Knight Tank ranking (personal opinion)

Hello,

after the change of the ISS "Traces of the Cross Sword" (thx for it again!) I tested the different knights from a tank perspective and checking the following aspects that, in my opinion, are worth to check as a tank.

• Aggro (how much aggro per second can be generated in single target, AOE and from range)
• Survivability (how good is the class to survive if a lot of dmg is expected or all healer died/afk)
• Crowd Control (how good is the class in crowd controlling)
• Group DMG protection (ability to protect the raid from incoming damage)
• Offensive Support (ability to increase the damage the raid is doing)

As a side note I ranked them only comparing the aspects how they change with the elite skills the classes have. It is clear that every knight main has for example a charge and the ISS Traces of the Cross Sword (if you obtained it). Some aspects are getting better with the elite skills while others are getting worse.

Here are my lists

Aggro

Survivability

Crowd Control

Group damage protection

Offensive support

Overall ranking

In my opinion there is not a huge gab between K/D and K/S. Different classes have different advantages and disadvantages, which may fit or not fit in your playstyle.

Hope this helps some new or unexperienced knights

updated K/W aggro after some more tests. it was between S and A before. now S tier.

Because it's only on single target and not usable in trash. only on bosses after you generated aggro and still used tactical smash.

And because in the current content 90-95% of the damage content is trash, it's only D tier, bcs K/D give permanent attackboost to all raid member
