High Lord Wolnir
Defeat High Lord Wolnir


High Lord Wolnir is a massive skeleton covered in jewelry, of which the bracelets act as the hitbox of the boss. It is recommended to destroy the bracelets as quickly as possible to reduce the chances of the boss summoning his sword or army of skeletons. There are no NPC summons. Wolnir isn't optional and must be defeated in order to traverse further into Irithyll of the Boreal Valley.
・Irythyll of the Boreal Valley
Pontiff Salyvahn
Defeat Pontiff Salyvahn.


Pontiff Sulyvahn is a tall humanoid dressed in bejeweled sorcerer's robes. This boss is not optional and must be killed for access to part of Irithyll. Three NPCs can be summoned to help you in the fight against Pointiff Sulyvahn:
  • Black Hand Gotthard - in front of Sulyvahn's gate, summoning him will grant the "By My Sword" gesture.
  • Londor Pale Shade - can be summoned in front of a statue to the right when facing the boss fog, as long as the player has been following Yuria's and Yoel's questline, and gives the "Duel Bow Gesture" when summoned.
  • Anri of Astora - Their sign will be to the right (facing away from the fog door) in front of a statue. A seriously powerful summon for this fight, Anri is capable of nearly soloing Sulyvahn, as they’re capable of parrying him.

Lord of Cinder: Aldrich, Devourer of Gods
Defeat Aldrich, Devourer of Gods, Lord of Cinder.


Aldrich appears to the player as a dark mass of bones and flesh with the upper body of and garments similar to those worn by Gwyndolin in Dark Souls. Aldrich boss fight can be challenging to players of all skill levels. When avoiding Aldrich's attacks, it is recommended to roll away as opposed to blocking due to the erratic nature of his attacks. Anri of Astora can summon the player to their world for assistance with this boss fight if their questline has been fulfilled. I could recommend to fulfill her quest to practice Aldrich's moveset.

・Profaned Capital: Lord of Cinder
Lord of Cinder: Yhorm the Giant
Defeat Yhorm the Giant, Lord of Cinder.


Known as the "reclusive lord of the Profaned Capital", Yhorm is the descendant of an ancient conqueror, but was asked by the very people once subjugated to lead them. In the past, he was a skilled Giant combatant, powerful enough to become a lord of a city and a Lord of Cinder. During combat, attacks players massive machete that glows like embers after being brought down to a certain health threshold.

Due to the presence of a Storm Ruler that is absurdly powerful against Yhorm, he can be considered either the easiest or one of the hardest bosses in the game, depending on if one chooses on using this weapon. Seigward of Catarina could help you in this fight if you fulfilled his questline. After the fight you'll get armour set of Siegward, If you've not killed him earlier.

In the first phase you fight against Lorian, after you've killed him Lothric revives his brother and now on you're fighting against two of them. In the second phase your main goal to kill Lothric on the back of Lorian.

Two NPCs can be summoned to help you in the fight against Lothric and Lorian:

  • Sirris of the Sunless Realms - Summon can be found just in front of the fog door on the left. Take care not to let her take the brunt of the aggression as she can only heal herself three to five times during the fight and can easily be killed before the second phase actually begins, leaving you to solo the hardest part of the fight.
  • Orbeck of Vinheim - You must have given him all 4 Scrolls and have bought all the sorceries that he sells. Summon sign can be found to the left, at the top of the stairs before the double doors to the fog door

Optional Bosses
・Undead Settlement
Curse-rotted Greatwood
Defeat the Curse-rotted Greatwood.


The Curse-Rotted Greatwood is a giant tree with human-like limbs. It is covered in sacs that act as the hitbox of the boss. When the player encounters it, they will find a couple of undead in the arena that will fight alongside it during combat. After being brought down to a certain health threshold, instead of going through a transformation, the battle arena changes. This massive tree is filled with curses, and is the object of worship for the Undead Settlement's inhabitants. This boss is optional, but you can kill him to unlock Transposing kiln for Ludleth to be able transform souls of bosses into weapons.

