Knight Set | Elden Ring Wiki

poise, drip, protection. what more could you ever want

Submit

I do wonder why they always give the basic Knight Set OD poise to weight ratio. This one is no different, probably the best PvE set in the game.

Submit

The helmet of this armour just looks.. off.. like it's too small compared to the body, might just be me though.

Submit

People about to forget all about that random nobody Vyke, because they are gonna meet John Elden Ring

Submit

If you combine this with a Claymore, a Buckler, and both equip load talismans, you can actually light roll at 50 END. Basically you get the best of everything and make a middle of the road type of character. Jack of all trades. Elden shoto.

Submit

Is it just me or does this armor look like the demon souls armor

Submit

I believe that the Knight Set is what Vyke's armor looked like before he got touched by the Three Fingers

Submit

If you see this guy in the colosseums, just give up. He'll somehow parry you with the default parry on a medium shield every single time and dodge all your spells. Dark Souls boomers are simply too powerful. They've been playing these games like they're actions games for years now and are just built different at this point.

Submit

I almost got the full set but I just need the knight armor to finish it.

Submit

Love that this got buffed to 51 poise. If you use a light weapon that gets most of its damage from base dmg (vs scaling) you can light roll with this set at RL125 with Erdtrees Favor +2 and Great Jar Arsenal. Feels amazing to have light roll with decent def and 51 poise. Worth the END investment.

Submit

Isn’t it from an old Souls game?

Submit

wish there were more medieval looking plate armors. even this one has too much engravings

Submit

As of 1.07 this is a really good set for PvE. It already had good stats, but now it has 51 poise which is a very good breakpoint for PvE enemies.

Submit

A little drab, but when you wanna go for a real classic Chosen Undead look, look no further

Submit

The Blue-Gold Kite Shield was basically made to match this set.

Submit

it's the one

Submit

As of patch 1.07, the poise for this set is 51.

Submit

This is the new lightest armor that has 51 poise!

Submit

Notice it has the same design on the front as the Elden Lord Set. It would make sense for a Tarnished knight that fought with Godfrey.

Submit

How can someone breathe in that helmet?

Submit

Sir Oscar the knight

Submit

Beautiful armor but not as beautiful as the fluted armor from demon souls remake that’s the best knight armor I’ve ever seen.

Submit

If you put some thought into it. This armor could have very well use to belong to the prisoner class before they were imprisoned

Submit

Ol' Reliable.

Submit

this is definitely one of the armors

Submit

Legendary

Submit

40 poise isn’t enough to help against even a mere footsoldier or pro soldier in this game. So, don’t bother considering that as a factor for this armor. The Iron Set looks really cool, is way cheaper, has some higher resistance for at least one stat, and only a little less in the rest.

Submit

This set looks like the one a knight would wear

Submit

Simple but still fairly stylish

Submit

One of the armours of all time

Submit

Worthwhile armor that is easily accessible. You want the plainest armor as soon as possible? This is the true all-reliable like the longsword. Not the best armor by any means but definitely the baseline when you need protection for your character.

Submit

the scale on the cuirass is absolutely awful; insanely wide and makes your character's torso look like a potato

Submit

Not bad. Not as good-looking as the DS3 knight set, but it's fairly stylish and the individual pieces match with a lot of other armors.

Submit

This is the best looking armor in game. But like others have said it really lacks cloak

Submit

truly one of the armours of All Time

Submit

I think the knight set from the ps5 version of demon souls is the best looking knight armor throughout all the fromsoftware games.

Submit

Visually this is a nice, clean, shiny, and well maintained version of the vagabond set. Which begs the question of... where is the damn sexy cape for the Knight Set?

Submit

Should be called John Darksoul set

Submit

John Dark Soul, we meet again.

Submit

This + Longsword + Beast Crest Heater Shield = Elden John

Submit

ds3 knight set looked better

Submit

Nice armor, but one question: why does it look so W I D E?

Submit

This set + the ice crest shield and the darkmoon greatsword go well together, it seems almost intentional. I still wish the set had a bit more poise (47 for 5 more units of weight would be rly nice)

Submit

this is the armor

Submit

Combine this with the vagabond helm for the classic dark souls style

Submit

Just make your waist thinner at the mirror in the roundtable hold and this set becomes 10/10

Submit

this is the armor

Submit

this is the armor

Submit

This armor has crazy good weight to poise/dmg negation ratio

Submit

this is the armor

Submit

this is the armor

Submit

If the unarmored boots bother you, the Redmane Knight Greaves fit extremely well. Color and texture are very similar.

Submit

If the unarmord boots bother you, the Radahn Knight Boots fit exceptionally well with the rest of the set and can be acquired very early in the game.

