Farming Guide

• The Lindelt Clerics and Amana Shrine Maidens in the Shrine of Amana have a decent drop rate for Twinkling Titanite.
• The two pieces of Twinkling Titanite near the Place Unbeknownst bonfire in Forest of Fallen Giants are easy to farm with Bonfire Ascetics. The Giant Lord has to be killed every time.(does NOT work in SOTFS, item does not respawn with use of ascetic)
• Farming the Crystal Lizards in Dragon Aerie, together with killing and looting the three dragons, is worth at least six Twinkling Titanite each run. Burn a Bonfire Ascetic at the Dragon Aerie bonfire to reset the spawns and redo the run.
• The wooden chest in Dragon Shrine can be farmed with Ascetics for three Twinkling Titanite per run. The Ancient Dragon has to be killed if he is aggressive.
• The three in the wooden chest in Dragon's Sanctum are perfect for farming.
  • Use a Bonfire Ascetic on the Tower of Prayer bonfire in Shulva, Sanctum City.
  • You can pick up a respawning Ascetic, to replace your used one, in the hall with ambushing Sanctum Soldiers, inside a trapped wooden chest. (This is changed in Sotfs it now contains 3 Dried roots)
  • Go pillage the Titanite chest. Rinse and repeat.
  • The chest also contains three Petrified Dragon Bones.
  • (Believed to be patched, when using bonfire ascetic you are prompted with message "First, defeat the lord of this quarter…")
  • (Not patched; Elana The Squalid Queen needs to be defeated first.)
