Soul of the King

soul of the king

Soul of Vendrick, King of Drangleic.
The King was wasted away, a shadow of his former self, but still held something dear.
Use the soul of he who would link the flame to acquire numerous souls, or create something of great worth.

Scholar of the first Sin changed to:
Soul of Vendrick, King of Drangleic.
This great soul beckoned the Dark, overwhelming the King. Perhaps this King, who once ruled the world of men, was a lacking vessel for the true throne.
Use the soul of he who would link the flame to acquire numerous souls, or to create something of great worth.

Soul of the King is a consumable item in Dark Souls 2.

 

 

Usage

 

Location

From the second bonfire in Shrine of Amana, follow the path until the high wall structure. There is a Amana Priestess directely on the left of that structure. From her position, go left and you'll find a submerged brick path. Be careful of another Priestess hidden in the structure who will be able to target from behind while you follow the path. At the end of the path, there are tree roots blocking the door, destroying the roots gives you access to the door, behind it is a chair with the Soul of the King on it and to the left, there is a path leading to his set.
 Only obtainable after having defeated Vendrick in Undead Crypt. The door can only be opened if you have restored your humanity.

 

Notes

  • This Item will not respawn with the use of a Bonfire Ascetic
  • You need take the armor to exchange the soul. (It's in the same room)
  • Using Bonfire Ascetic to defeat Vendrick again does NOT respawn soul

      can you please write proper guides "by the partially submmerged bridge that you have to break vines"
      NO INCORRECT. ONLY VINES YOU BREAK IN THE AREA ARE GUARDED BY A KNIGHT, AND HAVE AN OGRE BEHIND THEM.
      IF YOU CAN'T DO YOUR JOB QUIT TO MAKE ROOM FOR SOMEONE ELSE!
      THIS WHOLE SITE IS PATHETIC.

        "The door can only be opened if you have restored your humanity." Is there other place in the game like this?

          How silly of me to think that the soul of the king might be at the boss instead of some random chair in a swamp.

            Does anyone know why his soul is just sitting on a chair in some random cave he'd be too big to fit into anyways? Is there any explanation behind this that I've missed?

              So... To get all 3 Boss items I have to go through 2 more NG Cycles? Oh great. Sad I can't just respawn Vendrick and pick the soul again. Weird decision imo.

                So what would be the best item to get with the first soul? Any advice on that? I realize that my personal play style might have some effect on the answer, but what are some of the pros and cons to choosing one item over another?
