Night's Cavalry Set | Elden Ring Wiki

Wait, you don't have to kill them all for it? Just the two in snowfield? I wish I'd been to this page sooner. Damn.

Submit

altered the helmet, and never remove the helmet, this is the way.

Submit

for all your goth elden ring character needs

Submit

this armor goes so hard with the skeletal mask from the Ravenmount assassin set

Submit

Imagine being disappointed by this set because it looks so awesome yet it stats suck. Couldn't be me. Fashion over defensive stats in any souls games. Just git gud

Submit

It’d be cool if this set gave you a percentage based bonus to horseback damage. Like the crucible or omen sets.

Submit

sick drip

Submit

I love how this set looks, but it's a shame that you can't change the color of other metallic armor pieces to match the dark steel of this one

Submit

Great set it actually looks better on a female character than male

Tip: when you see the siloets of the Nights cavalry agro 1 of the Nights cavalry with a kucri or a ranged armament and take it out

Submit

While the nights cavalry are indeed a reference to the Nazgul, since they are 9, and they wear black attires and ride funeral steeds.
However, the design of the armor looks rather similar to the ones we can find Guts wearing in Berserk. There is nothing wrong with it, they decided to make NC wear a heavy armor rather than cover it with a black tunic, and the armor looks alike Berserk one. Its perfect for cosplaying a Nazgul AND Guts, and is also very pretty overall, as it fits almost any build, has good poise/defenses weitgh ratio

Submit

bruh if you kill the night as he is getting on the horse it might glitch killing him but not his horse

you can proceed to punch the horse and watch it run away but do nothing, have fun with temporary fren

Submit

HAI YAI FORCES!

Submit

>wow, black armor! is this a guts cosplay item!?

Seriously. Enough is enough.

Submit

For some reason, the 2 Night's Cavalry just aren't in this caravan in my game. Instead there's two mercenaries with crossbows. Anyone know why I don't have the right enemies and can't get this armor?

Submit

Damn, I love this set. Edgy-without-being-cringe/10.

Submit

This armor being locked in one of the last areas of the game is really weird, because it's not particularly strong or even exclusive to that area, since you see Night's Cavalry pretty early on the game

Submit

Fashion over stats any day, this is my set

Submit

black iron tarkus!!?? is that you!?

Submit

What's so special about 51 poise?

Submit

Really cool looking and has decent defense/weight. A shame tho it comes so ridiculous late game that at that point i could just equip really heavy armor and stay at midroll.

Submit

Can we all take a moment to appreciate this set for being decently well rounded, very nice looking, and might be the only set that has an angry face helmet... 10/10

Submit

Has enough poise to take a light attack now. Thanks 1.07

Submit

Very late in the game I'm on lvl 98 and my gear is far better than this cool armor

Submit

This set and Malikets Helmet together make me look like Guts, Iam happy, but I also want a Falcon helmet for a Griffith cosplay with the Loretta armor

Submit

This with Gideon Ofnir's Helmet, nightrider flail and a straight sword with flaming strike or fire grease is proly the closest thing you could get to a Witch King of Angmar cosplay.

Submit

At the time im arriving at the mountaintops, i already have a full build. This armor is meaningless, itll never go into a build of mine. You want to play the game as a Night Cavalry? Sure, you can get the Weapons pretty much from the get go. But the armor? Nah its pretty much at the end. I want to stick to an Armor, i want to play the whole game with the armor. What a damn shame. What did they even think? The game is pretty much over at that point. Dont lock cool armor and weapons behind so much of the game, Fromsoft. Im willing to traverse the entire map, dying on my way there a dozen times but its an adventure. Its part of the fun. Then i have that heavy armor that i cant even wear and then i grow into it by playing the game. Im beyond disappointed with this, because this armor looks so cool and i really wanted to make a NC Cosplay build. But Fromsoft had to Ruin ny dreams.

Submit

Holy Poop! is that a berk refrenze!?

Submit

The Guts cosplay set. If only the helmet looked a little more like the berserker armor.

Submit

Anyone wanna trade this?

Submit

I personally love this armor set. Really adds flair to the whole Black knight look. Add a spiked crown to the helm and you would look like Sauron!

Submit

"Cower in FEAR of the Night"
"The Drip Hands of the Fell Omen will broke thee no quarter..."

