Summons spirit of Banished Knight Engvall
|
Banished Knight Engvall Ashes is a Spirit and Summon in Elden Ring. Banished Knight Engvall Ashes are used to summon the spirit of Engvall, the Banished Knight.
Banished Knights can also be found as Enemies in Elden Ring. For more information, see Banished Knight.
Ashen remains in which spirits yet dwell.
Use to summon the spirit of Engvall, the Banished Knight.
One of the two knights dubbed the Wings of the Storm. Despite his banishment, he rejected the invitation of the Grace-Given Lord, instead keeping watch over a masterless castle for many years, gaining renown as a hero of the fringes.

Where to Find Banished Knight Engvall Ashes
- Murkwater Catacombs: Obtained after defeating the Grave Warden Duelist. It was included patch 1.03, replacing the Battle Hammer that the boss dropped.

- Compared a similar spirit, Banished Knight Oleg, he appears to be a bit tankier, but lacking in damage output.

This new character I gave up Lhutel and tried out this guy, he's better honestly. A lot more tanky and keeps aggro (he doesn't warp to you so that's a downside but that's it compared to her) and can stun lock most regular enemies AND will do a lot of poise damage to bosses. He's put a lot of bosses into stun for me.

Love this dude, he's best against humanoid size enemies because he tends to heavy stagger them very often (i.e. pancake them flat on the ground lol) buying you lots of time to heal or charge attacks.
Larger enemies he's mostly a decent tank. Some have already pointet out that he sometimes takes a bit to pull the aggro so that can be problematic for mages relying on a tank.
But seriously it's not that bad, just need to reposition so you don't lure the enemy away from him.
So much fun to take turns with him throwing enemies around with skills that are good at that (e.g. cannon of haima).
RIP xD

I got the banished knight set and the +8 halberd after failing Irina's quest on my first run. I get this guy and since he looks identical to me, whenever I summon him I say "HELP ME BROTHAAA" like I'm Josh from Drake and Josh.
I love him

You know, he's really good as an early game summon. Sure he's not the most powerful Ghost Glovewart Spirit Summon, but for how easy it is to get past the required boss, it's not bad at all.
Great for early game due to the power to ease of access ratio. Can hold onto until the midgame where you can get summons like Omenkiller Rollo, Dungeater, Black Knife Tiche and Mimic Tear.

Did anyone else miss Chadpion Gundyr? Well here he is in spirit ashes form! Spinning halberds, staggering stomps and leaping attacks on unlucky cretins! AoE damage is the best kind of crowd control for this pointy boi.
Not only is he good in taking out mobs, but this big meaty rod can also take a beating. Call him tanks-alot and say "Thanks, alot." when he drops down the halberd.
Marika's tits, there's more! You can get him really early. Even earlier than that Kaidan Swolesword. Just level up that FP so you can booty cal- bossy call this chunky bro and let him dunk on maidenless demi-gonks.

This is bar far the worst of the “high level” summons. Can’t hold agro at all. Just tested on 2 bosses and it didn’t not hold agro the whole fight. I do not recommend.

He is very good but I often end up shouting ENGVALL, as he always ends up stalking the boss instead of attacking it.

Why’d they give both of them the exact same version of the Banished Knight set? Seems like a missed opportunity to have the other one wear either the cloaked hood or the unaltered chest piece.

I’ve fought with this man in many many fights. He was my first +10 ash. He can also solo smaller dungeon bosses as well all by himself. I consider him pretty much a friend at this point lol.

Engvall tanks like a champ. I use him as my primary spirit ash in boss fights, but sometimes the mimic all depending. Engvall will *follow* you, just know this, so if you get too far away from him he'll stop fighting and run to you. Not good of course in the middle of a fight. But he hits like a truck and is always ready for action, I'll let him watch my back any day.

