What are benefits for playing as a human? | Basics Dark Souls Guide

Last update: 06 April 2023

In Dark Souls you can play as an Undead or as a Human. In order to turn into human, you have to consume at least one Humanity (an active Humanity indicator can be found in the upper left part of the screen) and select Reverse Hollowing option at any bonfire.

Playing as human gives you following elements

1) You can call for help NPC and other players more often. Just use the white sigh, which can be found mostly next to the arenas, where you fight with bosses.

2) You can encounter additional "attractions" - sometimes special NPC attack you or you can be a witness of other situations. In some cases this means obtaining several additional items.

3) If you have high Humanity level, your chance of item drops from enemies is higher. You can also increase defense against curse.

4) As a human you can light on the fire and obtain more Estus Flask.

Risks associated with playing as a human

1) Another players or NPC can attacks you - in such situation you have to fight with them or ... log off from the game or unplug the Internet.

As you can see, there are pros and cons of being human. You can gather Humanity needed to operate with this state in many ways: collecting it in game world, getting it from enemies, earning it for special actions (killing the boss, many enemies, other players, etc).
