I never even approach ladders when Invaded lol

I was going to, but have never actually performed it AFTER falling off a ladder, so wasn't sure if you could.
I normally ring swap 24/7, even off of ledges where I'd take a TINY bit of fall damage, I mean sometimes out of habit I even do it on the tiny ledge at the beginning of pontiff (where you don't even take fall damage)

And I'm pretty sure since tears didn't work, it wouldn't of mattered anyways, as they're supposed to save you from fall damage you can survive (I think?)

no ring swap? 5/10

tears of denial wont work on fall damage?

Actual ladder gameplay

Ladder warfare with mutually assured destruction.
