Is everyone just using Honest Merchant?

[taciturn(o)]

Saw a dozen low level players with armor and weapons not fit for their level (especially dragonslayer stuff), have you guys no shame or Honest Merchant is just that common now?

[Xor fo xob]

i've got no plans to use honest merchant but because it doesnt get you banned it's probably REALLY widespread

Why it has to be a mod? With password system you can give away any weapon to any character, it only needs to be +0

That comment implies that HM is popular because no one has time to farm.
And twinks were popular far before HM was a thing, it's easy to get a mule even on PSN.

just run 2 instances of the game and summon yourself.
ez.

well... I think I'll need to explain with much detail then... whilst invading I've seen new players (totally new players that have a hard time with the pve - not including bosses because those can be hard -) using armor/weapons from bosses wich they would have access much later on the game, players are actually destroying their own experience to use OP weapons early on, why? just to beat the game? that is my question, they do have no shame or it's just common?

don't even think about saying "oh, but they could have killed dragonslayer at level 40", mate... the guy couldn't even handle a couple of skeletons at the catacombs

ok, Majin Vegeta, the 30 guys that I saw using dragonslayer axe/ringed city dlc weapons/smough armor at level 30 just traded items using this very system, it was true for every single one of those 30+ players you are absolutely correct, I don't even know why I bother posting anything at steam discussion thread

Nope, every single one of the 30 guys was using mod. Because it is not like plenty of people are scared of being banned for using mods or are capable enough to install it in first place.

There are also a lot of people who have the items dropped for them by friends.

To verify that user is using HM you must watch if he pops up too many siegbrau. Otherwise, it can be anything. But HM twink is always the safest bet for sure.

That's not a 100% guarantee they're using them, before HM people would use CE to get them, or dupe them with save backups and drop them.
