Human Dregs Usage
- Covenant item for ranking up in the Aldrich Faithful
Human Dregs Locations
- Rare drop from the Devout of the Deep (1%, 2% from tall deacons)
- Very rare drop from Murkmen in the Dreg Heap (0.3%, 1% from summoners)
- Behind an illusory wall in the tower underneath the stairs, across the courtyard of the sleeping Giant Slave enemies in Anor Londo. Down the ladder behind the illusory wall are two Sulyvahn's Beast enemies. At the center of this room is a Human Dreg and in the corner is Archdeacon McDonnell.
- (Online Use) Obtained as a reward upon successfully defeating a trespasser while in the Aldrich Faithful covenant.
Notes
- These are easiest to obtain via drops by taking the elevator up from the Pontiff Sulyvhan bonfire, as there are nine Devout of the Deep along the courtyard overlook.
- Alternate route: From Aldrich, Devourer of Gods bonfire, after defeating him you can backtrack to the entrance of room where three Devout of the Deep are facing backwards.
Trivia
- Human Dregs are speculated to be the same thing as Humanity in previous parts of the game series.

took me 1 hour and 15 minutes to get 9 (I already had one)
used the Aldrich bonfire which I found to be more efficient. I had 257 discovery

Got 9 dregs in about 45 minutes. Equip Aldrich covenant, spawn at Pontiff's bonfire, go up the lift, and farm the deacons. You'll get summoned very frequently and even if you are unsuccessful, the deacons definitely drop them more frequently after you return from the invasion. I got dregs from the first several deacons I killed after returning 3 times in a row.

Miyazaki wanted to name the game "Deacon Skirts 3" but thankfully B-team stepped in and suggested "Dark Souls 3."

if you are using the trousers/leggings, try it with Havels Leg's, subjectively those are giving me the highest drop rates
Stay safe my hollow friends!

If you are using the trousers swap trick while farming, try it with Havels Legs, subjectively they give me the best drop rates.

Took me around 15 minutes do drop 10 of these above the Pontiff's bonefire with 375 item discovery and a bit of luck on my part.
Please note that the bodies of the deacons need to fade away for the drop to appear, it takes a couple seconds.
Also some drops might appear on snow or in bushes, so it might be hard to spot them. Be careful not to miss any and this'll be the easiest farm of your life.

Not too bad to farm if I'm honest, can be combined with POACK's by doing runs between Anor Londo's bonfire and Aldrich's in both directions.
I'd suggest moving to the ones above Sulyvahn's bonfire once you have 9 so that when that 10th one pops you're only seconds from turning them in to McDonnell.

in 2020 this game is dead and you can't farm this easily without being ganked

Are there any double version of human dregs, like how there are forked pale tongues and proof of a concord well kept?

Easily farmed by not getting ganked in the worst PvP area of the game

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!

If all covenant items were as easy to farm as this, it would be a merrier world.

Who the hell is this man trying to tie this to Blood Dregs and Dreglings? Does he realize that just cause all three have Dreg does not mean they are the same right?

To farm those I recommend starting from water reserve bonfire. The ladder climbing is a bit long (though from Pontiff waiting for the elevator to go down then up is long too), but then the enemies will have their back turn to you. Therefore with a ring that hide your steps, you could hit them before they see you, and therefore not bother rolling to avoid their fireball. As a faith build, I farm those dregs with "wrath of the gods" spell, it kills them all at once when I'm in the middle of them. Then when I killed them all, I use the homeward spell to go back to the bonfire. With the two serpent rings and symbol of avarice only (I missed the crystal sage rapier), they drop quite often (like 1 in two or three runs), and I earn a lot of souls. (Someone please delete the anonymous post below, with the same comment, I forgot to log in ^^)

For whoever is interested: With an item discovery of 375 (Ring +3 + Symbol of avarice + Rusted coin) I got 8 drops in 160 enemies aprox, so its one human dreg every 20 enemies.

NG + with avarice, +3 ring, one sage rapier and no point in luck it drops once every 20 - 30 enemies for me.. best place is the aldrich room i think and when i get bored i go to the pontiff area for a change of scenery, then back to aldrich again... i also kill them all, not just the first 3.