You can find this Tree near the end of the Undead Settlement. Cliff Underside is the nearest bonfire after opening the shortcut door in front of the boss area.
・Smouldering Lake
Old Demon King
Defeat Old Demon King.


The Old Demon King is a large demon covered in flames and wields a giant hammer in combat. This boss is optional and not required to complete the game. Players with long-ranged builds will have an easier time dealing with this boss, however with patience, melee builds will be able to best the boss as well. Two NPCs can be summoned to help you in the fight against The Old Demon King:
  • Knight Slayer Tsorig - His summon sign becomes available by killing him after he invades. He will invade in the hallway before the collapsing rope bridge. Summon can be found next to the bonfire to the right of the fog gate.
  • A White Phantom Great Swamp Cuculus - The sign can be found at the bottom of the stairs directly in front of the fog gate. If you summon her and defeat the boss with her surviving, the Spotted Whip and Cornyx's set will appear where you first rescued Cornyx of the Great Swamp.
・Consumed King's Garden
Oceiros, the Consumed King
Defeat Oceiros, the Consumed King.


Oceiros is found in the garden below Lothric Castle, guarding a shrine. It can be assumed that he is blind (like Seath from DS1), as his eye sockets are empty, and he makes references to this throughout the fight.

His death is required to unlock secret locations and ending "The End of Fire".

You can summon Hawkwood, the Deserter to help you. His summon sign is located in the center of the platform before fighting the two Church Knights in front of the boss room. If you do not see his sign then you must first defeat the Abyss Watchers and afterwards talk to him in Firelink Shrine to receive the Farron Ring, you must also defeat the Crystal Sage and make sure that Hawkwood has left the shrine.
・Untended Graves
Untended Graves
Reach the Untended Graves.


Untended Graves is a hidden, optional area in Dark Souls 3. The area can be accessed via an illusory wall behind a chest after Oceiros, the Consumed King's boss room. The area is a replica of Cemetery of Ash, but shrouded in total darkness and occupied by different enemies.

The area where was ludex Gundyr now belongs to Champion Gundyr.


Champion Gundyr
Defeat Champion Gundyr.


Champion Gundyr is a different version of Iudex Gundyr, however he utilizes the same moveset as Iudex Gundyr with the addition of new attacks. He is much more aggressive than he was in the Cemetery of Ash. After being brought down to a certain health threshold, rather than undergoing a physical transformation, his eyes glow red and begins attacking the player much more aggressively.
Still most of his attacks are parryable, which makes fight against him, much easier.
・Archdragon Peak
Archdragon Peak
Reach Archdragon Peak.


To reach Archdragon Peak, you must obtain the Path of the Dragon Gesture from Consumed King's Garden, and make your way to Irithyll Dungeon, beside the location of the Dragon Stone Torso, where the petrified dragon acolyte is seated in a meditation like position. Stand on the rug to the left of the acolyte and perform the Path of the Dragon gesture. A cutscene will play and you will be transported to the cliffside.

Ancient Wyvern
Defeat Ancient Wyvern.


The Ancient Wyvern is a large grey wyvern, and it's boss fight is unique in that there is an additional way of killing it besides the regular hit-and-run tactic required for most bosses. Instead of fighting the wyvern head on, players can opt to run up the ruins, fighting regular enemies instead, to get high enough to deliver a plunging attack onto the dragon's head.

The Nameless King
Defeat Nameless King.


The Nameless King is an armored humanoid (which is probably a son of Gwyn, known before as a god of war) riding atop a blue wyvern and attacks players with his spear. During the first phase of the boss fight, his name is shown as "King of the Storm," until the wyvern he is riding is killed. This begins the second phase where his name changes to "Nameless King."

Players may find the fight against the Nameless King to be difficult, however, being familiar his moveset definitely makes it easier. There's no NPC summons.

Endings
To Link the First Flame
Reach "To Link the First Flame" ending.


To reach this ending you just need to beat the game and link the flame.


The End of Fire
Reach "The End of Fire" ending.


