So I'm grinding at osiris now and they say I should lvl up until 19 so I will still get a lot of MP in osiris then farm MP for stat points and skill points which I believe is a good tip. I still got skill and stat reset so I was thinking of going for this skill build and going for pure int cuz they say tank aren't that necessary so I'm going DPS build but I really don't know if this is the right move need some pro opinion guys. Is it worth it not getting aura heal and not maxing aura strike? XD

Go full int is the most dummy thing you can do since you won't be able to crit a lot with the basic agi....it's like have an F22 but no gas.

so a bit balance agi and int then? and what can u say about my skill build?

[Shinyusuke]

Seems you like to dps, so i suggest you to move the 4 extra stats on shield charge and put them in the upper one that on a % allow you to use 3 free aura.

About the stats i suggest to focus only in agi i know the damage is important but i assure you can gain 400% critical damage only with good cards and osiris accessories so the real problem is the critical rate

*Looks the build and remember what a dps knight said once in this forum*: 
 

Not taking sheild fortress is like a Sorc not having Deluge or a Priest not having Sanct.
 
The idea is you need to stack multiple HP+ or damage reduction skills to soak the big unavoidable AoE. What combo you need depends purely on group make-up and gear levels.
Do you really need SF? In current content no(except maybe driller or xenospider hissy fits). For CoA or AoD? Rumors around say SF is a needed crutch down the road. Though we don't know for sure.
 
Still even as dps spec I have shield fortress. The utility is far too strong to pass up. You have enough points to get it pretty much no matter what role you play.

 
I think I'm getting older to give advices for this new generation of knights ;-;
*cry in the corner*

 

But like Shinyusuke said is better move those points of Shield Charge to Aura Mastery. Because is always good get 3 free auras to use Shield Cannon or Aura Strike. And Aura Strike is important master, because you use this skill when Shield Cannon is in CD.

 

About stats.... When I bought all my skill and stat points I put 75 AGI and 200 INT.

id suggest getting to ML 20 and having osiris gear before you work on stats & skill points
because the gears will give you more tankiness and dmg, so youll make it easier it on your healer, do more dmg=kill mobs faster=more exp per 30min. You'll also be qualified for ML20+ parties

You have to differentiate between 'dps' builds and pvp builds. Generally spoken, AGI is always worse than INT for raising your threat / dps. BUT - and this is a large but - you don't have to trust anyone here on this forum, simply test it by yourself: Just go to Condors, GC a bit until you get those +75pt AGI potions.

 

For my Warrior:

+75 AGI = +0.4% crit. chance

 

I guess that shouldn't be much higher for Knights, since both classes get +1 crit / AGI.

 

So for me, it's always a bit funny if players talk about investing points in AGI, because I can hardly imagine any situation where 0.4% more crit. chance would make any difference.

 

On your skill build:

You might want to rethink maxing Shield Bash. You only lower the cooldown by 10sec, because the additional damage doesn't matter that much in any case.

AGI is not a choice for pure offensive knight and its rather for offensive defensive knight. AGI is really useless for warrior cos they add both dodge and crit 1 only per point, whereas for knight it can be handy to boost ur dodge since its 2 dodge per 1 AGI point. While most ppl think dodge sux, few ppl agree that dodge can help mitigate the damage better (since we get heavy nerf on parry). Even 1 miss can also screw ur enemy combo.

So if u really want to be pure offensive knight, go pump ur INT, dont worry ur crit not that high cos what u aim is the deadly 1 hit KO in ur 1 critical hit. But if u want to be offensive defensive knight, pump ur AGI cos it both helps u mitigate the damage while in the same time make ur damage more shiny than pure tank by critting a lot with BT benefit.

Ideal critical chance for ml 20 knight:
If ur build is pure offensive = not less than 20%
If ur build is offensive defensive = not less than 25%
