Is it considered hacking if you make a save and modify it just for a simple and fair PvP build? Like, let's say you just got to the forest and you wanted to fight the covenant there, but you don't have anything good and you were, say, level 40. Now, if you modified your save to have, say, a katana and the grasscrest shield, but only had your armor replaced with it's complete upgraded person and gave yourself a stat boost to equate level 100, is that still fair or is it being overpowered? And note that this does not include giving yourself souls, infite health or stamina, and any magic you use is just healing and WoTG.
