It just so happens that one of the best starting classes that lets players do that is theKnight.
It should be much easier to replicate each of these builds.
Note that these builds are all tuned for PvE; your mileage in PvP will vary.
Every build listed in this article can be found in theDark Souls 3 Fextralife wiki.
That’s why getting acquainted with the mechanics via Dark Souls 3 is a good plan.
Here are more of the best knight build in Dark Souls 3.
For armor, just wear whichever enables you to avoid fat rolling.
That’s what the pure strength build is all about.
In any case, the gameplay is straightforward.
Lunge at the enemy and turn them into pancakes.
This idea extends to this knight-themed build.
The greatsword’s long range and blasphemous poise break should be enough to shock and awe the enemy.
Just avoid the fat roll weight.
It can stunlock opponents and has a fast attack and good range.
Meanwhile, the greatshield should help you preserve your life.
However, the armor can be any fashionable item you want.
An off-hand shield is useful for absorbing an incoming attack you didn’t expect.
Skilled players can two-hand the sword instead, utilizing rolls to get out of danger.
A Dexterity knight might sound odd, but it’s surprisingly strong in PvE.
It isn’t bad in PvP either, capable of destroying opponents in a few swings.
Just be careful of players adept at parrying, as they’ll punish you for spamming the same attack.
Focusing on strength, this build crushes opponents with devastating swings that are buffed by Carthus Flame Arc.
If swinging a flaming sword wasn’t cool enough, what about turning enemies against each other?
Using four different weapon buffs seems excessive, but every enemy in Dark Souls 3 hasunique strengths and weaknesses.
This applies to both PvE and PvP.
The brilliance of this build lies in its versatility.
Its item requirements can be met in the early-game, and there’s no spell management required.
This is the archetypical knight build in the best way possible.
For the left hand, it needs a Golden Wing Crest Shield +5 and a Talisman of your choice.
Armor is Executioner Helm, Silver Knight Armor, Knight Gauntlets, and Dark Leggings.
Played properly, this character can output some fantastic damage.
