How to get summoned by people?

As the titltle says. Why am i not getting summoned to fight bosses? Dark souls MP was far easier... I have a level 30 character with a strightsword +5

Are you sure you've interacted with the little multiplayer statue in each area? Are you using nearby only or near/far?

I find if I use near only I rarely invade or get summoned but if I use the near/far option I typically go where I set down the marker. OR at least this has been my experience with characters ranging from level 10-90

Multiplayer is legit completely dead, From effectively just killed their brand. This is their worst release all time, Demon's Souls on ps3 worked better than this game. By quite a bit.

Dropping your summon sign in front of a boss room tends to not work because people will either summon at the Summoning Pool, or they are probably not be running a Furlcalling Finger Remedy and will not see summon signs. Putting your sign down is for Friends only.

Use the summoning pools instead. You can only be summoned to pools you have activated, but I easily find myself summoned (mostly for bosses) several times an hour, seamlessly, while I'm out adventuring.

Also, if you overlevel for an area, people won't see your sign as much anymore. For your level, you should expect to be able to be summoned for late - area Limgrave (Morne and Stormveil, and possibly Siofra) and early area Liurnia (pools South-East of Raya Lucaria.)

I used the near7far option, it just takes time that is all. I just thought that for a game that has less than 1 year of life, MP was going to be very active. Maybe i'm rushing myself... Thanks everyone

Its just broken , I tested the effigy near far multiple times with a friend using a pw , Sometimes it would take up to 20 minutes for my sign to show to them... complete bshit

In ds3 i drop my mark and get summoned within 2 minutes atleast , while its only a singular mark on a specifik bonfire... Effigy should work map wide , which it does not , Try putting ur mark down like in DS3 near the sum pool statues and u will start to see the effigy system is 100% flawed.

level 30 at +5 weapon is throwing off matchmaking. Most people are still hovering around +2 or +3 at that level.

Level up and start opening up summoning for Liurna and you should start getting summoned again.

Edit: ER wiki has a page that can explain matchmaking limits if you aren't familiar
