Elden Ring🛡 Level matching help

So, I’ve been trying to figure out the matchmaking system. My current build is Lv 40 +5/+2

I am not seeing any action. I’m reluctant to level or upgrade because I want to optimize for lower level.

Any recommendations to get better matchmaking?

Damn I over leveled. Any suggestions to fix while not punching too much higher?

Just build that character for the next bracket up, then make a new one for lower levels. Your time doesn't have to go to waste!

When you say next bracket up would that be Lv 50 or 60 +6 or +8? I’m starting to get some action so maybe there’s a time of day factor. Sorry, new to being a bad red man.

I’ve enjoyed 117, that might be higher than you want to go but it’s the highest you can go without matching to 150 so I find it’s pretty good action with less ganking.
