Where to find Death Knight armor in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

In this rephrased version, I’ve tried to make the text more conversational while maintaining the original meaning:

The latest DLC for Elden Ring, titled The Shadow of the Erdtree, has introduced a fantastic array of new armor sets. Among these, the Death Knight armor truly stands out as one of the top choices. With impressive stats and an excellent sense of style, it ticks all the boxes. Here’s where you can locate it in the game.

How to get the Death Knight armor set in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

The Death Knight armor set is concealed deep within the gloomy catacombs adjacent to the eastern Abyssal Woods’ road in the Dim realm. To locate it, first, find the covert passage from the main bridge leading into Shadow Keep. Then, journey southward along the river until you eventually arrive at its base at the foot of a mystical cliff, where the catacombs are situated.

Once in the Catacombs, it’s a fairly straight shot for most of the way to the Death Knight set:

  • From the starting Site of Grace, proceed straight and take the first right.
  • Continue forward past the enemies, making sure to avoid or deal with the explosive-spitting Imp.
  • Drop past the next two ladders and deal with the missile-shooting mage.

  • You’ll reach the first stone elevator in a lit room. Take it down.
  • In the room beyond the elevator, take the stairs on the right down, then hug the left railing.

  • You should see a broken opening in the railing. Carefully drop down to the lower level.

  • Immediately turn around and go through the doorway on your right.
  • The item on the corpse in the next room holds the Death Knight set. Beware the wizard and imp enemies that share the room with it.

After obtaining the Death Knight armor set, proceed onward into the Darklight Catacombs, then toward the Abyssal Woods, where more terrors lie in wait. Should you have overlooked the armor set during your initial journey, quickly teleporting to any other location is a perfectly valid option.
