AnonymousAs if this wasn't already an annoying grind, they just had to be one of the few enemies in the game that you have to wait for their entire super slow death animation to play and the corpse to completely disappear before you know whether or not they dropped anything.

These guys are the worst. I wanted to farm 10 of the stupid Human Dregs, but I'm a sorc and they're resistant to everything I can do. They aggro from 8 miles away and just spam fireballs all damn day. And the drop rate is abysmal. Ugh!

Which moron wrote the trivia? They have "roots" growing out of their eyes and feet? Do you not know what veins are ?

If you go to Yotobi's gameplay of DS3 (it's in italian), sometime after defeating Aldritch he sits at his bonfire in the arena, and right after that a fireball hits him. That's how annoying these ****heads are

too bad i can't get those sweet blue robes, since all you ever get farming these guys is the "armor" set

I'm convinced that the summoning rules are different for this area. There are far more summons and it's feels like everyone I'm summoned against has a ocean of health here. Realistically it's because of the "arena" that's nearby but god damn.

there is actually a difference between a deacon and a devout, a deacon is standard, only firing fireballs every so often, but much rather interested in poking you with his candle, a devout on the other hand is/are ganky pieces of sh*t that will spam gank you with fireballs like your pinned down on a war zone with 4 M16's on you

For anyone wondering which is the fastest farming method, these are some quick test results. Each type of run was performed 10 times, with a melee weapon and a warp back to the bonfire. YMMV, but here's the data I got: Aldrich Bonfire, first 3 only: 32-33 seconds/run, 10.8 seconds/enemy (very consistent) Aldrich Bonfire, first 3 + 5 upstairs: 60-70 seconds/run, 8.1 seconds/enemy (inconsistent, some deaths) Pontiff Sulyvahn Bonfire: 90-100 seconds/run, 10.6 seconds/enemy (somewhat consistent) Water Reserve Bonfire: 100-105 seconds/run, 11.4 seconds/enemy (consistent) TLDR; Aldrich bonfire w/ all 8 Devout is the fastest, but it's somewhat difficult and you may die sometimes. All other methods are roughly the same, so go by personal preference!

I’m trying to get human dregs, I have the gold ring and I’m crushing coins and they’re not dropping a single thing. Help

By the way their death sound is exactly the death sound of Silver/Black Knights from Dark Souls I

4 Devout of the Deep can be found just outside the Deacons Boss gate. Others are scattered in and around the Cathedral.
