How to unlock the Gathering of Exiles achievement in DARK SOULS II - Definitive Guide

Note, if you want the NPC to travel to Majula, you have to exhaust all "talk" option.
Note 2, I thought it would be obvious that if you killed a NPC you would have to wait another playthrough, but I guess it wasn't that obvious. Do not kill the NPCs or you will fail the achievement for the current playthrough..

The NPC you have to find:

- Merchant Had Melentia, you find her in the Forest of Fallen Giants, Cardinal Tower bonfire to be exact.

- Cartographer Cale, you also find him in the Forest of Fallen Giants. After the Cardinal Tower bonfire, go down the ladder, go outside and instead of climbing the giant root, drop on your right, go up the ladder. Keep going until you reach a broken roof and jump on a platform with a single monster. Keep going for the mountain and you'll find the entrance. A boulder will be coming down, be careful. Go up the same way the boulder came and you'll find him. You'll get the Mansion key at the same time.

-Licia of Lindeldt, after killing the Dragonrider in Heide's Tower of Flame, go up and you'll find her and the bonefire for Tower of Flame.

-Carhillion of the Fold, you find him before going on the boat in No-Man's Wharf. Instead of going straight for the boat, go as far as you can on the right and you'll see him near a light. You need a minimum of 8 intelligence, without gear, if you want to speak to him.

-Rosabeth of Melfia, you find her at the entrance of Shaded Woods. She is petrified, use Fragrant Branch of Yore on her to make her normal. You can also get at the same time.

-Stone Trader Chloanne, you can find her in Harvest Valley, past the Poison Pool bonfire sitting on a rock.

-Laddersmith Gilligan, you'll find him in Earthen Peak. For this one it's kind of strange, I never talked to him, but after killing the old Iron King, he was already in town. According to user RazorPriest this is his location : Go up the stairs from the Central bonfire, through the door and go out on the ledge past the fence. If you follow it to the left, you'll find Gilligan, and you can pay him to build you a ladder down to a Pharrus' Lockstone. .

You find stone trader chloanne as soon as you enter harvest valley. Walk forward past the bonfire and she's straight ahead by the cliff. She's almost impossible to miss.

The guy in No-Mans Wharf requires a certain Intelligence to speak to him. It is somewhere between 7 and 18, because he wont talk to me at 7 but will talk to my friend at 18.

I'm already level 115 and have beaten most of the game, Ive been doing a Faith build.

I have 5 base INT and bought the +5 ring from Straid and Carhillion won't talk to me. SO it's either 11+ or 10 hard points.

I got the key from Cale but he has never shown up in Majula. Is that going to cause problems with this achievement? I didn't kill him for the record, not sure what happened.

Also, I exhausted his dialog options when I found him, and he is no longer in the cave anymore (just checked to be sure).

Carhillion only requires 8 INT to speak to you. I was at 6 and remember grinding 2 levels before going to see him again and then he spoke to me and relocated to Majula.

Ok I think I missed this one and will have to do a 2nd playthrough.
When I was at Earthen Peak I beat the boss without meeting Gilligan. He was not there when I went to look for him but was at Marjula and I bought a ladder from him. I think because I did not meet him at Earthen Peak it didn't count. Let me know if anyone else has this problem.

You might want to add that you cannot kill any of the villigers as it will make the achievement not pop. I had the butterfly suit on and it poisoned the blacksmith while talking with him, then he went hostile and I had to kill him. Now I have all the NPC's in the village and no achievement.

Accidentally shot Carhillion. Now he's aggro'd and shoots soul arrow at me. So am I screwed? Is it possible to get past him without killing him and beat the area and later get that sin absolved? Or, am I done?

This requires you to have 7 NPCs that are out in the world to go to Majula. For each one of them, you must exhaust all their dialogue, each will make some sort of reference about heading there.

Rosabeth of Melfia
She is the petrified NPC that is blocking the lever at the gate to the Shaded Woods. You will need a Fragrant Branch of Yore in order to bring her back to life. Also, you need to give her a piece of equipment from each section before she will go to Majula, unlocking a different trophy.

Merchant Hag Melentia

Found at the second bonfire in the Forest of the Fallen Giants.

Cale the Cartographer

At the same bonfire Merchant Hag Melentia is at, descend the ladder and head to the left (towards the two enemies). Enter the door on the left and head up the large tree root, dropping off onto a platform connected to the roof of a building. Jump across to the large platform on your left and make your way across until you see a ladder. To the left is a cave, beware of the large boulder that rolls down, but once it does, head up to the top and he will be there.

