Story

Kingdom Hearts II

Armored Knights appear for the first time towards the Battle of 1000 Heartless in Hollow Bastion. In the battle proper, Sora has to singlehandedly defeat a thousand Heartless, many of which are Armored Knights. Later, during a face-off against Saïx, Sora is surrounded by a group of Armored Knights summoned by Saïx, who expects him to fight them and release the hearts contained inside them. It is then that Sora and company are dragged into the Realm of Darkness by Maleficent.

Armored Knights appear in the scene in The Hall of Empty Melodies, but don't appear in any other part of the world.

Strategy

Attacks
  • Tripping Slash: Lunging sword attack
  • Spin Rush: Horizontal spin attack
  • Jump Rush: Jumping sword thrust
Reaction Commands
  • Rising Sun: Sora will rise into the air, then soar through the Knight. You can use this move five times consecutively without touching the ground, and it can be used against other enemies once it has been started.

They have very low HP, and their Reaction Command, Rising Sun, is very powerful. However, they do tend to swarm in large numbers.
