I've had a few pretty good runs myself. This one time in Anor Londo I was just chilling out and about to fight Ornstein & Smough when this dude invaded me. I was like, "Alright bro, let's do this."
And I ran up to where the archer once was and confronted him on the staircase, and bowed but he pretty much just charged at me. After rolling back he just stood there with his shield raised and when I moved forward he went back and vice-versa. After thirty seconds or so of just standing around, I was like, "Eff this." And two-handed my Fire Manserpant Greatsword and broke through his defense easily. Bowed afterwards cuz that's how I roll.
I usually refrained from using enemies to my advantage since I usually felt bad 'bout it, but I realized that they are really effing useful and this is Dark Souls so whatever. Especially in Anor Londo. Those giant sentinels are really helpful, haha. One time I invaded trying to earn some ears as a Darkmoon Blade and ran up to them, managing to whittle down his health until he'd just run away and estus up while I consumed some more humanity. It finally just came down to busting each other up on the stairs. I escaped with a fraction of health left, definitely one of my more intense matches.
Another time this fella got trapped by the sentinels when I lured him in and they just slaughtered him and I just sat back and watched. :P

Anyway, the dlc and PC port sounds cool and inevitable, but I really hope they give dlc back to the console versions too. I'd feel a bit miffed if they didn't and I had to buy the PC version just to get new stuff.
Also, Tom Guycott I have the art book and there are quite a few enemies that didn't make it in including a female gargoyle, a Fat Official riding a boar-like monster, a gruesome executioner-like being, an archer of sorts and a chimera.
