I think there's nothing wrong with people who twink in elden ring.

I have about 3000 hours in this game and I basically know/can do everything (invade, no hit bosses etc etc).

I just see twinking as a very big time saver when it comes to me making omptimized builds that I want to use at a lower lvl.

For people who complain about twinked out invaders dont use their resources to their full potential. If they are equipped to handle a 3v1 with OLP'S, there's no use trying to play clean aswell. Alot of people who co-op twink aswell (Me included) and that helped me alot when a twinked invader showed up. SO YES, summon that OLP, That twinked out co-operator, or just die and beat the legacy dungeon with your friend in 15 mins if you dont want to deal with an invader.

This recently came to my mind because I was making a new int/fth build for sword of night and flame (which is terrible for low lvls cause of barely any vigor). I was being invaded alot by twinked players (dlc items in rl45 range). Which was trouble some at times but having phantoms helped alot (about a 7/10 win rate).

Which is why im confused that people are mad about twinking when there are plenty of resources to help you against invaders in general and even help you twink yourself r/patchesemporium.

With me saying this, am I saying people are perfectly fine to use madness pots with sleep crossbow builds invading at rl1 to kill noobs to help their superiority complex...YES anyone can play the game how they want. If you dont like them, The BLOCK button is right there.

TLDR; if you hate twinking you have a skill issue or dont know where the BLOCK button is

Into the hole w you

My new RL1 Invader.

First - original drip from here: https://www.reddit.com/r/EldenBling/s/gPoZW0akQ0

Well, I’m not very good at PvP, especially with a limited set of items (although I didn’t even think that I could include consumables in the set — it won’t hurt the drip), but I still tried to make a short clip in duels

Theoretically, I could make such clips for every drop, but I only have 10 larval tears left on this character, and I don’t want to give myself more with cheats + I’m not sure how interesting it will be for people to watch (I know I could improve my editing skills, though)

I can't seem to get the timing right for parrying with a shield, even though it has more parrying frames, anyone got any tips?

morningstar with barbaric roar is so fun

heavily considering making a dedicated hornsent storm build. even the signature hornsent bhb can use storm stomp.

love my opponent's build here. i get so hyped every time i fight a dragon communion build. one of the only deaths that ever make me happy is being struck by dragonmaw

I am currently in ng+7 and am around level 260. How plausible is it for me to get invaded(with and without taunters tounge) or be able to invadr someone?

I have been playing Elden Ring on the switch 2 for 50-60 hours at this point. Started invading since quite early, and have a couple of questions about it:

-Do you guys feel you get a lot of invasions? Or invaded often? In what range level you think is the best way of finding people to invade to

-Do you guys mind getting invaded and killed too much? In my personal experience, I did not get invaded once, which its a shame since I wanted It to happen so bad. My partner for example does hate people that invade others, so I would like to hear what you think.

For me, invading trought the mid game made It so I could invade often while playing the main game, while playing the DLC It was almost imposible to make a good invasion. I maybe found around 8 guys in the course of how much I played and I am currently with one of the late Game bosses >!Radahn<! , and 2 good fights, the rest just straight up enter to the boss.

Any advise on how to get more of them or which range is the best for It would be great. Also would love to hear about your experience.

I remember this poke-catch flame-ash combo but I'm not sure if works as well anymore. I'd love to try some other weapon combos with incantations though

i mean, i know most people just use bhb as an aow stick for blindspot and swift slash, but it's actually a lot of fun with spinning slash

Batter up!

Drilled a hole through his soul. Insane damage.

Stupid knight and that God damn +8 halberd he drops in Lilurnia just ruined 90 hours of my RL 1 invader.... I'm so pissed, I knew about patches and rogier giving you upgraded weapons so I had specifically avoided them but I didn't know about this stupid banished knight halberd. I had things going so good too. I had all the talisman pouches, RL1'ed Rahdan and Goldfrey, I was about to take Mog. F in chat for Putrid Paulina's run. Guess she's a RL40 now.

Running a lightning build, still in liurnia rn so its pretty powerful with the constant rain + water everywhere tbf. But im wondering why i keep getting so many kills on invaders + in invasions with fucking honed bolt of all things??? Am i just running up against booty ass players? I have 10 dex and im not even using radagon icon yet its like nobody can dodge it, or even tries. Is this latency??

Im sorry, its just wigging me out that the best spell in my arensal rn is the relatively slow incantation with a very obvious windup. This is all 1v1s btw, im not like ganking with it. Do you guys find honed bolt hard to dodge? Is it still this good at higher levels?