Just got 10 dregs going backwards from aldrich bonfire with only covetous ring, mimic helm and coins. Took about 50 min. Killed all the deeps every run.
Item discovery lvl 322 did like 6/7 runs of deacons and no dregs, but am frequently getting them from being summoned and then the player dying of natural cause, always handy =)

If you equip the Aldrich Faithful covenant status thingy you can farm the dregs much easier. From the pontiff bonfire, up that lil elavator, and out the door I got one evey run through...got them real quick

These do NOT drop off Murkmen in DLC! (Tested with 400+ item discovery for 20 minutes)

It's easy to get the number you need, don't let anyone fool you just for being bitter about being ganked, Ganks will happen, you'll probably lose most of them, but you'll get the dregs. The covenant rewards Sorcery Builds more so than Clerics. The mobs that drop them don't have as bad of a drop rate as everyone says (that's just my experience, I got my last ten Dregs in about a thirty minute sitting from Water Reserve to the Elevator at Pontiff with full grind gear.)

Sat by the Water Reserve bonfire, with the Aldrich Faithful Covenant item equipped, got summoned in to a bunch of invasions back to back, got the ten Human Dregs need for Great Deep Soul in about twenty minutes.

So are these easier to farm in murkmen(Ringed city) or still on the devouts?
- Anonymous
There are 8 Devout in total outside aldrich and doesn't require you to take an elevator and go down a long line of them. While there is 1 less Devout, it's so much faster and easier than the Pontiff one
- Anonymous
These are very easy to farm on ng from Aldritch's bonfire,but you should defeat all the Devouts nearby,not just the first three.

Human dregs turns into to garbage for some reason, i had like 6 of them and lost them all.
- Anonymous
I have no reason to turn these in, I just like to keep them as gank spank trophies.
Because that's all I can think of to explain the behavior of some people who seem to be going to great lengths to gank or cheese Aldritch Faithful invaders. Almost like farming? I literally saw a guy hermiting out in the McDonnel basement and he had employed both friendly summons and enemy red phantoms to 5v1 people. So I ask, why?

You can find 4 Devout outside the Deacons Boss gate, 3 on the upper floor near were you first enter the Cathedral, and a few more scattered around the Cathedral.

For whoever's interested, here are some stats from my farming experience with devout of the deep right before aldrich's bonfire:Over 150 kills (50 times back to bonfire x 3 devout per run) I got the final 11 human dregs I needed for aldrich faithful rank 2;My drop rate should have been x4.4 normal - 440 item discovery (40 luck, dual-wield crystal sage's rapier, symbol of avarice, and covetous gold serpent ring +2);This means the drop rate for me was 11/4.4 = 2.5 drops at "normal" rate, so 2.5/150 = 1.666....%
It says slower way to farm Dregs from Aldrich's bonfire than taking elevator in Pontiff, NOT TRUE AT ALL, i spent 2 hours with covetous gold serpent ring +2, symbol of avarice and crystal sage rapier +5 killing all 9 Devout of the Deep just got only 1 Dreg. From Aldrich's bonfire in just 20 minutes (with same equipment) got my missing 8 Dregs.

After farming the Devout of the Deep for an hour whilst in the Blue Sentinels covenant I noticed that I wasn't getting any drops but after unequipping it I started getting them again. I would assume that being a Blade of the Darkmoon would also negate them from dropping.
Symbol of avarice, Gold covetous ring, hollow infused +10 shield, and rusty coin resulted in 316 item discovery for me (Assassin class, not a single point spent in luck).It took 52 times to make run for 3 enemies near Aldrich bonfire to get 9 dregs (no time estimation though). Should be enough for trophy hunters (10 dregs for sorcery).

Farmed 20 in about 1 - 1.5 hours. I used Aldrich's bonfire instead of Pontiffs as suggested in the article, as the run to the 3 standing outside of the gates felt much shorter than the run to the 9 in the courtyard from Pontiff's bonfire.Discovery rate of 307. Could kill about 6 a minute and I estimate I killed around 450, for a drop rate of about 1 Human Dregs every 22-23 kills.

I swear I had 9 then logged back in and only had 6. I accidentally disconnected my ps4 a little afterwards so maybe I lost progress?

What's the point of invading if you can farm them is dark souls 1 dark moon covenant all over again

Farmed these from the deacons near Water Reserve bonfire with item discovery rate 220, got a drop about every third run.

Drops from the blue priest in Anor Londo. They are located just before (boss) Aldrich's Chamber.

Me: "Hello gentlemen I would like the dark dregs from the very depths of your soul, please."
Deacons: "Oh, you want my clothes? Here, let me take off this robe, hold on..."
Me: "N-no, I just wanted the dregs-"
Deacon: "Got it, skirt too, here you go"
Me: "Uh"
