'''Black Knight's Fortress''', also known as '''Dark Fortress''' and '''Fort''', is a mid to high-tier group [[Combat#Zones|combat area]]. It is the source of the [[Black Knight Titan's Helm]], [[Black Knight's Gauntlets]], and one of the sources of the [[Black Knight Great Helm]].
+
'''Dark Fortress''' is the respective [[Combat#Dungeons|dungeon]] for [[City]] and is accessed by {{img|Dark Fortress Key|20|word=1}}. It is the sole source of the {{img|Blademaster's Memory|35|word=1}} and {{img|Torn Banner|35|word=1}} which are required for crafting {{img|Blademaster's Shroud|20|word=1}} and {{img|Royal Banner|20|word=1}} respectively. Up to 3 players/mercenaries can enter Dark Fortress.

The fortress allows up to 3 players with a single key used by the leader to enter. 3 players' worth of drops are generated per run and shared between players. If running Fortress with 2 players, the key owner will get 2 of the 3 loot rolls.

Dark Fortress consists of 4 waves:
