Favourite Knights per class

[Xerkics]

Im wondering if we can compile everyones favourites knights per class and why whether its unique skills or demeanor?


Im old faith Tyrant.

Marksman : Its a close tie between sir Bors and Sir Yvain. Sir Bors is hillariously bad at keeping oaths and with his curse is actually good dps for missions against the living I gave him 25% dmg vs picts potion. Sir Yvan adventures are legendary and im not quite sure does he actually fight all those magical beasts or is this all an elaborate series of scams which make for great stories.

Defender: Mordred is super solid so far, I had sir pelleas but didnt like his skill set and let him go. Met briefly sir Percival and he seemed cool as well but not been able to hire him yet.

Champion : I Like how honourable Sir Balan is and he is great combination of tank and aoe dmg with defencive stance.

Sage: I Like lady Guinevere because of how good her toolkit is , combination of buffs and teleport backstab she is super reliable.

Arcanist: Sir Ector is the only one i got so far and i never use him because he makes money for me with his trait but he is my go to person for my missions where his knowledge is appropriate . As a tyrant player i was impressed and shocked by his Greater Good mentality.

Vanguard: I only met her once so Far But Warrior Queen Boudica seemed really cool. None of the other Vanguards struck me as interesting so far.

I'm Tyrant Christian.
Arcanist: Ector, don't have anyone else yet, fire blast is pretty good, slow+force can kite slow bosses indefinitely if they aren't immune to knockback.

Marksman: Dindraine, actually. Poison arrow is pretty good and she got several events in a row, resulting in sky-high loyalty.

Defender: Mordred, although more for his debuffs and control.

Vanguard: Sir Balin is a beast. High mobility with jump, 3-ap double strike, very high damage with backstab and/or surprise.

Champion: I have, like, four of them but don't like them very much, usually use Vanguard for DPS. Black knight looks promising with his jump-attack, but his money reduction trait is a deal-breaker. I also like Kay with a Death Strike better than Lanval and Brunor with their Defensive stance.

Sage: Only had Guinevere as a guest couple of times thus far. Very good as a fifth character, dunno if she can find a place in the core 4.

Playing Righteous King/Old Faith.

Marksman: IF you want a poison build, lady D is the best, she can spread poison on practically the whole enemy army, reducing their damage and eating away at their armor, the problem is like 30% of enemies in the game are immune to poison so she fluctuates between being overpowered to being useless. The other archers seem to be mostly interchangeable.

Defender: Mordred really is sort of a hybrid character. He's a defender but doesn't have the defensive stance, a taunt or any team support skills. He's more of a really tanky damage dealer, especially once you get his chain lightning skills. Percival is good in the role of the defender since he has the team armor buff, taunt and can also give AP to the team.

Champion: If you are going the righteous king path, Lancelot is a pretty damn powerful champion, got a ton of AOE attacks, and is meant to be on his own (even has a skill called lone wolf that buffs him when he's not next to allies). Basically, send him into groups of enemies and have him lay waste to them singlehandedly. Balan is a fantastic off tank for the first half of the game though. I used him until I got Lancelot.

Sage: Guinevere is top tier support sage, if you build her as a dedicated support she can make your team incredibly tough, and even act as an off tank. Morgawse however (if you choose to take her) is an extremely powerful offensive sage, she provides some team support but can also burn down the enemy really well. Depends if you want offense or defense.

Arcanist: You'll even tally get merlin, who is an amazing ranged damage dealer. Turn him into a fire mage and he'll lay waste to tons of enemies. You can also get another arcanist at the end of the old faith path but I have not gotten her yet, but I assume she's pretty strong based on her character from the myths.

Vanguard: Queen Boudica is stupid strong, the highest potential damage dealer in the game if built right. She can take down bosses in one turn with the proper combination of group buffs, gear, skill selection and positioning.

Tyrant / Old faith:

Arcanist: Sir Dagonet for his contol and aoe skills. They all pretty good thou, in late game always got a couple in party

Champion: Sir Kay. Made him a glass cannon, with the teleport skill ring he can clear crowds pretty fast

Defender: Mordred ofcourse, but Red Knight is solid too

Vanguard: I chose Lady Boudicea over Sir Balin because of his christian faith, but they both can do the job

Sage: Lady Isolde. Very decent support with her buff ap and damage abilities, and with the ice lance she doesn't have to stay in front rou to be useful

Marksman: Lady Dindraine, cause she was firs one I got. Didn't play much with this class thou.
