Description
Many knights were sent to the fringes, where they were forced to start anew with only despair for company. These fierce warriors were each and all accomplished. Perhaps that is why, despite their territorial losses, they were still named knights.
Notes
Due to their weakness to Lightning, Lightning-related items like Lightning Spear or Bolt of Gransax are recommended to eliminate them. Charging attack is the best opportunity for attack, as recovery after it gives more that enough time to perform backstab. Farming Tips:. Banished Knight's Halberd and Banished Knight Set (with altered helm and altered chest armor) The knight downstairs from the Rampart TowerGrace grace in Stormveil CastleDungeon can be easily farmed. However, a 8 halberd also drops from Edgar, either by following his questline until his invasion at Revenger's ShackGrace, or by killing him in earlier encounters. Banished Knight's Greatsword, Banished Knight's Shield, and Banished Knight Set (with unaltered helm and altered chest armor) The knight at the Cathedral of Dragon CommunionGrace in CaelidRegion is the easiest to farm. After resting at or traveling to the grace, go north to the doorway of the cathedral. The knight should have just started patrolling and can be backstabbed. The knight past the birds at the Rampart TowerGrace grace is also a great early game area to farm the Greatsword, yet a bit harder to farm than in CaelidRegion. Stormveil CastleDungeon farming route: Travel to Rampart TowerGrace grace point in Stormveil CastleDungeon. Pop a Silver-Pickled Fowl Foot if you have one. Head into the rampart tower and downstairs to your first Banished Knight (halberd). Defeat him by sneaking up or parrying or backstab fishing. Head back up to the hallway by the grace point. Take the lift directly across the hall from the entrance to the room with the point. Send it back up before you hop off. Sprint through the room where the Grafted Scion was. Turn right and kill the three commoners and the sword Exile Soldier. Head up the stairs and kill the spear Exile Soldier. Head into the next room and kill the second Banished Knight (halberd). You should be able to sneak approach and backstab pretty easily. Leave out that room opposite the way you came in. Follow the path directly across the next room, through the breezeway, then veer left and straight ahead through another interior room. Make a right here and outside you'll see a Flame Spear guy in the distance. Approach and kill him. This should aggro the 3rd Banished Knight (greatsword and shield). I usually shield and sidestep for a Backstab on this one. Or use a heavy spell to stagger. Fast travel back to Rampart TowerGrace and repeat. Banished Knight's Greatsword, Banished Knight Set (with altered helm and unaltered chest armor) The red-eyed spectral Banished Knight on the castle wall of Castle SolDungeon can be baited into teleporting onto a higher platform (the roof of a room), after which the player can jump or roll to the walkway atop the wall that the Banished Knight was standing on just before. Then the Banished Knight will slowly walk towards the player, at which point it will fall to its death, hopefully leaving the extremely rare unaltered Banished Knight Armor on the ground. The player can walk off the edge of the end of the walkway to safely fall to ground level, then make their way back to the loot, which will be in the corner, behind a tombstone. Quicker, but risker, method can be done from Castle Sol RooftopGrace (unlocked after beating boss of the arena). From the boss fight arena, player can make Banished Knight teleport with an arrow. Alternatively, from Church of the EclipseGrace site of grace go for ladder on the right of Banished Knight at the front of the Church. Then turn left, go straight and go left. Eliminate wolfs first and then Banished Knight. Banished Knight Lore
