Is this the new norm?

[Nefarious Slurp]

Got a new character to the DLC, and for some ungodly reason garrew just had my number dialed today. So I whistled up some help, and the guy paused (I guess checking my blessing level) and then left. At garrew I was at level 4, sure thats not great, but its what I had found so far. And I get a message from him saying "if your not at 20/10 dont waste peoples time casual trash"

Is this how its going to be from now on? the hell folks

He was weak, couldn't handle the challange and therefore shouldn't be regarded as a worthy cooperator. The worthy try regardless of odds, some will fail over and over but won't give up. Find the ones that don't run with their tail between their legs and accept the challange laid before them

welcome to ER where people are scared to criticize game flaws and blame the players. Also due to souls likes becoming more mainstream now you got more vocal toxic idiots. Tbh the fragment system is very bad its just padding and forced exploration on the bland world.

That makes sense, and I agree about the fragments. They didnt have to add a whole new leveling requirement. its like ADP from ds2, weirdly pointless.

Ignore this maidenless behaviour. I beat the entire DLC with scadutree level 12. Sure was hard but if you summon help they either raise to the challenge or remove their call sign. Everyone plays different and just because he found all of them doesn't mean everyone will or everyone should.

Some even don't want to use these new level mechanics and go for a very hard grind to learn the boss mechanics in and out. Sure they get one shot by almost anything but thats their challenge.

Anyone who puts a sign down to help should help. Regardless of how hard or how much you struggled before and not lecture you on anything.

You put a summon sign down and you get summoned? YOU ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ HELP!

Who the heck is Garrew?

[Fahrenheit]

It depends on the area. If you're at the final boss and still 4/20, guess I can't blame him

[NOCTURN 浪人]

I could understand it if it was about Messmer, Bayle or Midra. but black knight Garrew? 4 shouldn't be a problem. what bothers me more is that many hosts simply don't put any points into vigor. but I still always try to help and simply see it as a challenge.

don't let yourself be put off, there are plenty of people who will help you

I have 60 vig. Not that it matters when everything can still three shot me

[Nxce]

Yeah well, don't summon and this won't happen to you lol.

[ezpz]

I have never checked the shadow tree level when doing co-op, LOL, the thought never crossed my mind, sounds like he had a major skill issue and needed the massive buffs

[toughnails]

Yes, I will sever if the host doesn't give a f about collecting fragments. Sorry, I'm not doing the boss perfectly no hit for your lazy ass.

I hope you have more luck with your coop partners in the future
