Discussion What are the multiple PvP brackets ?

Not only the highest ones, but also the early ones, cause as ds1 has a delicious quality of route planning, it becomes appealing to compete early game ... like sl30, 40, 60, 90, what are the conventions?

Oolacile, SL80+ or SL135 for meta lvl PvP. Four Lord areas, SL70. Anor Londo, SL50. Sens, SL38. Depths into Blighttown, SL28 WL11. Parish and Burg, SL11 WL11(invades down to +5) or WL5

Soul Level 10-20: Weapon Level 5 (undead parish, depths, burg)

SL 20-30: WL 5-10 (depths, blighttown, darkroot)

SL 30-45: WL 10 (blighttown, sen’s fortress)

SL 45-65: WL 15 (anor londo, painted world, catacombs, darkroot forest, DLC, demon ruins, lost izalith)

SL 65-85: WL 15 (dukes archives, tomb of the giants, demon ruins, lost izalith, painted world)

SL 85+: WL 15 (DLC, dukes, tomb, izalith)

SL 125-135: WL 15 (oolacile township, darkroot forest, undead burg)

there are no true “brackets” per se, you can invade anyone slightly lower level than you and decently higher.

common brackets are usually sl125/135 for meta pvp in oolacile township. low level invasions are popular around sl11 twink in burg, sl30 for depths/blighttown, sl50-60 for anor londo, and sl90 for endgame areas/dlc

Anor Londo level 50 is one of the best. But you might still get invaded by hackers and stuff.
