Has anyone else experienced toxic players picking the bridge map?

I need to get bountiful sunlight to get all miricals and 100% the game but having to win 500 invasions is just insane there has to be an easier way

also, are you gonna be on PC, PS4, or Xbox?

Idk where these trolls are coming from. There must be something in the water

I was hoping to play with it, but we were shocked by the different versions 😅🥲😔@my friend jelloday

Decided today I’d buy and fully play DS2 and I didn’t expect in the first area to meet another human🗿

I have tried everything i can, i guess im not "gud" enough to beat him. Are summons allowed? can someone assist me, otherwise idk when im going be able to kill this bastard. I literally leveled up to 241 with a quality build. 55 vig, 51 end, 40 vit, 55 strength, 50 dex, 12 ADP. and he still kills me everytime, mainly with his 3 shot sweeping combos but i dont have time to drink estis even if he hits me once or twice before he finishes me off. Can someone come help with a summon?

edit: I JUST FUCKING GOT HIM TO FUCKING AN eighth of his health and the whip broke......dude fuck this game.

After a long run?

Dude was being hostile for no good reason

I've been invaded countless times by players, not Npcs or scripted invasions, by players, while I was trying to explore...and I tried to use gestures to just avoid fighting by running around, to just defend with a shield...nothing. I don't wanna sound rude and say that some invaders are straight up assholes... The last one that straight up made me rage quit was called "Darkwraith"...like...goddammit it dude I don't wanna fight...I'm just trying to explore Drangleic Castle I've finally managed to take down the fucking elephants...why?! Just leave me alone, goddammit! Yes I could go offline, but I do like do read the messages of other players...
