• Drop rate of items is extremely low, so players may need to join the Company of Champions or use several Bonfire Ascetics once they despawn in order to collect each item.
• They can parry, guard break, roll, jump attack, and heal themselves.
• In Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin, they bow to you and remain neutral unless you avoid killing the Drakekeepers or run past the glowing Dragon Knight near the end of the shrine. They do not turn hostile if you summon NPCs like Bashful Ray. They also turn hostile if they receive any sort of damage.
• The Dragon Knights only turn hostile in groups, as in if you run past or attack only one group, the next group of Dragon Knights will not attack you unless you also run past or attack them.
• Their hostility resets to neutral when the area reloads.
• In Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin, they turn hostile if you summon a player phantom or shade, or use a Seed of a Tree of Giants.
• In Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin, they do not turn hostile if you challenge or kill the Ancient Dragon.
• In Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin, they do not turn hostile if you take the Petrified Egg.