Submit

this is the armor

Submit

It seems the Vagabond set is just this armor but heavily worn, its most telling in the chest piece which has the same blue cloth and engraving on the chest.

Submit

The wiki does't say this on the set page, but it costs 13.500 runes for the full set

Submit

Tiny head set

Submit

Bit of a tip if you want to wear this or heavy knight armor in general: Bring your character's body sliders all the way down. Like I'm talking low double digits. This will make them look much more athletic. With the default sliders, you'll just end up looking tubby instead.

Submit

Clean, functional, and aesthetically pleasing. Love it

Submit

the chad set

Submit

I love this armor! My only gripe though is that weapons that go over the shoulder (one handed) in idle animation makes the teal cloth clip through the right shoulder pauldron. When you see it, you can't unsee...

Submit

Be a lot cooler if we could add a clean version of the cape from the Vagabond set

Submit

If you think about it, the game has 3 seemingly "poster" armors:
-Knight Set appears on the tutorial infos
-Raging Wolf Set appears on the trailers
-Fingerprint Set appears on the cover art

Submit

The Slayer of Demons back at it again.

Submit

A nice clean metal set. Others may not like it for being simple, but I believe there's beauty in simplicity.

Submit

The Knight chest piece has the highest poise to weight ratio of any armor I’ve encountered thus far.
CHEST:
Knight 1.79
Blaidd 1.6
Cleanrot 1.53
Royal Remains 1.41
Raging Wolf 1.33
Twinned 1.33

The greaves are all also very high.
LEGS:
Bull-Goat 1.71
Knight 1.67
Crucible 1.67
Blaidd 1.65
Scaled 1.61
Cleanrot 1.39

HELMET:
Crucible 1.36
Blaidd 1.355
Scaled 1.32
Knight 1.3
Blackflame 1.25
Raging Wolf 1.13
Cleanrot 1.09

Submit

Look guys, it's John Eldenring.

Submit

Why does the mail shirt go over the caftan near the arms but under it near the legs

Submit

ready for another adventure, old friend?

Submit

I love this set but I wish there were more realistic simple armors like this like a gothic set or a 14th century looking set that uses a bascinet with klappsvisor

Submit

Wish the mail shirt was consistent. Seems to be over the blue caftan or whatever near the arms but under it near the legs

Submit

Honestly, gives off more Demon's Souls than DS3 vibes

Submit

the only decent metal armor in the whole game afaic

Submit

The shoes being unarmored make this look like a cosplay

Submit

Love the design on this. I usually swap it out for something with better defenses like the Scaled or Crucible sets eventually, but this is some of the best-looking armour in the game.

Submit

Ashen one ?

Submit

I think they blew their load early with Dark Souls 3's Knight armor set. That was just perfect in every way, aside from how the helmet played with most other armors. This one I want to like but there's just something about it, both in its colors, its metal finish, and the way it proportions your body that I was found disappointed with. If modding wasn't so liable to get you banned in these games I'd install a model swap of DS3's immediately.

Submit

In Elden Ring, you can use all sorts of cool sorceries and special weapons to defeat your enemies!
*equips this set*
*equips longsword and kite shield*
Yup, time to game

Submit

“Hi, I’m normal.”

Submit

The Fingerprint Set seems to be this armor set, but crushed up. Really cool. Same weight and poise, similar stats across the board.

Submit

Trash casul armor

Submit

If you look closely at the patterns, the vagabond armor is just the knight armor that's been abused to hell and back.

Submit

neck gap ruins it for me

Submit

My only complaint is the boots. The tops of the feet aren't armored and it kinda sticks out.

Submit

Wish you could pull up the very visible blue hood on it. I wear it with the Greathelm, though, and I like it.

Submit

just the ds3 knight set mixed with the ds2 faraam set

Submit

Simple, clean knight armour with a smooth looking helm and a blue surcoat. No doubt this is our Elite Knight set, folks!

Submit

The set itself is gorgeous, but I wish I could alter it to change the color of the cloth to something other than Windows-98-Default-Desktop teal.

Submit

This armor looks so aggressively boring compared to the rest. But maybe that's the point.

Submit

Wish you can tailor this and give it a cape or hood.

Submit

Idk why- But my husk maidens aren't selling it- do I need to update?

Submit

damn, lady, what's with these prices? I work for a living out here

Submit

Is this alterable?? Would be neat if a cape can be added to this

Submit

Oscar? :(

Submit

How come my Heroes can't wear it? does they have class restriction?

Submit

ol' reliable.

Submit

Simple yet wonderful.

Submit

Just need the Elite version ...
