Thank you very much My biggest problem is 1v2-3 for sure. Usually SoVs are very well behaved, especially in UB and DG, but I very often end up in awkward combinations of red and blue. The other day I had one main opponent in giants with a lightning zwei, another constantly behind me spamming dark hand, and one more who kept jumping around doing nothing but distracting me, haha. I noticed your tag, so I'll give that a read. Guess I'm just curious what kinds of builds people favour for dealing with multiple enemies. I've done my time in Darkmoon so I should know, but I don't always have the time to work on perfect strategies. The best I have right now is karmic justice/RTR which causes a few surprises... before I get overwhelmed anyway haha.

Builds I'm not all that handy with, but in the PvP section you can post and ask questions about designing builds, Blaine and some of the others are definite beasts when it comes to creating PvP characters and placing stats.

Most of my ideas and tactics can be found in the thread in my signature, it has a plethora of information really. I'd rather not clutter things up too much with plans for dealing with multiple opponents, so instead I always just link people to that thread.

Well actually this is one of the remaining mysteries of this covenant. I have read accounts where the BP's materialize in front of a player. In fact I was in private chat with a friend when it happened to him in the moonlight butterfly part of the forest.

However, I has not happened to me yet. The only times I saw them was after visiting a bonfire. However, one time I saw a gravelord sign on the ground and went to look for them and they were there with out me visiting the bonfire so maybe that time they did materialize but I was not there to witness it.

I tried having both my GL and WSS up at the same time, and the GL didn't get any hits, but after I came back from the WSS, I found I was no longer surrounded by a dark aura.

Take that for what you will.

I may have made a terrible mistake by leaving the poll on indefinately. That wasn't my intention and I don't know if I can change it.

Meh thats how things go.

Edit: While I love how classy it makes us sound most people won't even recognise it as something tied to Nito unless we tell them about it.

Or starting a new thread. Which i have done by the way. I've narrowed down the choices to the four which recieved votes and, though this may annoy some voters, changed the Latin Dominus de Miseria to the English Lords of Misery.

I feel this will get us more recognition as Latin is more or less a dead language.

EDIT: You should definitely talk with Broke, he is sending messages to the GL and Hunters on the Xbox using I believe the book of sinners. I should do the same on the PSN as well, damn do I hate typing using a controller. I really need to buy one of those little keyboard attachment things if they have it on the PS3.
