Demon’s Souls – farm souls and level them quickly

Souls are the greatest good at Demon’s Souls and since the remake of the stockpile glitch for the PS5 no longer exists, you have to farm them in a classic way. To be able to level up quickly, you need a lot of souls. That’s why we show you which opponents can get the most souls in a quick run.

Farming souls in Demon’s Souls – general tips

As the game progresses, you will get numerous souls and farming will be easier, but in the beginning, it is still a difficult task. Still, there are opponents who provide you with more souls than others. These include the blue-eyed and red-eyed knights, as well as the flying rays – we will go into all three in the further course of our article.

If you are going on the hunt for souls, then you should prepare well for it. There are items or spells that help you to increase the number of souls you can win. Some of them you get very early in the game, for others, you first have to become stronger and progress through the levels. The following equipment will help you, farm souls:

• Get the ring of greed, with which you will get 20% more souls.
• If you play a female character, you can still put on the silver bracelet, which gives you an additional 10% soul.
• Have you chosen a class that can do magic, then get the spell thirst for souls from Yuria (in exchange for a golden demon soul from the boss old monk). But remember that you can exchange this soul for other spells, miracles or weapons.
• The thief’s ring can also be helpful in your endeavors. This means that you are less visible to opponents and you can concentrate better on individual battles without having to face hordes.

Farming souls at the Greedy King’s Wedge (World 1)

The first option to farm souls very quickly is after you have defeated the tower knight. The opponents who supply you so well with souls here are the blue-eyed knights. You meet them just before the entrance to the Boss Arena.

Start at the Keilstein Vorburg and walk back towards 1-2. Right in the gate, you can see the first knight with blue eyes. If you sneak up on him, you can take many TPs from him from behind using the backstab. Then grab the second knight.

Then return to the Keilstein, spawn again in the same place and the fun starts all over again. With this method, you will get 400 souls per knight depending on the equipment. It’s not much, but okay to start with.

In the first world, you will find a red-eyed knight at the gate to the Old King Dorian. In world 1-3 you will face even more opponents of this type. They are still a real challenge at the beginning, but as soon as you are up to it, you can get around 2,000 souls from the opponent.

Even if it is said on the net that one can farm souls well with the red knights, we are not so convinced of it. At the beginning of Demon’s Souls, the way to get there, including struggle and risk, is far too much effort to be able to call it farming. But everyone has to make the decision for themselves. But if you are stronger later in the game, you can also use this option.

Farming souls at the Shadowmen Keilstein (World 4)

This is actually a very good way to farm souls. Go to the Keilstein Path of Rituals (4-2) and look straight ahead. You can see the flying rays in the distance see that bring you 1,000 souls per enemy. So if you have a bow (it is best to improve it to at least +5) you can start farming here.

The real enemy who will make you rich is right below you. Run into the tunnel and equip your bow or spell again. Concentrate your attacks on the reaper, because all enemies down there will die with him.

If you rely on hand-to-hand combat, the reaper can be more of a challenge. Nevertheless, you will not regret the fight, because as soon as all opponents die, you will receive around 4,500 souls, depending on the buffs .

Farming souls at Keilstein Monolith Forest (World 4)

If you penetrate deeper into world 4, you will defeat the Storm King boss. There you will find the Storm Lord sword and this is exactly what helps you to quickly eliminate the flying rays.

After the boss fight, go back to the Keilstein Monolith Forest and turn around. Run to the rubble and push yourself tightly into the right corner of the crumbling building from inside. From there you can easily fetch the rays from the sky with the Storm Lord. If you were successful, you will be richer by 15,000 souls per run and depending on the buffs.

We are of course on the lookout for further or new opponents and places where you can properly farm souls in Demon’s Souls: Remake. As soon as we find something, we’ll update this article.
