Skeleton Knights

Skeleton Knights are an Enemy type in Dragon's Dogma.

Overview

Skeleton Knights can be found in certain areas of Gransys at night and in underground areas where other Undead reside.

Skeleton Knights comprise variants equivalent to both the Warrior and Fighter vocation - one carries a sword, the other a longsword. The warrior-type is slightly less common than the fighter-type.

Their behaviour is much like the lesser Skeleton soldiers, but the knights attack with more power and stronger weapons and armor.
