Alright /v/, which covenant do you belong to?
Sunbro for life.
I am torn between Darkmoon and Rosaria because both have top tier waifus.
>>334553767
I wish they would've done more co-op covenants but in a better way than they were in DaS 1.
>>334553767
i've been a sunbro awhile but i don't really give a shit about the covenant rewards so I switched to Watchdogs of Farron.
I only got summoned for it once. There were already three other watchdogs there and i moved about an inch before they successfully killed the guy and it was over.
Something is either glitched with that covenant or its just got a really small relevant level range that I'm beyond now.
Sunbros, I love jolly co-op
>tfw Blades of the Darkmoon and Blue Sentinels are the same fucking Covenant
>It doesn't even make it so your CREOs or Red Eye Orb targets sinners
What the fuck is this nonsense I want to be the fucking fun police not a baby sitter.
All the covvy rewards are shite but I stick to rosaria since I red eye invade all day. I'm shocked people are bitching about the pvp, I'm having the time of my life being the red gatekeeper to the irythill entrance.
>>334554735
>or its just got a really small relevant level range that I'm beyond now.
That would be it
I kept getting summon when I first found the covenant, around level 20-30 or something, which was nonstop summoning
Though it that was on release, now it's just not as active in general
![ghZpxIE[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/n16tfE7.jpg "ghZpxIE[1].jpg")
Dorkmoon, but it's completely impossible to get summoned
>Blue Sentinels and Darkmoon are literally the same covenant copy and pasted
>Rosaria does absolutely nothing
>Aldrich Faithful has no gimmick, just a fat dead guy in a ditch
>Watchdogs stop being relevant past level 30
>No dragon covenant
>One covenant missing
Why does Hackazaki always fuck up covenants? Dark Souls 2 blows this shit out of the water.
>>334554735
I'm sitting at level 40, and I get summoned to fight trespassers every few minutes. Only got invaded once when I went through, which I thought was weird, because I was getting invaded constantly in the Aldrich area my first play through.
Maybe watchdog invasions are less frequent since it's an early game area?
these covenants are shit, I just play mound makers because I get to be purple
>>334556535
>Rosaria does absolutely nothing
Except letting you respec and change your character's appearance
>>334556868
Equip the covenant, what does it do?
>>334557102
You get a forked pale tongue every time you kill a phantom.
>>334557102
>>334557250
A blue phantom, sorry
>>334557250
Aka fucking nothing
>>334557367
By that metric, sunbros don't do anything either
>>334557445
Sun Warriors alters white soapstone signs, red orb invasions and red soapstone signs when equipped.
>>334557652
So changing phantom color is more significant than providing you with extra respec items now?
>>334557745
>phantom color
Are you dumb? Sun Warriors that use red eye orb get prioritized for worlds that already have an invader and red soapstone signs made by a Sun Warrior invade the world instead of helping (the summon sign looks very similar to a friendly summon)
None of the above.
I've been bluefag since the start and haven't been summoned once
What the fuck
They should just make it so Darkmoons always get summoned to fight invaders, even if a host isn't in way of blue. Or let me invade sinners. This is fucking ridiculous.
>>334557993
There's not enough reds to go around. FROM fucked up by making it hell for invaders so reds just give up and join Aldrich or some shit.
>tfw sunbro 4 life
>>334556186
ETHAN BRADBERRY
>>334558068
>>334558060
There are fucktons of invaders, people just aren't keeping the way of blue patch on. Just like in Dark Souls 2.
>>334558226
I have no idea who the fuck that guy even is, and how he got into my friends list. He's got a VAC ban too, so I didn't bother taking another screenshot.
>>334558229
I've been invaded without another blueman showing up a lot. This is fucking gay.
>join darkmoonfags
>never get summoned
>join aldritch
>every fucking host has fun police with them
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
What do Watchdogs of Farron even do?
>>334558508
It's time to become a grape, anon. Give in to the randum xD.
I think Darkmoons are fucked. I've killed at least 40 hosts as a red, but when I checked at the velka statue, it said I didn't have any sin. Anyone have any idea how long it takes to rack up sin?
Which ones are the Dickwraiths?
Where is Rosaria, guys?
