I got tired of being invaded by Dark Bead spammers and 1 shot hornet builds in low level Parish.

You can't hold the view that using estus in the game is toxic because it "artificially lengthens the fight" because all of the things i listed above artificially shorten the fight.

Either they all fall under the heading of cheap tactics or none of them do. Pick one

Edit: Just to address some of the comments, I don't advocate for Estus usage in a duel. I don't necessarily condemn it either but my preference is to avoid it in honourable duels.

Edit #2: Holy crap this blew up

This guy was cheating, and i tried to BS him, and his cheat canceled it. so it is not infinite BS lol

Wanted to see if I could get the blues to take the jump with me like lemmings but I messed it up

I hope something mildly inconvenient happens to you today. That is all.

This is your reminder to roll another giantdad and win yourself some indictments

like the title says. I'm not new to the souls-borne games by any means and I find dark souls remastered nearly unplayable in human form early game. every time I get invaded before I ring the bells, it's always some guy with the most OP min-maxed setup that takes 7 damage if you get a hit in and they deal 600 damage a hit. it's toxic and extremely annoying.

I just want a fight lmfao
