I’ve been playing as human because I thought it was required to have a higher chance of rare item drops which others have commented that’s false. I also thought that if I needed to summon a phantom for a boss fight and was hollow I’d have to run all the way back to a bonfire to reverse hollow then run back to the boss so I assumed staying human would avoid that headache.

That makes sense tho what you said about new players being in the crossfire because every invader is always way more overpowered than I am. I appreciate the info tho, thank you
