If you want an honorable duel I would suggest using the RSS not invading. Invading is the best way not to get an honorable duel, granted some hosts use the dried finger in order to get invaders but that isn't always the case. There is always the chance that you're invading someone that doesn't want to be invaded and they'll probably want you out of their game by any means necessary.ninjashifty wrote:Been doing some invading and I've found, it's everyone for themselves. I've watched two guys fight and didn't interfere while invading. One guy kept using divine blessings, against another guys, so I decided to intervene. We both killed the invader only for the host to start using divine blessings. So I've decided, there are no fair fights. It's kill or be killed. No bowing anymore, just suck the sharp end of my sword or spear.
Any thoughts?
Did you even read the OP?Mental Gear wrote:Why does anyone think an 'invasion' calls for honorable behaviour? If someone invades my world I have to assume he will try to kill my char, so normally one wouldn't go thinking: Oh what a nice chap, come on let's be friends. No, he invades, so he will be considered the enemy. I wish for a good fight but I don't expect him to have the same standards as me. So the way I understand it the nature of an invasion is a hostile act in itself and therefore does not call for fair or honorable behaviour, altough it can if both players agree.
Remember, you invade the other players world unasked so expect aggressive, even unfair behaviour to stay alive(like estus, blessings aso) or to get rid of you sometimes. For example if you invade on top of Sen's fortress where invaders pop up very close to the boss fog expect of get knocked off the ledge by me using force spell, because probably you'll disturb me getting summoned.
You red evil invader )

So do you use divine blessings when you lose too?Mental Gear wrote:Why is there a need to ask?
So you're saying 3 divine spamming forest gankers are "fair" because it's their world? No, that's bull****. I'm fine with Estus, TWoP, Hornet ring, whatever. But never, and I mean never are modded items fair or ok. Sure they could have gotten then legitimately, but come on, we all know how people get them. Hell, I have blessings just so I have enough time to dashboard. Don't play by modders' rules.Mental Gear wrote:Well if you have to question my conviction: Sportsmanship is what I like, so I fight and die by this rule, no heal, never bs, no humanity, no blessings, no mushrooms, no indictment, no whining messages after I lost, good karma.
I see you're not willing to understand my reasoning/viewpoint.
I talked about how I can understand how the invaded player sometimes will use 'unfair' methods(ganking, blessings, whatever) just to save his hide and how there are moments in the game when an invasion is kind of inconvenient and said invaded player wants to get rid of the invader in a fast and cheap way. Just because I tolerate or try to understand the reasoning behind such behaviour does not mean I pop divine blessings.
If you don't expect honor out of anyone else, why would you bow? I would just BS you as your bowing. But i have play with "honor" so i bow back. If i go somewhere like the forest where i know no one cares about that i won't bow once, because i'll just regret it.Hawkins172 wrote:i don't see why anyone would expect honour in a game. suit yourself if you bow or not. i do bow most of the times(if i get the chance) but thats for my own sense of honour not because i expect anyone else to have a sense of honour.
