Can anyone recommend a good spot to farm Souls?
I'm quite late here but the very best spot to farm souls is killing the Golden Winged Knights on top of the archives using the pyromancy rapport and backstab chaining. Return to the Grand Archives bonfire after you've killed all three and repeat. If you don't have the pyromancy or the means to use it, kill the three scholars (the men with the wax on their head) in front of the big pool of wax repeatedly.
Alternatively, you can start from the lothric castle bonfire (after the dancer) and repeatedly kill the sword and shield wielding knight. While you have the choice to kill the other two knights, it will actually result in less souls per minute because of the time it takes you to walk towards and fight them. An added bonus is that the lothric knight has a relatively high drop chance for large titanite shards and titanite chunks.
At what point should I start New Game+?
After you've explored the remaining secret areas and killed their respective bosses and have spoken to the blacksmith after doing that.

How many more secret areas are there?

There's only one area left, the one you are looking for right now. Sorry for writing areas, I misused the plural.

Just finishing up my sweep of the Smouldering Lake, then moving on to Irithyll of the Boreal Valley.

the one true God is Doctor Doom and we should all be worshiping him.
That trebuchet-cannon-thing though. Huge pain in the ass.

Notice the statues or corpses or statuecorpses or whatever doing the dragon sit and do it yourself, I guess.

that would make sense if there was more than one statue doing it, and the one statue that IS doing it had arms to more heavily convey the fact that it's doing the path of the dragon gesture and not just crossing his legs or some shit

and also, put some of those exact statues in the back room by oceiros to connect the two. that wouldnt be holding your hand but you could at least make the connection on the way back through.

You either die a hero or live long enough to become Mythic..

Well, think about it.

First it has to connect to players via summon sign for them to even start, then the actual players have to see your summon sign and decide they need some help and use it. Then you have to go through DS3's oh so great online co-op net-code to even connect and join them.
Luckily once you are connected you are good, unlike an invader who is ganked 24/7

If you need to soul farm I'd recommend the 3 winged knights on top of the archives. Each run yields 75,000 for a couple minutes of work.
