Guardian Seal not Working?
Apart from it taking ages for me to help anyone out (this is a guy in NG+ with over 6,000,000 SM) ... after the patch, the covenant's icon doesn't flash anymore when I wear the ring. I'm still a Blue Sentinel, but it seems to only work in very specific areas, but even on the Iron Keep Bridge- it doesn't flash before and after i've dealt with the bosses. Someone please inform me as to what's going on.

In order to rank up fast and efficiently as no one joins way of the blue, which is required for you to be summoned is a way of the blue member is invaded (so hardly) and instead you should buy or farm Blue cracked orbs and invade evildoers aka invaders

after you defeat an area boss, you have to go to the bonfire in that area and "nullify effigy effect" because playing with others is not possible unless you allow it. also i think you have a limited time to nullify the effect. then maybe bonfire ascetic

No... for Guardian Sentinels, the ring only works IF there are players in the Way of the Blue Covennat and there really isn't there is no reward, there is nothing worth it in that crap. So his only option is to duel in the cathedral basement using tokens of fidelity, or to use cracked blue orbs.

I've been trying the ring at 30,000 SM (agape ring), so far nothing.

...thats not what he was asking though. he said why isnt the blue seal flashing. i answered. maybe forgot to mention you have to be human to be summoned, but thats it really. if pvp is live it will flash.
i wear the seal too. since the patch ive gotten summoned with a new character more times than my two previous characters combined.
and there is something rewarding about helping someone who wants it. its a lot of fun.

What SM is your character and where are you at to be summoned? I want to help as many people against invaders as possible please! :hp_tiffany:

Man, since I started my new character I've only managed to get summoned once with the Guardian seal and I didn't even connect to his world before he died. I'm also quite sad they took down the Far Fire website to help keep tracking of conventant sizes.

I'm currently at Heides by the first bonfire trying to get some action, but nothing so far for almost 15 minutes.

I'm surprised they didn't fix this covenant in SOTFS

Early in the game there is always a lot of people. Immediatelly as I reached the cathedral in NG I took the seal and I was being summoned like every 5 minutes, just crazy. And I was only curious if that works, I didn´t ever help anyone. I personally, I detest these cowards and lames, who are trying to gank an invader and even in 2v1 have guts to run and heal. But yeah - technically, it works just fine, only later on there aren´t many people. Both of you have to be in human form and both have to wear the seal - to be summoned, otherwise nothing is going to happen.

And blue orbs are the best in late game. The red are always tied to the local area, so it´s not that easy to find someone. But if you are invading as the Arbiter spirit, you can invade people in whole gaming world (for example, I activated the blue orb in Heide´s tower and I appeared as invader in the Eleum Loyce).
