Notes
- Offline/PvE farming as a sorcerer: One of the fastest methods to farm the Sunlight Medal is at the Lothric Castle bonfire. You need 60 INT, +9 Court Sorcerer's Staff, Magic clutch ring, Young Dragon Ring, Bellowing Dragoncrest Ring, and Soul Stream spell. Note that the staff does not need to be fully upgraded so that, if you decide to re-spec, you do not need to waste a Titanite Slab. To boost item discovery, you can equip Symbol of Avarice (mimic's head), Covetous Gold Serpent Ring, Crystal Sage's Rapier, and Rusted Gold/Rusted Coin. The key is to one-hit two Lothric Knights near the bonfire with Soul Stream. Here are the steps:
- Start at the FAR END of the bonfire, this prevents the knight near you to walk away as soon you get up from the bonfire.
- Then, cast Steady Chant and then use Rusted coin before moving away from the bonfire (so that the knight does not start to walk away).
- Approach the knight and cast Soul Stream. Make sure you align your spell so that it fully hits both knights. This can be done by standing on the steps, and a bit to its right side (when facing the knight) so that you are almost at the edge of the carpet.
- You can repeat these steps one other time before the effect of Rusted Coin runs out. Meaning this method gets you approximately 4 kills/minute.

Fastest way I've found to farm this: Lothric Castle bonfire. Blessed Lothric Knight Greatsword, 24 str, 60 fth. LIghtning clutch ring + your item discovery setup. Run up to the first knight immediately and do a charge r2. You will probably trade with him, but you should be able to outpoise him and knock him into the ground. If you can't for some reason, wear heavier armor, even if you fat roll, because you won't need rolling. I was doing this in ng+7, so I needed to finish the r2 charge combo or drop the combo into another charged r2 while he was on the ground. Test the damage yourself and see what is faster. Do not go for the second knight, just return to the bonfire and repeat, you should be able to get at least 3 kills with just one rusted coin. I needed something like 17 medals and I got them in something like half an hour ~45 minutes.

in lothric castel there's a knight next to bonfire, i farmed on him, around 2 hours of farming, maybe something more with 460 item discovery ( Symbol of avarice, gcr+3, crystal rapier, normal rusted coin, 40 base luck +5 hollow weapon). Around 300 kill for 30 medal 10% drop. To speed up the process, farm just the first guy not the spear knight, you lose overall time, to reach him, kill 2 priest and come back to bonfire.

People seem to go for lothric castle when farming. Fools! I put my summon sign in front of dragonslayer armour and farm at the dragon barracks bonfire. There is a knight to the left and around the corner that’s easy to kill. Immediately swap to crystal sages rapier in both hands as soon as you defeat it while wearing the symbol of avarice, covetous gold serpent ring, and using a gold rusted coin. While still using the same gear and remembering to immediately swap back to crystal sages rapier in both hands after killing knights walk right past the gate and the knight should aggro. Take him out how you will, if you have magic go back to the dragon bridge and the knight won’t go any farther. Then there’s the spear wileding knight, take him out too. You can then either go back to the bonfire and restart or continue to the sunlight altar and kill the knight that’s there too. And the best part is when you get summoned your relatively close and can put your sign back down quickly. I already got 19 medals this way and it’s only been an hour.

Using a Faith build, I simply equipped both miracle rings, lightning ring, serpent ring +3, yorshka chime. Kill the first Lothric with one lightning spear, skip the priest, and lightning spear the second Lothric, pick up both drops on the way back. Faith at 60. Other gears are avarice headgear and crystal rapier in the other hand. On NG.

In NG I used Symbol of Avarice, Sage Rapier in off hand and Gold Serpent Ring for 310 base. It took 3 hours to farm 30. As a Faith build I couldn't wait till NG+. I used Lothric Castle Bonfire, heading left I killed 3 Knights/Priests and returned to the Bonfire in under 1m. The name game is speed and efficiency. I waited till I was strong enough to backstab and kill them in 1 hit, the last guy still had to be 2 hit. Keep in mind Spook or Slumbering Ring is a must to do it quickly. During the last 15 I stocked up on Rusted Coins (360 Discovery total) which normally ran out as the last Knight died.

If you get summoned to help with a boss as a Sun Bro, and you die but the boss dies after you, you still get a Sunlight Medal as long as the boss dies before you are sent back to your world.

If you are having problems with the knights, the pyromancy Rapport (only need 10 INT + Plus the intelligence ring that boosts it by 5) will cast them into attacking other enemies on sight so you can wail away on them without them attacking back. It makes it easier if you want to go for more knights in the area vs just the 1 by the bonfire in Lothric Castle.

I had a str character just for the achievements, all the others stuck at some SL for PVP... and noticed by NG+ that I didn't do the Sunbro covenant on that char :( My farming tactic: Location: Lothric Castle bonfire, the first 2 knights Build & Equipment: str 40, typical item find equipment + Lothric Greatsword + Lightning clutch ring + Slumbering Dragoncrest Ring. Go for 2 first knights, both with backstabbing and immediate strong attack. With the Dragoncrest Ring it's an incredibly mindless action. They don't react even when you run into them. Each run is about 30 seconds, 2 knights killed. The only thing to worry about is to remember is to use a coin every 2 runs. I experimented with buffing + probably a hornet ring would be better, but I didn't have one on the character atm + this build was viable and needed so little attention that I could legitly read a book during farming.

Farming Lothric Castle Bonfire the first time I arrived at it, and killing only the single knight by the door, with Shield of Want in Left hand, Silver & Gold Serpent Rings, Symbol of Avarice, and Pyromancy in Right Hand, switching Right weapon to Crystal Sage's Rapier as soon as the knight was defeated, I got all 30 Sunlight Medals by the time I had 2.2 million souls. I also got 39 Titanite Chunks, maxed out my Embers (forgot to store them), almost marked out my stored Large Titanite, 50+ each of Lothric Swords, Knights Crossbows, Shields & Lothric Knight Sets, and reached level 162,

A faster PVE farm is just at Lothric Castle bonfire. Rest facing the door, run to the knight, throw great chaos fire orb, run back to the bonfire, throw it again when the knight is standing at the bonfire, pick up the drop and rest to reset.

UHHHH the last achievement I need for platinum is the miracle one... the only character who's close to it just needs GLS... too bad it is also the only character I leveled past 120. F_____________ck me. Not looking forward to the grind... but at least I don't need to farm for Darkmoon blade anymore.

I've no idea where this information about Sirris giving you two medals after defeating Creighton and Hodrick came from, but I got nothing from her in neither of those events, and unless I'm missing something, why would she even give them? She's a member of the Blades of the Darkmoon, not the Warrior of Sunlight.
