Knight's Lightning Spear is a Dragon Cult incantation in Elden Ring. It comes from the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion.
Knight's Lightning Spear is one of the incantations of the capital's ancient dragon cult, once taught only to the most accomplished knights and now a lost art in the Lands Between. It hurls a lightning spear while ancient dragon crests appear and launch follow-up spears in the direction the caster faced, and charging adds more crests and a bolt of lightning on impact. Even if the caster is interrupted after casting, the crests still fire their spears. Its uncharged cast is noticeably slower than Lightning Spear, though both take the same time when charged, and the Gravel Stone Seal and Death Knight set boost it. It suits dragon cult faith builds that want more lightning damage from range than a single spear.
Effect
Hurls a lightning spear while ancient dragon crests launch follow-up spears at the target; charging adds more crests. Each cast costs 29 FP and 31 stamina and takes up one memory slot.
