Congrats on becoming a dks addict lol, have u gotten into pvp yet?


If you mean hardcore into PvP matches then no. I have however gotten a decent amount of experience from invasions and can hold my own against a mediocre player. Lately I have been taking my level 20 sorcerer into undead burg and allowing invaders there (I left the demon boss alive for this.) That has been giving me some good practive before I decide to dive head first into hardcore PvP. I enjoy some of the messages I get when I help someone in co-op in that area and do almost 1500 damage with my rapier on a parry and reposte. I get a lot of messages saying I'm a glitcher and have even had people send me home. I try to tell them that I just basically went through the game as a low level character. Some just don't believe me I guess.

Check out some pvp vids with commentary.  Jblackmel(YouTube),  myrtyrsbrigade is a great source for info on tactics and builds. 

Is there much pvp on Xbox?  I'm on ps3 usually it's pretty good.

also have u tried forest invading?  Very intense fighting 1 v 2,  luv it

I'm sure there is probably more of a pvp base on ps3 since it has a bigger install base there. On 360 it's pretty good and fairly consistent. Sometimes it might take a few minutes to invade/get invaded and sometimes invasions can b constant. 

I have tried a few invasions in the forest. Those were pretty intense and enjoyable.

I think I have heard of jblackmel and watched a few of his videos. He seems to get pretty detailed about it. I think the only major thing holding the pvp back is the lag that sometimes occurs. All multiplayer online games have some lag, but when u get into a bad connection pvp match in Dark Souls you really know it lol! I have had times where I was a good distance away and then all the sudden my health bar went down and the invader would teleport next to me lol. It all depends on how far away the person is that you are connected to.

If they can improve the lag problem which I think they will at least somewhat, it will really improve the PvP experience quite a bit.
