Alonne Knight

Alonne Knights are enemies in Dark Souls II.

Location
Found throughout the Iron Keep.

Description
Tall armoured knights that wield Katanas and longbows.

The Knights of Alonne were loyal servants of the Old Iron King who were tasked with defending his fortress from intruders. Even after the castle was swallowed by lava, and the king was transformed into a demon, the knights continued to serve their master and protect the ruins of his kingdom.

Strategy
Alonne Knights don't posses a lot of health and are easily staggered by attacks. However they are aggressive fighters and will often hip backwards to avoid attacks. Their swords are capable of causing Bleed, even though a shield and they often attack in pairs.

Knights wielding bows can be very dangerous at a distance and their arrows cause high knockback. This can be very dangerous when travelling on narrow walkways or ledges.
