Overview[]
Covenants are factions which you are able to join upon reaching Level 10.
In each covenant, there are different ways to progress through ranks. Upon reaching certain milestones you will be granted Skills and Soul Points.
Currently, there are 4 covenants.
Blades of the World[]
Blades of the World (aka The Blades) is a wealth focused covenant available in The Desert.
Obtainment[]
The Obtainment is extremely easy. From the Desert Ruins' main building, keep straight until you reach the Elementalist Trainer. There will be a large cliff with a small path leading downwards, follow that path and enter the first opening you see, follow the middle path and you'll reach the Blades of the World hideout.
Progression[]
You can increase your covenant rank by taking requests for the guild or donating money.
NOTE: You can only increase your Covenant rank from guild requests using the board in the Blades Hideout. Other guild request boards will NOT work.
There are currently 3 Ranks of donations; 250, 375, 875.
| Total Cost | Requests | Rewards | Covenant Ranks | Soul Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
