its not the string

in the DLC there is the string-seller's bell bearing,hope this can help u

farming for greases is a hastle especially when some really want you to go out of your way for low drop chances for some materials

During our first duel, when u were re-using buff , I even stood behind u and waited for u to finish before continuing. Unfortunately u still ignored to bow during the second duel, which is why I left my previous comment.
But like u said, there are indeed many people who rush and don't give others time to use their buffs to enjoy the duel with a full build. To deal with this situation, maybe u use drawstring grease instead of regular grease to have more time to respond to people who respect the duel.

seriously do people not know it dont take much to be kind now adays?

??? bro im fine, i think you need help if you think me making a mock build and just having fun enjoying my day is "annoying". if i wanted to sweat in a video game id make an optimal build yeah? and im not ignoring a bow, if i didnt bow back while i was buffing, too many people on hear immediately rush people without letting a person bow or buff
