Well as far as I know there are two ways you can go about it.
You can either join the covenant by
talking to the dude next to tower in Majula that counts your deaths. It summons blue sentinels when you get invaded
reduces the chances of in invasion but also the chances of summoning
I picked the weird cracked thing that does something ambiguous. Not a clue what to do with it.
So I missed out on a key? Well shit.
Where is this guy?

Uh oh. The merchant "old hag" sitting beside the bonfire above TLG boss is now gone... Where did she go? U checked Majula already and she's not there, I need the effigy she's selling, damnit.
The key lets yu in the locked mansion in majula.
You missed out on one of those face stone keys
He didn't drop anything after you killed him? That seems like a thing that would be a drop.
He dropped his helmet and said something about a map as he died.

Same here and ive only played for an hour!
Started off as a deprived using nothing but my bare hands! Best way for an experienced player to start though I am glad I doubled back to the tutorial area to secure my first weapon lol
You're making my wait very, very difficult.

I actually love how different the 3 games are. Makes it all the more stimulating
So has anyone figured out how to get humanity back without using an effigy?
I helped a bunch of people and never had humanity restored (but i had also just died a lot).
I made a new character, died once, helped someone (until time ran out) and then was human when i came back to my world. Does helping someone (until you get one of the item things) restore ONE death? Is that's what is going on? So if you have the 50%, you have to help like 10 people before you're fully restored?
Also: Is there an enemy that you can farm for effigies?

Its great isnt it? I quite enjoy being able to farm the last giant for souls!
You always regain Humanity when you defeat a boss while summoned.
I posted in this thread that the breakpoint of Agility (via ADP) is at 38. A video I posted and the wiki confirms this information. From the streams people gathered that there seemed to be diminishing returns from Level 20 ADP upwards.
Was that misinformation? What is the difference between 20 ADP and 38 ADP?

Aw, no way! Definitely should've taken that. Is there another way to get it?
I can confirm this isn't the case. I was at 50% health, full hollow, and helped someone with the last giant. He died and I was sent back and was human again.
This was not my experience when I helped someone kill a boss yesterday.

That elevator just below the bonfire in there? Take that elevator, it will take you to the hallway that has a fog wall. That fog wall has the boss that will drop the soldiers key, that key will open the area with turtles.
This key can be used on multiple doors that are locked around this area.
Mind posting the wiki link?
yeah, its a crazy scramble to summon ppl. everyone is summoned so fast!
getting summoned is sooo easy. im loving this update most of all.
Did you fight a named boss? What did that boss drop? Have you found anything that would use it?
explicit answer:
The Last Giant drops a key, use the key on the doors that were locked.
This is not true. I have beaten many bosses and not turned human after returning. I have also been returned to human as well. Really curious if there is a condition or if the servers are just buggy.
nvm
Dead end for me too. Left it for later.
Yeah I already got the key but where do I find the door for it? I think I used this particular key on 2 doors already.
But that's not true at all. I wish i had somehow documented or recorded that, because I helped people kill
that boss on the ghost ship with 2 bodies
ring of binding (or whatever it's called)
Very well hidden in the Forest. I only just found him myself.
You have to drop off a tree and run around on roof tops until you find a hole in the wall.
(Forest of Giants)
From the Hag bonfire: go down the ladder, take the door on the left, and then open the locked door on the right. You'll go down a semi-dark stair case.

Go down that bonfire ladder. Go left, when facing the ladder. There is a hole in the wall, enter it. Just walk straight, down a stairs and you will see the door that leads you to those turtles.
My ass is getting kicked on that area lol.
Bring a torch too.
He apparently only accept 2 items now:
Smooth & Silky Stone (normal and small), and the Petrified something gift. And what you receive is randomized. Although the gift does guarantee you a better drop
Something important for everyone regarding dropping/discarding items:
Leave = drop the item on the floor
Discard = destroy it forever
Just a head's up.
Thank you (and everyone else)!

Just started the game and got to Majula, where my spears at!?
One of the vendors in Majula sells one.
She should be in majula near the stone wall by the entrance to the forest. She is not far from the majula bonfire.

Really getting into the game now, but one thing is irking me: I started as a knight, but didn't get any of the gear it said I was supposed to get in the wiki. Where's my broadsword?
You can see a walkway above the tree but no clue how to get there.
