Black and Dread Knights are level 6 creatures of Necropolis town. They are recruited from the Hall of Darkness.

"Knights have a 20% chance of cursing opponents they strike. Cursed creatures inflict only minimum damage in their own attacks. Dread knights' attacks also have a 20% chance of inflicting double damage death blows." ^{RoE manual}

General Tactics and Info

The Dread Knights are considered to be the best level 6 unit, alongside the Naga Queens. They also have the highest attack, defense and health for a level 6 unit, accompanied by the largest damage range.

Abilities

Special ability curse

Black and Dread Knights' curse ability behaves slightly different from the Curse spell as it is not considered fire school spell. This is due to a fact that the ability is not affected by Fiery Fields terrain, and creatures with immunity to fire magic (e.g. Fire Elementals) are not affected by it. However, the ability is affected by the Magic Plains.

Special ability death blow

Dread Knights' special ability death blow gives them 20% chance of dealing double base damage when attacking a creature stack. The game information states that Dread Knights would deal double damage when the death blow occurs, but that is not technically correct as it only doubles the base damage. In other words, bonuses from Offense, Luck or attack-defense difference are not doubled. See damage calculation for more specific information about the matter.

Heroes with a specialty

Tamika the Death Knight has black knights as a specialty, which increases the Attack and Defense skills of any Black Knights or Dread Knights for each level attained after 6th level, and gives them a speed bonus of 1.
Lord Haart the Death Knight increases the Attack and Defense skills of any Black Knights or Dread Knights +5 and damage +10.

-Resurrection is one the most powerful spells in the game.  Using it together with Expert [[Earth Magic]] and [[Intelligence]], a hero can basically resurrect their entire army if successful with the [[Blind]] spell. Interestingly enough, the spell does not work on [[undead]] but can still appear in mage guilds of [[Necropolis]].

-Can anyone please confirm... if your units die during the battle, and you ressurect them, you get them back after the battle ends ONLY if you have mastery in earth magic? For some reason on some heroes, sometimes, I ressurect the units and at the end of the battle it still says I have losses. --[[User:LlVIU|LlVIU]] ([[User talk:LlVIU|talk]]) 14:29, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

-:I believe it only requires Advanced Earth Magic.  Expert obviously also works, and Basic Earth Magic is definitely not good enough. [[User:Ibraesil|Ibraesil]] ([[User talk:Ibraesil|talk]]) 03:05, 30 October 2019 (UTC)
