Easier method for slabs that doesn't require as much thought, especially at end-game: Use Firelink Shrine as your bonfire of choice and use a fat weapon that does a good chunk of damage two handed. Run from the bonfire down the stairs and down again to the elevator down to new londo. When it reaches the bottom make sure to press the button before exiting so you don't have to wait every time. Jump over the two walls as soon as you exit the door and cross the two bridges at the end of the path.
If you run onto the breakable pot before the first bridge you won't be slowed down by falling. Run past the first two ghosts and drop down onto an arch to the right of the stairs. Drop further to a pool area. Here you should be aggroed by a Darkwraith a little to your right.

Use a running attack, or bait his jump and do a jumping attack. You should easily one-shot him and all the others. Turn around until you see an entrance to a large hall type area, kind of like stables. There should be a Darkwraith to your right - kill him with a running attack. Turn around to run towards the other end of the hall. On the second door to your left is another one.
Kill it with a running attack. Go back out into the hall and there should be another Darkwraith in a door to the left of the room you were just in.
Again, kill it with a running attack. Exit the hall using the door on the opposite side of where you originally entered. There should be another Darkwraith to kill with a running attack. Follow the path through the wooden house-like structures until you exit into an open area. There should be another Darkwraith at the bottom of some stairs. Kill him with a running attack, or do a plummeting attack off of the short ledge adjacent to the stairs. Homeward Bone back, and repeat.

I use running attacks as they are usually quick enough to kill the Darkwraiths before they can swing. If this fails, a heavy attack also works. Make sure you are 2 handing your weapon as well. Some useful items: Homeward Bones - buy 99 from the female Undead Merchant, or the guy on top of Undead Parish. Symbol of Avarice - can be hard to get, but is worth it to free up a ring slot.
I use this and heal before entering the large hall. A rare drop from Mimics.
Grass Crest Shield - very useful for letting you run more. In fact, this is one of the best items in the game when you 2 hand a weapon in general. If you don't have it pick it up from Darkroot Basin.
Ring of Favor and Protection - get this from killing Lautrec. Useful in general, but gives you more equip load so you can handle the weight of Symbol of Avarice. Covetous Gold Serpent Ring - if you don't have SoA, or don't like the weight/health drain, this is a good alternative.
Dark Souls 3 Shield Of Want
What I used for this was a +14 Great Club (I was farming slabs for the final level), and I had 40 strength. I could easily one-shot every Darkwraith with this build (657 2 hand RH1 damage). By the end of farming for one slab, I levelled up to 46 strength. It takes forever. Remember to hold your weapon with 2 hands, and good luck!

I'm not sure if it helps but I found a neat early game farm route for shards and souls.
So far its been giving 1 - 2 shards + 800 - 1000 souls for about 2 or 3 mins of work. Start from the Vordt bonfire and Run up the stairs. Kill the two shield hollows, the crossbow archer, then the two red caped sword knights, red caped spear knight, and then if you run like you are entering the cathedral of the way of blue and hook left there's a blue caped knight there that has been dropping a shard each time I killed him for the past 5 or 6 runs.
