Notes from author
This build should be used primarily for non-aggressive invasion in the Depths or in the Catacombs.
With 16 str/dex you can use a solid variety of weapons, so switch your weapons between and during invasions to keep things interesting.
Essential Strategy:
- Walk around slowly and keep the lantern up at all costs. (You can run as long as the host doesn't see you)
- If you spot the host, use the wave gesture and/or drop 'Hello' carvings and prism stones.
- Walk slowly up to the host and then walk right past him/her into some other part of the level
- Use the Chaos Rapier + Dark Hand + Hornet Ring + Parry surprise combo, but don't attack otherwise unless the host just wants to destroy you.
- In the Catacombs you can open the Vamos shortcut as an invader or you can slowly walk in the titanite demon hallway and lay down in the coffin for extra spookyness.
- If the host is obviously a noob, drop some nice gifts like black knight weapons or titanite.
- The armor setup is just for the looks. Try to imitate a lost spirit/wandering soul.
Other Strategies (if you get bored):
- Switch to the complete Dark Set + Chaos Dark Sword + 2x Dark Hand + Asc. Pyromancy Flame and hunt down those pathetic undeads like a true Darkwraith.
- Use toxic cloud + poison cloud + dung pies/poison throwing knives + loyd's talismans on newbs in the Depths
- Use Havel's set + Titanite Catch Pole + Iron Flesh and cosplay a titanite demon
- Equip the legendary Giantdad's stuff to scare your hosts and then fatroll like a pro.
