How to unlock the Brilliant Covenant achievement in DARK SOULS II: Scholar of the First Sin - Definitive Guide

To get this you must pray at a broken statue in Harvest Valley to join the Heirs of the Sun covenant.

From the second bonfire continue onwards as if going to Earthen Peak. Just after you cross a small bridge over the poison mist there is a path leading to the left. Follow this all the way and you will enter a cave, within which is the statue.

Note: you do not need to join for the achievement to pop, you must simply reach the decision window (join: yes/no).

For this trophy, you must join the Heirs to the Sun covenant. This is accomplished by kneeling at the statue in the Harvest Valley. Go to the area just before the building leading to the Covetous Demon, where you see two Dark Magic Giants in the poison mist pool. Cross the bridge where the hammer guy is and go left along the path until you reach the statue. Simply kneel at the statue to join the covenant.

No Vale da Colheita, na segunda fogueira (As minas), siga reto e vire a primeira direita, novamente virando a direita. Você irá dar de cara com uma enorme névoa venenosa ao chão, avance pela esquerda atravessando a pequena ponte e ao avisar uma entrada com vários potes, note que haverá um caminho estreiro entre uma parede e o buraco com a névoa venenosa. Siga esse caminho estreiro que no fim dele terá uma estátua, onde você poderá se juntar ao pacto.

PLEASE NOTE, YOU DO NOT NEED TO JOIN A COVENANT TO GET THE ACHIEVEMENT – JUST HAVE THE OPTION TO: Examine the broken Sunlight shrine in Harvest Valley, hidden to the left side of the large building with windmill on it (Earthen Peak) along a small path that is over the poison mist pit with two Dark Giants in it. Watch out for the sickle enemy on your way there. You will need to get Rank 3 in this covenant for a spell and can also learn a gesture here.

Before entering the Earthen Peak location, you need to turn left and walk along the path. It will lead you to a broken statue. This is the entrance to the covenant of the Sun.

If you decide to max this covenant offline , then take heart. Farming Sun Medals is the most difficult (tedious) process in the entire game (I mean getting the Master of Miracles trophy, because at the third rank in this covenant the required spell will drop).

I checked it on NG. Even when wearing things to search for objects (the best ones, such as the symbol of greed), this process takes 2-3 hours of running around in a circle in the location. It might even be better to go online if that’s not for you.

Location : Brightstone Bay-Tseldora
Covenant : Society of Champions (to prevent mobs from despawning)

Appear in a location, run to the nearest archer on the tower, and destroy it. A couple more falconers run up and you kill them. Go to the tent to the left, there is 1 falconer. And that's it - back to the fire, with your legs (faster than using a bone or feather). After a rest, the archer's tower does not appear , it is easier to kill him. With this mini-race you will kill 4-5 falconers in 1-2 minutes. Killing the ranged archer and the hill archer is too time consuming. It is better to respawn nearby mobs than to run to distant ones. Scream's pyromancy helped a lot to immediately kill the first archer and falconer (plus the annoying pigs). I also noticed that approximately 50% of the medals fell from the first archer (I don’t know if it’s true or a coincidence).

PS I also checked it on the caretakers in the acidic zone - in half an hour of farming there, 1 medal fell out there - plus I often died. I also checked to the left of the fork in Dark Forest - 0 medals fell there in half an hour. In the Bay, everything is much better with this. Patience, just patience

In the Harvest Valley, after the bridge over the poisonous miasma before the entrance to Earthen Peak, turn left and go along the wall to the end. We find ourselves in a small cave, where we find an altar.

It is not necessary to join, the main thing is to receive an offer to join. They will give you the achievement anyway. This applies to all covenants.
