{{Quote|It put up a hand and swallowed the rocket with a wall of shadow.|[[Grimoire]] description.}}
Knights are serious business on the battlefield. Their heavy armor and powerful weaponry allow them to put down Guardians with ease. They are the highest ranked infantry, so they have access to a bigger arsenal than their lower-ranked counterparts. Knights are most commonly armed with a [[Boomer]], which they use to siege and overtake the player's position in an attempt to lock down an important area with a barrage of explosive [[Arc]] bolts.
