HOW THE HELL DO I KILL THESE GUYS

Submit

easy to kill with strength class

Submit

Trying to kill just one of them killed me more times than the abyss watchers, vordt, crystal sages, deacons of the deep, and curse-rotted greatwood combined. I just cant help but ask... Is there any point in fighting them? Lyke I spent three hours dying to them, but then easily killed the boss in five minutes.It just feels pointless to play the game, since the most rewarding strategy to use is it completely ignore all the enemies and skip them all.

Submit

Are these repurposed knights of dark souls? Same gear mace and great shield or greatsword, tall fully armoured beasts seems awfully similar

Submit

I managed to break his shield but somehow I always miss the critical. SOmeone please explain.

Submit

Do they drop their hammer at all?

Submit

This page seems a little redundant seeing as there is another page incorrectly named "Knight of the Deep" which has info on the same enemy...

Submit

I'm not sure they use a Lightning buff. Their weapon glows white but doesn't look like a weapon does when gold pine resin is applied, and it will leave glowing marks on the floor that explode after a time. I haven't messed with the spells much but they also have something that gives them a glowing aura and they can heal, but I can't place them.

These guys are highly susceptible to the toxic buildup. if you can bait them into it and keep it clear from yourself, can kill them in a relatively safe manner.

Submit

they drop their shields too even though its not listed in the shields list

Submit

is having low weight gear, bait them into their overheadsmashing lunge and move in to backstab(fast)

Submit

AND AN AOE BLAM!COME ON AND SLAM!WELCOME TO THE JAM!HEY YOU WHATCHA GONNA DO (not block)HEY YOU WHATCHA GONNA DO (not trade)

Submit

Do they even have stamina limit? These things just keep swinging all day long! Besides parry and trade attacks I don't have other effective way against these roid heads

Submit

Aren't even worth fighting conventionally. As mentioned here, they seem to have infinite stamina. Parry works real well, but why even bother taking the risk? I just took the left one out with a ranged weapon and tricked the second one into falling off the ledge so I could do a plunge attack on him. So much easier than direct combat.

Submit

The greatsword ones use only one attack. A right to left swing. Over. And over. And over. So you can't attack them normally (they don't stun). When you do manage to get around them to do a backstab, your animation will come out about 10 times slower and they have a 100% chance to counter you for half your health. And you have to fight TWO of them in the consumed kings garden. So basically you just run away because they can't be backstabbed, they can't be stunned, and they do a third of your health in one hit with absurd tracking. Grade A enemy. Perfect design.

Looks like I will be farming these guys all night since stupid patches wont appear for me so i can get the catrina set.

Submit

Iv farmed over 300000 souls trying to get the blue chest piece , any have it willing to trade ? Does it even drop ?

Submit

Can mace wielding knights drop the greatsword?

Submit

I have no problem with the shield knights but the ones with the greatswords can go to hell. What's the trick to beating them?

Submit

Why am I having so much trouble? What the ***** is the secret to killing these guys?

Submit

Way too fricken OP. The great sword ones at least