Carhillion of the Fold

Just before boarding the ship in No Man's Wharf, he will be sitting on an adjacent dock. You must have at least 9 INT for him to speak with you.

Licia of Lindelt

Located at the top of Heide's Tower of Flame, accessible after you defeat the Dragonrider boss.

Laddersmith Gilligan

Refer to this solution, as this NPC is related to another trophy:

Dont kill any of those 7 NPC's. If you do so, you won't be able to get this trophy on your current playthrough.

Question: Gilligan is in Majula now and I didn't see him in earthen peak. Am I screwed? I have all the others NPC.

I just saw that my trophy popped at the same time as Gilligan's legacy's and thus was not displayed. So if you didn't meet Gilligan in earthen peak first, you can still get the trophy.

In order to do this trophy you will have to get certain merchants and NPCs to pack up shop and move to Majula. It's a simple trophy that you get by simply spending some souls on the merchant's items and then exhausting all their dialogue options which is done by talking to them until they repeat their last lines over and over. The NPCs you will have to get to move are:

- Merchant Hag Melentia - She is at the Cardinal Tower bonfire in the Forest of Fallen Giants
- Cale the Cartographer - He is hidden away in a tree in Forest of Fallen Giants (See Curious Map for more details)
- Licia of Lindeldt - She is at the Tower of Flame bonfire after you beat the Dragonslayer in Heide's Tower of Flame
- Carhillion Of The Fold - He is located in No Man's Wharf right before you go down the walkway to board the ship you will see him sitting across from the boss ship. He is really uptight and won't talk to you unless you have 9 intelligence or more. I had to use a soul vessel to respec my character in order to talk to him and get him to move.
- Stone Trader Chloanne - She up the hill from the Poison Pool bonfire in Harvest Valley
- Laddersmith Gilligan - Simply beat Earthen Peak and he'll just show up in Majula, you don't even need to engage him at Earthen Peak.
- Rosabeth of Melfia - Give her any piece of equipment after you unpetrify her.

You need to get the following NPC characters to appear in Majula (speak to Sualden after you do so for a bonus item):

Merchant Hag Melentia - found in Cardinal Tower by the bonfire. Speak to her after you have killed the Last Giant and she will move to Majula.

Cale the Cartographer - found in the Forest of Fallen Giants. From the Cardinal Tower Bonfire go down the ladder and left at the bottom. Through the door at the end and halfway up the sloping tree, drop onto a lower wooden ledge from here and then again to the floor. Go up the ladder on the building nearby and then over the wooden bridge to a roof - from here you can do a running jump to a wooden platform ahead, and then drop down to another wooden platform that has the cave entrance. Watch out for the boulder trap and then speak to Cale at the top of the slope until he says he will go back to Majula.

Rosabeth - she is blocking the entrance to the Shaded Wood initially. Needs to be freed using a Fragrant Branch of Yore. Then speak to her until she repeats herself, and be sure to give her some new clothes and she will then move to Majula, at the bottom of the memorial near the bonfire.

Carhillion - found in No-Man's Wharf, on the docks by the ship you summon. You need at least 8 Int to speak with him, do so repeatedly and he will then move to Majula (under a tree looking out to sea).

Licia - found after the Dragonrider fight at the top of Heide's Flaming Tower. If you exhaust all conversation she will then move next to the contraption in the tunnels by Majula (same tunnel that led to Heide).

Stone Trader Chloanne - found sat on a rock as soon as you enter Harvest Valley. Speak to her until she says it is time for her to move on and she will go to Majula the next time you rest at a bonfire.

Laddersmith Gilligan - located on a ledge in Earthen Peak. From the second bonfire (the one behind a mist door) go up the stairs and smash the wooden railing in front of you. The go along the left hand ledge to find him. Buy his ladder here for 2,000 souls and make sure to exhaust all conversation. After the boss fight at the top of Earthen Peak (Mytha) he will then move to Majula.

Once ALL of the above are in Majula you should get an achievement the next time you warp there from another bonfire.

If you kill a girl at the rotunda through a "broken eye" Before the 6 above appear in the camp, you will not receive the achievement.

Cale Cartographer tends to glitch - for me it disappeared from the estate after visiting Drangleic. And in the postgame I cured it with the ember of enmity - I killed the skeletons again, and went to the Forest of Giants to get it.

The trophy is partly a story trophy. All that is required of the player is to talk to the NPCs that you meet during the passage. Just listen to all the dialogue options. Almost all sellers of things, including magician and pyromancy trainers, will move to Majula after talking with them. One way or another, after 5-6 new arrivals they will give out a trophy.
