Here is the Dark Souls III Ultimate Bonfire Trophy Guide
This will require you to collect Undead Bone Shards then burn them in the Firelink Shrine bonfire to increase the effectiveness of your Estus / Ashen Estus Flasks whenever you use them
There are 10 Undead Bone Shards to collect throughout Lordran, all of which can be collected in one playthrough.
You will need to collect and then burn them at Firelink Shrine in order to unlock your trophy / achievement, simply collecting them isn’t enough
Here are the locations of the 10 Undead Bone Shards in the order you can collect them

Undead Bone Shard 1
Undead Settlement, Dilapidated Bridge bonfire
From the bonfire, make your way up and around to the Tower where the Giant can be found if you take the elevator up or down to the Road of Sacrifices.
Ride the elevator up (step up then roll off of the elevator with Siegward of Catarina causing another elevator to come down, ride this one up) and Make Peace with the Giant first, otherwise this Undead Bone Shard is nearly impossible to get successfully
head back to the Dilapidated Bridge bonfire so you have your bearings then go forward pass the Hollow Manservant enemy staying right, either allow the Giant to take out the enemies or do it yourself.
You then need to perform a running jump onto the ledge to your right, upon which will be the Undead Bone Shard

Undead Bone Shard 4
Road of Sacrifices, Abyss Watchers bonfire
Go through into the Catacombs of Carthus, make your way through the crypt where you will find a long set of stairs going down with several Skeleton enemies. Take care around the rolling ball as it can easily knock you off the stairs.
Once at the bottom of the stairs, head through the archway then to your immediate right is a Skeleton with a Mages Hat, defeat it then wait for the ball to come back down.
As long as you have defeated the hat wearing Skeleton, the ball will then smash against the wall, allowing you to collect the Undead Bone Shard

Catacombs of Carthus, Demon Ruins bonfire
Head back to the Smouldering Lake and take out the Carthus Sandworm. As long as you haven’t disabled the ballista, the splash damage will do a good job of taking out the Sandworm, just keep rolling so you don’t take to much damage, healing as often as you can.
Once the Carthus Sandworm is defeated, you will acquire the Undead Bone Shard

Undead Bone Shard 9
Lothric Castle, Dragon Barracks bonfire
If you haven’t done so already, you will need to take out the 2 Wyverns across the bridge, to do so effectively, bring the strongest bow you can lay your hands on and as many arrows as you can carry. Stand behind the battlement to the left of the bridge and whittle their health down.
If you destroy the one on the left it will kill both of them so focus fire there. Once they have been defeated, make your way to the end of the bridge they are guarding and drop off to the right.
Turn around to find the Undead Bone Shard underneath the bridge
