Anyone have any tips ? I know I'll probably need help for the Four Kings, but should I go and get the lordvessel for easier return to Kathe ?
I already did it with Pyromancy, which is the easy way to do Low Level Four Kings I assume, but I want to try something less 'Cheesy' for the invasion part.
So a quick Google search led me to this: https://youtu.be/f9sQtQAUqt0?si=PcBYX8dAP_Hr5bCt
It's basically the traditional tanking method with Havel armor and a +0 Gravelord Greatsword (+5 regular, the highest I'd go on a low level build). If you go this route, I would start Warrior and just level up Str to 16 to 2 hand the Gravelord Greatsword. Then later you could level up Dex to 16 to wield the Darksword and go full Darkwraith cosplay. That puts you at SL10 which is low enough to invade in the burg and parish.
The only way i've ever been able to pull it of below SL20 is with kiting and soul arrow spam.
I've done it with Pyromancy and attunement rings, it's fairly easy.
Which pyromancies? I went the soul arrow route because you get so many casts. I'd be worried I'd run out of pyros. Plus pyros are kinda slow.
