Dark souls the great hollow
If you like to PVP you probably prefer lower levels. In my experience there are a few factors that affect people’s tendencies to push higher levels or seek lower levels: Most of the people who brag about their low levels are just griefers… that’s their bag and it’s ok, the game obviously sought to give them a role.
As I became more skilled, I tended to forgo the farming because it seemed unnecessary. My first few games I spent a lot of time grinding levels in the gardens, but I didn’t really summon anything other than NPC’s for bosses so it didn’t really affect me. I’ve beaten Dark Souls probably a dozen times or so and my levels varied widely on each runthrough (tending downward, of course). J-Rock, the list is intended for people who are not getting many extra summoner levels through farming in their game, and is intended for people who are looking for, or placing, summon signs for coop play. I’ve raised the recommended level for Darkroot Garden to lvl 35+. It makes sense to get there early if thats your agenda. I may also have been thinking that Darkroot Garden is one of the easiest ways to farm a bunch of souls quickly, by fighting the humans of the forest covenant (or leading them off the cliff) in the area past the locked door that requires the Crest of Artorias. I may have been thinking only of the Moonlight Butterfly, but technically that boss seems to be classified as located in the Darkroot Basin. I’m not sure what my thought process for that was. I agree that it was too low before at its previous 20+. Lots of people will have different experiences and different order of doing things, but I believe most people are getting near end game at that level. (Due to PvP and titanite chunk farming, the kiln usually has higher than normal summoning activity)ħ0-75 for Sif / Darkroot Garden is very very high.
