If I don't have the dlc's can I still get the blessing?

Submit

so it lasts until the ng+, which kinda sucks when you realize that you can probably get another RoLP/RoSP (yknow, the ring of sacrifice). however, can i activate this again with the 3 crowns acquired from the last playthrough and the king's crown from that last playthrough? just askin guys.

Submit

Just clicked then, I swear this is a mercy gift for Frigid Outskirts

Submit

Do you need all 4 Crowns, or can you just grab the King's Crown or a Crown and have it blessed? It seems like an awful lot of work to go through, not only the base game but all the other DLCs just to keep Max Health and Immune to Curse Effects just to not carry over to NG+.

Submit

the only use for this is to make the optional dlc areas a tiny bit more tolerable

Submit

So will Vendrick bless the NG crowns in NG+, or not?

Submit

EVERYONE FORGOT ABOUT BONFIRE ASTETICS JUST PUT A BONFIRE ASTETIC TO EXPREENCE NG +
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Submit

What's the point of this blessing while you received at the end of the game and not carrying for NG+?! For me, I found that there is a ring in the game which called Ring of Life Protection, and I didn't aware of that until reading this page :))

Submit

Ring of Life Protection >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> this blessing.

The blessing is great for PvP as a host. Wear one of the crowns and feel free to summon any red or dragon spirit, you only losesouls if you die, and assuming you fight at the Iron Keep bridge, it's very close to bonfire, so it's guaranteed you recover your souls upon death.
The blessing doesn't give much for PvE, but it's handy for PvP when you didn't git gud enough.

Why doesn't it carry in ng+ ?

i mean you get it so late in the game, and all the bosses you had to kill just to get it. All that just for it to begone when you go in ng+.

I mean yes you can get it back in ng+ but it's only by repeating the same thing to get it again. It's tideous.

I thought you can now start a new game without having to use human effigy's again. And i mean the buff only works if you have one of the crowns on so it's not that broken to be honest.

So why even make it so you can't carry it in ng+ doesn't make any sense.

Submit

I killed all bosses in the game it didn't work. I did put vendricks area into ng+1 via bonfire ascetic so maybe that's why it isn't working?

Submit

just beat Ivory King and spoke to Vendrick. I don't have the King's Crown, yet he still gave me the blessing. Is this a bug or intended?
Ver. 1.11, not SOTFS

Submit

I feel everyone is missing the fact that this is scholar of the first sin and vendricks brother has been pushing you toward vendrick and his knowledge of the soul and curse all so you could get the crown, let the flame fade, and rule the dark as the true monarch and the only one able to keep their humanity and immortality

Submit

So I had got all 4 crowns, and the kings crown, and went through the animation to revive his blessing. But when I put on a crown I’m still hollow. I’m still in the original new game. Please help?

Submit

It doesn't end the curse, you'll still respawn after death. I guess that's immortality for the bearer of the curse.

Submit

well this was pointless i though that if i get the king blessing , i shall not be hollow anymore but seems to be very useless cause i think that wearing , ring of binding was no longer needed... damn i hate to hide my ugly hollow ass face with a bag of paper .PD actually a syans helm Llewelyn armor judgment gloves velstad leggins.

Submit

Do i need to collect all the crowns again on NG+ ? Because i don't get the blessings on NG+ aft i talked to him

Submit

What's even the point of having this at the end of the game? You'll hardly have something to do when you get this

Submit

I guess you are supposed to boss rush the dlcs doing only the main bosses and then once you have the blessing you can do lud and zallen, aged smelter, etc

Submit

what's the not lore point in doing this if it won't carry over since you will probably have done everything by the time you get this

Submit

Have you ever heard of the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?

Submit

Ironic. He could save others from hollowing, but not himself.

Submit

Guess this is usefull for PVP as it lets you host infinite invasions, if you also summon some friends they become the king's guards protecting from invaders, could be fun if i wasn't so late to play this game online, at least on PS4 its freeking dead even with the corona out there

Submit

Surprisingly I’m not the only one playing this years later lol. Lost interest after the 1st dark souls. Pandemic made me dust off my old 360 and continue dark souls 2.

Submit

To all who said this was dumb, vendrick's blessing prove that the king has the immue from being hollowing though we found him hollwed, wandering round. The power is serve as a plot, an iceberg.

Submit

After beating the game I came to him and I didn't get any cutscene. I didn't know I had to do it before

Submit

Did you just complete the game and have nothing else to do in it? Cool here's a power up that doesn't punish you for dying while aimlessly wandering around. Just don't take it with you into a new game, that would be silly.

Submit

I beat all 3 dlc and got kings crown but I cant get the buff, anyone know why?

Submit

It's absolutely ridiculous that you have to recomplete the DLCs on NG+. What's the point of a "no hollowing" buff when you have, at most, optional bosses and the last encounter left? I basically don't give a crap if I'm human or not then anyway and would take the armour aesthetic over the effect anyway.

Submit

Crap I can’t continue my seigmire cosplay but I want to wear the crown onion hat or crown what should I chose

Submit

"Effect doesn't carry to next NG" So what's the point knowing we'll get that at the very very very end of the game after tons of efforts??

Submit

im*****

Submit

Between this n actually being able to fix the rings of life protection, at a certain point in the game there’s really no reason u should be loosing souls

Submit

Unless you stopped going through the game's difficulties to pvp or something I don't see why they made this only work per Ng cycle. And it's not like effigies or the ring of life protection are hard to get, so while it isn't a big issue, I'd love it if they kept the perk permanently. Oh well...

Submit

It will be very helpful since this will spare a slot for a ring (in which there was the Ring of Life Protection in my progress). However, sad to say that when I have collected all 4 crowns, there will only be about 3 (or 4) bosses left (i.e. Lud and Zallen, Aldia and Nashandra).

Do I have to collect the 3 DLC crowns again in NG+? Or using the same 3 crowns obtained in NG will be enough?

Submit

Try tongue but hole

Submit

Do you have to get the crowns, or can you just talk to vendrick

Submit

I think you can still hold on to the DLC crowns

Submit

It doesn't carry to NG+? That's dumb, what's the point of doing it then?
