#Chalice dungeon glyphs mini code#

I’ve since read that we could use an item called the Short Ritual Root Chalice that allows you search public dungeons and join them at whatever layer the other player is on that still doesn’t solve the progression not being shared problem, though. To get the materials to make the next dungeon, we’ll need to create another dungeon and farm its specific materials to bring back. If we could reliably match up and go through them without much headache, it might be worth it, but instead, one of my friends and I spent three hours clearing one dungeon - twice, since progress isn’t shared. It is insane that we have to go through so many steps just to play these awful dungeons together. Because of the two previous rules and because only the host player actually gets any critical items or makes any progress, we must alternate each layer: Player One summons in to help Player Two clear a layer, then Player Two summons in to help Player One clear the exact same layer in Player One’s game, then repeat for subsequent layers.Once we beat the boss of a layer, whichever player summoned in will then disappear and must re-summon at the next layer.We cannot be on different layers and summon to the other layer, even if one person has already been to that layer in his own game.We must both be in the same chalice dungeon in roughly the same area when we use the Beckoning Bell/Small Resonant Bell.

We much each make a chalice in the same area individually and separately, then one of us can join the other’s by manually entering in the glyph code (a series of eight randomly generated characters).

Our characters must be within a certain percentage of levels of each other to match, which we can determine using a summon calculator.

We must make sure neither of us are in opposing covenants.

We must change our network settings to “Worldwide” and set a common password.

These are the rules I scribbled down last night to keep myself sane: This meant that we needed to alternate summoning: I would help him clear a layer and defeat the boss, then he’d go light the lamp on the next layer, come back and warp into my game to help me clear out the exact same layer we had just done and beat the exact same boss we had just beaten.

If my friend was on Layer Two, for instance, and I was still on Layer One, I couldn’t jump into his game yet until I had cleared my own Layer One and was on Layer Two myself. More egregious was that since each dungeon is divided up by “layer” with a boss fight punctuating each one, we actually had to be on the same layer to get summoned into the other’s game.

He warped back to the Hunter’s Dream, took off the Vileblood rune, loaded back into the dungeon, and we were able to connect (after several more minutes of searching). Even still, though, we had plenty of problems to deal with, not the least of which that any time we would beat a boss, the game would send me back to my world the same way it does in the rest of the game, so we’d have to go through the entire matching process again. We each started doing the dungeon solo in our own worlds and chatting not exactly what we had in mind for co-op play.Įventually I realized that he had joined the Vilebloods covenant, so the game refused to let us connect since we were supposed to be mortal enemies - I was an Executioner. The first time I played co-op with a friend, we went through the ridiculous steps we had found online - setting a network password, changing our connection from “local” to “worldwide,” each creating a dungeon then joining a common one - and were still unable to connect after at least 10 minutes of waiting with no explanation.
