What's with the twink infestation?

[someguy216]

It's been bad in other souls games but this is just awful. Pretty much every phantom has maxed endgame gear and they all hang around low level areas. Like there was two guys in nameless king armor and dragonslayer greataxe just summoning low levels to kill.

It just amazes me how small brain you must have to enjoy defeating something that is no challenge. Maybe they could just go to the beginning area and kill those mobs that should satisfy there small minds surely?

I encountered some twinks on my lower level toon. I use a zweihander+3 at lvl 23 and well, not many people win against that. The poise stance tends to catcha lot of people off guard. Twinks or not xD. I did lose to a gundyr halberd person though.

What else is there to do? More 1v1? More 3v1? 2v1? Duel at pontiff and get summoned by hackers who get you soft banned? Meh. It's the age of the twinks, bend over.

Besides, it's not like it isn't a challenge at times. Most high end gear has high stat requirements and it's still 3v1. Cry less.

I twink real hard at low levels. +2BKGA with hornet ring and buckler. RIP

I'd find this hilarious to face. Most people I've fought that have their twinks geared never win cause of the stamina costs.

+2 works well? I thought it was only +1's that worked on twinkling/scale weapons?

[BlazeRomulus]

what do you mean twinking? the weapons will always be at your level of reinforcements.

I've met a lot of people with +4 weapons, for some reason. I had it at +1, then bumped it up to +2.. Still find a lot of people.

This is easy to fix with deep battle axe. That axe is insane for low lvl riposte and hornet makes it worse.

Twinking is better in this game than it's ever been.. outside of rings, there's not much you can twink, unless you're twinking at extremely low levels. Like.. level 5.

Well I never said I'd r1 spam it! I just parry them...

Atleast you won't face +10 weapons in low levels. Twinking is a non-issue.

SL 100 invasions are next to impossible to pull off - thats what you get i guess

[Herbalacious]

My last 2 invasions in end game areas I beat em. In the Grand Archives less than 1/3rd of the way up I was invaded. I just went back down to one of the areas I cleared buffed, and waited. Fair fight until he ran and estus..he ran into that spot with the broken steps near the crystal lizard dead end. I greater lightning speared him to death lol. Next one was in Dragon Archives upstairs from the 2nd bonfire. I just ran back down to the bonfire, buffed swapped a ring and waited again. Shared like 3 exchanges and when he was at about 1/3rd health greater lightning spear with talisman special and ended him lol. Felt good too cus he was using an Estoc.

Not all the invasions are bad just kinda depends on timing I feel like. If they catch you when you're already fighting and there isn't a safe place to prepare or when you're low on health and no estus. These kinds of situations are just bad luck you gotta roll with it.

even at highwall on my new sl11 character the hosts have end game gear. I think overall, gank squads, no poise, broken dps SS nd rapiers, matchmaking, twinking, hackers. this is the worst souls pvp in the series. Im just gonna play offline and do pontiff duels

I agree with some of that.. but if you think twinking is worse in this game then you must not have played the other games
