How to unlock the Covenant: Aldritch Faithful achievement

    This covenant can be discovered in the area just beyond the Pontiff Sulyvhan boss room (right before Anor Londo).

    Cross through this large, open area which contains several giants and mages and enter the building ahead. Rather than climb the steps inside this building, go the back left corner and attack an illusory wall to reveal a ladder leading down.

    The room below contains two Sulyvahn's beasts and Archdeacon McDonnell, the NPC for the covenant. I suggest aggroing one of the beasts with an arrow to fight them individually. When it's safe, interact with Archdeacon McDonnell to "discover" the covenant:

    F3arIn0culumI recommend playing hide and seek with the last dog by using one of the pillars. Worked like a charm.

    Aco2148117This was glitched for me too, after reading some things I found out it’s recommended you are online within Dark Souls III for it to unlock. It didn’t unlock for a few hours but then unlocked overnight while I was asleep.

    Molitor5901This unlocked for me the moment I beat the final boss (Soul of Cinder). Now I have a new issue with Master of Pyromancy - this didn't unlock, beat the final boss again for a different ending, STILL not unlocked. Took ages to get those stupid Vertabrae Shackles...

    Ich Bin VieleFor me, the achievement suddenly unlocked at the very beginning of NG+.

    GartoofaTo add to this, it didn't unlock for me at the normal place nor at NG+ but it did unlock for me at the beginning of NG++ after the end of the initial cutscene WHICH I DID NOT SKIP.

    I may have skipped this at the end of NG+ so if this has glitched for you, I would highly recommend putting your controller down and not skipping the cutscene at the beginning of NG and waiting to see if this unlocks!
