Lothric Knight Set | Dark Souls 3 Wiki

Replace the helmet with herald's, and you've somewhat made the blue guys!

Submit

Rocking the full set. My first ever drop was the cuirass / chest plate. Never had it since. Helmet took longer after that when I decided to intentionally farm for the set. Their shield is really good too. Dunno, feel more confident wearing this armour even though I roll more than block. 28 vitality I think. 18 str, 18 dex to wield the sword and the shield. Shield is better first up IMO.

You can stagger the knights
If I get the first hit in, can stun lock for 4 hits ATM and end him.

Blue guy drops red unfortunately

Submit

This set is super common, I got the whole set, weapons and more bye by the time I got to the twin princes.

Submit

drop rate?

Submit

I really wanted to have the blue design of this armor as an obtainable item

Submit

FOR GODS SAKE I'VE BEEN GRINDING FOR TWO DAYS AND STILL CAN'T GET THEIR STUPID HELM!!!!!

Submit

if you get the uchigatana these guys can be easily parried

Really cool armor set, quite heavy but it has the DR and poise to match. I don't mind that it has to be farmed in this instance because the drop rates are decent and there is a good spot to farm the enemies that drop it. I got the entire set after less than 1 hour of farming the four knights in the castle courtyard before the Dancer arena (7 luck and +0 gold serpent ring so quite low item discovery). Unfortunately can confirm the blue knights also drop the red armor, the blue armor seems to be unobtainable. This set has overall decent poise, but unfortunately not infinite poise like the enemies that wear it.

Submit

For the people looking how to get this armor easy if you go to the vordt bonfire after defeating the boss, if you let the lothric knights hit you once and kill them fast then it should be easy. it worked for me at least.

Submit

i love this armor. I end game have it on me

Submit

honestly god tier drip

Submit

Use the slave knight hood for a dollar store banished knight look

Submit

Isn't this the firelink set before it was burnt?

Submit

The Physical Defense Values for each piece and the whole set don't match. The set's physical defense values are incorrect.

Submit

This set looks awesome, it's a bit chonky, taking a lot of equipment load up so I have to ask, how much vitality do I need to wear the whole set without it making me move like a drunken turtle

Submit

this is my favorite armor, what can i replace the lothric knight leggings to something else? because the lothric knight leggings looks very ugly an wierd, please reply....

Submit

Got unlucky lothric knight chestplate bety early in game. Still using it during Irithyll

Submit

the cape look incredible when youre ambered, if only i found other armor with similar cape effect

Submit

Desert Sorceress Hood goes really well with this set.

Submit

I feel like they made this set first and then decided to make an entire game on it

Submit

This armor looks really sick on the lothric knights. On your character it looks like a kid trying to wear armor far too big for them lol.

Submit

secsee

Submit

This with any Lothric wespon + blessed blade = ascended fashion

Submit

looks sick

Submit

this combined with the slave knight hood looks pretty nice tbh, usually combine it with a greatsword and the llewellyn shield

Submit

Funny. The first set of armor you can farm in the game is mid/heavy armor.

Submit

the chest peice is the best because of the cape

Submit

what stats do it need to run the full set?

Submit

Just started DS3 a few days ago (only played an hour or so at a time due to work schedule lol) and finally had a free day to go ham. My start was Knight class (for the purest build experience), and when I encountered the Lothric Knight, I immediately wanted this armour set. So I spent a solid eight hours farming it and levelling up in the meantime.

I'm SL 32 now, with enough Vitality to midroll with full set + shield. Picked Fire Gem as my gift, and am currently rocking a +3 Fire Longsword to go along. Should I work Vitality higher to wield the Claymore, or focus on building strength/vigour for now?

Submit

I’m actually doing a run with just wearing the lothric knight armor it’s also has a lot of poise and blocks a lot of damage.

Submit

69

Submit

Can you still roll normally with this armor?

Submit

thiccer than the version the actual knights wear, 0/10, reduce the thicc

Submit

I wished the blue variant could drop from the blue Lothric Knights :(

Submit

I think the reason the armor looks fat is because of the cloth on the front of the chest that sags all the time. If you look on the side of the chest you can see how big the armor actually is without the cloth.

Submit

I would d normally get 2-3 of these items 0laying through the area normally, but of course when I actually decide to farm it I go 3 *****ing hours without even getting an ember... Broken ass sentient game, knowing what I'm looking for...

Submit

Perfect set for an English Knight cosplay. Just get rid of the cape.

Submit

Kill the Knight welding the sword near the lothric castle bonfire, this set will drop in no time

Submit

IMO this is one of the best sets in DS3: Mediocre defense without too much thicc stuff, nice looking(by my standards)

Submit

I went deprived and i found a serpent ring which gave me this armour idk y no one uses it on YouTube Yet it weights 15 so heavy that i had to go with no helmet. Still looking for a better set i guess it will be clear when i finally choose a class..

Submit

Giorno... you have shown me true resolve!

