A battle-hardened deep elf fighter.

Useful Info

Deep elf knights are the toughest of the deep elf fighter-mages. Like many of their peers, they generate with long or short blades, light armour, and occasionally a bow or a buckler. Unlike their peers, they have nearly as much durability as an orc knight, but their offensive capabilities are only slightly improved. They are most commonly found in the Elven Halls and near the entrance to the Vaults.

Spells

Throw Icicle	3d20	5	Wizard flag
Force Lance	3d14(+2d14)	3	Wizard flag
Haste	—	—	Wizard flag
Invisibility	—	—	Wizard flag

Tips & Tricks

While by no means harmless, you usually have more to worry about from the various pure-caster deep elf types.
Be careful of them if they generate with a good weapon: a deep elf knight with a good long sword of flaming or electrocution can ruin your day.

History

Prior to 0.27, deep elf knights could have one of two possible spell sets:
- Stone Arrow (3d18), Force Lance (3d14), and Haste
- Throw Icicle (3d20), Haste, and Invisibility
Prior to 0.25, their first spell set had Iskenderun's Mystic Blast instead of Force Lance.

 ==Useful Info==
-'''Deep elf knights''' are the toughest of the [[list of deep elves|deep elf]] fighter mages. Like [[deep elf soldier]]s and [[deep elf fighter]]s, they generate with decent elven gear and can cast any spells an [[orc wizard]] is capable of. Unlike their peers, they have nearly as much durability as an [[orc knight]], but their offensive capabilities are only slightly improved. They can be found in the [[Elven Halls]] and some [[bailey]]s.
