Knight guide
Hello people. This is the guide about building a knight. There are several ways to approach this but we all do it with the things the game give us. Let's take a closer look.
Knight introduction
As a knight you mostly depend on your high defenses and HP. You are mostly placed in front of the group to shield them from harm. The role you have in a group is called "A tank". The best thing for a knight is to focus on your defenses and HP without neglecting your attack so that you at least have a decent damage output.
Knight build
Refinement: This is a very important aspect of the game because it can power you up a lot...or power you down a lot. The most beginners think stats like PATK, PDEF, MDEF and HP are the most important but that is not so. There are also general groups you can refine into that boost your stats a lot more namely: Intelligence, Endurance, Strength, Defense and Armor. These stats are a lot higher than the single stats and you should aim to get as many as them as possible. For a knight Defense, Armor and Endurance are the most important and Strength is important for the damage output.
Gemming: You know what you role is, now gem into it! Mix up your open slots with PATK, Defensive and HP gems and see what you are lacking for when you start to build further. Crit, matk and charisma gems are not so valueable for you.
Astrals: Just like gems, you also need Astrals that fit your role. A good mix between attack, defense and hp is necessary. I will explain a few astrals that might be useful for you as knight:
Force: The increase your damage output. Sometimes you must use power to conquer an enemy.
Fortitude: To increase your physical defense, one of the essentials.
Willpower: To increase your magical defense, important when you fight mages.
Enshieldment: To increase your block rate, this one is perfect for your knight class
Brilliance: To increase your HP, a good tank has a monster HP
Goddess blessing: Good to increase your defenses but you need a orange one and at least lvl 5 to be useful.
Will destroyer: It's optional. If you want balance and security, this astral is nice for you. It disables crit but your base damage increases.
Illusion: Also this one is optional. With this, you can completely dodge damage. You need a high level orange one to make it useful though.

Now we go to the last part...the skills. Not too much to say about that. You see you can do it 2 ways: the upper part, which is the damage part of the kngiht and the lower part, which is the tanking part of the knight. If you just want to do damage, concentrate on the upper part, if not, concentrate on the lower part. My advise is to use at least all passive skills since they are too important to miss. For the rest you can fill it in on how you want to be. Under this text you see the skills you have available:
