The New Meta
While I was invading the Parish on my SL99, I was greeted by a guy in NG+7 with both Solaire and Lautrec summoned. He had full Giant's with fast roll, a BSS with SLB, and spammed more dark beads and WoG's than I have ever seen. And of course, after I Lloyd's'd him, it went to divine blessings.

Re: The New Meta
Sounds to me like you happened to invade someone with a very high SL. I don't see the problem. There has been a lot of DB poppers lately though, i will say that. But how would they have Lautrec summoned in the Parish.

I for one enjoy the challenge. Even if I know I will lose. I just rush them like a maniac and give it my all.
NO SURRENDER!

It's not gonna happen, but I wouldn't complain if From patched it and turned all DB's and mushrooms into prism stones, removing them from the database.

Re: The New Meta
lol, I think you were lucky to invade someone that high level on such a high playthrough, must have been a fun experience.. though im sure the DBs kinda ruined the amusing affair

Re: The New Meta
Interestingly enough, on ps3, I rarely run into DB spammers. Like I could pvp for hours and maybe get 2 or 3.
In response to the title, I don't believe being max level is the new meta at all. It is still right around sl 100-150 for pvp. Sl 50 for pve on regular new game. You got one though and I personally would have enjoyed that fight even with the db spamming. A player like that allows you to practice a variety of tactics in one match, i.e. roll bs spell spamming, parrying a buffed wep spammer, 3v1 fighting, etc.

Re: The New Meta
How many DBs did they even use? Seeing as you did invade on NG+7 I'm sure they would have collected quite a few DBs legitimately.

Re: The New Meta
1 fight does not mean a new Meta. WoG and DB and Devine Blessing spam are really really annoying. Maybe that is the only way he knows how to win?

If you let Lautrec out of the cage, and then go talk to him in firelink, his sign appears on the other side of Solaire's.TooLeet wrote:Sounds to me like you happened to invade someone with a very high SL.

Re: The New Meta
Does a meta really even exist much in this game, I see so much more variety in this game then I ever have in a game like Call of Duty or X-Com.

Of course it exists. You'll notice it when you play with people who take the game seriously. Like on Twitch.

I didn't mean to say it didn't exist, I was just saying that the meta for this game is much less defined then a lot of other games.TooLeet wrote:Of course it exists.

Panda, this post is completely unacceptable. It violates the first rule of the forum in the way that it is a purposefully inflammatory and insulting post. This isn't the first thing I've seen you say in the last few days and you've run out of me giving you the benefit of the doubt- it stops now. Next time I see anything like this posted by you in clear violation of the rules, it's going to official warnings.SadPanda wrote:You might be in middle school, but that doesn't mean you type like an idiot.shadowzninjaz wrote:This isnt new meta...... u should have pick a different title also u probs just invaded a high lvl character that loved to pve and thought he might troll a bit in the parish.
