There are no official PvP areas, but popular community locations tend to evolve over time. If you're looking for PvP action, however, it's generally wisest to leave your sign in a known PvP area. After all, a Summon Sign left in a rarely-visited corner of the world is unlikely to attract much attention.Ĭo-op players in particular should be mindful of this, and always place their Summon Sign in one of two failsafe locations: either directly outside a boss fog gate, or at the bonfire closest to the boss gate, if the approach to the final confrontation is particularly hazardous. This might sound obvious to Dark Souls pros, but it's important to consider WHERE you place your Summon Sign if you hope to be invited into someone else's game. Whenever a phantom dies in that world (whether they be hostile or friendly), all remaining players will gain one Estus Flask refill. If your Estus stockpile starts to dwindle while you're in another player's game, all is not lost. PvP players, however, do not receive a reduction in health when being summoned.

Don't panic though! These changes are made to better balance co-operative play and your stats will revert to their original levels once you return to your own world. Note that your health bar and Estus Flask tally will (temporarily) be reduced on arrival if you're joining a co-op game. Once another player finds and activates your Summon Sign, you'll automatically be transported to their world. Incidentally, if you still don't have them, the White Sign Soapstone can be purchased from the Firelink Shrine Handmaiden for 500 Souls, and the Red Sign Soapstone can be acquired by killing the spell-casting worm situated outside Rosaria's Bed Chamber in the Cathedral of the Deep. Note that you can't leave a Summon Sign in a boss room, even if you've cleared it. Simply stand where you wish to place your Summon Sign then use either the White Sign Soapstone to lay a co-op marker or the Red Sign Soapstone to lay a PvP marker. If you want to to be invited into another player's world, the process is just as straightforward as summoning a player to you.
