Dark Souls PvP is a complete joke, by design. It's more about memorising weapons (and having the right counter) than any actual skill. It's PvP tacked onto a PvE game. If you want good PvP action, play a real PvP game, that doesn't require you to go around with a shopping list (or spend ages grinding PvE monsters) just to get on equal footing.

Good PvP games let you get into the action straight away, and reward your actual skill, not the contents of your inventory.
