Item discovery can improve the chance that an eligible enemy gives its covenant offering, but it cannot make a drop certain or change which enemies are eligible. Treat this as preparation for the matching farm: identify the offering you need, equip its covenant if required for turn-ins, then repeat the enemy route tied to that item. For example, Anor Londo Silver Knights are a source of Proofs of a Concord Kept, Farron Ghrus can drop Wolf’s Blood Swordgrass, and Catacombs skeletons can drop Vertebra Shackles. Each has its own route and bonfire; this guide covers the shared setup and how to run that setup without confusing the targets.

GET STARTED

How to farm

At Firelink Shrine, equip available discovery gear and the covenant associated with your target offering. Then travel to the bonfire and enemy group named for that offering’s route; there is no single universal covenant-item farming location.

Before you go

  • Know which covenant offering and reward you are pursuing, and confirm its eligible enemy group.
  • Join the relevant covenant if you intend to turn in offerings for rank rewards.
  • Equip item-discovery gear you own, such as the Covetous Gold Serpent Ring or Crystal Sage’s Rapier.
  • Carry Rusted Coins if available; they temporarily improve item discovery.
  1. Check your inventory and note how many of the target offering you already have.
  2. At Firelink Shrine, equip the covenant tied to the reward you want, if needed for turn-in.
  3. Equip your available item-discovery gear; use a Rusted Coin before a run if you choose.
  4. Travel to the named bonfire for the offering’s specific route, such as Anor Londo for Silver Knights or Farron Keep for Ghrus.
  5. Defeat only the eligible enemies identified for that offering, then check your inventory for drops.
  6. Return to that route’s bonfire and rest to respawn enemies; repeat the same route for more attempts.
  7. When you have enough, take the offerings to the covenant’s turn-in location and claim the desired rank reward.

Farming tips

  • Item discovery affects the chance of eligible random drops; it does not turn an unrelated enemy into a source or guarantee an item.
  • Keep the setup focused on one offering at a time so you can track your count and switch to the correct enemy route when your goal changes.

Repeat, collect and use

This is a reusable preparation and reset method, not a separate enemy farm. Eligible enemies respawn when their route is reset at a bonfire, but covenant offerings are random drops and the needed route varies by item. Turn-ins consume offerings; use the covenant’s rank reward goal to set your collection target.

Common mistakes

  • Expecting discovery gear to guarantee a drop: treat every eligible kill as an attempt and continue the route after dry runs.
  • Farming the wrong enemy after changing your goal: verify the named source for the new offering and travel to its bonfire before repeating.
  • Collecting without checking your reward target: confirm the required covenant and desired rank reward, then stop when your inventory covers that goal.

When to stop or switch

Stop the chosen route once you have enough of that specific offering for the rank reward you want; turn it in, then switch to another route only if you have a different covenant goal.