Submit

time for crab

Submit

How sick would it be to be able to get this in blue like the Knight by the dancer boss area wears? His blue tabard isn't torn almost at all, it looks brand new. And the only fashionable blue set is wolf K*****ht set. Yee

Submit

Ugly

Submit

What real life equivalent is this armor based on?

Submit

Farmed the knights outside Vordt bonfire and got the set in 20-30 minutes. Drops seem completely random, ended up with 10 legs before I got the armour so keep at it - it’ll drop eventually

Submit

Use dancer bonfire to farm this set, the four knights just outside are weak and easier to kill than anywhere else in the game and drop embers frequently

Submit

got the full set in like 10 minutes even though I haven't upgraded luck once. I farmed it from the knight under the second bonfire in the high wall of lothric

Submit

Ok is anyone else having a problem where no matter how thin you make your character they still look fat in this armor? I dint know if this is just part of the armor, or if it's my character, cuz it looks fine in this pic

Submit

10/10 sexier than females

Submit

what is the drop rate for these

Submit

Am I the only one who's proud of FromSoft for making a realistic armor?

Submit

This set has low drop rates. After farming for 45 mins i got helm, chest, two shields, sword, two crossbows, and gloves (I didnt get pants but I didnt need the armor). Its seemed like after 10-15 kills of the lothric knights gets you one of the peices of the set.

Submit

One of my favorite armor sets in the game. The elegant, tattered red cape is the icing on the cake

Submit

I have always wondered can you even get the blue version of this armor?

Submit

I've farmed this set in 10 minutes max when playing the only thing I couldn't get to drop was the great shield . Does it have a low drop rate?

Submit

not worth farming at the start because weight and drop chance. Take the sword or spear if it drops and move on.

Submit

What are the chances of drops, I wonder?

Submit

The developers of the game were huge Berserk fans, so this armor set and the sword were based on the gear worn by Casca.

Submit

Alternately, it is exceedingly easy to spawn at the Dancer/Vordt bonfire, and then run the circuit (which is inhabited by four Knights; two Sword & Shield, one Tower & Spear, and the latter a Blue Knight (Sword & Shield, about twice as tough as their baseline counterparts)
To up your discovery rate, pop a Rusted Coin / Rusted Gold Coin, and wear a Crystal Rapier on your off-hand. Coins can be bought from Patches, after advancing his questline up to his Merchant phase.

Submit

What item discovery rate is recommended?

Submit

i've been farming these knights for over an hour and all i need is the helmet but all i keep getting are crossbows pants and everything that isn't the helmet am i just unlucky or is there something different you need to get the helmet?

Submit

In the current version, I needed 16:37 minutes to find the armour set, the shield, the sword, and even the crossbow. I have Luck at 7, so Item Discovery is 107.
I know the time, because the wife messaged me she was coming home from work, so I had another 30 minutes of DS xD

Submit

Just noticed something kind of interesting: the Lothric Knight set is actually somewhat similar in silhouette to the Drakeblood set, which would match the lore incredibly well. While not quite as decorative, it shares both the red cape decorated with a gold dragon, as well as the reptilian crest atop the helmet, something not seen in any other armor in the game. The red dye, according to the Drakeblood set, represents the pursuit of the blood of dragons. Like the Drakeblood knights, the Lothric knights were once dragonslayers that have since tamed the Wyverns (or so they think), and even their former king, Oceiros, eventually became a dragon himself.

Submit

Is there a better lighter set

Submit

I found the armor chest on the Tower, but I can't equip it. There is some request to use this armor?

Submit

im a dark souls noob and i have never played dark souls before, and i farmed the knights near vordt for souls, i got the whole knight set 2 times (the helmet and leggings i got 3 times) 2 lothric swords, the shilde and the crossbow in 10 minutes, i have never leveled up luck (i started as a warrior) i must have been really lucky or you guys have been really unlucky

Submit

Which Is better lothric knight armor or black knight?

Submit

I found mine at the place it said to farm it at

Submit

Hmm, I've seen players with a blue cape version of the chest, the red eyed knight outside of the Dancer wears it. But where is it found?

Submit

it's on par with the black and silver knight armor.

Submit

I cleared the knights outside Vordt/Dancer like 7 or 8 times and popped 2 rusted coins and 1 gold one (I was trying to farm something else and am stupid), anyway - I was able to get the entire set with 4-5 pieces of some of them. This set is not hard to farm if you just run through that area. It's accessible from Vordt, but faster from dancer.

Submit

i'm seeing allot of complaints about drop rates, if its really an issue and you don't feel like investing points into luck, try coming back with the crystal sage's rapier or the covetous gold serpent ring which both increase item discovery.

Submit

yeah its cool but heavy as f***. maybe one if not THE reason so many complain about the difficulty. All running around in the complete set...fatroling...constantly dying...

Submit

Nice defensive stats, 142 flat physical and around 28-ish % absorption, decent elemental absorption (except lightning). For 31 vit and the NG version of the ring of favor, i can wear the complete set with shield and sword, plus the knight crossbow. Its a full cosplay!

Submit

8 hours of just trying to get the gauntlets? why is dark souls loot system still broken as hell?

