How to beat the Golden drake knights
By Koning Banaan
In this guide I will show you how to easily kill the golden drake knights.
Some may consider this to be an exploit because you're stunlocking the enemy.

Edit: White rabbit has recently nerfed the golden drake knights, and they are now much easier to kill.

Requirements
The only thing you will need to have unlocked for this is Jaco of Balius' store.

Farming shards
First of you should farm some shards.
I like to farm in Emulvaro's Observatory where you can kill the first enemy for 208 shards.



How to unlock this area: This area is unlocked after you use the crest of gaia on the elevator. The crest of Gaia can be bought for 1100 shards in Jaco's store.
Spending your shards
Once you have around 1000 shards go to Jaco of Balius' store and spend all your shards on crystal bombs. You don't really need 1000 shards, 550 should also work but just to be safe.



The fight
Go to the golden drake knight that you want to get of and stand in front of him, far enough so that he doesn't agro.



Equip your Crystal bombs and spam them.


Once he jumps in the air just finish him with a jumping attack.

Conclusion
Yes, I know that stunlocking them with bombs is not a "legit" way to kill these guys but I saw that people were struggling with them so I decided to make a Guide.

This is kind of an exploit so this might get patched.

these fuckers are harder to kill than bosses. . .

just gonna say...stunlocking an enemy is "legit" in my book. if the devs didn't want players to stunlock enemies, they shouldn't have made the enemies vulnerable to stunlocking. . .

@.rabbit @Saltedniptz These used to be really difficult to kill but they nerfed them into the ground.

They are extremely easy to parry and can be Kicked out of Gurad. Why Cheese?

@swole squidward I know, I made this guide before they made it possible to run them over with your horse.

A funny thing that I found is if you can access your horse in areas with these knights, you can simply run them over, killing them instantly

Seriously? People are that bad that cant actually beat the knights? Im on ng+4 and theyve been easy since first playthrough you just need enough gear for them. So many ways to kill them, you can jump up with halber/spear/longsword you can kite wtih bleed on assassin, you can straight up face murder them on blood knight, or you hit and run on scythe. And dont even talk about wizards you just one shot them. They are fine as is people need to get out of the habit of games holding their hand.
