Farm souls in Anor Londo
A repeatable route through Silver Knights turns Anor Londo’s palace enemies into souls for levels, purchases, and upgrades.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Farm souls in Anor Londo
Palace area of Anor Londo, using the bonfire reached near the entrance to the palace as a base.
Before you go
- Reach Anor Londo and activate a nearby bonfire.
- Carry a weapon, spell, or defensive setup that works against Silver Knights.
- Optional: equip the Covetous Silver Serpent Ring for additional souls per kill.
Farming steps
- Rest at the palace bonfire and leave into the adjacent rooms.
- Defeat the nearest Silver Knights one at a time, using doorways and stairs to manage approach angles.
- Continue through rooms you can clear safely, checking corners for additional knights.
- Collect souls automatically on each kill and watch for any item drops.
- Return to the same bonfire by the route you cleared and rest to reset the enemies.
- Spend the souls on levels, supplies, or upgrades before repeating.
- A route that avoids the archers or other dangerous approaches can be better than a longer circuit with more enemies.
- The Silver Serpent Ring increases souls received; it does not improve item drop chances.
Repeat, collect and use
The knights respawn after resting, so the route can be repeated. The number of souls per run varies with enemy selection and New Game cycle.
Common mistakes
- Pulling several knights at once: use room entrances to draw and fight them separately.
- Running through archers or unfamiliar rooms for a larger circuit: shorten the loop until you can complete it reliably.
- Treating carried souls as safe: spend them before exploring a high-risk area or attempting a difficult boss.
When to stop or switch
Stop when you can afford the levels or purchases you planned, or switch to a safer route if knight encounters are causing frequent losses.
