Allowing players to summon without the risk of invasion is something I would detest, as I find invaders to be a great balance to summons. Glitches aside.
people are good enough to get lightning weapons at starting level. Lightning and Chaos weapons were nerfed, but they are still OP around level 10.
No offense, but no, they don't. Most players who are skilled enough to get end-game gear at base level don't care at all for invading newbs. If anything, they might get curious, stomp a few noobs, and decide it's boring as hell, before returning to level and skill-appropriate endeavors.WandererReece wrote:[...]What do these "skilled" players do? They get lightning +5 and chaos +5 weapons and go to the burg to kill newbies. Newbies who have only what they started with.

Point is, gankers are going to gank. You can nerf their strength by 5% but the massive gear advantage will remain. It really is not hard to transfer items, kill ceaseless, grab elite knight set. To newer players it might be a huge problem, veteran players know there are 3 golden pine resin that i personally save for church invaders.

It dramatically alters the intended starter experience for newcomers, and yes there are still some out there. The bb glitch was patched at an opportune time as there will likely be a new wave of people jumping in to discover the game as the Dks2 hype train picks up.
The notion that there are folks who grind the game at low lvls to invade is real, but an exceedingly small portion. The large majority are twinked out bb toons, and adding to this distention is the arms race to keep up with a rookie host summoning helpers who are equally twinked out. The entire first portion of the game, up to the first bell is a long tutorial of sorts, and individuals have been cheated out of it by both the invaders and helpers.
Any rookie to this game enters the online world and is like an ant walking through the battlefield of gods. It forces them to either play offline which is a partial experience, or endure being the cargo in an escort mission.
This, but also work for magic damage. And possibly be able to do this with divine/occult effects as well.SlakeMoth wrote:I'd like bows to do elemental damage when you upgrade them into fire or lightning and not depend on the ammo.

I was only thinking about the ones you get from chests. And either way, 2, 8, or 9, my point remains the same: that it's too insignificant an amount of them for me to use. I like things I can rely on, not something that'll give me a one-off crutch.WandererReece wrote:You're both wrong. There are 9 per playthrough, or 8 if you are offline. Thats not including the 2 that you can start with.

Elaboration:
We all know you can't invade people with dead boss. Makes sense, since they can't escape through boss fog and that's why we can't invade with area that don't have bosses, like Valley of Drakes.
But you can invade people from area where you killed the boss, meaning you can invade, but have no risk of being invaded yourself.
It's not fair. :|
Darkwraiths can invade like this and don't have to deal with Darkmoons and the other way around.
Similary, if a Gravelord gets invaded by DW, he can't infect the said DW as a revenge, because he's likely to have his boss dead and with dead boss, there's no Gravelord Sign.
I would enable invasions, only if the boss is alive in both invaders and hosts worlds. Only summon signs, would be allowed if the boss is dead in the phantoms world. All signs though, WSS, RSS, Dragon Eye.
I think this would greatly help Darkmoon, Gravelord and Path of Dragon Covenant members.
I would also add the feature of not being able to summon Red phantoms when you got an White/Gold phantom present, but still be able to summon one if you got an invader, or another RSS phantom. This would apply to Dragonbros as well.