Submit

Took me 2 hours to grind this set, but it felt like 15 minutes

Submit

The leggings is a mth bean trying for an hour nothing

Submit

Despite being early obtainable, this armour set is actually quite good.
It has good defenses against physical/magical/status attacks and still lighter than the Cathedral Knight set.

Submit

Seems RNG was on my side, i got all but the chest in 30 mins and the chest in an hour.

Submit

Strangely enough, I was able to get all the drops within 10 minutes of farming. Lol. I guess it's all luck.

Submit

I really do love this set. With 42 vitality I rock it with the wolf knight great shield and a long sword (which is an amazing weapon)

Submit

I wish this set was a little lighter as it is the best armor for a good chunk of the game.

Submit

This set is one of the best in the game, compared to many others, but it's way too heavy. I have 38 vitality, and it still is impossible to wear without having to use light weapons. It's a pity that the weight ruins this set.

Submit

If you've beat the beast boss, lure knights to his domain. They won't go inside the room. You can then easily kill them and get their drops without fear of dying.

Submit

I can't tell you HOW MANY TIMES I had to restart just to get these sets of items. I can get the Lothric weapons easy from Greirat, but the armor is a ***** to get considering the only way to get it is by kill the ganking knights. (I've been swarmed by all three once)I had to restart my game several times due to power-outages, ALSO QUICK NOTE IF YOU DISCONNECT BY TURNING OFF THE SYSTEM OR PUTTING IT IN SLEEP MORE THAN 5 TIMES, YOU WILL GET THE SAVE DATA CORRUPT MESSAGE AND EVERY CHARACTER SAVE WILL BE DELETED.

Submit

This looks kinda like the unused Fluted Set, right?

Submit

So I'm a little confused by this, I tried to wear it, but it wouldn't let me. After reading the description, is it safe to assume that I have to actually choose the knight class? Or is there something else at play?

Submit

As a tip, I noticed that the bonfire you get for defeating Vordt is better than than The Tower on the Wall bonfire because there are 4 Lothric Knights you can fight one on one. They are not far from the bonfire and made it more efficient to farm their armor.

Submit

After extensive restarts as a deprived character I can say with confidence that drop rates are not consistent with any item. There are definite item patterns you can make out after a few sweeps which is a bit annoying. An example being that in one play-through I had the entire Lothric set including weapons drop except for the Lothric Greatshield which took (5+) hours to farm with 10 luck. Yet in another play-through the Lothric Greatshield dropped in an instant, and it took (5+) hours for one of the other Lothric items to drop. The supposed "rare" Lothric Knight Sword for instance was dropping almost every kill at 10 luck. Meanwhile in another play-through it was the Lothric Shield.Drop rates are not consistent, and I would daresay that the game labels certain items from the beginning to be harder to farm then others. I honestly feel there is no standardized format for farming like the other Dark Souls versions. You never know what to expect with this new system!This was not limited to just Lothric equipment either, and common items like the soldiers iron shield were having the same thing happen.

Submit

Arms seems to drop mainly on the blue cape knight though. I got the helm, and legs on the spear knight, armor on normal knights. When embered up the stuff drops like mad. Ive gotten all the pieces sword, heavy shield, normal shield, everything except the spear so far. I dont believe there's something that gives you a blue cape though

Submit

im wearing full lothric knight sight and i have 27.160 phys absorption not the listed 30.1 that's posted here. i have NOTHING equipped besides the armor. the weight is correct though. it is 36. looking at all my physical absorptions (normal, strike, slash etc. but not elemental resist) compared to the wiki everything is 3 below what is posted here.

Submit

If you play Dark Souls like I do (heavy armor at all times and large weapons) , this armor is perfect for just that! My only criticism of the armor is that it's too good at what it does. Compared to the starter knight armor , this armor is god like. You will be wearing this armor for a long extent of the game because of how good it is. I'm all for physical protection but this armor is ridiculous. I've been wearing it for so long that it's design is burned into my brain. Any armor that could be considered better can only be found after a good chunk of the game.

Submit

Can it only have the red mantle or the blue one as well?

Submit

First time player, I got the lothric chest plate but it won't let me wear it, can anyone tell me why

Submit

Its true but I think its only the armor and helm that's different. Everything else I think is just normal lothric knight armor:)

Submit

Ive heard whispers that the blue one has a chance to drop the blue variant of the armor? I haven't seen any sources confirming this so I am doubtful, but the fashion souls player in me wants to know.

Submit

Kill the blue knight near Vordt with the 3 Lothric Knights. Killed him two times in a row, after first kill he dropped both Lothric Helm and Chest twice

Submit

i just got the armor which was the most difficult part of the set to find .i killed lothric knight over 100 times . this enemy located near the "tower on the wall" bonfire

Submit

Really cool, but if you have the "Very Burly" physique, the chest piece looks fat as *****, idk why.If you're looking to farm this set, be advised of the above and to have a high enough vitality to not fat-roll with this armor, which I believe is 32, not accounting for weapons and shields.
