Here is Idlehands88 process for manually modding the save:

1. Rest at a bonfire, then Quit the game.
2. Extract your DRAKS0005 file from your USB.
3. Open the DRAKS0005 file in Horizon or Modio and click the Contents tab.
4. Extract the USER_DATA that your character is stored in, then close your DRAKS0005 file.
5. Open both the USER_DATA and DRAKS0005 in Hex Workshop.
6. Edit the USER_DATA first (DON'T FIX THE CHECKSUM YET).
7. Go to your DRAKS0005 and Search for your characters name (make sure to click the Unicode String box).
8. Make sure you find your name with your stats above the name (there should be 3 of your name in the DRAKS0005 file).
9. Copy/Paste the edited info from USER_DATA to DRAKS0005.
10. Go back to USER_DATA and copy the Checksum and search for it in the DRAKS0005 file.
11. Calculate the Checksum of USER_DATA and replace the old Checksum in DRAKS0005 with the new one.
12. Save, Rehash and Resign the save and replace it back on your USB (DON'T ADD THE USER_DATA BACK INTO THE DRAKS0005 FILE).

How to edit Items and stuff.
First buy a Known ID for a item, weapon, armor or ring. Then look for that value say 00000118 - Repair Powder. Using the 40000000 + will make he search look like 4000000000000118. Then next 4 bytes is the amount u will have 1 so it will be 400000000000011800000001. Change the 01 to 63 and you will have 99 of them.
40000000 + (id) for Items and Key Items and spells
00000000 + (id) for weapons, shields, and armors
2000000000 + (id) for rings

Thanx to diggla
how to enable all warp bonfirest:
1) You have to give yourself the lordvessel by replacing an existing key and change the amount.
2) Goto address 0x0001F13E in USER_DATA and change the value to FF
40000000000009CE - Lordvessel

USER_DATA Offsets 0x00000303 to 0x00000311
store the amount of items you have given to the covenants.
if you max it out or make it 0x50 (80 dec) you will receive
the highest covenant rank +3. covenant items are
only given to you when you just joined the covenant at
the related NPC or for higher ranks ->
donate 1 item just before the next rank up
(at 9 items, 29 and 79 items).

rank 1 = 10 items
rank 2 = 30
rank 3 = 80

For starters Turk645 found and figured out the checksum. I've posted a few bookmarks for the USER_DATA for all stats before the game came out. Thank to krispin149 for testing save since I didn't have the game. Book mark in attached