>>334558653
You only get sin for killing NPCs.
>>334558603
Where should I invade at around SL80 as a grape? Anor Londo just keeps putting me in fight clubs.
>>334558746
Lothric and Grand Archives are ripe for invasions.
Blue Sentinels, want that fucking Darkmoon ring. Getting summoned is a rare occurrence and I suck at PvP regardless, so getting medals is annoying. Wish I could just farm them by helping people with bosses. I know about the Silver Knight trick but not up to Anal London yet.
>Sentinels / Darkmoon STILL DOESN'T FUCKING WORK
WHY.
HAS IT EVER WORKED? I'VE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO GET FUCKING SUMMONED IN ANY OF THE DARK SOULS GAMES.
FFFFFFF WHY IS THE MOST INTERESTING COVENANT STILL FUCKING BROKEN REEEEEE
Guess I'll just be a swampfag or aldrich faithful or something...
>>334554064
Rosaria has better foot game and loves being wrapped around by slugmen.
>>334558653
There is no Sin. From created a Sin system for the game, but neglected to make any actions actually GRANT Sin. The only use for the Velka statue is making NPC's de-aggro.
>>334558905
It's because retards aren't putting on the Way of Blue covenant patch.
What's your favorite place to invade, anons?
>>334558718
So darkmoons can only invade npc killers? Or is there some hidden number for killing players?
>>334558874
>I know about the Silver Knight trick
Explain.
>>334558996
Then they should fucking make it so you don't have to wear it. When you get invaded just pop up a dialog box that says "CALL DA POPO Y/N?"
fuck you from, im just going to fuck shit up as a grape since you fucked the real pvp covenants up
>>334559082
Darkmoons are exactly the same as Blue Sentinels, except they get lower priority.
Whoever designed it was fucking retarded.
>>334559082
It's an exact copy of Blue Sentinels. They share reward items, covenant rank and everything.
>>334559082
No, Darkmoons can't invade period. They can be summoned the same as Blue Sentinels, except Blues get higher priority on the summon. Plus Blues get the same covenant rewards anyway.
So in other words, Darkmoons is a defunct covenant that is only useful for RP.
>>334559162
Wow, that's fucked. Glad I went Rosaria then.
>>334559082
Dorkmoons and Centennials are supposed to be summoned automatically when some other punk ass in way of blue gets invaded.
DS1 is the only one where blues invaded sinners on their own afaik
Mound-Maker, for freedom of choice and legitimate fun. Playing the wildcard has never been better.
>>334559108
you can farm the blue sentinel/dorkmoon items by killing silver knights
>>334558996
Right, because they all have the sentinel patch on. They shouldn't have made blue sentinels literally unmissable. Now everyone is trying to blue invade and nobody gets rewarded for way of blue and most invaders suck so you don't even need help anyhow so why ever have on way of blue. Most people want pvp so they're going to be anything else and might even be using dried fingers.
>>334555034
There's no blue stone or something that connects you to a sinner's world?
>>334559031
irithyll boreal town is a ton of fun at my range (lv 50) right now. Pussy hosts with an entourage aren't an issue because the road is paved with decent mobs to fuck with them. The layout is great, the level looks amazing, and there's always goofy shit going on.
>>334559508
Nope. Darkmoon is literally a wasted slot.
Even DS2 did covenants better.
>>334553767
What covenant lets me be narcissistic and have a wicked sense of humor?
>>334559508
There's no Sin to begin with.
>>334559615
Grape
>>334559615
Grapelords
How do you become a purple god?
>>334559689
Walk up behind the brute with the empty cage on his back in Undead Settlement.
If you've killed the Greatwood already then you're pretty much fucked unless you do some questline with Serris.
>all the bluebros getting cucked by no WoBabbies being around
Alright you coppers, rev up those blue sentinel/darkmoon banners because i'm going for a full way of blue playthrough, just for all you who are looking to do something.
Man after SL40 Watchdogs stop being relevant.
Already maxed out Sunbros so gonna try Moundmaker for a bit.
>>334559895
You hardly get invaded anyway because there is no reason to.
Invasions need to give better rewards, blues need to be 1 faction, not 3 and the frequency of invasions has to be increased for blues to actually be useful.
