Description
In the past, there was "evil" which was the dragon called "Aminus". The indiscriminate destruction of Aminus in Kanavan put the kingdom on the brink of destruction. At that time, a young man who identified himself as "Erudon" appeared and used formidable swordsmanship and magic to prevent the runaway of Aminus. Since then, the Spell Knight who defeated the dragon has been called the "Dragon Knight" by people, and after, the Erudon family became a prestigious family protecting the Kanavan Royal Family for generations.
A Dragon Knight is a 1-handed sword technician that is very strong in close combat and uses combinations of both the Spell Sword skill and the White Magic skill to vanquish his foes.
Dragon Knights' weapon of choice is the glaive that specializes in thrusting and slicing attacks. It is a balanced weapon when it comes to close-quarter combat and measurable distance. It is excellent in continuous and charging attacks.
Dragon Knight's magic strengthens attack power and strikes over wide areas. Ronan's magic can annihilate enemies and the glaive's battle abilities are at best when used with a combination of magic spells. A Spell Knight was the one that was able to defeat the dragon, so it is safe to say that the Dragon Knight is the best warrior.
With the advent of the Erudon Weapons, Dragon Knights can unleash the might of Erudon's Glaive, which allows for continuous short-ranged attacks, further improving their abilities to keep their opponents at bay without any chance to counterattack.

Erudon's Glaive
Dragon Knight's rune gauge fills itself slowly over time. Once the rune bar is completely filled, Ronan can summon Erudon's Glaive by pressing + . While Erudon's Glaive is active, Ronan retains all of his Specials and his basic moveset, yet gains a 10% attack boost, 2 additional attacks, no cooldown for his Dragon Dive and Dragon Rush attacks, and his eyes will turn into a bright sky blue. Once the gauge is emptied, the Glaive will disappear. Using a Special will temporarily freeze the rune bar. Pressing + again will remove the Glaive immediately.

Trivia
- Dragon Knight is known as Dragon Warrior or Draconian on the other servers.
- Although technically a dragon is to be slain to become a Dragon Knight, the job requirements do not include a dragon being killed. Furthermore, the only draconic creature known up until Gaikoz's Castle is the Red Gorgos of Gorgos' Dungeon, and Ronan is met at the Gorge of Oath, which is beyond Gorgos' Dungeon.
- Dragon Knight along with Abyss Knight are the only jobs of Ronan that do not possess a support buff.
- Before the Erudon Weapons revamp, Holy Inferno originally increased HP regeneration for nearby party members as well as himself for 7 seconds, and also provided Ronan a barrier that reduced all damage received to 1 for 20 seconds or 1 hit.
- Before the Erudon Weapons revamp, Dragon Knight's 3rd-grade White Magic skill was named Arc Breath, in which Ronan summoned a dragon that breathed fire in an arc over a large area.
- Aegis Knight's 4th-grade skill was then replaced with a skill named Arc Breath.
- The dragon summoned bears a resemblance to a Wyrm Spawn. In addition, Starkiln is capable of summoning it.
- Despite their names, Infinity Sword and Sword Tempest do not involve a sword.
