Ok, help me understand the rat king covenant

[Leonardo]

So i join the covenant and wear a ring. i have to stay in door of pharos until someone invade me. ok... so all the enemies are aiming on him and trying to kill him. if i kill him i get a pharros lockstone. but and him? oh god thats the second time a guy invade my world, use some gestures like they want to fight with me. we fight, both can use estus. ok, then its a pvp area... so suddenly he just run away from me, enter the fogwall and then he leaves to his world. seriously, what kind of fuchked up thing is this? what he wins, entering my territory, and then pass all the way? the point of a pvp covenant is not killing the other player to get a item? thats so anyoing.

if you cant kill him and he run to the end . he wins pharros lockstone too..pvp is kinda uselss in this convevnt .. u must lay traps like with pyromancy to be able to kill him fast

The goal is to stop them from getting through the burrow by all means necessary... equipment breakage, mobs, lightning or spell spamming, you name it...
that's what all the contraptions scattered around are for!

and about the rules to be summoned to his world? you must be from the rat covenant or its not necessary?

[Unknown]

you must be in Pharros area or grave of siants (in Rat convenant) and just wait till somebody go to those area and they will be summoned to your world so you can kill them

[Unknown]

you must wear the ring too and wait , you will seee the convavnt sympol glowing . means its serching for players ... unwear it after 5 min interval so it act like refreshing browser

thanks for the tip about unwear it. but if i want to invade other people world, how do i do that? it looks like cross the area is more easy than fight in pvp. i must leave the covenant? i know im being contraditory, but i want to test it.

Why do you want that? You don't get anyting for crossing Rat area when you invade besides useless pharros stone. Covenant points are awarded ONLY when you kill invading guy in your world.

i finish this game several times then just for fun im activating all the pharos doors. just for fun. im actually trying to do everything this game has to offer before new game plus.

as far as i know you cant invade people who come to this area but they will be summoned to your world . This covenant is PvP based but with an emphasis on protecting "your turf."

In addition to what HellFire said --

The reason you don't invade trespassers but summon them into your world is because of the trap-setting mechanic. No point unlocking/setting traps in your world, only to be summoned to the trespasser's world where none of the traps might have been activated. The trespasser has to just survive and make it to the fog door at the other end to win and the Ratbro must stop him by any means necessary. Nice design and a welcome change from the regular invasions.

i guess none of you answered properly yet and are changing the focus of the question. i say i WANT to be summoned into other people world, and i want to know if that is only possible if im not in the covenant(i guess would be summoned automaticaly just because im in that area) or i can just remove the rat king covenant and that will happen. i guess the reason why people are not atacking me in that area is because im wearing the ring, right? or its because im in the covenant? or both? if i dont wear the ring, i will be "summoned"?

its just a curiosity. by the way, i activate all doors of pharos and oh boy... i guess its impossible anyone survive invading me again in that area hahaha. im use a alone knight set+10, a special alone bow +5 that throw heavy arrow spears on then hahaha, im loving this! Im also using a giant sworld with high adaptability, the pvp is very easy. another thing, i would never imagined that stone gyrm statue would throw axes all over the place. and that messages all over the place calling some of the pharos doors that activate the gyrms useless... and i dont know if its the axes(they are poinoned or something) but often when a guy/girl enter my world, they get poisoned or something and start to lose much health.

anyway, someone has a guide of all doors of pharos that are in this game?

This should do it. http://darksouls2.wiki.fextralife.com/Doors+of+Pharros

[SevenSeptembers]

Oh wait. Wrong link. For some reason it shows location and not all actual doors.

This should work. http://darksouls2.wikidot.com/pharros-lockstone

This is a pretty specific, pre-new NG cycle need, I'd say. Usually you would just look up either a.) some item you know is in the game but you're missing (cloranthy ring, which is behind a Pharos contraption); or b.) a specific contraption you're looking at on which you don't know if it's worth spending a stone.
At any rate, here's what you're looking for:

Allow me to add you're pretty lazy, I must say; googling "DS2 all pharos contraptions" yields that URL as a second result.
