Chaos Servant Covenant, Why Join?

[mar3usmc]

Besides the obvious shortcut and pyromancies, what's the point of joining this covenant. Seems rather boring.

[『 』]

You save a certain NPC. Since the enemy that kills him is behind the shortcut.

[Groen90]

For the half-spider waifu obviously.

[mar3usmc]

Yes, Soltaire too, but besides that?

[Pirate]

Besides saving Solaire? WHAT ELSE IS THERE! >:O

...well, there is sympathy for the Fair Lady, and the eternal attempt to save her with fresh humanity. There are the two Chaos Pyromancies you get from leveling up in the covenant. And there is the name itself, which for some is appealing enough to choose it over others.

In the end, it's up to what you like and want from there game, not what we think are good "mechanics" it brings.

Curing Quelana's last sister?

[Abaddon]

If you think that's not enough you should stick to the Way of White the whole playthrough.

[mar3usmc]

Actually, was thinking of joining this one, getting the pyromancies, and then going gravelord servant. That one sounds like a great deal of fun.

Anyhow, thanks for the comments. I was just making sure I wasn't missing something about this covenant, but it seems to be a pretty straight forward, non-multiplayer focused, type of covenant.

There is the servant roster but for the most part that's just a showcase of cheaters. I really wish we could put together a case to Namco and/or Steam to ban the obvious cheaters in the book of the guilty. Literally an admin could go through it for 5 minutes and hand out bans as fast as they could submit them.

I remember reading somewhere that joining the Chaos Covenant puts you into a pvp player pool, as opposed to a co-op player pool. If this is right then being a member would increase your chances of invading and being invaded.

*Opens book of the guilty just to see if I recognize any names*
*Goes for "more info" on first name I see*
*SL1 with 99 everything*
*Not sure what I expected*

you get to save sun bro and serve best dark souls waifu! no but in all honesty it's a wonderful rp covenant.

[Raistin Kane]

Just want to point out that you can kill the ennemie that corrupt solaire without even having the shortcut unlocked.
You only need to stay in front of the locked door and use a fog attack (poison/toxic mist, dark fog...) the fog will pass over the door and kill the little monster.
Don't worry about the drop, it will wait for you until you get it from the other side.
30 humanity saved.

I actually tried that earlier, but nothing happened, at least that I could tell. They may have patched that out.

[Cosmic Slop]

I joined out of guilt. First I killed her sister, then I accidentally killed the servant because I thought he was an enemy. Then I killed Kirk. I'm just like...."Damn, I'm really terrible aren't I."

I did it on my last playthrought and can confirm it work.
just make sure that the ennemie hp bar appear when using the fog attack.
