Fair warning, front and center, there WILL be spoilers for major portions of Dark Souls due to the identity of some of the covenant leaders and the methods used to join them. This is a list of all nine covenants, what their focus is, who the leader is, how to join them, how to progress in them, penalties for betrayal and the rewards they offer. Without any clear leader, there are two ways to become a member.
The first, and earliest, option is to talk to Petrus in Firelink Shrine. After a while he will offer to induct you in and give you access to his wares. The second instance the player can join is through Rhea after she has been saved in the Tomb of the Giants. After this, she can be found praying in the Undead Parish and will allow entry into the Way of White as well as buying Miracles through her. Instead, the Way of White makes it far more likely that members will find their way into co-op situations instead of being invaded.
This is exceptionally useful for new players in the early areas. As there are no tangible rewards in this covenant, there are no penalties if you betray it. Up next is the gloriously incandescent Warriors of Sunlight. The members of this covenant follow the ousted firstborn of Lord Gwyn. They make use of offensive lightning-based Miracles. This requirement can be reduced by five for each boss defeated as a co-op phantom.
Anytime the player is in a group that successfully takes down a boss with at least one surviving member being a Warrior of Sunlight, they will earn one Sunlight Medal.
These can be offered at the Altar of Sunlight to rise through the ranks of the covenant. Just like the other two co-op covenants, the Warriors of Sunlight benefit from increased matchmaking potential.
Finally, the two betrayal penalties are the loss of half of all previous Sunlight Medal offerings and the inability to use Sunlight Spear. The final co-op focused covenant is based around protecting the Princess of Sunlight, Gwynevere. While the players who join will not actually be guarding Gwynevere, they do speak with the Princess of Sunlight in Anor Londo after defeating Dragonslayer Ornstein and Executioner Smough. As a co-op covenant, members benefit from a higher chance of finding co-op partners.
There are no higher ranks to this covenant, although new members are given a Miracle-based ring. Members also have the ability to use two unique Miracles that work on the caster and the people around them. This co-op covenant is found later and is usually overlooked. To join the ranks of these Humanity-hungry phantoms, the player will have to meet with Darkstalker Kaathe in one of two ways.
The first option is simply playing the game normally until you have the Lordvessel, going after the Four Kings before placing the Lordvessel and finally talking to Kaathe. The second and arguably much trickier way can be done at the very start of the game.
If you can pull this off, you can become a Darkwraith before ringing either Bell of Awakening. This Humanity or any Humanity can be used to raise your rank within the covenant. The exception to this is the Chaos Servant covenant, in which it is possible to donate up to 60, humanity.
However, this gives no special bonuses to your character and will only affect your standing in the Chaos Roster. It is possible to leave or abandon a covenant by joining another covenant. However, abandoning a covenant in this manner will count as a sin, which will make the player the target of Dark Moon invasions unless they absolve their sins via Oswald of Carim , for a fee equal to their level times If the player wants to abandon their covenant without this occurring, they must do so by speaking to Oswald.
Furthermore, some covenants have rules or restrictions that, if disobeyed, will "break" the covenant. If this happens, the covenant is immediately abandoned, and the player must absolve their sins through Oswald or else risk the wrath of the Dark Moon covenant.
Regardless of how the player leaves their covenant, half of the offerings given to that covenant are lost and their rank is adjusted accordingly. Covenant offerings and rank cannot go below zero in this way. Dark Souls Remastered : You may abandon a covenant through the bonfire menu.
This does not add Sin. If a player has been invaded and is killed, that player may indict the invader. Doing so will add the invader's name to the book of the guilty , after which they will be subject to invasions by Darkmoon covenant members.
The book of the guilty only records the number of times any player has been indicted , and does not count broken covenant vows. Indictments cannot be absolved by Oswald. Oswald will also sell a Book of the Guilty to the player, and by using it the player can see how many times they have been indicted as well as every other indicted player.
It is possible to indict players who have invaded through:. Gave 30 humanities to the fair lady Chaos daughter and left for Blade of the Darkmoon covenant. Upon joining I wasn't even rank 1. I gave a token of reprisal in case something needs to reset but still nothing. Tested out with switching over from Chaos servant to Gravelord servant and the same problem occurred.
