I don't understand Matchmaking

[Patient Kain]

I am sunbro SL51 placing my sign at SnO but no one summons me for 30 minutes. What weapon level is good to get sunbro summoned? I currently have WL+0 and no uniques picked up, so my melee is like a wet noodle. I guess it's time I upgraded anyway

I appreciate the responses, but they don't really answer my question. I am asking for a recommended weapon level for faster summons to help others in the Anor Londo area, specifically for the Ornstien and Smough fight.

Well, the video answers that. Everything after Sens: +15

you could also try global matchmaking instead of local if you haven't done that already

Only if you care about endgame co-op and pvp. +10 Will allow you to play with pretty much anyone provided they're in the same SL range.
+10 titanite upgrade
+3 unique weapon upgrades like the black knight weapons
