DuskKnight Armor
This guide shows everything you need to make the DuskKnight armour set: DuskKnight Boots, DuskKnight Platelegs, DuskKnight Platebody and DuskKnight Helmet. It starts with one total list of everything to gather, then breaks it down piece by piece with the steps in order. Every amount, level and source on this page is worked out from the game data.
About the DuskKnight set
The set is DuskKnight Boots, DuskKnight Platelegs, DuskKnight Platebody and DuskKnight Helmet. You need the Dusk Knight Schematics in your inventory for every forging and assembling step. You only need 1, because they are not used up. The boots, platelegs and platebody each need an Exquisite Silk line from the Tailor Stall, and the silk drops from Crimson Weavers.
How to read this guide
1. Look at the Total gathering list. It adds up everything for one of each piece in the set. 2. Then follow Step by step for each piece. The gathering steps come first, then the smelting, forging, buying and assembling steps in the order you do them. 3. The Needs column is the skill level you need for that step. 4. Each piece is counted on its own, so leftover parts from one piece are not used for another. Where a craft makes more than one part, the step says how many crafts to do. Anything marked Y in the Members column is for members only.

Tips
Ebony Bars can only be smelted in the Dwarven Furnace, and Ebony Dust can be smelted instead of Ebony Ore at the same amount. The Dwarven Furnace guide explains how its heat works. These are the amounts the game data adds up to, and the Ebony Ore total is very large.
The silk line is bought at the Tailor Stall in Valen Gate. You hand over the Exquisite Silk plus some Coins, so keep the Coins in your inventory as well.
The Dusk Knight Schematics are given by the Valen City blacksmith in conversation. What you need to do before the blacksmith gives them to you is not confirmed yet. See the Smithing guide for the latest.
A hammer is needed to use the anvil. The Smithing guide has the hammers, gloves and gems that make crafting faster.
