Black Knight

Legendary · Force · HP · Bannerlords

Black Knight is a Legendary Force HP champion from the Banner Lords faction, a menacing mace-wielder who received a much-needed buff in September 2020 that turned him into a genuinely viable pick. He is a single-target Provoke tank with team support, best known as a standout answer to Kuldath the Magma Dragon in Doom Tower.

Core Strengths & Abilities

Relentless Single-Target Provoke: His A1, Heavy Blow, carries a 75% chance of placing Provoke for 1 turn on every basic attack — no cooldown, no books needed. This keeps priority targets like Kuldath locked onto him nearly constantly.

Team Sustain: Lower Visor (A2) places a 15% Continuous Heal and a 60% Increase DEF on all allies for 2 turns, on a booked 2-turn cooldown — meaning near-permanent uptime on two premium defensive buffs, a big reason for his Clan Boss 9 rating.

Hard to Kill: His Valorous passive grants him a 1-turn Unkillable buff whenever a single attack exceeds 15% of his MAX HP (2-turn cooldown), while Last Breath (A3) is an AoE whose damage scales with the HP he has lost.

Key Weaknesses

Boss-Dependent Control: Provoke does nothing against bosses immune to it, and outside his niches his numbers are modest — Iron Twins (2), Amius (3), and Chimera (5) are weak areas.

Black Knight fits best in Clan Boss (9), Ice Golem (8), and Provoke-vulnerable Doom Tower bosses, with solid Dragon and Fire Knight (7) utility.
