Location and loot
| Name | Location | Condition |
|---|---|---|
| Old Hunter Father Gascoigne | Cleric Beast in Central Yharnam : Summoned by the fountain past the burning effigy the townsfolk gather around. (Note: This is now the ONLY place he can be summoned from, as they removed the location by the Central Yharnam lamp behind the shortcut door. He will use Silencing Blank if you enter the sewer. | This works before you initiate Father Gascoigne 's boss battle, but after you start the boss battle against him, he can no longer be summoned for this fight. |
| Old Hunter Alfred | Cleric Beast in Central Yharnam : Summoned by the Gilbert's House down the stairs shortcut from Central Yharnam lamp. Blood-starved Beast in Old Yharnam : Found in the courtyard right before the boss battle. His summon sign will be on the bottom of the stairs as you enter the courtyard. | You must have spoken to Alfred and agreed to cooperate with him. If you open all gates in Cathedral Ward , Alfred moves to his new position outside the Forbidden Woods , his summon signs disappear and won't be available for both boss fights. |
| Old Hunter Henriett | Vicar Amelia in Cathedral Ward : Go straight from the Cathedral Ward lamp, up the stairs, through the gate (must have unlocked gate first to take this route), and she will be straight ahead, near the ladder leading up to the body with 6 Numbing Mists . There are a lot of enemies in this area, so unless you clear them out first, the two of you will have a lot of fighting to do before you ever even get to Vicar Amelia . She cannot enter Oedon Chapel itself. | Two main area gates have to be open in order to summon Henriett |
| Old Hunter Henryk Confederate | Shadow of Yharnam in Forbidden Woods : Along the wall at the intersection leading to the boss area. Rom, the Vacuous Spider in Byrgenwerth : On the second floor, between two couches near the treasure chest. | He will not appear unless you have defeated him at the Tomb of Oedon ( also Eileen has to survive the fight as part of her quest line ) and are wearing the " Impurity " rune. |
| Younger Madaras Twin Confederate | Shadow of Yharnam in Forbidden Woods : In the corner of the small gated area opposite the boss room, to the left of the corpse in front of the giant tombstone holding the " Clockwise Metamorphosis " rune. Rom, the Vacuous Spider in Byrgenwerth : Right next to the Byrgenwerth lamp. Walk off the little ledge, and it’ll be on that plateu with you, nestled between two trees. | You cannot summon him if you have already killed him outside the Small Windmill or are not wearing the " Impurity " rune. |
| Mensis Scholar Damian | Rom, the Vacuous Spider in Byrgenwerth : In plain view outside the boss room. Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos in Altar of Despair : In plain view in the hallway connecting the elevator to the Altar of Despair . Kill the Celestial Child first, or they may bite Damian and make him lose A LOT of health from frenzy damage. | Bear in mind that summoning him will prevent you from being able to summon Henryk or the Younger Madaras Twin in Byrgenwerth , but his habit of spamming the Choir Bell makes him well worth the tradeoff. |
| Defector Antal | Darkbeast Paarl in Old Yharnam : When you drop down onto the narrow fenced path leading to Darkbeast Paarl , take a right to reach this summon point. The One Reborn in Yahar'gul, Unseen Village : Summon sign is behind the last carriage before the fog gate, on the left. He can't take the shortcut lift. | You can only summon either Antal or Yamamura to assist you, not both simultaneously. |
| Yamamura the Wanderer Confederate | Darkbeast Paarl in Old Yharnam : In plain sight along the path to the Graveyard of the Darkbeast after dropping from the cave exit. The One Reborn in Yahar'gul, Unseen Village : Behind a carriage on the left side of the road a short distance before the boss room. | In order to summon Yamamura for this fight, you must first kill him in the Hunter's Nightmare and equip the " Impurity " rune. You can summon either Yamamura or Antal to assist you in battle against Darkbeast Paarl and The One Reborn , but not both simultaneously. |
| Name | Location | Condition |
|---|---|---|
| Yamamura the Wanderer Confederate | Living Failures in Research Hall : In plain view immediately to the right of the boss room entrance. | In order to summon him you must first kill him in the Underground Cells area and equip the " Impurity " rune. |
| Old Hunter Henriett | Ludwig the Accursed in Hunter's Nightmare : Down the stairs from the Nightmare Church Lamp, directly to the left of the stairwell exit. | Summoning Henriett prevents you from being able to summon the two Confederate hunters in this area and vice versa. |
| Younger Madaras Twin Confederate | Ludwig the Accursed in Hunter's Nightmare : At the end of the semi-hidden path in the Bloody Plaza where the first Nightmare Executioner (Axe) approaches from. ( Butcher Set ) | The summon point will only be there if you haven't already killed him in the Forbidden Woods , are wearing the " Impurity " rune, and have not summoned Old Hunter Henriett. |
| Valtr Confederate | Ludwig the Accursed in Hunter's Nightmare : Along the right wall directly opposite the Eye Collector as you approach the boss room, slightly obscured behind the terrain. Laurence, the First Vicar in Hunter's Nightmare : In plain sight just inside the door of the Grand Cathedral. | You must not have killed Valtr in the Forbidden Woods . You must be equipped with the " Impurity " rune and have not summoned Old Hunter Henriett. Must have obtained Laurence's Skull from the altar elevator. |
Note : When you summon Valtr , he will appear wearing his helmet and will be identified as "Valtr, Master of the League" until you have completed his quest and obtained the Master's One-Eyed Iron Helm . From this point onward he will be summoned as "Valtr, Beast Eater" and will appear without his helmet. He is stronger as "Beast Eater" so it's worth completing his quest before summoning him for these fights.
