Bans for importing save games?
Hi.
I've finished this game on PS4 without online (just borrowed PS4 so no PS Gold or how it was called).

Got game on STEAM, totally not interested and bored with this game PvE, wouldn't be able to play 5 minutes of it without getting accidental nap. Don't want to spent any more minute of my life in this dissapointing, linear as - PvE.

I only want to try PvP in this game, so I'm thinking about getting "mule" PvP save with every item at start.

So, the question is - will I be banned for importing save to this game?

I've heard this game is very ban sensitive, heard that it's even more horny than Dark Souls 2 (where luckily I've imported "mule" saves without ban), so don't want to f@ck it up.

Does anyone imported save from nexusmods without getting banned?
If no ban, please for working link ok?

Thanks.

There is also this one, with very detailed instructions, that claims using it for two months without getting banned:

Is up to you if you want to take the risk or not.

Get someone to give every item by dropping = OKAY
Import a ps4 save that wouldn't even load anyway = BAN

Dude...
No ps4 save.
Example STEAM "mule" save from nexusmods.

Read full post, not just 2 first lines next time man, ok?

My dude, when I say ps4 save wouldn't load, I am saying this from experience in trying to load saves from different steam accounts. This includes nexus saves. Get playin', my dude.

There is a working tool for importing saves.

Just dunno if me banned, searching for someone who tried it.

Most likely. Save editing is tricky business.
If you do end up trying it, stick to spells, armour, weapons, consumables, and rings.
You'll be banned if you cheat in gems, titanite, or gestures.

The game reach for souls earned=spend and stuff consumed=earned, those things have to match, if they dont, u can get, either softbanned or a permanent ban, so, if you use a savegame from someone u dont know, there is always a risk that they used a trainer or a cheat to get either souls or anything else, too much risk....

That suck.

Are You sure he succeed with importing at first try?
I mean hasn't triggered "invalid save data" message at save loading even once?