Submit

nights cavaldrip

Submit

This is basically the fallen knight set (ds3) of elden ring

Submit

Im gonna use this for my raiden cosplay. I apologize in advance for using a RoB

Submit

Why does it have so little poise? T_T

Submit

Edge, Lord

Submit

I just wish it wasn't so filthy. Bloodstains go away when you rest at a site of grace with other clothing...

Submit

This is about the closest thing we get to the black iron armor, rest in peace tarkus thanks for fighting the iron golem with me only to get thrown off from the grab attack.

Submit

From one perspective this could be a nazgul/sauron set. The other is the berserker armor from berserk (closet in the game). Third aspect, with the bandit hood, is the forlorn armor from Dark Souls 2 (different color scheme and capeish).

Submit

Put your grasses on

Submit

Why is all of the good looking armor sets at an end game area Jesus from soft stop that

Submit

I just went to the cart and there is no cavalry there.

Submit

Oh look another guts cosplayer. how original

Submit

I am vengeance.

Submit

needs a poise buff

Submit

If you replace the helmet with Fia's hood, you more or less look like a Nazgul. And if you have the sick glowing yellow eyes from the Frenzied Flame, you just look ****ing COOL. Really sells a corrupt inhuman look.

Submit

drip

Submit

This set actually fits well with a blood themed build. As per description - "Pitch-black armor thinly painted with dried blood".
It gets coated with fresh blood throughout your murderous journey, and it really stands out a lot more being pitch black armor.

Submit

Combine the head and chest w/ Lionel's arms and boots for extra poise and dmg reduction while still keeping the black iron aesthetic. The Night's cav chestpiece causes thick leg armor to become way thinner and it's really cool

Submit

These two will reset their aggro if they get too far away from the caravan. They will literally stop fighting you and just start walking back towards the direction of the caravan. Pick them off then.

Submit

Definitely the closest armor set to the berzerker armor albeit pre guts and a little less skull-like but sadly the maliketh hem doesn't allow for plumage removal so this is the best we got outside of going helm less in which case the bliadd set might be better if only for the better-looking cape.

Submit

Works well with Fire Prelate Greaves.

Submit

pair this with the Royal Remains Helm and a scythe for the perfect Harbinger of Death look

Submit

I really wish it had some sort of passive to make it stand out, like enhancing attacks on horseback or something, kinda like how the Crucible Knight set boosts their specific incantations.

Submit

One of my biggest peeves with this game; why so much late game armor/weapons (which usually look much cooler) are blatantly worse then ones you can find way earlier with little to no effort. I love the Night Calvary set so much, but it's stats are just meh compared to even the banished knight set, why!? :(

Submit

You can aggro them one at a time if you have a bow...saved me a LOT of pain xD

Submit

What would be a good replacement for greaves and gauntlets to get higher poise?

Submit

I use the night cavalry chest(altered), glove and pant with commoner headband(altered), looks very nice!

Submit

Griffith!!!!

Submit

For me, fighting them one at a time makes the other vanish. I can hear the other rider horse's foot steps, but seems invisible?

Submit

Ah yes, I love the Night's Knight set.

Submit

I stood on the rocks by the dead dude in chair that has a stonesword key, waited for the caravan to come by and spammed them with Rock Sling. Occasionally they'd come up and hit me so I'd have to swing a sword but they'd usually then return to the bottom. Once one of them ran off not to be found, killed the other but they both respawned.
After a few tries I killed them both got the 'Enemy Felled' message and got the set. Then where the last one was the spooky horse remained. I could damage him ceaselessly but not kill him. Now the horse is just standing there looking at me.
I wish I could keep him. I really really wish I could keep him. Please can I keep him?

Submit

Pair with the confessor hood for all your edgy bloodborne fashion needs.

Submit

NOO why is it so late into the game!
i gotta wait until the endgame to get the ultimate elden bling, quite poetic

Submit

One of the most badass looking sets in the game. I suggest wearing the bandit mask with it. Looks great with Maliketh's weapon, too.

Submit

you have to kill both, it isnt just dropped by "one"

Submit

Why do people use Blaidd's armour for Guts builds when this exists?

Submit

Surprised this set didn’t have a stat bonus. Like 5% increase in physical attacks at night.

