I don’t remember winning against them. Just had another good match for the umpteenth time the team of randoms worked well together we had our OP vehicles/weapons we did all we could do but ran out of time was 1 left but the -Yoink- ran inside the base and hid out in the upper floor.
The tough part is you need to kill 4 but all are bullet sponges even with 3-4 scorpions and what not and then you have to deal with phaetons, gazillion knights and other vehicles.
Any tips ?
Precision weapons work wonders on Knights.
I figured out that Dying Start works really well on regular knights (less than a full magazine can kill them) and better than many other reqs on legendary boss knights. Though the fastest way to kill knights is to knock off all of their armor, have someone distract them, then assassinate them.
Did this to one of the legendary knights on Urban when he had about 20% health left and we were 15 seconds from losing. My whole team was shooting him from the front, and I went behind and assassinated him to clear the round. I’m pretty sure you just have to shoot off their armor regardless of their health level to assassinate, but someone may have more info.

So does Tarturus Gavel plus 1 damage boost. Instant kill. And also works on Hunters. Just gotta dodge their fuel rod. Also use Upgraded shields for better shield strength.
Are we talking about the same Knights ? I’m talking about the level 5 bosses. 4 of them. Not the regular knights.
Knights go down surprisingly fast to powerful REQs and vehicles and, unlike most Home Base bosses, the Knights have a tendency to come out into the line of fire. Use Fuel Rod Cannon or Rocket Launcher variants, I find that they work rather well. If everyone uses one Ad Victoriam each that could honestly be enough.
Forerunner weapons and aim for their weak points (they work so much faster at breaking forerunner armour), once you break both pieces assassinate and boom you’re done.
Simple idea, difficult execution

As long as you can knock off their armor, you should be able to assassinate them. The mythic knights on Sanctuary that I believe you’re talking about should be beatable this way. But like others have said, you need to coordinate to do this. Have a few teammates distract one of them and another one or two on mob duty, then wait for the armor to get busted and assassinate. The animation is pretty cool; you rip off their knight blade and run them through with it. Although it’s very easy to get killed trying to do this if you’re not careful (and even if you are), this is legitimately the fastest way to take knights down.
