'''Wretched Knights''' are [[Ultra]] [[Hive]] [[Knight]]s encountered in the [[Prison of Elders]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]] - [[Prison of Elders]]''</ref> Wretched Knights act as the enforcers of the [[Worm Keeper]]s, using brute strength to keep the disparate Hive broods in the Prison of Elders in line. In return, the Wretched Knights hope to be rewarded with the spoils of the [[Light]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]] - [[Grimoire]]:[[Grimoire:Enemies|Enemies]]/[[Grimoire:Enemies/Exalted Hive|Exalted Hive]], [[Grimoire:Enemies/Exalted_Hive#Wretched_Knight|Wretched Knight]]''</ref>

A less powerful Wretched Knight would be encountered within the [[Cosmodrome]], fighting back against the forces of the [[Imperial Cabal]].<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Battlegrounds|Battleground]]: [[Battleground: Foothold|Foothold]]''</ref>

==Gameplay==
In the Prison of Elders, the Wretched Knight behaves like a regular [[Knight]] except in [[Challenge of the Elders]]. In the Challenge of Elders the Wretched Knight gains the ability to summon floating [[Taken]] mines around the arena and push the player back with a ground punch. The punch does less damage than a regular melee.

A [[Major]] Wretched Knight also appears in the second encounter of [[Battleground: Foothold]]. When the hacking percentage reaches 75%, it will manifest alongside a massive horde of Hive, including two [[Disruptor Wizard]]s and led by a [[Monstrosity Ogre]]. It assaults the hack room alongside other Knights but has no special abilities or behaviors. If it still lives after the hack is completed, it will disappear soon after.

==Trivia==
*If the Wretched Knight is one of the bosses in the Challenge of Elders, the [[Hive]] room will have more banners than usual.
*They bear a resemblance to the Knights of the [[Spawn of Crota]], yet they also possess the stakes found stabbed through the arms as those in the forces of the [[Hidden Swarm]].
