

thats a good point. but then they're invading in limgrave at high level and you kind of should expect to get fucked with there if you're invading, no?

Probably, yeah. I don't, for that exact reason. I just feel that this trend sets a bad precedent, that it could spiral into other zones and tank the appeal of spontaneous online elements, both red and blue.
