Our Take on Lancelot
Lancelot is an SSR Sanctum Glory Assassin whose damage grows as he moves. Long March adds up to 40% damage based on total distance travelled, Solar Steed grants him [Morale] before a charge that ends in a 220% area finish, and Chivalry gives 300 critical rate.
Strengths
- +Long March amplifies damage up to 40% based on distance moved, and level 7 doubles that bonus in [Grace].
- +Chivalry grants 300 critical rate, and in [Grace] each critical hit reduces Solar Steed's cooldown by 1 second.
- +Solar Steed grants [Morale] on cast, and level 2 makes it apply shock on collision.
- +Level 4 resets Solar Steed by 2 seconds whenever an elemental reaction occurs.
Weaknesses
- −Long March needs time and movement to build, so short fights may end before it reaches its cap.
- −Knight's Bond is described only as a movement-based passive enhancement, with no stated effect.
- −He produces [Morale] but no [Fervor], so his [Grace] bonuses depend on teammates.
How to Play Lancelot
Lancelot is a front-line Assassin who wants to keep charging. Use Solar Steed often: it gives [Morale], covers distance for Long March, and at level 2 applies shock. Piercing Gale is a 225% cone flurry for groups. Once an ally provides [Fervor] and he enters [Grace], his crits keep cutting Solar Steed's cooldown. Level 7 is his strongest upgrade because it doubles Long March in [Grace]. Level 4 pays off only if your team causes elemental reactions regularly.
Good Teammates
- Arthur (SSR) – Arthur's Fervor Shield shares [Fervor] with ally Luminaries, combining with Solar Steed's [Morale] to put Lancelot in [Grace].
- Ophelia (SSR) – Ophelia's Sacred Guard grants [Fervor], and level 4 Radiant Sanctuary adds more to pre-protected allies, enabling Lancelot's [Grace] bonuses.
- Goren (SSR) – Goren's Rocket Skull grants [Fervor] to allies in a medium area, another way to complete Lancelot's [Grace].

Should You Invest?
Lancelot is SSR and listed at T3. He is a reasonable Sanctum Glory damage option if you already have a [Fervor] supplier, but his scaling depends on long fights, so he is not an early priority.
