Sanctum Knight

Description


The sanctum knights renounced their own
flesh to eternally guard the Sanctum
from Sir Yorgh and his Drakeblood Knights.

These guardian knights were sentenced to eternal
stewardship of the Sanctum in a clandestine ritual
carried out in the great depths, but today the
sanctum receives nary a visitor.

  • Once their armor is destroyed, they will be permanently in non-ghost form.
  • They cannot be backstabbed while in ghost form.
  • They cannot cancel their chain attacks, making them extremely easy to backstab.
  • 4 of the 9 Sanctum Knights found in Dragon Sanctum don't actually use crossbows, even though they appear to have ammo.
