The Most Honorable 1v1 Duel ⁽ᵗʰᶦˢ ᶦˢ ⁿᵒᵗ⁾ | Elden Ring
No matter how well FromSoftware makes the arena/colosseum content, there will always be hosts looking for "honor" duels at a point of safety. Not because they can't find activity in the arena, it would be active at any level if even just a few of them used it, or because they dislike the map layouts. They camp archestones, bonfires, lanterns, and graces because in each game there are natural advantages to being the host. Most commonly hosts get double the flasks, some extra health, and the ability to summon.
In Elden Ring the Rune Arcs are notably powerful and only the host can use them, aside from Mohg's which has too high of a hp % cost for its niche use. The strongest are Morgott's Great Rune giving +25% hp (not too dissimilar to DS3's embered health), Godrick's Great Rune giving +5 to each stat (a total of +40), and Radahn's Great Rune giving +15% to hp/fp/stamina. Godrick's in particular is unbalanced until weapon upgrade scaling is high because it provides natural defenses through the 40 soft levels. The defenses are enough to make it on par to 2-3 pieces of Bull-Goats armor but without any of the weight, essentially making the host an over leveled and poorly downscaled tank.
Although my build here is meant to annoy such hosts with stealth until they play the level or keep the Taunter's Tongue active until I get a co-invader, I felt this host would be more annoyed by having their Winged Cracked Tear Full-Goat with PSGS setup trivialized and their general playstyle mirrored. #GoToTheColosseum

This stealth build was inspired by watching Peeve's assassin build at RL 200. Seeing how frequently he'd get First Step campers at high level and seeing other streamers getting the same type of campers at low levels had me thinking a spinoff build could be very fun to try.