>>334555034
So fucking stupid on Froms part. Fair enough not realizing how it would work in Dark Souls 2.
Repeating the same fucking mistake in Dark Souls 3 is just incompetent. GIVE US SINNERS GOD DAMN.
>>334559871
>Killed greatwood
Shit.
There's always NG+ I guess.
>>334559948
Moundmaker invasions have an even higher priority on ganksquads than normal invasions. Have fun with your 4v1's.
>>334559871
Her reverse summon sign always showed up in front of Pit of Hollows for me after killing Aldrich, even when I never talked to her and joined Rosaria's Fingers.
>>334560025
Theres another chance to get it. You have to do some contrived bullshit with Sirris of the sunless realms that makes no sense is impossible to find without a guide.
Seriously just look up Sirris's questline. It is impossible to find yourself.

>>334553767
purpdrank gang 4 lyfe my nigga
seriously though Dark Souls needed a wild card covenant bad and we finally have it, it's so much fun
>>334559871
>tfw I just got to settlement
Tell me what to do exactly before I fuck soemthing up
>>334560326
Just don't kill Curse Rotten Greatwood, it's an optional boss anyway.
IS WoG GOOD IN THIS GAME?
>>334560468
No, Miracles on the whole are complete garbage.
>>334560326
When you see the big open area with a shit ton of enemies with a fat lady, take the bridge across and keep going until you see a bunch of dart-throwing midgets on top of houses.
Then look around the area past that for a patrolling big guy with a cage on his back and use it behind him.
>>334553767
sunbros seems like the most in need considering all the police covenants
whats the max amount of reds invading?
do grapes invade and take up a red slot?
>>334560545
Grapes count as invaders, but they win if they personally kill 1 or 2 phantoms (red, blue, white, doesn't matter) OR the host.
>>334560078
I want to be a helpful grape though. Have people determined a gesture for Grapes yet to say you're friendly?
>>334553767
Do Aldrich and Farron puppies even work? I've never had them activate while I'm in range. I get impatient and switch to invade manually and find something instantly.
>>334560669
Yeah, its the 'fuck off and die you purple fruit' one
Right next to the 'find a cliff and introduce your face to the edge of it'
>>334560753
They're level specific, if you're too high or too low it won't really work.
>>334560669
Try shoving your face into the nearest invader, that will probably convince em.
>>334560789
Salty anon. Where did they grape you?
>>334560616
oh and what do the area specific covenants count as?
>>334560753
It's about level. I rushed to the Wolf at 30 and had invasions for a solid hour straight.
20 hours in, not a single summon as a blue sentinel.
The covenants in this game are the worst of the three DS games. Completely unimaginative, and frustrating to boot.
>>334560962
They count too. Grapes can kill any phantom and it'll work.
DARKMOON BOYZ
>>334561046
Darkmoon? More like DEADmoon! AMIRITE
>>334560993
Just play a real covenant and invade. Why would you wanna help retarded players preserve their small militias?
>>334561224
I'll fucking kill you.
Never talk to me or the Way of Blue ever again.
>>334561250
Because I want the rewards.
>Sunlight Blade looks even worse than it did in DaS2
>It does less damage than regular Resins
From fucked up everything I gave the smallest shit about in this game.
>>334561014
I'm more asking about how many invaders we can have.
>Every host has phantoms
>Every host uses a straight sword
Which covenant gets multiple invaders at once most often because I'm tired of this shit.
Which one do I join to farm my embers?
Mound Makers for me since I like to help hosts without popping down white signs. Also, is there a point I should stop leveling if I want decent pvp and soul summoning in NG+? I'm at the end of the Grand Archives now and I'm SL 102.
Used to be sunbro, but hosts aren't the underdogs anymore, invaders are.
>>334553767
fuck the catacombs
>>334562057
Just coop.
I seem to have missed the middle row entirely, which weirds me out because I'm usually good at this sort of thing.
2nd playthrough here (new character, to try a different build).
Should I be a swampdog / oldrich faithful or just grape it up?
They all seem really fun, but they all require me to stop at different levels (except mound pounders i guess) and I dont know which to pick.
