The Night’s Cavalry Set is a complete pitch-black collection of armor pieces in Elden Ring that players can acquire from a Field Boss duo found within the snowy tundra of the Inner Consecrated Snowfield. The outfit’s design is one of the best-looking medium armor sets, especially for those roleplaying as a Greatsword-wielding Dark Knight. While the Night’s Cavalry Set doesn’t feature any unique passive bonuses, the pieces offer decent protection and can be customized at a Site of Grace.
During one’s travels, Tarnished adventurers will doubtless have encountered the Night’s Cavalry, elite Field Bosses that roam the roads of the Lands Between after nightfall. Likewise, the Night’s Cavalry Set is obtained by defeating these enemies, specifically a Flail and Glaive-wielding duo within the western half of the Mountaintop of the Giants region. However, the challenge comes not from finding or fighting the Night’s Cavalries but from gaining access to the Consecrated Snowfield.
To get the Night’s Cavalry Set in Elden Ring, Tarnished must first activate the hidden mechanism of the Grand Lift of Rold by finding both halves of the Haligtree Secret Medallion. The right half can be easily acquired by visiting the Village of the Albinaurics in southern Liurnia and speaking with Albus, an Albinauric disguised as a pot. On the other hand, adventurers might run into trouble getting to the left side of the medallion. Located on Castle Sol’s Rooftop, Haligtree Secret Medallion (Left) is obtained by beating Commander Niall, a powerful late-game boss that drops Veteran’s Prosthesis upon defeat. Once the medallion is complete, return to the lift and enter the Consecrated Snowfield in the western side of the Mountaintops of the Giants.
Night’s Cavalry Set Location In Elden Ring
After reaching the Inner Consecrated Snowfield Site of Grace, change the time of day to nightfall and then travel southwest towards a traveling convoy. This enemy caravan will also spawn during the day and can be looted to acquire the Flowing Curved Sword. However, two Night’s Cavalry Field Bosses in Elden Ring will accompany the escort at nighttime. Defeat these two elite mobs to receive the Night’s Cavalry Set and a legendary Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone.
To defeat the convoy’s Night’s Cavalry (Flail) and Night’s Cavalry (Glaive), players are recommended to use ranged attacks to lure one away from the group. After taking the single horseman down, it will be much easier to battle the second rider. Furthermore, this boss duo can be cheesed by luring one away far enough from the caravan for it to “deaggro” and return to the carriage. Tarnished can attack it in the back as it slowly returns until it aggros onto the player again. This process will take longer than actively fighting the duo but is, nonetheless, an effective strategy in Elden Ring.
Elden Ring is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
