is this possible and how?

I was thinking full str? would that work? o_O

Or something like 30 sta 15 dex 15 int and rest str?

I know knights need sta to tank and all but I want to try to make a build where You wield big weapons (2h sword or 2h axe dunno which to pick) and hit hard using skills...

anyone know of a good build that works or has a dmg dealing knight?

the reason im doing this is because my friend is also makinga knight and he is goign the tankign way so I could party with him but be dmg dealer (using skills) so we can level faster

[Sonoko]

then you might as well stick with making a blade.

Blade is an excellent damage dealer because they have high dex and str, whereas knight tops in defence and HP department

[Xubie]

I see that blades usually fight with thier normal attacks I want to make like a skill spaming Knight that does dmg? (I understand the cookie of each class im trying to make a non cookie)

Dmg dealer knigth possible?

[7thSin]

yea maybe that depends if u wanna become a AoE knight or not if not then ..u can do something like this:

40-50sta - 15 dex - 15int - rest str ..

if u want to become AoE knight

30-60 str - all sta - 15 dex - 15 int

correct me if im wrong

So you two are going to 1v1 everything? No aoe? Level...faster? o_O

Good luck?

Before I give you some general ideas, I'll tell you this: STR knights suck ass. If your STR is higher than your STA, you have officially fucked yourself over. :S

Anyway, if you truly want a STR Knight, then leave STA, DEX and INT at 15. Add 100% STR, and nothing else.

Equipment:

- +10 2H Sword
- +10 full suit with 4 sockets of add HP/Def rating
- Two Plug+6 earrings
- Two Stam+6 rings

Skills (all maxed):

- Blazing Sword
- Sword Mastery
- Guilotine
- Sneaker
- Guard
- Rage
- Charge
- Pain Reflection.

Items:

- PILLS! 14 sets of 99 of EACH pill.
- Star Candy - fill up the empty slots.
- VitalStarX - 99
- Activition Scroll - 99

Required team members:

- Assist/RM/BP with maxed Revive and I guess Heal if (s)he has a chance.. Also, maxed buffs. Especially Heap Up.
- Some Knight that, unlike yourself, has a good build and can take on monsters with AOE.

Game plan:

You sit and wait until your Knight party member gathers a select amount of monsters. He then stands still and starts to unleash his Power Stump. You gaze at the power of STA, and feel the need to cry seeing as you lack just that. You shake your head, and remember your purpose on the battle field.

Assist fully buffs you, you cast Guard, Rage, Blazing Sword, Axe Mastery and Pain Reflection. (in case you get hit, the pain reflection will do nice damage seeing as you get owned) You use a vitaldrinkX, seeing as you need all the candy/pills you can possibly carry (no room for 100s of regular vital drinks), followed by an activition scroll.

You valiantly run towards one of the 9 monsters your friend is AOE-ing, and you hit your shortcut key to your action slot which should be filled with Charge. Your Knight swings away like a mad idiot, killing most likely some unexpected monster that thinks "wtf?".

After the battle, the assist revives you because you died seeing as some aggro creeped up behind you, and 1hit KOed you.

Now follow the above steps again.

ENJOY!

(don't do it)

I understand why people need to tank but Arent STA knights weak?

[Luri]

That's the point, Knights are MADE to TANK, not DAMAGE.

A Knight with medium Str(40~60) is good enough. Power Stump stuns the mob, making killing them much easier(you take a tad lesser damage too while it gets stunned)

[7thSin]

wow what silent said makes me wanna make 1!! (joking) :P

Myth, myth, myth, myth, myth, myth, myth and nothing but a myth.

Knights with 15 STR are still amazingly powerful because the skills themselves have high strength, and don't rely much on the statistic STR to do more damage. I have 15 STR and I do 2200 damage per power stump (with rage/smite/mastery) against monsters about 3 levels higher (which is what you'll be AOEing anyway).

I was scared to death that 15 STR would result into damage such as 1200, 1300 or something along those lines, but I was pleasently surprised with the sheer power of a Stamina knight.

[phr33k4z0id]

Full STA Knights like Silent are actually rather rare. Like you, lots of ppl want to do more dmg. Those Knights have STR ranging from 30-60, and the rest on STA. You'll do about 2500-2600 a Power Stump with 60STR as compared to Silent's 2100-2200.

EDIT: Xubie, I PMed you. Next time just PM me.

[Xubie]

phreek my brother was in the duel arena and he saw you

What is your build? And what skill was that you were using to kill people ?

[Labra]

Knight skills do considerable damage even without Str. To raise the damage a couple hundreds per hit you need A LOT of Str points, which could be invested in Sta for more FP + HP = more skills = same result in the end plus extra survival chances.

40 Str is a good average. 15 Str is good enough to survive. Any of those builds are awesome to AoE.

If you're not a greedy dumbass and go for 10mobs per AoE each time, you won't need to worry about survival chances. Only if major lag hits will you need to worry about dying, and in most cases that extra STA won't save you anyhow with the lag.

The extra FP is almost useless. You'll never wait for your FP to regen so that extra max FP isn't really a help. VitalDrink500's max heal is 680, and you'll have well over that, so you won't really be able to heal past that anyway. You drink FP pots to lvl, so the max FP has nothing to do with it. Food is also more expensive than FP pots, so if you take longer to kill, you take more hits, you eat more food, so you spend more money and lvl slower.
