Heide Knight Set is an Attire or Armor in Dark Souls 2. Armor sets do not provide specific benefits, so players are free to mix and match their preferred parts to optimize their Builds.
"Greathelm/Chainmail/Gauntlets/Leggings worn by Heide Knights"
"Whether Heide refers to a kingdom or was just a name for the land is not clear, for no records date back far enough to tell.
All that is known is that the Way of Blue has its origins in Heide, and that Heide was later subsumed by the sea."
Set Location
- Dropped by Heide Knights in Forest of Fallen Giants (between 1st and 2nd bonfires; spawns once), in The Lost Bastille (on the way from Exile Holding Cells bonfire to McDuff's smithy) and at the exit from Shrine of Winter. Use Bonfire Ascetic to farm the set.
- [Scholar of the First Sin] Heide Knights are regular enemies in Heide's Tower of Flame, so farming the set is much easier, although it's still not a frequent drop. There's also one Heide Knight lancer in water prison of Sinner's Rise.
- Alternative helmet – Heide Knight Iron Mask – is found in Cathedral of Blue, in a chest next to Blue Sentinel Targray.
- [Scholar of the First Sin] Mask is a guaranteed drop on NG (can still drop on NG+) from a Heide Knight found in The Gutter (spawns once): find the first Swollen Mongrel past a long bridge, turn in the opposite direction, cross the house and drop down.
Notes
- Upgraded with regular Titanite.
- The best way to get the set (pre-SotFS) is to kill the knight in Lost Bastille: follow the path from Exile Holding Cells bonfire, since there's only one other enemy on the way. Using a greathammer will make this simple, as your heavy attack will stunlock the red phantom and the Heide Knight. If you are having trouble killing that Heide Knight, summon Pilgrim Bellclaire to your aid (her sign is found next to Ruin Sentinels' arena).
- Heide Greathelm is a decent item for dressing as Solaire of Astora from Dark Souls, although the helm has an entirely different design, and is lacking the red feather on top.

Wearing this Chainmail with Havels Helm, Havel Gauntlets and Havel Leggings Fully upgraded will give you over 1000 in Slash-Strike-Thrust Defense... depending on other stats

This set, with Havel Gauntlets and the Looking Glass Helm is the ULTIMATE DRIP TO SHAKE THE VERY HEAVENS

One change I really appreciate in Scholar Of The First Sin, is the fact that you can actually farm for this set, It was impossible to get this set in the base game if you weren't the luckiest person known to humankind when it comes to armour piece drops and were somehow able to get all the armour pieces in one go for each knight since there were very few Heide Knights in the game and they didn't respawn.

Armourer Dennis: Don't kill me! Don't kill me, man, don't kill me!
Player: I'm not going to kill you. I want you to do me a favor. I want you to tell all your friends about me.
Armourer Dennis: What are you?!
Player: I'm Heide Man.

Lightning lance+5 , heide spear +10, heide great helm+10 heide iron mask+10, heide chain mail +10,heide gauntlets+10 and heide leggings +10. H O W ? ! ? !

Even with CoC and full item discovery gear the drop rates are abysmal

I guess I just got really lucky, but I managed to get the full set in about 20 minutes. Try popping the coins that boost item discovery!

To anyone trying to farm the set at Heide's Ruins. Don't waste your time by just joining the Champion's Covenant, Heide's Knights wont drop set pieces until ascetic 2 If you have a LOT of rusted coins, MAYBE you'll ALMOST get the whole set at intensity 2. You can avoid a lot of aggravation by just setting the area straight to ascetic 3, THEN joining the Champion's Covenant It'll take you around 15 minutes to get the whole set like this.

There's some conflicting information on pages; does the Set drop from the knights in Heide's Tower of Flame on NG, or does it require using a Bonfire Ascetic, or does it require Bonfire Ascetic AND Covetous Gold Serpent Ring+1 (as the Heide Knight enemy page suggests)?

Heide Knight set + Ring of the Living + Cracked red eye Orb = Hilariousness in Heide's tower : )

I have farmed all the knights in Heide’s Tower to extinction, and then used covenant of champs for 5 fucking hours and still haven’t gotten the damn legs.
Heide Knight Iron Mask was not found in either chests next to the Blue Sentinel Targray.

Damn gauntlets elude me. Cleared the entire Tower of Flame and no gauntlets...

Rarest armor set in the game by a longshot, surpassing even Drakekeepers and Syans. Also one of the best trade items. I wear full Heide when invading and I get a regular amount of messages from people asking to trade for pieces.

They could have put a bit of the lore of Heide and the Way of Blue in the description of each set piece. This way you would learn something new with each different armour drop. It takes some time to farm in SotFS, but it's a great set. I'm just saying they could've put more lore into it.

That set is so cool. I want that so bad that i used bonfire ascetic on the belfry gargoyles to get gold serpent ring +2 for the double drop rates so i can farm it. Took me like 6 hours to beat the damn gargoyles. It was brutal. I dont recommend trying the gargoyles at lvl 100 with bonfire astetic.

Am I the only one that thinks this looks like the Devines set in Oblivion?
I've farmed this set for 9 years and still have never got the chest to drop.
