Not true farming as the gargoyles are not respawnable in a single playthrough which is really the backbone of the idea of item farming in such type video games.

Kill the enemy reap the possible harvest and then plant the enemy again (in this case bonfire resting, though baby skeletons are self propagating little weeds) and then rinse and repeat viola... you are now farming. :)

Not sure what you would call the gargoyles helm and shield acquisition? Possibly a magicians "shell gaming"? As we know there is metaphorically one or more balls with the gargoyles but never sure how many is with either one. But we do know if you look under them all (kill them) then you are eventually going to find at least one ball.
