Well, last night I decided to start a new character and mess around with 120 builds (for the 20th time). Currently setting up a STR/INT build, mainly because I like the larger weapons/Moonlight GS and trolling people with Chameleon
Five times I was invaded in the brief few hours I spent cruising through the game up until Anor Londo. All of the invaders were pimped-out, giant-wearing ninja-flipping griefers with lightning claymores and great scythes. This against me, who gives no consideration into upgrading gear or decent weapons until NG+ with Elite Armor Set and a Lightning Spear/Furysword :| I was sitting there thinking, I might as well just hand them the backstab so I can carry on with levelling, but instead I decided how much of a fight I could put up.
Typically most of them played by the griefer code of fishing for backstabs and don't pay much attention to keeping their guard up, so I switched twohanded with my tiny little weapons hoping for the best, and managed to stun-lock them to death with my pitiful damage. The only griefer who managed to give me grief chased me (literally) from one side of Anor Londo to the other throwing Fireballs endlessly. I managed to defeat him when he started swinging at me turtling behind my Eagle Shield and Lightning Spear.
Although the majority of this story isn't overly interesting I was just curious how many of you have been invaded at a low-level, being very unprepared, undergeared and pulled off a victory to surprise both you and them?
