As per the title: is there a place, before Father Gascoigne, good for farming Blood Stone Shards?
I'm doing multiple runs cause I want to lvl up before defeating this boss and I also want to upgrade the Saw Cleaver.

Best Answer
Your best bet are the beast-like creatures known as Large Huntsmen. They can be found in the sewers and just outside Father Gascoigne's boss room. There are also 12 that you can find in Central Yharnam according to this source:
The 12 above will get you close to 16 required to bring your weapon to +3 (the maximum you can raise it with bloodstone shards), but you'll see low returns from drops and more likely out-level the area before you get enough. Future zones offer better farming opportunities and you can even unlock them for purchase using blood echoes or insight after certain events.
