“A balanced melee fighter trained in spear and shield combat. Durable and dependable, ideal for players who enjoy frontline roles and absorbing damage.”

Knights represent discipline and resilience, trained to wield spears and shields in balance. Their role as durable frontline fighters makes them well-suited for players who enjoy leading battles, defending allies, and absorbing damage.

The Knight’s use of shield techniques and spear mastery allows for both offense and defense, making them versatile in prolonged encounters. While not as offensively explosive as Warriors, their ability to withstand punishment ensures consistency and survivability.

As a Base Class, the Knight establishes a sturdy foundation for tanking roles and defensive playstyles. Their steady presence in combat makes them indispensable for groups seeking a reliable protector.

Attributes

Primary Attributes
STR	The main source of a Knight’s physical power. Directly increases ATK and scales with nearly all offensive skills, making it the cornerstone of Knight damage.
VIT	The backbone of Knight survivability. Raises HP and physical defense while also scaling some defensive and support abilities, ensuring Knights remain durable in frontline roles.
AGI	A supportive stat that enhances mobility and tempo. Boosts ASPD, with synergy from skills like Spear Quicken, though less impactful than STR or VIT for overall Knight performance.
Secondary Attributes
DEX	Provides accuracy and block rate, giving a baseline benefit to all physical classes. Knights gain consistency from HIT, but generally only need enough to prevent frequent misses, leaving it secondary to other stats.
INT	Expands MP and slightly improves regeneration, offering situational support for skill uptime. Useful mainly when spamming abilities or in magic-heavy encounters, but otherwise low priority compared to Knight’s physical scaling.
LUK	Increases critical chance and critical damage, which all classes benefit from in theory. For Knights, it is mainly viable in niche crit-oriented builds, and not recommended for general play or tank-focused roles.
