How to Save Solaire from INSANITY

ah hello you don't look hollow far from it greeting souls fans and welcome to rob teaches dark souls today we will be learning how to save solaire from his inevitable fate of going insane after fighting the sunlight maggot in lost izalith additionally you will learn a very useful farming route for humanities and souls as we will need them to access a shortcut later in the game but

more on that in a few we begin here on the undead parish bridge where we find solaire for the first time as he offers us the opportunity to engage in jolly cooperation following the taurus demon boss fight make sure to fully exhaust his dialogue before your date with the hell kite drake on the bridge next we find solaire in the first room on the left once entering the anor londo cathedral

enjoy the warm fillings of the bonfire and solaire's coy flirting as you exhaust his dialogue once again you really are fond of chatting with me aren't you if i didn't know better i think you had feelings for me oh no hear me pretend you didn't hear that before heading to a lost izalith you can find solaire back in the sunlight altar in the undead

parish but it is not required to advance his storyline here he will offer you the opportunity to join the warriors of sun covenant as long as you have leveled up your faith to at least 25.

finally you meet solaire after the centipede demon boss fight and find him disillusioned do not progress any further at this point before the fire sage demon boss fight there is a path to the right which leads to a door that is locked by some contraption this is a shortcut that leads to the bet of chaos boss fight bypassing most of lost izalith and it can be opened by joining the daughters of chaos covenant

but before we do that we need to ensure that we have 30 humanity from the depths bonfire there is a very useful farming route that i'm showing here which will quickly gain you 30 humanity from the rats and the sewers this route can be done when you first are going through the depths but it's actually faster later in the game because you have likely upgraded your stats and weapons additionally it's recommended

that you go ahead and have your humanity level at 10 for the increased drop rate you can also equip the covetous gold serpent ring found in since fortress if you have it the run should yield an average of one humanity but on this run i was actually able to collect three continue doing the run until you have 30 humanity total and don't worry about any poison or anything else you can

actually complete the entire run while poisoned and have no problem getting back to the bonfire now that you have your 30 humanity in hand head back to see quail egg's sister the fair lady which can be found just after quailag's boss fight behind an illusionary wall join the covenant and offer 30 humanity to deepen your allegiance and raise the covenant to plus

two now the shortcut is unlocked allowing access to the bridge above lost izalith open the door and immediately kill the chaos bugs and collect the sun like maggot solaire's false sun this will prevent him from finding it and save him from going insane sadly it does not help him with his ultimate problem but he does now offer one final jolly cooperation against lord gwyn

i like to think of this as retaliation against the lord of sunlight for the false hope if you've learned something today consider hitting that like button as it'll help others who are looking to learn how to save solaire find this video too let me know if there are any other problems that you would like for me to help you with in the comments below
