Before the destruction of the Core of Light left him stranded in the Light Realm, Knight Light was the protector of the Starlight–the source of light, wisdom, and vast energy in Radiant City. But an evil villain known as Luminous wanted the Starlight for himself. Without warning, Luminous attacked, and the two took to the skies in an epic battle which lasted several days. In the end, Knight Light stood victorious and Luminous was imprisoned within Sunscraper Spire so that he could no longer pose a threat to Skylands. Now with his Traptanium Scimitar, Knight Light fights alongside the Trap Team to keep evil at bay!

Basic Attack Notes

Traptanium Scimitar

Combo attack can be done while jumping or flying (press the Jump button mid-jump to fly).

Prismatic Pounce

Knight Light (not enemies) must stand inside Light Auras created by Prismatic Pounce for extra damage.

Light Up

Delay explosion up to three seconds by holding Attack 3. Circle travels straight or you can guide it with control stick.

Upgrade Paths

Scimitar Slasher

Ascending Strike and Spinning Slash are great for dealing with large groups of enemies. The downside of Spinning Slash is that Knight Light can't move while charging it. Speed of Light is a big upgrade for a melee-focused Skylander like Knight Light. It allows him to cover ground quickly while also dishing out some damage in the process. It's worth every second you spend practicing the Light Up/Speed of Light combo.

Luminary of Light

Radiant Radius and Illumination Detonation are straightforward upgrades to Prismatic Pounce. If you choose the Luminary of Light Path, always have Light Auras active and keep enemies near them to get the damage boost from the explosions. Use Flash Dash to cover more ground quickly and safely. It's possible to press Attack 2 (the second time) at any point during the upward motion the screen momentarily.
