Scarlet rot pot, instant rot

[Cchomsii]

Wanted to play some low lvl arena pvp.
First battle, a player throws a scarlet rot pot at me, and instanly i get rot status every time, even when i roll away perfectly on a light weight build. Is this normal?

It's not normal to use Scarlet Rot in arena on low levels. Check your recent players liste and block this guy. I wish you GL to find better opponents the next time.

This game needs an anticheat.

ALT-F4 isn't cheating either because the game allows that as well.

Did you know that it's the game that has to decide what to do with ALT-F4, and not windows? It's entirely possible for a game to be designed to ignore those keys. Elden Ring complies with the request to suddenly close the game.

Therefore, quitting a match that isn't going well is just as fair as twinking with items one shouldn't have at their level. Now we have the solution to dealing with twinks in the colosseum.

Sure you can go right ahead and alt-f4 if you're losing a match, if you can accept the fact that it means you're a giant manbaby.

But using rot pots on new players is fine. Now I understand why I have you blocked.

Alt f4 is a Windows shortcut that closes the application you have open. The application doesn't have to comply at all.

That's basically what I said. Thanks for confirming. Good day to you.

>low level arena
Character level and weapon upgrade?
How are you not in eternal queue?

They're doing it with sleep, too. My lvl 190 character (body type B) got put to sleep instantly. It's stupid.

Honestly for real PVP you're better off with a 1v1 fighting game. Souls games will never be balanced for fair competition. If Soulcalibur ever gets a sequel with decent netcode and an actual playerbase, it would be the one.

stack immunity or stock up on boluses or block the people trying to be cheesey

it already does. the anti cheat is there to prevent modified game files or programs hooked onto the eldenring.exe

well if you want to put it that way, forcibly interrupting multiplayer sessions is against the ToS so, from the devs' point of view, it indeed is cheating.

I was 20 - 30 lvl, I unlocked the arena in limgrave with two +3 curved swords and tried a match just for fun. Im not good at pvp at all and i lost first round, then the guy starts throwing rot pots at me no matter how good i rolled, the minute the pot hit the ground, i got rot effect status, every single time. I had lightweight roll, and the pot was hitting the ground so far away, but still, as soon as it landed, rot on.
