If you're going to invade you should be able to easily identify who your enemies are and if you have any additional support (try reading the situation as you're approaching it to determine who is who even if the obvious colors are absent). If you do have additional support in the form of a co-invader realize that, UNLIKE hosts and summons, invaders can hit each other (unless you're both Aldrich Faithfuls or Watchdogs of Farron). Co-invaders who insist on not relenting are generally not effective, are among the first to die, directly cause a lot of friendly damage, and indirectly cause other invaders to get caught in gank blenders.

If your ally is doing well just try to cover their backs by; focusing on a separate enemy, flanking exits so the host/summon has less space to retreat to, and stepping in when your ally needs to heal or restore stamina. Should your ally get a crit, DO NOT crowd the wake up as your ally is likely preparing to have it covered while they're still in the crit animation. If you're doing a chase down, especially while using larger weapons, at least try to keep your ally's location in mind when you're doing running attacks and consecutive swings.

You might not end up being the one to get the killing blow but if you're constantly just rushing in without any respect to your co-invader then you're just helping the host more than you realize.
