Played yesterday for about 2 hours and clocked up around 250k souls just laying my summon down for Mytha Boss (Beheaded Medusa) over and over at Earthen Peak, easy way to get sunlight medals and around 15k souls every time the boss is defeated. Finally hit level 3 with my covenant after leaving Blue Sentinels and joining Heirs of the Sun (Jolly Co Operation and Praise the Sun!! ). I now have the Sunlight Spear but can't cast it just yet as I need 55 Faith which is another 20 levels away, may just respec as Faith does up your elemental damage bonuses as I use a Fire Longsword +10 and a Lightning Heide Knight Longsword +10, take 10 points or so off things like Strength.
Lil-Diablo If you wear the Silver Covetous Ring (Coiled Silver Serpent) you get more souls for each enemy defeated, also lay your sign down beside a boss fog you are comfortable with, few runs with the boss in co op will really boost your souls
