Your first clue that your character may be afflicted with something nasty, is if you see the message about “Invalid Game Data” when you load up the game. To my knowledge, these are rarely reversed, and they’ll apply to any new Dark Souls 3 characters you make on the same Steam account.
Softbanning is less pleasant than it sounds, because it pretty much restricts you to playing with other soft-banned players. Doesn’t sound too bad, except that this many souls gained at once will set off FROM’s cheating alarms and possibly result in you being softbanned. An example of this is a weapon that, whenever it hits someone, will give them loads of souls. Unfortunately, there are some players who have discovered (as they did with Dark Souls 2, and maybe the first one as well) how to manipulate the game’s code to ‘buff’ their weapons with unhelpful effects. Normally you just run into a guy who’s given himself infinite health via a CheatEngine or some other means, and you die.
Invasions by people who are cheating in Dark Souls 3 are pretty inevitable. A lot of this will be echoing a compiled Reddit post, but it helps to spread this stuff around when it’s good information.
There’s been a spate of unpleasant Dark Souls 3 invasions happening of late on PC, so here’s a short piece with what to look out for and what you can do to protect your characters.
