Iron Knuckles Recommended Upgrade Path

Iron Knuckles Recommended Upgrade

The Dragon upgrade is recommended for Iron Knuckles. It's perfect for taking advantage of the low Strength requirement of 8. Also, since many enemies stagger with Fire attacks, it is possible to use this as a back-up weapon to stun foes. However, be aware that this weapon cannot be enchanted.
