Dark Souls 2 Covenants guide

Bell Keepers

Joining

To join this covenant, you must first find it. To do this, you'll have to open the Pharros' contraption beneath the Servants' Quarters bonfire in the Lost Bastille (see our Dark Soul 2 Pharros' contraption guide for more information). Once you've done so, you can enter Belfry Luna. Speak to the little man inside several times, and he'll offer to let you join.

Alternatively, you can go through the same general steps to enter Belfry Sol in Iron Keep. Again, please see our Dark Souls 2 Pharros' contraptions guide for more information on getting there.

Ranking Up

The Bell Keepers covenant is location-based, meaning your duties revolve around protecting either Belfry Luna or Belfry Sol. You may either be called in to defeat invaders, or invade yourself and kill the current host.

  • Rank 1: Defeat 10 hosts as a Grey Phantom or defeat 10 invading Black Phantoms.
  • Reward: Titanite Slab
  • Rank 2: Defeat 30 hosts as a Grey Phantom or defeat 30 invading Black Phantoms.
  • Reward: Hidden Weapon
  • Rank 3: Defeat 100 hosts as a Grey Phantom or defeat 100 invading Black Phantoms.
  • Reward: Bell Keeper Armor (Full Set)
