Dried Finger | Dark Souls 3 Wiki

I wanted to do a run with all possible NPC summons at once. I could summon 2 phantoms for Vordt and 3 for Deacons but now I cannot summon my 3 NPC minions for Abyss Watchers. I cannot get more than one. I have never used summoning before and I have never purchased Dried Fingers from the merchant in Firelink. Are the fights against Vordt and Deacons just an exeption on max phantoms rule or what?

Something I wish to know, does having Dried Finger in your inventory also allow you to get invaded more frequently? Only reason I ask is because I decided not to get it this particular run and I've only been invaded a small number of times, much less than I normally would have if I had bought it.

I think this is a reference to elden ring

hi

Submit

If I use a dried finger solo, could I still be invaded by two invaders or just one still?

Submit

The description should say that it summons an extra either invader or friendly phantom not just 3 frendlies AND 2 invaders just got into heated arguement with friends over this minor misunderstanding so a small edit would be much appreciated

I love pvp and have used this item a lot. I would set white signs down while popping dry finger to pass time (what ever comes first) my main question is how can I provoke and get more invaders? I love the challenge and want to find out more to get more red phantoms. Pls help

How can you summon 5 dark spirits? I can only summon 3, and Aldrich is alive.

Submit

Using a dried finger should eliminate the invasion cooldown timer altogether. The timer makes perfect sense with a solo host or a host and just one phantom trying to grunt through the PvE, but anyone running 4 players against PvE designed for one should have to contend with more than just an extra invader followed by silence for the rest of the level.

Tried a dried finger run at SL125 meta as a solo host hoping for utter madness, and High Wall was amazing - never went more than 3 minutes without two people trying to halt my progress. But then after High Wall it immediately went almost totally dry until Pontiff. And Pontiff is just Pontiff, usual meta***** - none of the craziness of trying to clear a level with actual major challenges in the way. I'm not sure if doing a dried finger run "normally" from low SL and progressing up will yield more action and just no one is invading at the meta anymore, or if the dried finger just doesn't do much for solo hosts. In both cases, sort of sucks. Popping a finger should swarm you with invaders whether you're solo or not.

Submit

This item is useless on an sl1 run, no one ever invades and you never see any summon signs that aren't NPCs.

Good old 4v1 gank sqauds

do you need to be embered for this to work?

Using the dried finger also boosts your hidden stats quite a bit. When you're in a tough area give it a try

Does this have any effect on my summon sign? Does it allow me to be summoned by a greater range of users?

Only the manliest of men can use the fingers in the crucifixion woods and clear the area. Way of the blue is acceptable for this challenge

I cannot buy this item, it shows up as out of stock at the handmaiden and I have not previously purchased it, has anyone else experienced this glitch?

Submit

***** this item. ***** gank squads. ***** fight clubs.

I for one am tired of everyone that summons me using this stupid finger only to get two phantoms and then getting invaded 5-8 times in a row, please PLEASE don't forget that you get invaded easier using it! I only have at most half the estus you have and I am NOT ready to fight through every invader on the planet.

Thanks!

Does it work if you have already defeated the area boss? Wanted to fight invaders at Ariendal chapel to see how long I could last but remembered you can't be invaded after killing the area boss. Does this solve that issue or do I need to NG+ and get there and not kill Friede and Father Ariendal?

Submit

I'm getting insanely frustrated with this.. I have a dried finger buff active permanently on my account, even dying fast traveling and creating new characters doesn't fix it, getting 3 V 1's in ever single area with no cool down. any way to get rid of it?!?

Submit

So, if me and a friend want to summon a third person(who's a random and not a friend, just to make that clear)
Do we have to remove our password to find his summon sign? Or will we still be able to summon a random phantom without removing the password?

Submit

I accidentally sold mine, do I have to wait till ng+

Submit

You dont

Submit

For those wondering, you can use this item infinite times. It will allow you to summon a third phantom in most areas, but also allows you to be invaded by another. You can summon up to 5 dark phantoms if you use it. It loosens SL restrictions, making it so you can be invaded by someone who is around 70 levels higher than you. In Anor Londo and the Crucifixion Woods, you can only summon two phantoms, although the 5 dark spirits can still be summoned just fine.

Submit

Nice.

Submit

I tried mulltiple times to host a fight club. But i can only summon 2 phantoms and i popped the fingers before that. It is a bug or something?

Submit

Weakest item ever, does 2 million damage to dancer. Weak af

Submit

How many dried fingers are possible to get in game? Is there only one? Does it ever refill?

Submit

If you use it in a low level area (High wall of Lothric) you can get people invading you with end game gear, seems to remove Soul Level Difference. Tried and tested

Submit

Would be nice if this also allowed you to be invaded in areas in which you have defeated the boss.

Submit

that sux we can only get 1 ea run

Submit

can you get more than one after you buy the one from the haindmaid?

Submit

I was wondering since you can use it.

This is what the series has devolved into. Finger banging giant tree hugging 4v1 circle jerks.

Submit

It only let's me summon two reds. But I have seen worlds where there are up to 4 anyone know why

Submit

My bros and I discovered that if you use this item in Anor Londo, you can get invaded by three phantoms, usually two Aldrich Faithful and one red phantom, but we saw that in the inverse at least twice. side note:If you want some decent PvP/ganking, get a good crew and wait at the bottom of the ladder at bonfire with the Crocodogs. Drop prism stones (we did this in an arrow) to let invaders know where to go, pop a seed, and just wait. Invaders will usually stagger in one at a time, and won't really be able to escape. We had 17 kills, 4 people who quit (all of them hard quitting or using the crystal), and 2 who were killed in PvE, in 30 minutes.

Submit

Hi there can anyone tell me were I can buy more of this dried finger as the handmaid only sells 1 ?

Submit

So I think this item has a condition to it in some areas. I had a party of four on Xbox and we were trying to get together as usual and it seemed to not work as intended in the Road of Sacrifices. We could only summon a second phantom AFTER we used the Dried Finger. We thought maybe it could be connection based but after multiple attempts, the same result was replicated. I really don't know why this is, either it was a bad time to try and summon three phantoms or the person who wrote the items description didn't get the memo that certain areas only allow for one other phantom.Can someone else confirm this?

Submit

I was playing today with 3 friends, we all used our password to summon one another without having to remove the password for the 3rd phantom.

Submit

why can't i summon more than 2 red's after i summon 2 all signs go away

Submit

It's worth noting that they allow you to summon 3rd helper, but if you have dried fingers on no phantoms can enter boss fights.

Submit

It is possible to play 4vs2 (4 friendly vs 2 enemy)If you want to play 3 Friends you have to do it this way, Summon two of your friends first with password. Then Use the dried finger and then remove your password and let your friend place his sign somewhere hidden so you can find him first. It worked for me

Submit

In the online information section it says...It is possible to have anything from a 3v3 to a 1v5 scenario.But it does not say in what context this can happen. Can you please add more information in each section to add more context to the mechanics when possible?Such as how the 1v5 can happen, 3v3. I'll be checking covenants to check more out about this. :3