Honestly my favorite of all the summons. It's so satisfying to stunlock bosses with him and watch as they get face planted if they haven't already been poise broken. Really enjoy just releasing him onto a field of enemies and just watching from the sidelines. 11/10 would absolutely recommend with the highest degree

the lone wolves spirit summons even with no upgrades, make getting this from the grave warden boss and lhutel headless from the cemetery shade a triviality even for very low levelled players just getting started.

This guy has major "getting compared to your cool big brother" syndrome. In my experience he's a more defensive version of the two with way more stagger in exchange for quite a but less damage output. Sometimes he's just what you need. I prefer him to Oleg when I don't need help with doing enough damage, just need something in between me and the boss. Engvall does that job very well. Plus you can get him like 10 minutes into the game without doing the damn chariot dungeon

So what exactly makes him better than Oleg? He's not a bad summon but he just seems outclassed (which is a problem with a LOT of summons in this game but whatever) by his counterpart which costs the same fp and is way more aggressive and much better at staggering bosses. I don't see any, if at all, difference in their health and even then Oleg still worked better on the gatefront test. The only true advantage I'm seeing is that the grave warden in Murkwater Catacombs isn't the walking stomach ulcer in Fringefolk Hero's Grave so he's easier to get.

Used this guy pretty much the entire game. Might be top 5 tankiest summons and will pretty much never die in any fight. The damage is not great but he does high poise damage and knocks down very often. If summoned at the start of the Malenia fight, he will make her eat dirt before she gets any attacks in and you can do over 30% of her health right there.
No ranged weapons though he has a strong mid-range storm jump attack. Don't use it vs bosses that fly or move a lot (like dragons or Ainsel).
Will keep any boss busy for as long as you need. Worth the 100 FP for sure.

Weird how he's explicitly called the "Hero of the Fringes" in his description yet he's not the Banished Knight you get in the Fringefolk Hero's Grave. It's like his and Oleg's location was switched.

I wonder why this dude wasn’t in the Fringefolk Grave. Is it because the Grace Given Lord (likely Morgott) tried to invite him to serve him, but he refused? It’s said that Oleg accepted the Lord’s offer, maybe that’s why he got to be buried in a nice grave instead of Engvall, got only got the regular catacombs. Engvall was likely the true hero of the fringes, but was never granted the opportunity to rest in a special grave because he refused the Lord’s offer.

Are you summoning a big ass ghost knight with a halberd?
No he's my grandpa, he died on the way to the renaissance festival. Here's your sign. (big points if you get that joke)
- Anonymous
He is the easiest elite ash you can get and can really impact early game’s difficulty. He is in a small dungeon with a somewhat weak boss close to the beginning of the game. Just pick the wolf ashes and you can probably kill him on the first try.

A real bro summon. Has great AI - at least 3 times in "multiboss" or "boss with ads" fights, he focused the target that I did not focus, lightening my load. Quite aggressive, has good pathing. His damage is not OP, he won't solo most of the bosses, he lets you participate in the game, like a true bro. He is tanky. You get him early, and he does not require big investments in Mind (literally).

Can someone explain why this ash is given from the Murkwater Catacombs, but is described as "gaining renown as a hero of the fringes.", and then the other Banished Knight, Oleg comes from... the Fringefolk Hero's Grave?! Such a strange choice lorewise.

A key point to note about using Engvall vs. Oleg is they have a big difference in fighting multiple enemies in somewhere like Sellia (where I like to test all the summons to get a feel for how they aggro and generally function). Oleg will sheathe both of his swords any time that combat isn't active, meaning that he has to draw them again when an enemy appears, which takes him a longer time to engage new enemies, and why his DPS is slightly higher. Engvall on the other hand always has his halberd in-hand, and will whirlwind attack in order to engage if he's too far back, so he is MUCH faster to leap in and defend you from hidden enemies. As such, Oleg is better under constant aggression, but Engvall will serve better under intermittent combat. Hopefully that helps sort out how to best prioritize playstyle if you're using them in Ruins or other locations aside from just boss fights.

That boi helps veggie players like myself enjoy that game. Offline OP buddy, who will tank bosses so you can backstab/spellcast/shoot them to death.
I've upgraded mine to 3+ and he face-tanked dragon in Liruna and Magma Wyrm with no issues.
What a BRO.
Definitely worth getting early points into mana pool, even as melee player, to summon him.

Summoned him for putrid tree spirit and my man tanked every hit, for 4 whole minutes and didn't even die.The summons in this game are awesome and so much fun to use.

Seems like Oleg has slightly better dps while Engvall has slightly better at surviving. The difference is minor enough that they are pretty interchangeable. So really its all down to which one you think is cooler.

Wish you could fuse both banished knights into like a super summon. Of course they'd have to cost a lot of FP but it would kick ass to have both Oleg and Engvall to curb-stomp baddies

In case you folks didn't understand it from the posts below me, people have found it in their inventory and it must be because of [[ enter some very wrong assumption that isn't related to the latest patch whatsoever ]]

Did some tests with this and the oleg variant vs a giant or some godrick soldiers . After a few tries oleg does more dps and staggers enemies a lot but he is less tanky and doesn't have a jump attack which also helps engvall tank more by jumping over attacks. My view on these two is generally oleg is better unless you are vsing large amounts of enemies as then engvall's massive swinging attacks and survivability will generate more value.

...*looks down at other comments* ...Alright, I'm not crazy. With patch 1.03 I just...Saw this guy in my inventory. I did Murkwater *aaaages* ago, and it *definitely* wasn't in my inventory then. Well. Thanks FromSoft!
...I remember this guy. THIS was the guy when I was a small level squisy folk who surpised me RIGHT before I hit that places' next Site of Grace! I went back to exploring due to THIS guy.
Aaaanywho. Now the same murder guy can murder foes. He's better than Oleg, great at DPS, but doesn't have any way to mitigate damage. But has strong attacks and great melee AoEs.

I'm assuming From meant to add this Ash IN ADDITION to the Hammer the boss in Murkwater Catacombs drops but instead they accidentally REPLACED it with this ash instead.
Until someone confirms and finds out where they moved that hammer, I will assume this to be the case.

So... he's definitely not cut content... because I have him??? But no clue when/how i obtained him?
I just got him today, as I didn't have him last night...
My best guess is maybe you get him as a reward after you get all the legendary ashes?

I just randomly got this from the new patch and dear lord this thing is awesome. It murders hordes of enemies with massive swing combos (I saw 5 swings in a row as he did the wind up stagger thing that banished knights do) has great poise and has great stagger potential. Better than lhutel the headless for sure at the very least in the testing I did in both survivability and damage.

He just appeared in my inventory today (March 17) after an update. Did the Grave warden Duelist ages ago so either:
A) I was supposed to get it then, and the patch fixed it. or
B) he came as part of the update and was supposed to be included in the additional content for those who pre-ordered, or
C) Something else I haven't thought of XD

So for those of you wondering, Banished Knight Engvall's Spirit Ashes now drop from the Murkwater Catacombs Grave Warden Duelist boss. This boss used to drop the Battle Hammer, which I have no idea where that has been moved to. Begs the question though - if From is willing to change this reward, what else did they change?

There's something strange here. I killed the Gravekeeper Warden in the Murkwater Catacombs, and instead of dropping his hammer, he dropped this item. Only on my most recent playthough, I've killer him 4 other times and got the hammer.

Obtained the Banished Knight Engvall ashes in lieu of the Battle Hammer after defeating the Grave Warden Duelist in Murkwater Catacombs.
- Anonymous
I got them by killing the Grave Warden Duelist of Murkwater Catacombs in Limgrave. Which is extremely strange since he's supposed to drop the Battle Hammer and did in my last playthrough.
This time I was playing as a sorcerer. I'm not sure if that made any difference.
Watching Engvall use completely disproportionate amounts of force to brutally slaughter Rennala's children is honestly one of my favorite ER moments. I summon him, and he immediately launches himself into a somersault and lands directly on the head of a 14 year-old.
10/10 summon.
