Blue Phantom Blues

Man oh man...

The co-op is fun when it happens, but a lot of the time you put out your blue sign hoping to be summoned and you wait....and wait....and wait.....

I wanted another go at the Tower Knight Boss but absolutely no one summoned me for the full run no matter where I put my sign.

Oh, a couple times I had people summon me only to send me immediately back to the Nexus. What's up with that?!?

not sure actually lol.. Though yeah it does suck putting your blue soul sign down.. Don't give up on it, but don't be too stubborn with it either. When i'm looking for co-op as a blue phantom i usually just leave a soul sign in a spot that is unmissable, and continue along the stage, exploring or something. If no-one summons you then, no-one's interested/available. You could always just try invading. =P (alot faster)

Yeah, there are peak times and "down times" in the game...from what I've experienced (mostly my theory). But yes, there are times when almost no one would summon you, no matter which world (except Shrine)

Retsu's idea is good though, if you get tired of waiting as a blue phantom. Get that Black stone and invade them:devil:

what SL are you... people tend to get Tower Knight out of the way quickly so if your higher lvl thats prob why you're waiting so long

The problem centers around a few main facts.

1. There aren't enough new players that need help playing the maps.
2. Your multiplayer session count is low.
3. New players don't understand the summoning system.

The truth is this game is loosing ground due to other titles that have come out. It's true. I like the game. It's fun. But, I have to be honest. The majority of people playing at lower levels are gamers that have completed the game and started a new character (not newcomers). These people don't need help. They know everything they need to know about the game. Hence, you don't get summoned as fast as you would had you purchased this game when it was new.

You should try 1-4, as people usually like to get help with that run. Occasionally, people will want help with Penetrator as well (1-3). Another hotspot is Flamelurker (hah, get it! hotspot!! because he's flamey.. and.. hot.. sorry).

I've gotten summoned a few times for tower knight. Do you put the sign in front of the boss fog, or at the beginning of the level? I sometimes get summoned if I put the sign in the second tower. Either way, you'll probably have to wait.

Did you come back in body form, or did they just white stone you out? Some people may just revive you in order to get the 'phantoms saved' thing.
