In the former four games, it is the promoted form of the [[Pegasus Knight]], and in ''Engage'' it is one of the class change options of the newly introduced trio of [[Sword Flier|Sword]], [[Axe Flier|Axe]] and [[Lance Flier]] classes alongside [[Griffin Knight]]. They originally wielded lances and swords, being able to use swords only when [[dismount]]ed into a [[Knight (Mystery of the Emblem)|Knight]] in {{title|Mystery of the Emblem}}. The [[Nintendo DS]] remakes changed this to have them wield [[lance]]s and [[axe]]s, in order to differentiate the class from the [[Falcoknight]], the new alternative Pegasus Knight promotion option. This change was also reflected in how the only recruitable Dracoknight, [[Minerva]], was made to specialize in axes and came with the strongest axe, [[Hauteclere]]. | ||
Dracoknights break from the Pegasus Knight's nimble frailty in favor of being bulky and powerful. They have high [[strength]] and [[defense]], while still keeping decent [[skill (stat)|skill]] and [[speed]] and the traditional high [[movement|mobility]] of a flying class. In comparison, Dracoknights suffer from particularly low [[resistance]], to the point that promoting from Pegasus Knight to Dracoknight even specifically lowers a unit's once-formidable resistance. They share the traditional flier's [[bonus damage|weakness]] to [[bow]]s and wind-based [[tome]]s such as [[Cutting Gale]], with these tomes being particularly lethal against Dracoknights due to their poor resistance. | Dracoknights break from the Pegasus Knight's nimble frailty in favor of being bulky and powerful.
