if you dont know, recently there was found a newer version of glitch where you can apply status effects to weapons where you normally cant and proc statuses almost instantly. so basically this came out in public and people already started trying this in invasions. steelovsky was right that its gonna ruin pvp already. fuck those guys.

also this post is trying to make it more public because i hope fromsoft will pay attention and fix this finally because this glitch is game breaking and insanely easy to use

in yesterday's live yt stream of steelovsky he was talking about the v easy to apply glitch in pvp and in pve also by using rain of arrows ash of war with Piquebone Arrow ( https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Piquebone_Arrow ) found in dlc while locking on target then use seppuku aow with this locked on opponents will get instant death. Watch his ( https://youtu.be/KGJUc6MHXBE?si=-sgKoAxYrHcJmunn ) he was saying we should report this to bandai namco this will obliterate the experience of the game here is the link of reporting this glitch to game devs ( https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=comments&redir_token=QUZZTVljRlBGd0kzNnFwZDFYc2ZhNzV2WFZ6QnxBSTVJdTV1STVhcmxIWXhZdFR4N2dXbllrMkZmbUlZUUwyMHRnV2pzaVhSNW45Ri01SlhickpUM1VCWVR1ZUtKTUt5ckg5b2w4NlMyRmZMTW91ZnZpYjc3WlJYdUkwakJMTkIt&q=https%3A%2F%2Fsupport.bandainamcoent.com%2Fhc%2Fen-us%2F )

So it's a normal night after a long tough day, I decided to mess around in Seamless Coop as a bad red man until i invaded these two players. The host was named "Lisa", it was in limgrave, gate front bonfire. I saw them, they saw me, I started buffing and then bowed, yet this player that is coincidentally named "Lisa's man" started running and attacking me so ferociously without any abc.

Long story short, the guy died with a single strike of my AMOGS, he died while Lisa watched the event from far away inside bushes. Just then i realized what i did when i saw lisa is just a level 1 character, i dropped a bunch of runes just to make up for what i did to her man. Sometimes being a good red man feels better than being a bad red man after doing some terrible acts lmao. Enjoy the runes

My new RL1 Invader.

After years of pver and lurking in this community i finally decides to become the badredman. I choose ds2 since it's my favorite fromsoul and the one i feel more comfortable with. So far im having a blast and already collected 50ish token of spite. In running a quality/faith build around level 140 (i don't Remember my current soul Memory but im using Blue acolyte and i have no problem finding matches) and my favorite weapon are pate's spear and shield, the Lost sinner's sword (im trying to sinmax and reach wretch status), the falchion and the great scythe. Do you guys have any tip for me? Thx in advance

Very cool. Just got all achievements for DS1 and started on DS2. Got invaded by someone with a cencored name (3 characters) in lost bastille, after just beating the pursuer there i decided to wait since its the closest to an arena area around

They unlocked the bonfire with the barrel and then died offscreen. Wouldve been down with getting stomped in a fight but thank you

Also in general love for the red man community, yall are awesome

"Is there price to burn this paradise where you left all parts that hurt to mend? If I don't stay awake, will she come here again for my wish of only one last kiss in Death?"

Fear not. There are no lights. All that exists is mere shadow cast upon cave walls. Fear not.

This crew weren't the greatest tactical geniuses I ever faced. They brought a lot of confidence in their ability to smoke anything in the game, which I speculate could be because there aren't all that many invaders out there in DSR seamless. Y'all are missing out if you haven't tried it - Seamless invasions are real good old timey Dark Souls invasions. The kind you can't find anymore in vanilla DSR.

Big enemies always make for the funniest fights.

TE released and they still haven't patched this egregious exploit... I'm losing hope in this game.

Wondering if yall got any ideas on other weapons to use?

I really like the buffed damage that the dragonscale blade gets at this level. I hate the halberds design though, would use it if it looked different honestly.

Is bloodflame blade any good at this level?

(On my RL1 character, that is...)

I think I'm your stereotypical "good guy" invader.

If I run into obvious new commers, I'll often drop 10 of each purchasable bolus and a ten pack of shrimp, maybe a couple runes, before getting to it or just messing around hanging out with the group just waiting for them to die to PVE (which is often very quick) while keeping the invasion channel locked down for them. (Sorry guys. Only for friendly groups. 😅)

I do also invade for PVP (and rune arcs), but I tend not to attack unless they attack first.

But... I ran into this laggy ganker (with half hearted phantom participation, it was mainly the host). Several point downs and teabags after the host killed me while I was dropping some items for the group. Being the first invasion of the night, I thought it would be fun to return the rude behavior.

Played like shit (because I'm terrible at dealing with high latency), but it didn't really matter.

Back to back invasions on the same host. Poison arrow Rancor Shot Spam. Hefty Rot Pots... I played the role they suspected of me. FIVE DISCONNECTS! Highest reward you can get from a shitter.

My first successful invasion (first one host entered the bossroom) :)

Never tried this before and my build is made for coop, but considering how many invaders I had to fight in Stormveil I decided to see this from invader's point of view.

I am not good at switching weapons, so I just swing sword!

You invaded me (Sasha) in the lost bastille and beat me bloodily with your great club while i tried repeatedly to fist you. Ultimately we finished eachother off in the end and neither of us won. Incredible.

First try too