To reach this ending you need to find the Eyes of the Firekeeper in the Untended Graves. They're located in the dark version of Firelink Shrine in place where's Irina, behind illusory wall. After this you need to give them to the Firekeeper and exhaust her dialogue. Make sure to select "yes" when prompted. After killing Soul of Cinder instead of linking fire, you need to summon the Firekeeper.


The Usurpation of Fire
Reach "The Usurpation of Fire" ending.


To reach this ending you need to fulfill Yoel's questline. You can find Yoel at the beginning of location "Undead Settlement" on the ruined bridge among the others of his kind. To reach ending follow this steps:
  1. Request his "strength" by allowing him to level you up. Do this all five times. One level per two deaths. Must be done before killing the Abyss Watchers. Doing this will cause the door to the catacombs to open, and upon entering, kills off Yoel. This will cause a premature ending to the questline. Also NEVER cure your Hollowing by talking with the Firekeeper after obtaining Soul of the Firekeeper. The Purging stone and Velka Statue are safe to use, however. You should receive 5 dark sigils from him. Note: You can "cure" your hollowing via Purging Stone. This gives you your human appearance whilst keeping your dark sigils. This doesn't impact this path. So long as you DO NOT cure the dark sigil via Firekeeper.
  2. Find Anri of Astora at the Halfway Fortress bonfire. Exhaust all dialogue.
  3. Speak to them again at the Firelink Shrine after killing the Deacons of the Deep.
  4. Find Anri in the Catacombs of Carthus in a hallway next to the first rolling skeleton ball. Exhaust all dialogue.
  5. Choose dialogue option "no".
  6. Never tell Anri of Horace's whereabouts.
  7. Enter the Smouldering Lake and kill Horace in the cave.
  8. To find the cave, hug the right wall when entering the lake.
  9. Find Anri on the path near the wooden bridge before the High Lord Wolnir boss. Exhaust all dialogue.
  10. If you killed Horace beforehand, choose dialogue option "Tell Anri of Smouldering Lake", which will have Anri set up a gravestone for Horace.
  11. Otherwise, choose "say nothing". If Horace is still alive and you inform Anri of his whereabouts in Smouldering Lake, Anri will later be found dead.
  12. Find Anri at the Church of Yorksha fire. Exhaust all dialogue. DO NOT kill the pilgrim/assassin in the corner of the room disguised as a statue. (NOTE: Even after Anri leaves, the pilgrim/assassin may still be there disguised as one of the statues. Don't attack anything in that area until you have progressed past step 8 (wedding)).
  13. After killing Pontiff Sulyvahn, speak to Yuria at the Firelink Shrine. Exhaust all dialogue options using talk.
  14. If done correctly she will tell you your spouse awaits you at the Temple of the Darkmoon. (If she won't mention the wedding, try warping to the pontiff's bonfire and using that to warp back to Firelink Shrine).
  15. Perform the "wedding" ceremony in the Darkmoon tomb. The tomb is located behind a false statue in the room before the rotating tower to Anor Londo.
  16. Talk to the Pilgrim NPC and accept the sword. Use the sword on your spouse and receive 3 dark sigils. You should have 8 Dark Sigils by now.
  17. After talk to Yuria one last time at the Firelink Shrine, She will congratulate you on your ceremony and tell you to link the fire. (She will tell you to link the fire if you've put all four remains of Lords of Cinder and unlocked the final area even if you haven't performed the wedding rites with Anri; this does not mean you can skip the wedding rites).
  18. Kill the Soul of Cinder and touch the fire. Enjoy. (Do not summon the Firekeeper if you gave her the Firekeeper Eyes as it will activate the "End of the Fire" ending.)

@Doc idk about unlooted versions of rings, but I guess if you'll start NG+ you would be able to loot only NG+ version. About scaling I dont remember much, but i guess they dont scale that much.

I want to go into NG+ but I don't know how much it will scale after 3

If you go into NG+ can you still pick up the old versions of the rings?

@Penguin25, DLC is not required for achievements, it's just an additional content.

So DLC is not required for the 100% ?

Would be helpful if you included the name of the item and not just the picture in the "Master of Equipment" Achievements Table

Check once more. If you sure that you have all of them, then it's bugged. Probably to fix it you need to start NG+
