Questions about "Journey 2"

[Fallikaar]

I've beaten Dark Souls 3, given the option to move over to Journey 2, I've looked up about it and I heard it transfers all your gear/estus upgrade and other stuff to the 2nd Journey but enemies are harder.

I was thinking does making a new character make Journey 2 apply to a new character after going over to Journey 2 with another character and does the covenants that I've missed and a few NPC's I forgot to talk to transfer over to Journey 2?

Only curious If it's just worth to make either a new Character or Journey 2 for more harder game as I'm willing to try and complete most achievements In DS3 and I am not sure If making a new character or moving to Journey 2 is better.

Moving to journey 2 will give you a chance to get anything you missed during the first playthrough. It will NOT affect other characters you make. You'll have to get them to journey 2 individually.

Journey 2, or New Game [NG as it's often referred to] will reset your game, your bonfires, but you keep all your items [covenants included] and start at the beginning. All enemies will have 20% more health and deal 20% more damage, and there will be new items to find.

HOWEVER your others saves are unaffected.

Ah even covenants? As I realised I needed to get In a cage, to get to one other covenant for the achievement and I've kind of already killed the boss so I cant really obtain that covenant and also I forgot to talk to one NPC, which I cant talk to anymore because he's apparently already dead.

Appreciate your response though as I am just wondering If it's worth It as In making a new character or just head Into Journey 2 really :D

I see and new items? Like what exactly, I did not know there Is even more un-obtainable items In the NG+ I assume upgraded rings If I'm correct exactly.

Upgraded rings mostly, a couple of weapons with infusions. New souls that give much better rewards than the ones in regular game.

There will be more rings, and soul items you find will be of bigger value, and yes, you can get ANYTHING you missed last playthrough, be it weapons, armor, rings, convenants, questlines, whatever.

I see and a final question, for NG+ for Invasions and summons for boss will I be in another well I don't know how to put it but I will just say realm where people are at In the NG+ (Journey 2) what I mean basically right now, I am still In the current area no-Improvements as of yet will I be able to invade/be summoned to players who are still in their current NG and not Journey 2? or will I only be invading people who are currently In Journey 2.

Your current journey does not affect matchmaking in any way.

In case you want to know more here some tips: Make sure you finish all the quests, there are a lot of quests who still going on even if you already finish the 1st journey, Sirris, Leonhard, and Hawkwood quests for example for some new items.

And don't forget to trade coiled sword for slab to pickle pee, if you don't think you really need it since homeward bones not really cost that much.

Make sure to infuse the weapons you need to, since the entire coal and ashes will be reset again when you start 2nd journey.
