Been practicing hard, but I still can't wrap my head around PvP.

Spoiler46 Souvenirs of Reprisal in my current inventory. Am I getting better? I seriously don't know. I got most of these in the Depths and the Catacombs. Sometimes the fight lasts only seconds - both in my advantage as disadvantage. Sometimes I get my ass handed to me by a naked dual rapier-wielding character. And very rarely I manage to beat the full Havel Zweihander wielding tank. But aside from some very embarrassing defeats I have been getting positive ratio's in some area's.

And then I decide to test my skills in the Darkroot Forest or the Kiln. I'm nothing out there. Backstabs in my advantage only seem to happen accidentally or when we're fighting 2 on 1. I have never parried successfully. Sometimes I get a kill, but it rarely goes smoothly. And then I seriously wonder what kind of people play Dark Souls to the extend where they can beat a fully equipped Giant set wearing knight while having no poise and a rapier only? Or even three of them at once? I look at video's on youtube and see people winning at incredible odds, landing parry's and backstabs like it's nothing. If anyone knows their secret, please do tell. And get your mind blown by watching this video (though I must warn for crazy Japanese music): Dark Souls Forest Clean-Up 2/


Anyway, anyone up for an EoFF duel? I'm on PS3, level range about 80.
