White Sign Soapstone | Dark Souls 3 Wiki

Some advice for hosts: If you're summoning a player you are usually better off not summoning any available NPCs along with them. For the most part the NPCs do very little damage but do count as phantoms and buff the boss's health, their damage is usually not worth that extra health. Summoning another player does increase the boss's health as well but a human is (usually) able to do enough damage that it isn't as big of a deal. It's your world and I put my sign down offering to help so I'll give it my best shot but against a boss like the Dragon Armor for example it's a very tough fight with the two NPCs there doing almost nothing.

I've had more than enough of this selfish, disgusting behavior hosta of embers usually have, and the bad reputation the gave to the whole community. If i ever summon a white, it will be to give purples free shackles.

Submit

If you summoned someone to help you be considerate and skip the cutscenes, that guy has probably been grinding for hours and watching these cutscenes a million times drives anyone insane

I know i'm gonna sound like rochelle from "everybody hates chris", but someone gotta tell it and no one with a name has the balls, so this anonymous will have to do: the "invaders are just entering into my world" excuse whenever you get squashed by that time your summon didn't arrive in time is hypocritical to say the least. This is NOT your world. Your name isn't in the lands. You didn't sculpt these mountains. You didn't place a single brick in lothric's castle. You are owed sht. Everything you have was either stolen from a person, pillaged from corpses or bought from a merchant, and the only things you do own are those you were buried with. That red/purple phantom ain't invading "your" world, he's for one of the many embers you killed other people for. So stop crying out for that false innocence of yours and take the L like an adult.

Out of the three souls games this one babysits players the most qnd they still need 3 phantoms to get away from the bonfire smh.

I'm beginning to think miyazaki got repeatedly ganked and humiliated by forest hunters in darkroot garden, and nowadays he's still venting his pstd with invaders.

Submit

can you put your summon sign in front of a boss that usually does not have any npc summon signs?
for example:yhorm the giant

Submit

I cant remember the last time someone summoned me for a boss fight, i enjoyed that in DS1 :/

Submit

If you use this, you stop playing dark souls.

Submit

can you be summoned as a mound maker if you use the soapstone

Submit

After trying to be an Aldrich Faithful for a bit, I now completely understand why the community hates people that summon phantoms so much. Getting ganked isn’t fun

Submit

So is this the item to use if you want to re-fight a boss like NK or Champ? Or is there a better way to do it?

Submit

I guess this item will gather dust in my inventory. I prefeer to be summoned in ds1, dd2 and bloodborne, but the hosts already has an absurd amount of advantages here.

Basically i' m not helping the host to progress, im just doinh his job on his behalf. Whenever i' m gone after completing my task, he will still be a newbie.

Bosses get 1.5x HP with 1 Phantom, and 50% increased aux resistances.
They get 2x HP for 2 phantoms, 10% increased damage, and 100% increased aux resistances.
They get 2.3x HP for 3 phantoms, 15% increased damage, and 150% increased aux resistances.

Other enemies get smaller bonuses. These bonuses are mutually exclusive and don't stack.

The abuse of this object in every corner of the game makes me wish world tendency was implemented here.

Submit

What is the level range for this summon? is it same as invasion?

Submit

still wondering if putting this down while your embered still allows you to get invaded or not

Submit

The only honest way to use this item is to be summoned as a mad spirit. Kill all the mobs in the map and then challenge the host to see if he deserves to progress (always carry force in case the host summons phantoms)

Submit

So, I was not connected to WiFi when I defeated the twin princes resulting in me not gaining the achievement. If I defeat the boss when summoned by a white soapstone will I get the achievement then? I know it’s kind of a strange question.

Is there a reason why i have to use a dried finger to see a second white sign in an area? It says the max white phantoms possible is 3, but i only seem to be able to get one, then use a dried finger to be able to get a second. Before i summon the first one i can see like 8 other signs on the ground so i know it isnt just a dead area. Anyone else have this issue?

