I made a list of all the NPCs in the order I did them, just in case that might be helpful and you're worried you might miss something. NOTE that the game can be non linear, so this might be a bit different to you. Try to do each one ASAP and be mindful of the ones that say 'do this BEFORE..', because if you defeat an area boss before doing some of them, you miss your opportunity. Also note, this oversimplifies the game's progression, as you need to grab brands and keys etc.. 1. Knight (1/6) - Bandits Pass, on your way out of Festering Banquet. 2. Scarecrow (1/4) - Village of Smiles, right along the main path. Do this one BEFORE you beat the Queen of Smiles. 3. Knight (2/6) - Castle of Storms, left of sanctuary. Do this one BEFORE you beat the Kraekan Wyrm. 4. Thief (1/4) - Castle of Storms, continue on after the Kraekan Wyrm. 5. Scarecrow (2/4) - Castle of Storms, along the entrance path to the Red Hall of Cages. 6. Knight (3/6) - Red Hall of Cages, exit right from the sanctuary and keeping going until you find him. Do this BEFORE you beat the Tree of Men. 7. Thief (2/4) - Red Hall of Cages, deeper down into the area, wait until you see the Wheel Elevators and do a nearby walljump. Do this BEFORE you beat the Tree of Men. 8. Sorcerer (1/3) - Ziggurat of Dust, atop the area, after beating the Dried King, gives you the Dart Brand. 9. Knight (4/6) - Hager's Cavern, above the sanctuary. Drop down, or use the Hardlight brand. Do this BEFORE you beat the Disemboweled Husk. 10. Thief (3/4) - Hager's Cavern, top right of the area. Say YES to her question. Do this BEFORE you beat the Disemboweled Husk. 11. Thief (4/4) - The Far Beach. Defeat the Disemboweled Husk, and she'll move here. Go talk to her ASAP for the trophy. 12. Scarecrow (3/4) - Ziggurat of Dust, at the bottom, after defeating the Bloodless Prince. 13. Sorcerer (2/3) - Ruined Temple, right after beating the Coveted boss, a darting walljump required. Do this BEFORE you beat the Witch of the Lake boss. 14. Knight (5/6) - Ruined Temple, continuing on after the Coveted boss, going down until you see him at a crossroads. Do this BEFORE you beat the Carsejaw the Cruel boss. 15. Knight (6/6) - The Pitchwoods, after defeating Carsejaw the Cruel, you'll find him at the end. Talk for trophy. 16. Sorcerer (3/3) - The Shivering Shore. He'll return to the starting point of the game after you defeat The Witch of the Lake boss in Siam Lake. When you beat her, talk to him there and you'll get the trophy. 17. Scarecrow (4/4) - Crypt of the Dead Gods. Continue on after beating the Architect and Unskinned bosses, you'll find him near the entrance to this area. After talking to him here, he'll appear in the final area after beating The Nameless God. PS+ save if you're going to, and talk to him and grab the helm to get the ending and the trophy. This is essentially how I worked through it when I was working with text-only guides. I hope it helps you make sense of things.
Dude98 Stench Most Foul follows after the Husk but his fight is more of a detour. You can go straight to the Far Beach by pretty much heading as far right as you can, and shouldn't really need anything for her.
+PurpleGermanShepard No problem! I got confused a bit having to follow text-only guides I found on the internet, and it was frustrating that no one had made a video guide for these NPCs, so I thought I'd go and make them myself! Glad to be of help.
Listen Please tell me why I did not appear in the Red Hall of cells? This is due to the fact that I went to the place Where it is only after the boss's murder?
+JHogan8327 Unfortunately yeah, some bosses are your cut off points for talking to the NPCs. See my list (available as a comment on these videos) to see what these are.
+JHogan8327 Cool beans! Happy hunting. That list might not cover EVERY cut off point, but as long as you do everything on the list ASAP you'll be fine.
Have a look at my list (available as a comment on this video), have you broken the order in some way? Beaten a boss before you met them? That's usually what causes them not to be there. That, or the game not recognising a boss you need to beat first as dead, which is a rare glitch.
I'm actually not sure what saying no does in regards to this quest, I just remember putting it in the video because I saw it on a guide I was following. Try continuing the quest as usual, so kill the husk and go to the far beach and see if she's there. If she isn't, you've unfortunately ended the quest by saying no, and you'll have to do another playthrough.
You mean the 'Devoted' one? This is to max out devotion to a creed. Pick your favourite, put a stone leader down in a sanctuary, and talk to the dude. Do his grindy fetchquests and you'll get upgrades, and when you do all of them you'll get the trophy. Note that changing creeds resets devotion, but going into NG+ does not.

You said go to the thief ASAP, is it possible to get to her before defeating that stench most foul? Because they are in the way to the far beach.
Stench Most Foul isn't in the way to getting to the Far Beach, but no I don't believe killing him will affect this quest.
+FMJInertia Alright, thanks!
Dude98 Stench Most Foul follows after the Husk but his fight is more of a detour. You can go straight to the Far Beach by pretty much heading as far right as you can, and shouldn't really need anything for her.
yooooo thanks for this list.. use it these last two days to finally get this done!
Thanks a lot for the video. Short and straigth to the point.
Was up till 3 getting past where I was on My 9 hr playthrough and got to the cavern and hadn't done the one right before it so frustrating 😤
Thanks a lot for this guide
Glad to help!
Thanks! These are very helpful. :)
+PurpleGermanShepard No problem! I got confused a bit having to follow text-only guides I found on the internet, and it was frustrating that no one had made a video guide for these NPCs, so I thought I'd go and make them myself! Glad to be of help.
if i lost the part 3/4 of the npc of this video, i lost theachievement, or something else?
Damn,naked with greatsword is much easier.Then why did I invest so many points into heavy armor?
Listen Please tell me why I did not appear in the Red Hall of cells? This is due to the fact that I went to the place Where it is only after the boss's murder?
So if I miss any of these, can I go back or if you progress passed certain boss it renders them inactive?
+JHogan8327 Unfortunately yeah, some bosses are your cut off points for talking to the NPCs. See my list (available as a comment on these videos) to see what these are.
+FMJInertia Awesome, that is exactly what I needed! Many thanks!!
+JHogan8327 Cool beans! Happy hunting. That list might not cover EVERY cut off point, but as long as you do everything on the list ASAP you'll be fine.
thanks for the great vids very helpful
this trophy is bugged on epic games?
The Thief and the knight are not in the cavern :(

I had to beat The Tree of Men. Thanks for your helpful and amazing list.
I said no to her question. Can I fix this?
I'm actually not sure what saying no does in regards to this quest, I just remember putting it in the video because I saw it on a guide I was following. Try continuing the quest as usual, so kill the husk and go to the far beach and see if she's there.

How do I get the devout trophy?
You mean the 'Devoted' one? This is to max out devotion to a creed. Pick your favourite, put a stone leader down in a sanctuary, and talk to the dude. Do his grindy fetchquests and you'll get upgrades, and when you do all of them you'll get the trophy. Note that changing creeds resets devotion, but going into NG+ does not.
Okay, man, I'm going to do this. 👍
