I need help with knight's build

[Reaper]

So... There are two main stats builds for knight : vit and agi . Why agi/vit build is unpopular , and each build is better for what?

About skill build ... Which of them is better for PvM ; Lancer or 2h swordman?

[Mort]

I think it's about personal preference more than effectiveness.

My choice is agi 2H BB build for non-trans leveling/farming. I'm simply used to it. I don't have major problems in the places I go to, the only downside is that I'm pretty much screwed when I get stunned.

I'd say mobbing capabilities of BBer/Brandish lancer are similar, the only advantage lancer IMO has is the shield, which is not that much of an advantage unless properly carded (means extra work XD )

[azurerogue]

I prefer one-handed spear build with BB (over Brandish).

[Sarin]

Speaking about agi and vit...

PvM, your build is likely to be STR>AGI>VIT+DEX, essentially a mobber for BB/brandish.
PvP, LK is most used as tank/statuser, that is low STR, high VIT, AGI, DEX. You can alos be a secondary damager/empbreaker, in that case it's a balance of STR, VIT, AGI with quite low dex.

So in fact, there is no real full AGI/full VIT good build, it's how you balance out these stats.

[Mort]

Hmm? well I'm not a fan of agi on WoE LK. And quite low dex? how much is that?

I always put 50 total dex on nontrans and 60 total dex on trans. (without bless)

[Sarin]

I'd say you're about 10-20 dex too high. Perhaps more, if you use one of my fav accessories, Cursed Hand.

[Mort]

Well, with lower dex you have to rely on MB and Bash's HIT bonus.
Also, I don't usually take top-notch gear in consideration.

[Sarin]

Actually, the dex is more for BB's cast than hit. With concentration, even with 20 DEX you have 169 hit, enough for WoE. Not even my SinX with such hit ever had problems hitting with SB.

[Mort]

*cough*howboutoutsidewoe*coughcough*

I believe dex is important everywhere cause if you dont have it u cant hit and who wants to stand there going miss miss miss miss....
