Information
Casual Play

Orange Knight is a good character for casual play. Their fire magic attacks allows for them to cause a hit of damage overtime, and not many enemies resist fire, making it do a lot of knockback to most enemies. Orange Knights splash attack has a long range which can help a casual player keep their distance from their enemies. However, investing into magic can be a set back because of Enemies That Resist his fire, making a level like Lava World and Wizard Castle Interior hard if you have a magic centered build. Their splash attack isn't particularly good on bosses either.

Advanced tactics

Orange Knight is decent for advanced play. Their elemental infusion is worse than armor pierce, however, it allows for an infinite stunlock on every humanoid enemy, which is only particularly useful on full moon. Their splash also does good damage on the beefy Brute. However, their splash attack isn't particularly good on bosses without proper positioning.

Involvement
Orange Knight is one of the King's Knights, to whom they serve with loyalty, helping to get the princesses back and defeating the Evil Wizard.

Magic
Splash Attack "Fire Blast"Element: Fire

Max Hits: 1 upgrade per level (max 8)

Damage/Hit: Base Magic Damage x 0.5 + DoT Use // to perform. At max level, the "Fire Blast" Splash Attack is the longest reaching splash in the game on hit will apply DoT.

Unfortunately, it has a major downside. Unlike all other Splash Attacks, you will never be able to cast more than two times in a single full Magic bar. Thus, it drains Magic desired for other Splash Attacks and cannot be used as often. This attack will not damage enemies that are already frozen.

Magic Projectile "Ice Bolt"Element: Ice

Damage: Base Magic Damage Use // to perform. A pointed bullet of ice. The fact that this freezes normal enemies makes it a powerful Magic Projectile. Cultists are immune to this Splash Attack. Also, this Magic Projectile will always do damage even on frozen enemies, which will unfreeze them.

Air Projectile "Ice Shards"Element: Ice

Max Hits: 1 upgrade per level (max 8)

Damage/Hit: Half of Base Magic Damage Use, /, /, to perform. At max level, the "Ice Shards" Air Projectile has no gaps in their landing location. With each shard being able to freeze normal enemies, this Air Projectile can be very useful with a full team of 4 being able to Juggle freely without taking any damage.

Unfortunately, it has a major downside. you will never be able to cast more than two times in a single full Magic bar. Thus, it drains Magic desired for other Air Projectiles and cannot be used as often. This attack will not damage enemies that are already frozen.

Elemental Infusion "Ice Encasement"Element: Ice

Damage: Base Magic Damage + Base Melee Damage Use // to perform. This is considered the best Elemental Infusion in the game, because it can be used infinitely on an enemy.

When performed, the attack will freeze the enemy. This allows for the // to be repeated infinitely without the enemy having any chance to retaliate. The Ice effect does reset the hit counter. Because of how the combo can be repeated, using the drill combo (//) is not optimal or needed on normal enemies. for most bosses the drill combo will still be the best option blue knight has, even at max level.

Weapons with elemental effects may cause the enemy to break out of the freeze, allowing the enemy to retaliate, so it is worth keeping in mind not to use those weapons, especially on levels like Full Moon.

Magic Jump "Ice Fist"Element: Ice

Damage: Base Magic Damage Use // to perform a giant fist made of ice upwards, boosting you into the air. Freezes any enemies that you are overlapping when used. This attack will damage enemies that are already frozen, which will unfreeze them.
