What is the FASTEST way of farming Silver Knights?
Grinding for those ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ears...

THIS is the way I do it:

I have yet to find a good guide of farming the Silver Knights that is the fastest and most efficient way of doing it.

All guides and advice I can find require a ridiculous Soul-Level or the use of overleveled massive weapons.(Isn't the entire point of getting the Darkmoon Ring/Blade as fast as possible and not end-game?!)

I am currently farming them at SL 55. All my attributes have been respecc'd to LUCK.

My way farms them both in about 26 seconds - 13 seconds per knight. I parry the first knight with the spear - fast swap to Crystal Sages Spear, riposte insta-killing the knight and then just backstab the second.

Item Discover 471

I'd love to find out a faster and more efficient way that doesn't require an atrociously high soul level and that is faster.

I'm NOT looking for advice how to get summoned as a Dark Moon covenant. I never get summoned. During my 4 hours farming run I've been summoned 4 times. It is useless. I JUST want to know how to kill the Silver Knights the FASTEST WAY POSSIBLE at SL55. Don't bother explaining to me how blue sommons work. Thank you.

I just use them as parry practice and backstab them if the ss one goes for the electric slam (it's unparriable as far as I know).

Anything infused or buffed with dark works wonders on them. I would also farm the 3rd red-eyed knight too, it's believed that one has a higher drop rate. He's where I got most of my concords.

The third knight wastes a lot of time for me. By the time I'm done with the 3rd knight I would have already run back to the bonfire and killed 2 more. 3rd kight is a tad more far away and has a lot more heatlh so I never considered to be even worth defeating him. I will try it out though
Even the fastest, most efficient farming is tedious. Unfortunately for you, this is apparently the most tedious farming to do for a mediocre reward. As damage output is highly dependent on SL, it's not likely anybody can tell you exactly what to use.

The only time I ever sat and farmed for anything was Swordgrass. I used a mage to Souls Spear two Ghrus in one shot, then the third. I could get four iterations (12 Ghrus) per coin and it still took 40 minutes to get 16 Swordgrass. If it takes you 30 seconds per iteration you'll only kill 4 Knights per coin. Expect it to take 2-3 hours to get 30 Concords.

This may not be helpful but Lightning Weapon is essentially the same spell as Darkmoon Blade, except with Lightning (obviously). Same Faith requirement, same damage buff, same FP cost.

I'm not sure, but I farmed mine at Anor Londo with a Longsword while practicing parries. I eventually got all of their drops without even meaning too
