Get a Purple Flame Shield +10. As my friend lestatdark mentioned, the Damage Reduction this shield offers is nearly insurpassable, and that only by much heavier and more expensive to upgrade shields.
Plus it will help a ton with Flamelurker and Spider boss. |
Yeah, I've been trying to upgrade the shield all the way since I have it at +7. I actually broke a black phantom's weapon with that shield while we were fighting in 3-3. Needless to say, he was sort of pissed at that and he gave up because he didn't have anything left XD. Anyways, I was wondering if I should switch to the Brushwood Shield instead since it offers 100% Flame Res. I know it's heavy, but it looks like a damn good shield.

The 100% Fire resistance isn't worth the extra 5 lb and 5% less Guard Resistance of a full powered Brushwood shield, trust me.
Those 90% Fire resistance of the Purple Flame Shield +10 are quite enough to get you through the game, I used it all the way to NG++ and only exchanged it for a full powered Tower Shield +5.

PvP is really going down the drain for what i've seen in the few days that I invaded lately, it's either people waiting to do spawn kills, or people going around with Blue Phantoms and letting them do all the dirty work.
I haven't tried Red Eye PvP yet, but is it really just as bad as BP invasion? >_<

About 3/4 times yes. They will summon helpers to help them then summon you. They run away and waiting in corners to anbush you. It's sad really...
Thats why I prefer having a friend summon me and fight him. You get a true fight.

I think there's countermeasure for that, but I think it's better if you're a Temple Knight: When get summoned, try to lure them out, then cast an area spell like Rage of God/God's Wrath. I don't know if you can use Firestorm though since it has shorter range. But I think it might work
|
It takes time and if they hit you the spell is interupted...especially when they are always at your tail >.>... and sometimes they cast Anti magic Field, so it's totally 3 vs 1 with a sword and a shield ( Keel Smasher or not, good luck with that)...Plus those dudes were camping to kill BP's, meaning they cleared the level so you can't have enemies to back you up...
