Dusk Knight

(The idea behind Dusk Knight was from the concept bosses for a kickstarter goal, two bosses, Dusk Knight and King's Golem. They were eventually fused into the Kingsmoulds enemy in the official game).

The Dusk Knight is a boss added for the Pale Light DLC along with the King's Golem.

Lore
Like the rest of the Kingsmould, the Dusk Knight was constructed by the Pale King using Void. When the Pale King went into hiding in one of the King's Molds mind, he had the Dusk Knight protect the Throne Room in the case of an emergency. The Dusk Knight is the commander of a small army made of Kingsmoulds but most of the Kingsmoulds perished due to the void.

In-game events
The Dusk Knight is found at the Throne Room where the Pale King is. Before the throne room, is a bench in case you die due to the Dusk Knight's strong attacks. The Dusk Knight will only fight the player if they attack the Pale King's corpse. Only then, will the battle commence. When the battle starts, Dusk knight will start by drawing their nail and knocking the Player off the throne.

Behaviour and Tactics
In addition to having similar attacks


 * Swipe: They slash at the Knight in a wide arch up to three time consecutively.
 * Backstep: Dusk Knight does a quick backwards dash to reposition for another attack.
 * Boomerang: They throw their claw-blade at the Knight that then returns to them in a similar fashion to a boomerang like how the Mantis Lords fight.
 * Leap: Dusk Knight leaps at the knight and swipes his nail overhead. If the Dusk Knight misses, his nail gets stuck into the ground leaving him vulnerable for 2 seconds as he tries to get the nail out of the ground.
 * Tendrils: The Dusk Knight's cape turns black and transforms into 2 void tendrils. They try to attack the vessel but this can be dodged by jumping over it.
 * Block: Like Moss Knights, if attacked the Dusk Knight will summon a shield using magic that takes the form of a giant King's Crest.

Dream Nail Dialogue

 * For the King, I can't fail.
 * How dare you strike him down.
 * Those who raise their nail against their king shall perish!

Location
The Dusk Knight can be in the Throne Room beside the Pale King's corpse.

Tips
The Dusk Knight is a tough enemy to beat if you are trying to get the King's Soul charm. Stepping sideways when he uses his Leap move should be good enough for dodging. Other attacks like the Tendrils and Boomerang attack can be jumped over and pogoed as if they were spikes. Dashing when he backsteps is a good way of keeping the Dusk Knight under pressure and should help you get plenty of hits in.