Submit

If you like CO-OP to flight bosses, then you can try the following meta level: 1) Level 68-72: Aldrich, Dancer and Sister Friede. Weapon level +8, special weapon +4, don't over upgrade your weapon to max. 2) Level 95-103: Twin Princes, Soul of Cinder, Nameless King, Demon Prince, Midir and Gale 3) Level 103+: Demon Prince, Midir and Gale

Submit

Secondary function for the soapstone: early invasion warning system. If there's an incoming invasion attempt, the soapstone will turn gray like in other cases when it's not available but it happens far before you get the notification that you have been invaded. I'm fairly certain that this happens even when the invasion connection fails for one reason or another which makes keeping an eye on the soapstone sometimes interesting in places like the Aldrich Faithful area. If you see the soapstone turn gray and then pop back unrelated to your location then it probably means an invasion failed. On the other hand, if you're in an invasion queue yourself, the soapstone turning gray may also indicate you're about to try an invasion yourself.

It would be nice to add "Summoner's area Boss must be alive to be able to summon via white signs"
Because we struggled A LOT with a firend before we realised that. And in some area (like smouldgering lake) you can rush the boss quite quickly then explore later (if you have little playtime for example)

What I used to do when I was still a noob at like 10 hrs, on bosses like abyss watchers I used to summon a random scrublord in lothric knight armor and watch them get massacred by the boss so I could learn the boss's moveset and then of course the boss was at pretty much full health so I would win like first try everytime. I then proceeded to grow a pair and own all of the bosses. Shoutout to the countless sunbabies and casul sadbois that helped me learn the ds3 ropes. [T]/

One thing this page should mention and fails to is that there is no level cap for being summoned if you and a friend have a password set up. Meaning regardless if you're level 200+ you can still help your noob friends out. The downside? You get HEAVILY nerfed in terms of health, focus, and stamina. You might also open them to invasions by higher level players (Still testing this at this time. My friend and I were invaded 4 times while playing and one guy was using the Quakestone hammer and one was a pyromancer with a spell from later game. Unsure if they were players who deliberately kept a low soul level and got carried through or if they were high level players)

Submit

Also if you beat the boss in an area, you won't be able to summon any more white phantoms in that area!

It's interesting co-op to help players fight the bosses, especially the Nameless King.
Give it a try at around SL90 - SL105, you can easy get summoned near Great Belfry bonfire.
You will encounter players carried with Dragonslayer Greatshield or Havel's Greatshield, with UGS or Great Hammer, and as naked as Sword Master !
Some casters can do a lot damage with their spells, but can't tank 2 hits from Nameless King, you have to tank for them, otherwise they won't make it.
Some players like to summon 3 phantoms and then attract 2 invaders. usually invaders are good players, I suck in PvP, always failed to protect the host. :)
After boss killed, some players quickly put the Mimic box into their head to get more soul, funny !
Full Catarina Set, Catarina Set, Undead Legion Set and Lorian's Armor Setare are common. Sometime you can see full Lothric Knight Set, Silver Knight Set, Black Knight Set, cool !
(rare) You You will encounter hackers, they rush in as an invincible invader, they cast the spells you have never seen before and then kill you.
(rare) You You will encounter traps, the invader wear the ring pretend as white phantom, sit there wait for you. Make sure try the lock after get summoned, if you get a lock, then prepare for the fight.
The most memorable fight was with a bow-guy, in Nameless King phase 2, he stayed away from Nameless King, and then started to shoot with bow, I managed to lure Nameless King around circle, and let him made the hits.
I was surprised we could co-op so well to form a tank-range to fight the Nameless King.

If i summon somebody using a summon sign, will the person be a phantom, or a second host of embers? There have been times where i summoned both from different white summon signs. Also, when I invade other worlds, I have seen people labeled as a "phantom" or i have seen multiple "host of ember"s. What determines a phantom of host of embers?
