Day One Invasions | Elden Ring

[@Gakusangi]

Nothing like low-level invasions. Especially at the start of the game where not everyone knows where everything is. It just gets you some nice, straight-forward, non-gimmicky matches.

[@IamMillennia]

I was the one who fell down the elevator haha I was mad I thought it was still up so I didn’t know I was gonna fall 😂

[@cosmicallupus2201]

You enjoyed falling

[@ThatRipOff]

Well, on the bright side, you didn't have to wait for the elevator to come back down after you respawned lol

Bleed seems AMAZING. And, I honestly hope it doesn't get nerfed. Status effects need a comeback.

[@a_angry_bunny]

Bleed was amazing in DS3 as well until it was nerfed.

[@xeniamorph]

Yeah, all the status effects in DS3 were basically pointless. Here's hoping that doesn't happen to Elden Ring!

[@Fano2311]

I’m hoping we have viable “luck” builds this time with so many bleed themed abilities/weapons

[@Ezekiel_Allium]

Arcane is also connected with dragon miracles, so I bet some clerics are gonna be throwing around bleed quite a bit

[@BonesYourDaddy]

Nerfs shouldn’t happen. I know they will but I wish they wouldn’t

that fight with the host on the rising elevator was so cool, it was like out of an action movie or something

[@OniBoy02]

I remember being in a fight club on DS3 a few years ago and I had killed three players in a row, I had so much euphoric adrenaline pumping through me that I didn’t even realize what I had done until I stopped for a moment and self reflected. I lost all confidence in myself as I was broken away from the moment and ended up dying in the next round from overthinking things. That was a big learning moment for me.

[@x1r0n83]

I just started the game yesterday having never played any souls before. I was so excited to get invaded with my little starter set and nothing what so ever upgraded 🤣 Had a good time as a newb, even got a few hits in. Cheers to my many hours ahead as I progress!

[@NihilisticGoliath]

Low-level Soulsbourne PvP is so much fun to watch, when not everyone debuffs or kills in two hits. :)

[@a_angry_bunny]

I'm kind of sad that I can't get invaded while solo. Though, I suppose that would get kind of annoying pretty quickly.

[@James_Rustled]

You can if you use the taunting tongue

[@k--music]

Not a fan of PVP so far, I can't get invaded bc I play solo and invading is almost out of the picture since nearly every one ends up in a 3v1 or a squad of gankers, hope we get an arena or a new irythill to fight club in

[@Nomgoose]

Kill the invader in Roundtable Hold for the Taunter's Tongue. That will make you more susceptible to invasions while solo.

[@ChromaEquinox]

I've had the blue circle thing active for like 10 hours so far and havent been called once! I'm still in Limgrave so maybe invasions are just rare?

[@Nomgoose]

@@ChromaEquinox I had the same experience until I got passed Stormveil Castle. Now I'm getting summoned finally. I think since the game is so new, there aren't many folks with the materials to invade. And if they do have the means, you may not be in the correct level bracket to be summoned to help the host. I'm level 40 now for reference.

[@ChromaEquinox]

@@Nomgoose Ah okay. I've purposefully been spending my runes on other stuff because I tend to always be overleveled on my first playthroughs of these games. Currently lv28 and explored most (I think) of all the places you can go pre-stormveil castle
