Default Ultimate Hack/glitch Wtf O.o

So I drop my soul sign in Anor Lando to help someone and after killing the two black knights we get invaded... ok no biggey. I see the person, looks like they using a crystal weapon magic enchant. As the person gets near they cast Tranquil Walk of Peace... but they aren't in fight range of us. Once they cast the Tranquil Walk of Peace, and theirs had an AMAZING range to it. It went on me, and immediately I started taking damage as if I was being attacked... but nothing was attacking me. This kept going on until I died, no break.
The summoner came up behind my dying body probably wondering how the fuck I died... this brought him in range of the Tranquil. Once it went on him, same thing. His hp just dropped with no breaks as if there was consistent attacks going on him.

I figured this was some fluke of impossible lag or something. However, I dropped my sign again and got summoned by someone. This time it was 3 of us. We killed the two black knights, and once again... invaded. I look and it's the same person. Same weapon. This time the person comes closer. Casts the Tranquil Walk of Peace. And BAM again, consistent damage being done and all he is doing is flipping around with the Tranquil Walk on to avoid getting hit by anyone as we all just die from this bullshit with no way of stopping it or getting out.

The only way someone can find it fun to kill people like that is if they are an ultimate douchebag. Seriously... blew my mind. Looks like I wont be helping anyone in Anor Lando until the guy is done getting his kicks off. lol
My only guess is it's another magic enchant glitch like the Great Magic Shield invincibility. He was using a weapon magic enchant so that shit must be causing that. O.o

How fast were you taking damage? I'd never heard of that happening before, but it really does sound like amazingly bad lag.

It was consistent no break, so it wasn't someone swinging a weapon. It happened to ALL OF US within the Tranquil Walk of Peace. Once the Tranquil went on is when we started taking damage, it was no lag. As it happened in 2 different hosts world and I saw the guy just backflipping around us as if he knew what he was doing and was just waiting for us to die from it.
And the hosts world weren't laggy at all, the black knights weren't random or teleporting around like they do in laggy worlds.

I'd say it was probly 2-3 ticks of damage per second. Consistent damage as well, not random not fluctuating.
It killed me before my Stamina even broke from blocking it. So I'm sure it was some glitch using the a magic weapon enchant. If this only happened once I would have passed it off, but to happen twice in a row... no way. And can it really be surprising anyway with all the glitches there are already in this game.

Im pretty sure that once this get figured out and word goes around of this glitch that Bonecrusher will say its a fair thing and not overpowered at all because everyone can do it...

Now this does sound wierd, are you sure he didnt use some other spell like a Poison Cloud or something that deals damage over time after using TWP ?

No man, he cast Tranquil Walk and exactly the moment he finished and it went on us the damage came in. There was no poison, no toxin. He was just flippin around waitin for us to die.

And yea lol, I'm sure he will. xD

Another thing is... why would he waste time enchanting his weapon if he was never going to use it but just kill us with Poison? It obviously shows there is a glitch related to that. I cant imagine twice in a row using the same thing, he knows he is going to use that to kill. Why waste time even enchanting the weapon unless he needed that to pull off the glitch.
Just like the glitched Strong Magic Shield.
And also... who even uses Magic Weapon anymore when you can make magic and elemental weapons. So again, right there. xD

Tried youtubing it? Maybe it has been figured out already. Your points for the Magic Weapon beeing realted make sense but maybe he just whanted to look cool with a shining weapon while walking around seeing you guys die and the magic actualy has nothing to do with the actual bug/glitch/whatever.

Just did some googling and someone else posted the exact same thing on the Dark Souls site.
Dark Souls Forum • View topic - Unlimited damage glitches?

Casting TWOP and then taking damage. And it's all from invasions from the same guy many people with the problem. Might possibly be the same guy who invaded me. So it's someone who figured out a glitch to do this and running around killing many people.

I actually just found a post of the glitch and it does have to do with Magic Weapon and spell swapping. Turning the spell into a walking deathtrap which is exactly what it was. TWOP turned into a walking deathtrap.

I realy dont want to know how to do this and Id like nobody else to either. I know you Cogni you wouldnt glitch to win in PvP, sadly that isnt true for everybody else. And I bet this work on PVE as well and ppl will start downing bosses with this crap.

Just patch the game From, its an awesome game but there are too many glitches to exploit, if only there werent anyone willing to exploit these glitches...

With the glitches and imbalance it's pretty obvious this game wasn't tested enough. It just seems like they threw in whatever they thought would be cool without actually testing or thinking about the kind of affects it would have as a whole.
I just gave the basics of the glitch so you know what to look out for... see someone comin at you with that magic weapon. I'd say just bail. Not worth having to track back for your souls and humanity over that impossible glitch. There is literally nothing you can do. Cant run, and cant hide.
