Roll catching.
Why. Won't. People. Stop. Rolling.

It's the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen. Do people have no pattern recognition at all? Do they panic?

You roll, they hit you mid roll, you roll again, they hit you mid roll. Repeat till death. Maybe try delaying your roll? Jump? Attack? Try anything else at all.

You know what the definition of insanity is? Trying the same thing over and over, expecting a different outcome.

Why are so many players so stupid? :sunekosuri:

(This is why you think the game is so omega hard. Literally made of stupid)

This has been a problem forever, moreso in fighting games. Scrubs exist, as Sirlin would put it.

I just don't believe they aren't memeing. It's literally the same mistake over and over.

If they literally slapped their controller randomly it would be a better outcome 😅

People are still falling for setup parries and barker bomb baits, most never learned how to level Vigor as well.
It's probably in big part because of the "ingenious" design of putting a delay on the roll command and action queuing.

because 99.999% of the time you can not be hit while rolling in these games during an invasion. The invader has ALL the advantages including lag and invincibility.
I have lost count on how many times my buddy and I have been invaded, we hit the invader with melee or with spells and it does zero damage. It literally hits him in the chest as he's sprinting towards us and does NOTHING. Then he kills us in 1 hit from outside his weapons range because LAG.

I literally lost count how many times this has happened in Elden Ring. How are you supposed to defeat a human invader when they are literally immune to damage and magic because of bad hit detection/lag???

True. It's just madness. I want to know what these people do on a day to day basis. Drool into a bowl maybe

I play fighting games which are dedicated pvp games, and(as Muse Snooze above explained) the phenomena you talk about happens all the time, no wonder it would happen in a game like ER.

There's no delay. Quit fatfingering the controller. Action queuing is GREAT. Stop mashing buttons. Stop ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with MY GAME. ♥♥♥♥ you.

Yes. That's why it's called "panic rolling".

I don't think you remember that well. Noobs exist, but a noob can become a scrub. Remember you can't communicate with someone you're fighting here in PvP so you can't tell them what they're doing wrong. If you could, their reaction will tell you if they're a noob or a scrub. A scrub will not see fault in whatever they're doing, even if it's getting them Ls (LowTierGod for example).

Pretty annoying if you ask me. I sit there and watch my buddy hit this invader with 2-3 spells and the invader just walks through it like it didn't even happen. I do a 3-4 hit combo with my Uchigatana and it does zero damage. Invader has lag/God mode

PvP wise, Because I can't help myself even though I know roll catching is a thing (see also: most of my roll catches that land are luck).

Also, in a more twisted "But probably true" sense: People are probably falling for lots of the PvP complaints that "people only spam one shot X" where roll catching isn't even a thing.

Kind of like how everyone keeps trying to justify "PvE enemy walks around to the side of a tower from the outside and no-clips their giant sword through it to hit you while you are trying to solve a gestures puzzle" with "No, no, this is tough but fair"

Why the ♥♥♥♥ would the average "I should listen to the self proclaimed experts screaming what is broken and what is git gud" sucker, worry about roll catches, when all anyone talks about is instant win buttons or "Literally invincible ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥" in PvP?

Like how I I can't think of a single time people ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ about the finger print shield ever mentioned "Also they roll catch me a lot", for example.

You laugh but a lot of the time it's true. I don't know why FromSoftware hasn't been able to fix this yet. I'm running a 500MBPS hard wire connection and I still get these laggy invaders who can't be hit

I don't think there's even a three-four true hit combo in ER? Why are you R1 spamming?. It's parry bait.
