Here's a Dark Souls one which happened today.
I'm messing around with a challenge build which is as follows:
Essentially this build means I will most likely die if I get hit a single time. With no shield it means that I have to parry rather than block [which is significantly harder to time, as you can only do it at the
exact moment the enemy's attack is going to hit you.]
So there I was, running around, punching monsters to death left right and center when I head the ominous noise signalling that I have been invaded. Somewhere, there is a fully geared out player running around my world with the sole purpose of carefully removing my limbs from my body.
After some cautious scouting, we both manage to spot each other at roughly the same time. The opponent is decked out in various pieces of heavy armour, and wielding one of the biggest weapons in the game, complete with insane damage output that would certainly reduce me to little more than a dusty stain on the ground if he so much as tickled me with it.
The invader noticing that I was completely unarmoured started sprinting towards me.We circled for a few seconds and he swung his gigantic hammer-of-certain-death at me. What did I do?
I parried it.
Yup, with nothing but my bare arm, I parried a gigantic hammer and riposted by planting my scrawny little fist in the center of his face, instant killing him.
I don't know who was more shocked, me or the invader but after a minute I recieved a PM from him saying simply '
Wow.'
F'ing Dark Souls, man.

I used one of my NG+ characters to take these screenshots as it has all the right gear.
