Harnessing the power of dragon hearts in Elden Ring can make for a formidable build. The Dragon Knight is a flavorful, damage-dealing way to take on The Lands Between, but it requires some late-game grinding. So, let’s spread our wings.

The Dragon Knight in Elden Ring primarily uses Dragon Communion Incantations to deal a lot of damage over time. However, he should have enough physical stats to wield powerful weapons like Colossal Swords. Start the game as a Wretch since you want all stats except Intelligence. The build below is at level 150.
These stats are all over the place compared to most builds, but they serve a purpose. An Arcane of 60 will give you good scaling with the Dragon Communion Seal, a powerful spellcasting tool for boosting Dragon Communion Incantations. A Dragon Knight will want to have the minimum Faith to cast these spells, and unfortunately Greyoll's Roar is the cheapest at 28.
A 50 Vigor is for eating hits, which is great for late-game Elden Ring. A 26 Endurance is for better armor—what good is a knight if he can’t wear good gear? At 26, you’ll need some Talismans to wear heavy armor—a sacrifice we’re willing to make. A 25 Mind gives you 147 FP, which is fine. You can cast a few Breaths before reloading, depending on how long you can cast them during combat.
