i have a knight lvl 220 with +15 set and  IM passives and all the unique skills ... however i get a lot damage ..i wonder what would be the best build for the knight regarding the sate distribution .. because i think this is the main issue for me ..

 

i did full STR 446

i did also charm 250

i did con 140

 

what is the best build in order to go dg and not to get any damage like many people i see ..

 

i appreciate the help in advance.

What is your +15 set?

 

Do you have all the defense passives?

[simpleguy]

aurum set +15  and also i have exalted +11 

 

i have 9.5 k def  without any buffs however i get damage a lot .. im very sad for that .. i have also oro's set with pink opal

 

my substate is 30 charm / 75 acc and 30 charm / 75 deff

 

i only need pvm knight tanker .. not pvp

ok...there is something wrong in ur build.

 

ONLY MY 50 cent to this .....!!!!!!

 

1. i would prefer the Brave Set (Valor) +15

2. u dun need charm if u wanna Tank dg. Str/Dex is ur Main stat ! but if u wanna deal some dmg too.. u only need little con to hit the Mobs with ur AE´s ( i prefer 80-100n ) and if u want.. some sen to get some critical hits with ur AE´s ( i prefer 50-70).

3. Ur substats.. u should go with any substat that help getting more def/dodge.

4. Gems in  ur EQ.. I prefer to get all the DMG Reduction Gems i can get. other gems could be  skill or anhanced dmg. gem in ur weapon to deal lil more dmg on mobs / boss.

The dmg wont be huge..but it will help ur group killing the mobs/boss lil faster.

 

That are my opinions to DG Knight

as littlekami said.

 

his knight is nice and tanky in cave... and that's what you want.

[Negg]

u need dex.

 

[Brreezzyhill8]

as a pvm knight

 

the damage reduction items and gems is a must.

 

on the stats

if u want full pvm:

full str is good

decent dex is good

on ur con- (full cleric buff that gets ur accuracy to 1200+ is good)

u also need sen- (more critical you have the less u recieve critical from monsters)

                           (this criticals makes you stop while running and mobbing)

                           (and also critcal is good when you want to do damage aoe or melee atk)

 

any correction on this is open tho but here is what i know so far

i hope this helps you

Imho, full str is not so good, it's a waste of stat points.

 

Dex is fine, good to have

 

Con is not much of concern, 100 or so is enough

 

Sen, optional

 

I made my knight capable of several roles: Tanker, AoE, Melee

It's too boring if you're just a shield made of meat and do poor damage.

 

Getting damage on your knight is nice, since you have a passives which gives you +% AP

thanks to blocks, so it's ideal to fight the boss while having some little mobs attack you.

 

Blocks = +20% damage reduction +15% (or 25%) AP + more than 500HP/s regeneration

 

At least this is the way I wanna play my knight, because most of the time I use 3 characters to do dgs.

I have PVM knight. From what i saw you dont need any CON at all as monsters has no dodge.

 

I have aprox

230 sen (seems need 200+ to crit most of hits vs mobs)

350 STR

rest all DEX for better block amount

 

As it was pointed out before, DEX helps alot.

 

You can use luna or hunter set, both works relatively fine (first one is easier/cheaper to get).

You can use valor damage gems on Head/etc, for shield i would recommend block rate (4.5%) gem, secondary option would be damage reduction.

+15 level shield has more effect than +15 armor and low shield due to knight passive and mechanics.

I tested out and found that +11/12 reinforced gear with +15 shield is more tanky than +15 reinforced and +11 shield for example... many things is best to try out rather than just look numbers.

In current patch any defense over 7.5-8k becomes less practical as damage reduction from raising it is practically none (look defense "damage reduction" and try to shift items), better put more into skill power or any other damage items.

Offensive gems/etc depends more on what weapon (xbow, blunt, sword, etc) you use ... personally i prefer AOE as it gives you extra taunt and make significant damage to monsters stacked around you...

 

Charm doesnot help much as most of your skills doesnot have any PVM useful debuffs...

 

If you learn all AOE's, Taunts and shield passives (except any attack speed/accuracy weapon passive) you will do well in PVM as you can tank alot (and passive boosts your attack power/regeneration on tanking time).

 

I have tried exalted knight and also brave gear out in dungeons, both works fine (exalted has higher block rate though).

 

It really depends how you play and how good cleric is with you, also if group has some high damage makers aside of you.

 

There is no "best/optimal build" for anything in this game, it all comes to your own and your group game style and abilities.

 

Anyways, good luck and i hopefully i didn't make things more confusing for you now
