MrTaste Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I dont know if this is due to the server issues etc, but I have been running in and out of the door in the forest area for ages as a human, and not one person has been summoned to kill me yet. Does anyone bother with this cov or what? Am I only limited to those on the server I am on. Does anyone also know when the new patch will be out for xbox360. Because I am getting a tiny abit miffed of the amount of PVP/Invade/Summons etc that are going on at the moment. I hope it is very soon. Im on playthrough 2, I am LvL - 105 is this to high in ways. Because today I killed, Asylum Demon, Bell Gargoyle, Tarus Demon, Moonlight butterfly, capra demon, PinWheel, gaping dragon, Iron Golem and great grey wolf sif all on own because there appears to be no one to summon???

Gackt Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Hard to find that high of a level in those areas. I have a level 20 who I leave in that area and I get summoned to defend the forest every 5 freakin minutes. Though I am not sure invading has a level gap cap of 10 like summoning does..because I invaded a guy earlier with my level 34 Sorcerer, and the guy I invaded was 116..lol.

jshikari Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 From what I've heard/seen, not many people bother with the Forest Hunter Covenant. You may have to stay in the forest for longer instead of running in and out of the door, or you may have to kill or attack the NPC guardians.

Sentyu Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 when you run through the main door where you place the seal it resets any summon signs etc so best to stay in, and also not advisable to attack the enemys if your part of the covenant if your not though id suggest killing them first so the ghosts/fog ring enemies dont back stab you to death while your being invaded / pvping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nerevarine Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I'm just shy of level 100 and having a hard time finding people to summon, fight, etc. Odd because at 70-80 a few days ago I had tons of signs and stuff on the ground. Oh how I wish I had done these covenant things earlier... I didn't want to spoil the game and I did just that. That said I'll join it later today when I'm on and see if I can't get any luck.

I'm about 60 and I got summoned twice in about 10 minutes last night, but tonight nothing at all...do they have to be 10 levels either side of you? I also get summoned quite a lot to fight the area boss so i'm guesiing it doesn't work the same way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nerevarine Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I don't know but I just set my guy up in the forest with a white summon sign down and the cat ring on so hopefully something happens sooner or later. He's been there for a few minutes and so far nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL might give this a go somepoint, not tried invading at all yet. Ok will have to try some later areas, and hope people are about for summons/boss battles. Sadly not many of my mates have the game, or ones that did gave up and traded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can be anywhere in game, and will be summoned to the forest to protect it etc. If you win etc get some souls and award and then you pop back to where-ever you where. Same if someone beats you. Dont need summon down, unless your looking for help with Great Wolf Sif. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craze7 Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I was in the forest yesterday and a blue guy invaded my game, he literally spawned in front of me facing the other way, I just ran up and got a back stab then finished him off with one more hit as he got up! Sick burn! I'm level 125 at the moment, in 70 hours I have only been invaded 3 times and invaded once using the dragon stone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha Sweet nothing nicer than back stabbing, Mind you that happened to me once lol, poss not you though unless you where in hazels armour. I find it weird, whenever I went into forest door to get invaded I'd kick there ass, whenever I was forest cov I would get my ass whopped almost all the time. It is abit sucky on the old servers at times, Im not even sure if the server even know that im on playthrough 2 at the moment. I aint seen anyone at all, I was hoping to get alittle help with the anor londo bosses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I CR0W I Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I'm not really into invading but I wanted to get all the gear before leaving the covenant so I went along and did it. It was really fun but I just feel bad for the guys I kill. The first victim died from the NPCs before I could get there so it was OK, the second guy was hiding and then another invader joined and we ran around covering each-other and then gang banged the guy when we caught him trying to run away with his ring of fog on. The third guy I was spawned raight in front of, he started firing magic missiles at me and took my health down about 50%. I ran like hell through the trees using them to block his barrage and hid in the ruins by Alvina. A fellow invader spawned there but he was AFK and the guy chasing me started spamming him down with magic. I used poison mist as a smoke screen to cover my movement and flanked him, shanked him and got a good lot of souls for my trouble. I was about level 47 and expected to get raped by hackers.

The Nerevarine Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 (edited) So last night I was unable to get summoned to the forest (lvl ~100) but when I left the covenant and went in as a human I got invaded a bunch. Here's the important part, though: one of the invaders messaged me after a few times, he was only level 40. That's a difference of 60%, or 60 levels. For the record, I am on New Game + and he is not, he was also not alone, other invaders accompanied him. None of them had completed the game yet, and eventually after one unsuccessful attempt the level 40 guy invaded again and killed me. I don't know what this means, perhaps my lvl 100 NG+ character is equivalent to a lvl 40 NG character? Perhaps a level 40 and a level 50 together combat a level 100? Why would I not get summoned for being too high a level but it would send other low level players haplessly to me to get slaughtered? . . With the forest cov, all you need is the ring on. You can be anywhere in game, and will be summoned to the forest to protect it etc. If you win etc get some souls and award and then you pop back to where-ever you where. Same if someone beats you. Dont need summon down, unless your looking for help with Great Wolf Sif. I know. I was hoping someone here would summon me or something. I really just need someone to summon me a few times so I can join the damn sunlight covenant. I never, ever, ever get summoned ever via the soap stones. I put my sign down at bonfires and outside boss doors and will sometimes sit around doing nothing for 15 minutes just waiting and I've never once got summoned. I even put "Try humanity" signs around it and nothing. Edited October 23, 2011 by The Nerevarine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they sort this out with updates, if it ever comeso seems to be takeing forever . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magon Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Just a question, the reason for protecting the forest with the covenant is 'only' the 2 rings it gets you from Alvina? Or is there something else? I won't bother if it's only the 2 rings, I can get those in other ways.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
