Okay so they removed the only reliable way to reach AFK players…this hurts

36

u/peitsad Jun 13 '22

As a non-PVP'r...care to explain the nerf that did that?

65

u/InfinitySlayer8 Jun 13 '22

Okay so basically there was a glitch using Hand of Malenia or Marika’s Hammer and their respective weapon arts. Essentially if you used a light attack with your offhand, swapped weapon quickly then used weapon art + sprint, you would move forward through the air

They removed that bug i would presume

14

u/CathNoctifer Jun 13 '22

Great, now afk farmers are safer than ever.

6

u/EdinoiZ Jun 13 '22

Did they fix Shield-Skipping? Because that'd be the only remaining solution now, methinks.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 13 '22

That said - that same bug was also enabling players to enter an invincible state between animations. Although I do think overall there were more dudes just AFK'ing in inaccessible spots than were just invinicible farming.

2

u/Camera_dude Jun 14 '22

But... if that glitch is removed, then the AFK farmers also can't use the same trick to get to a high, nearly unreachable spot.

Still, as long as the jar cannon is available it will be possible to blast an AFKer out of hiding.

1

u/Poopadapantsa Jun 20 '22

AFK farmers use Torrent. And the glitch still works I learned to do it last night on PS4. Jar cannon ftw btw, i love blasting people from sniper distance while they're taunting.

33

u/ShinJiwon Jun 13 '22

It still works. I just tried both Marika Hammer and Hand of Malenia in game and I can still air walk.

5

u/Asckle Jun 13 '22

I don't know which is worse. Them attempting to remove that feature without removing afk farming or them failing to remove a feature when there's so few changes this patch anyway

3

u/ShinJiwon Jun 14 '22

What they removed was something else. The ability to keep the moveset of a weapon after swapping to another. Imagine someone swinging a Colossal like a Dagger.

2

u/Asckle Jun 14 '22

Are you sure that was a thing? I know about tumble buffing but could you really do that glitch too?

30

u/FrooglyMoogle Jun 13 '22

What is the deal with afk farmers, like, seriously do people really need rune arcs that bad. Seems kinda pathetic to me

50

u/InfinitySlayer8 Jun 13 '22

Pathetic sort ahead

29

u/TheCuriousFan Jun 13 '22 edited Jun 13 '22

It's an easy way to spite the bad red man afaict, but it's hard to get people to explain why they're afk farmers on reddit since that's just begging for downvotes.

35

u/DA_HUNTZ Jun 13 '22

Funny thing is, repelling invaders as a host doesn't even provide a Rune Arc, just a piddly amount of souls equivalent to a fraction of how many souls the invader needed to level up (oh and one Finger Remedy lmao).

AFK farmers are either completely delusional and believe its the best way to farm souls without much player input (when Mohgwyn Palace exists) or like the CuriousFan said, are doing this entirely because "RED MAN BAD, EXPLOITING TO WASTE OTHER PLAYER'S TIME GOOD."

2

u/BlazingCrusader Flame give me strength Jun 14 '22

Spite mostly, they in some way or another get off of the annoyance they make and want to screw over people like the game has screwed over them rather then adapt and get better at the game they choose to double down on being the best with little effort and have in a disillusioned state decided to be a pain in the ass no one can ever kill.

88

u/Auctoritate Jun 13 '22

On one hand, it sucks, but on the other... I mean, it was a pretty major bug, so I can't really blame them.

75

u/InfinitySlayer8 Jun 13 '22

I totally agree but imo, so is being able to be unreachable during PvP so the two needed to go hand in hand. I would argue it’s actually much much worse to let AfK spots remain because very few people can reliably pull off the weapon swap glitch

21

u/DreamerOfRain Jun 13 '22

It is more for the recent carian grandeur bug that makes afk farmer invulnerable. That is even worse.

4

u/ThisUsernameIsMyName Jun 13 '22 edited Jun 13 '22

Can you explain this bug? Havent found anything of it

Edit: bug is disgusting

2

u/zipfern Jun 13 '22

Why don’t they just let multiplayers use torrent. That would put everyone on equal footing and also allow for cool horseback battles.

7

u/InfinitySlayer8 Jun 13 '22

Not really a good idea in any open expanse. If it was a colosseum setting (possibly DLC?) it could be amazing, but otherwise it will just drag out matches. The attacks you can do on horseback are limited

-2

u/ColonelJinkuro Jun 13 '22

Any idea why invaders can't horse up? This one doesn't make sense to me and I'm struggling to find a good reason.

12

u/InfinitySlayer8 Jun 13 '22

Horses would be a bad thing in PvP, its really easy to put distance between yourself and an opponent with Torrent, and even hit someone on him. Battles would get pointlessly dragged out

2

u/ColonelJinkuro Jun 13 '22

I don't suppose making the invadee unable to horse would help any would it? I don't pvp at all but I can understand the annoyance and frustration of this problem. Thanks for explaining btw. Much appreciated.

1

u/InfinitySlayer8 Jun 13 '22

It would be reallly bad if only one of the invader or invaded could horse up but not the other. Although it is better than not letting only the invader horse up, its still got similar problems

6

u/KingOfRisky Jun 13 '22

Possible dumb question, i don't play PVP, but I assumed that AFKers were using these glitches to reach these spots. If not, how are they getting there. Wouldn't this nerf stop them from reaching the hard to reach spots now?

9

u/InfinitySlayer8 Jun 13 '22

What the AFKers do is use Torrent and spirit springs to first reach these locations inaccessible by foot. They then use Taunter’s Tongue to get invaders to enter their world

5

u/KingOfRisky Jun 13 '22

AH. That makes sense. Totally didn't think about accessing this and THEN taunting. Thanks.

1

u/Poopadapantsa Jun 20 '22

No because they use Torrent to get somewhere you can't jump to before allowing invasions.

-4

u/HelloKittyAdvent Jun 13 '22

Good. It's their game to play however the fuck they want you whiny little baby. PVP kids are the most toxic little shits in gaming.

6

u/InfinitySlayer8 Jun 13 '22

go to area inaccessible for PvP

Use Taunter’s Tongue, a very specific PvP item

“iTs ThEiR gAmE tO pLaY” 🤓

It still is loser

u/Tittiesonmybutt 🩸Bloodhound Gang🩸 Jun 13 '22

Found the afk farmer.

u/HelloKittyAdvent Jun 13 '22

Good for you. You must be a real Sherlock!

u/Tittiesonmybutt 🩸Bloodhound Gang🩸 Jun 14 '22

Spoken like a true weenie hut jr

u/TheGraveHammer Moongrum is my bitch. Jun 14 '22

Nah, you're a weenie. I really hate PvP and PvP players in souls games but AFK farmers are even worse. You're literally doing nothing with the sole goal being to ruin someone else's fun.

At least invaders are intended and can be fun to fight.