Submit

This set looks cool, but its a shame that its so weak in terms of protection. Even the Scaled Armor is better than this and you get that way earlier in the game. Imo, this should have been a heavy knight set, as it even looks like it should weight a ton, being plate. I dont really understand why do they make these knight sets so weak and light. When i saw the stats on this set after some rage inducing mounted combat, i legit went "Wtf? Why did i even bother?". Then they decide to make the heaviest stuff look so ridicilous and ugly, that theres no way in hell iam gonna ever use them.

I guess the perfect solution to this, would be to be able to alter the sets to your playstyle, maybe being able add more protection but increase the weight even more, or being able to reduce weight even more with the cost of protection. But that system is so barebones, i dont think ive ever used it once on any piece of gear. It seriously needs to be improved upon.

The fight itself though. The only difficult thing about it is Torrent dying constantly from one-two hits and then you are just lying on the floor, being pummeled to death. The more i play this game, the more i seem to want to make glue out of him. But you can semi-cheese the AI by standing on the nearby rocks, where they spawn. They will occasionally run against the rocks under you, or even just give up on you. Then you can just use range attacks to whittle them down or fight them 1v1. They seem to want to follow the caravan, even if there is a fight going on.

Submit

You can cheese them pretty easy. If you lead them (one at a time) back to the inner snowfield grace their AI will break and they will just ride without getting aggro, even when attacked.

Submit

Perfect for my dark/corrupted paladin character.

Submit

This paired with all knowing helm = Sauron

Submit

If you don the helmet of the all knowing it has a dollar store witchking vibe

Submit

Make sure you beat BOTH the Night Cavalry enemies in Consecrated Snowfields to get this, beating just one isn't enough and they will respawn if you rest at a site of grace if you don't beat both

Submit

Best looking armor in the game by far

Submit

Champion Headband goes very well as an alternative helmet: https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Champion+Headband

Submit

They don’t spawn for me. Reloaded at night 20+ times. Road the caravan al the way to the end. Then I went back and found I had missed killing one Knight Calvary in Forbidden Lands. Still no spawn.

Submit

For those who haven't had it spawn for you, make sure it's night time. You could also try resting at the nearby grace (Inner Consecrated Snowfield) WHILE it's night time. Worked for me, hope this helps!

Submit

It would seem that if you get the cavalry far away enough from the carriage their pathfinding will break and they'll go in for an attack but stop to return to the carriage, I was able to cheese the Galive wielding one by using the great glintstone sorcery and shooting them as they were walking away.

If only there was a dark looking medium shield to go with it and the flail.

The fight for this armor is possibly one of the most difficult group encounters in the game! 2 Cavalry in an area with lightning bolts that can one shot you, multiple stealth infantrymen, you get invaded by an npc slightly down the path, and there is a giant frost spirit a bit further down the path! Feels intentionally difficult since the rewards are great!

Submit

The snowfields one is bugged and not dropping anything.

Submit

the new update must of broke getting this. Killed him 5 times and didn't get it

Submit

I wear this with the altered helm and use the dark moon greatsword and regal scepter. Looks quite weird lol

Submit

I’m not saying it’s a reference or anything silly like that - but aside from the helmet, this set really does remind me of Gut’s Black Swordsman armor, the heavy cloak and jet black plate work really well for that sort of vibe. Makes for a good “evolved” Vagabond or Inquisitor type character.

Submit

I killed one of the knights calvary in the snow field but I cannot find the other. Any fixes? It doesn't spawn with the caravan

Submit

Gamer Set

Submit

the cooler forlorn set

Submit

Boss fight doesnt spawn for me? Something wrong?

Submit

Yo this armor is sick! Anyone on ps4/5 with dupe save care to drop me this set for a new character??

Submit

Think this set might have been swapped with Royal Knight armor under types in the inventory seeing how this set shares a similar weight/defence with Blaidd's while Royal Knight shares similar stats with crucible/veteran/Radahn.

Submit

This really gives me nazgul vibes from lord of the rings. Just need to find a black tattered hood. Could make for some awesome cosplay builds

Submit

I like to believe that this is just a reference to Monty Python's Black Knight.

Submit

BUG FOUND! I killed the flail knight but died to the halberd knight and now they are not spawning. All I wanted was to cosplay a Night Calvary :(

Submit

Shame there's no shield to compliment my Black Iron Tarkus build, but this set altered to remove the plume and cloth, and the Great Sword will have to do.

Submit

Alter the chest piece, replace the helm with the Black Hood, and it's perfection.

Submit

I'm sick of the chest piece having all the cool parts. Put something on the legs.
