    To reach this ending, you have to go through the Untended Graves (an optional area beyond the Consumed King's Garden) to reach an alternate, dark version of Firelink Shrine. Go to where the Irina of Carim usually would be and break an illusory wall to obtain the Eyes of a Fire Keeper.

    Give this item to the Firekeeper at normal Firelink Shrine. After defeating the final boss, do not touch the bonfire. Instead, use the summon sign that appears to summon the Firekeeper, resulting in the ending for this achievement.

    IMPORTANT! If you kill the Firekeeper after summoning her, you will get a different ending that isn't tied to an achievement.

    incubus664You have to get to the end of NG++ to get for one achievement, so you may as well do one ending for each.

    CorleoneGangIt's possible to get all 3 endings on one playthrough if you can get a friend to drop all the rings for the "Master of Rings" achievement and then do the cloud trick at the end of the game to get all 3 ending achievements. You also have to have enough souls to heal your dark sigils for the 3rd ending or this won't work. Yes, you can get the proper bow gesture on the Usurpation of Fire run as I just did it. Sirris questline has nothing to do with the Usurpation of Fire ending.

    After killing the Soul of Cinder, I quit the game from the Dark Souls menu and then also quit the game from the Xbox Dashboard. This will obviously save your game before you make your final decision. I reloaded the game and then interacted with the First Flame to get the Usurpation of Fire ending. As soon as that achievement pops hit the Xbox Button then scroll to Dark Souls III and hit the menu button and go to Manage game & add-ons > Saved data > Delete all. This will delete your save from the console only (THIS IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THAN THE "DELETE EVERYWHERE" OPTION, WHICH YOU DO NOT WANT TO SELECT). Reload game again and let it sync with Xbox Live and then warp back to Firelink Shrine and give "Eyes of a Firekeeper" to Firekeeper and Return to First flame and Summon Firekeeper using summon sign on ground (DO NOT interact with First Flame) to get the "End of Fire" Achievement. As soon as that achievement pops hit the Xbox Button then scroll to Dark Souls III and hit the menu button and go to Manage game & add-ons > Saved data > Delete all. Load game back up again and warp back to Firelink Shrine and give Soul of a Firekeeper to Firekeeper and pay Firekeeper in souls to heal your dark sigils then warp back to First Flame, interact with First Flame to get the "To Link the First Flame" ending achievement, which is the 3rd ending achievement on one playthrough.

    I just did this, so I know this works, but you have to be quick with the "dashboarding" after each achievement pops.

    HashmapI would make sure you know what your doing if you are trying what CorleoneGang did. The cloud only had a save from a week ago despite playing it every day this week. My lvl 110 character is now lvl 59 and is about 1/2 way through my first playthrough. I might have quit too late because the achievement notification never popped and I deleted when it asked me if I wanted to start NG+. Oh well.

    Nicrotixanyone else have this achievement glitch?
    Posted by Nicrotix on 10 Jul 23 at 01:31
    Sabanata@Nicrotix Yep just glitched today. Had a ton of the boss achievements glitch but having this one glitch is annoying because it means a whole other playthrough needs to be done.
