    oh and i would suggest having DKGA for if your surrounded and don't have the faith for WoG, or greatsword dance works well to.(however slightly slower, it is incredibly fun impaling three enemies at once) If you plan on using the bridge then I would invest in the dragon greatsword(the 2H heavy attack is perfect for small bridges)


    Welcome to the gravelord army!!
    I commend you those are really good tactics!!

    Indeed I hope you will consider join the Gravelord User Covenant that DV and I are trying to put together as well.

    They are great tactics for strength builds the BKGA is a fantastic crowd control weapons as long as you don't fall into the trap of overusing R1. Also although the Dragon Greaysword isn't used all that much I highly agree with you in terms of its power.

    For Dex builds I recccomend the Chaos Blade (or as I like to refer to it as the LifeDrain Blade) which scales with Dex at B and Humanity. Additionally the R2 attack is crippling if you make it work. Its hard to time and smashes the enemy down. Also good for narrow bridges.

    By the way, I've been gravelording in the forest to Practice for the Event, and there is a nice little trick with the Dance. See I've posted this for the hunters, not sure if it was brought up here. If you go through Alvina's house towards the bridge if you turn right there is an edge you can run onto. This will effectively make you circle around the house where you can sneak up on enemies from behind if they charge in but didn't see where you went, as this spot is lesser known. As they run on the bridge sometimes and get confused during that moment I've already been casting the dance and impaled them, it can also knock them right off the side falling to a sure death. Have fun with that little trick.

    Firstorm, Chaos, and Tempest does by the way. I test a lot of things in my forest haha. By the way you can even WoG from there, it's even possible to use force to get them off. Be careful though, the same applies to you.

    EDIT: Also a little tip, carry your spell hand in your left hand, so you can hug the wall and keep it hidden. If you put it out to the right the light can draw their attention to you.

    To all my Gravelord brethren - I have posted a special request to all forest invaders to drop EoDs if possible when they invade you. Hopefully the invader will adhere to the gesture protocol, drop the EoD(s) then BC out. I also provided some information on how GLs can be identified. Maybe some of you will receive a measure of compensation for services rendered twisted .

    Let me know if I need to make any changes to the information I have noted in top post of the mass invasion thread.

    I got a few of my fellow GL's setting up shop by the bonfire to slow the farmers down for the event. Any other fellow GL's on Xbox please feel free to message me, will be set to join your world to help with the collections of Eyes for Papa Nito! Beckon

    Rather sad I missed the main event, got home well after it was over. Didn't stop me from grouping up with one fellow GL out by the bonfire. Hoping to get another mass invasion planned soon!

    I inadvertently participated in this after being told about it the night before by a very nice person on PSN. It was so much fun. Even got a friendly dropping eyes but sadly resulted in a cheap backstab from a red, haha. Still, hope there will be more like this - I'll try and keep an eye on the forums happy

    There definitely will be, I believe the next one is cleansing the Kiln, I believe DW and DM will mainly be doing this one, but I don't see why Gravelords couldn't join in the mix.
