    The forest is full of dupers, I'd advise against that covenant. Blade of the Darkmoon and Gravelord don't really work due to how the online is set up and Path of the Dragon, as you said, is far too conditional.

    So...uhh none? The online is kinda broken right now tbqh

    I heard the covenant in the forest was really active but is no longer. I ventured all the way to get in the dragon covenant and have just found out that the dragon eye stone is worthless because you have to wait for someone with a dragon scale to come by and activate your mark. So, Blade of the Darkmoon? I want to get my invade on.

    Darkwraith it sounds like for you.  Its about as straight forward as it gets.  Use the red orb, invade a dude, and kill him.

    Wait, does being summoned for the forest depend on the level of the invader?  Or can you get summoned against someone either too strong, or weak for you?

    I joined Darkmoon with my sorcerer and regretted it. It took so many tries to finally invade a world, constant failing.. seemed like one PvP fight every half an hour, I just couldn't stand it. My warrior is in Darkwrath however and with the Red Eye Orb I've been invading worlds successfully almost every try. I guess it may depend on the area that you're at and how active it is, but so far it seems much better. The cracked red eye orbs still suck though lol, I helped 10 people with bosses and sacrificed the humanity to the covenant so I didn't have to keep buying those expensive orbs only to fail.

    What people are doing is duping souls, then buying spells/pryomancys and leveling up the pryo catalyst. They're also duping humanity (makes chaos weapons really powerful) and upgrade stones to make stupid armor and weapons. Low leveling griefing is a pretty big problem atm.

    I honestly think Forest is the best right now if you want consistent PvP. I've had the stones fail over and over again and if you join Darkmoon you will almost ALWAYS be up against someone better than you do to how you are only hunting guilty players who are both prepared for PvP and know what they are doing.

    The only thing I don't like about Darkwrath is that the hosts know when you've invaded.

    Darkmoon invaders are notified as well. The only time the other person isn't notified is when you are summoned via the ring, and someone has to plunge Anor Londo into darkness for that to happen.
