journey to max level?

I want to take my highest level character to max level since I accidentally took it past 200 >=0

I'm gonna see how many plusses I can add to my playthrough count. Is it reasonable to think I could get summons for co op at high levels and also is there consistent pvp?

Sorry if this was answered somewhere else, I did search

If it were me, i would get my character to SL400.
You can still do co-op frequently if you summon others but you can only be summoned by those near your level or above you. Same thing goes for PvP unless you host. You can host at any SL and still get invasions.

What's the benefit of stopping at 400?

The benefits of going any higher than this are practically non-existent.

That's SL400. You can use anything and everything with no limitations.

I've currently got 3 toons, two of which are above sl100 (110 and 120 respectively). The other is a sl55 for online play.

Both of the higher level ones were pretty experimental and I made them during a time when I was less experienced with the game. I had a look at both of them the other day and both toons have quite a lot of wasted stats and some pretty poor gear. I spend the majority of my time playing with the sl55, I can invade just about anywhere and get summoned for co-op in a surprisingly large amount of areas too.

Although I reckon that I if I made another toon for multiple playthroughs I would probably keep levelling up as I progressed. A PvE-only toon could really be any level.

Regarding your question about co-op at higher levels, I used the sl110 to help out a friend in the Duke's Archives yesterday and I got 2 or 3 summons from other players whilst I was waiting for him so I think it's perfectly possible to co-op around 100-125, it would just depend on where you are and at what time of day you're playing!

No option for actually having a max level character? I got my 709 maybe a week and a half after release.

@Automancer, 60 Int/Faith for why?

I have a maxed out toon. I also have a 380. The rest are all 125 and lower.

For fun, i like even numbers. =X

50/50 is still ok.

I don't know how y'all did that.

My highest lvl is SL 200. I get no invasions and can't DM wih him anymore .

i have a sl 470, i still get invaded alot, but im having a hard time invading, and i havent seen any summon signs since sl 380ish
and i find pvp at that sl boring, and running through the game several times solo gets boring after a while too

go sl 250, if i remember right, i had alot of co-op and pvp at that sl

At higher levels, the best chance to get fights is if you host or arrange matches in the arena.

I'm upto 652 and I still find pvp mainly in the forest and Darkroot.
A lot of the people I coop with ive met along the way and their going for max sl as well.
I find it helps killing sif then putting my rss down in the the forest, I get a lot of high sl people summoning me.

^In the forest. Gankers are summoning you.

I don't mind gankers it just people who stand over you and cast twop when you are summoned, those I block.
I do find a lot of high sl people who are just looking for 1v1 pvp and then if somebody invades the fight stops till one of us has killed them.

Let's just say I did it before the recent patch. It is a build that my son and I play.

Well Unkdai, PS3's most wanted criminal in the book, is level 710. There has to be PvP activity at the maximum level cap, since his severity of sin is increasing.

Whoops, he's #3 now
