=== Dragon Breath Build ===
Dragon Breath is, by far, my favorite build. It is a simple still effective build with a fun playstyle, not very punitive for those who are beginning and still have an amazing learning curve.
Dragon Breath is, by far, my favorite build. It is a simple still effective build with a fun playstyle, not very punishing for those who are beginning and still have an amazing learning curve. Due to it being simple, you can focus on what is happening on GvG, focus on learning more about the jobs and what they should do or even shotcall for your guild if you feel like doing so. Since you are a frontliner, you want to get as high as possible resists with enough after cast delay reduction to spam your main skill. Damage is not your priority and you should always focus on your main goal: keeping your enemy frontline away from your stack, acting like a wall between them.

Before continuing, I want you to keep in mind that this is totally personal and you should adapt and use those that are most suited for your playstyle and your guild. I will give few ideas for gears and a brief explanation on why/when use it.
You going to need to achieve 97% after cast delay reduction to be able to spam properly, so make sure you pick items that give enough for it.

==== Gameplay ====
As a DB RK your main goal is to stay on frontline and act as a wall between enemies and allies, not allowing enemies to pass through you. For this, you use {{#skill:2009}} to immobilize them and try to snipe their squishy DPSes with {{#skill:5004}} /  {{#skill:2008}} when {{#skill:255}} drops.
Always try to play with your supports and be proactive. Don't wait for {{#skill:25}}s and/or {{#skill:404}} on your feet and move to where it is casted. Try to be as vocal as possible and communicate with your team, you are in frontline and can have a nice view of what is happening in the GvG. If you get {{#skill:255}} you can go for a more offensive setup and act as a secondary DPS.
== War of Emperium: Training Edition! ==
Even if you played pre-renewal WoE for some time, keep in mind that WoE TE is nothing close to it. Even if it uses transclasses, it is still a renewal WoE, using renewal formulas and mechanics. I played some TE on brazilian official server mainly as a status LK and was really fun. But, due to the changes we had and to be a smaller WoE when compared to the 40 vs 40 GvGs of officials, status LK is nowhere as good as it is in officials.
'''This being said, this is the first time I'm playing as CS LK. I am NOT experienced and I'm still learning it, so this section will be updated more often as I figure out and theorycraft stuff.'''

Introduction

So you are interested in bringing your mount to WoE, aren’t you? You've come to the right place! I'll guide you through this journey of becoming the strongest knight you can be.

I'm Maru

and I've been playing RO for around 18 years now. During all these years, Knight has always been my favorite (to be honest, my only) job and I don't feel like myself if I'm not mounted (kappapride). And, since I'm mostly a PvP player since my childhood, I wanted to make a complete guide with all the things that I've learned along the years to help those who are just starting on PvP as a Knight, either as a Rune Knight for WoE SE or as a Lord Knight for WoE TE.

Keep in mind that this guide is NOT absolute truth and doesn't intend to be, it is my vision and experience as a WoE player. You can (and should) adapt and change things based on your needs, experiences and own tests. WoE is not as simple as black and white, there are many variants that will change from guild to guild, player to player and meta to meta.

War of Emperium: Second Edition!

WoE SE is my favorite WoE edition and the one I played the most in my life. I played as a DB RK mostly and I'll share some tips, ideas and builds that I've gathered over the years.

Dragon Breath Build

Dragon Breath is, by far, my favorite build. It is a simple still effective build with a fun playstyle, not very punishing for those who are beginning and still have an amazing learning curve. Due to it being simple, you can focus on what is happening on GvG, focus on learning more about the jobs and what they should do or even shotcall for your guild if you feel like doing so. Since you are a frontliner, you want to get as high as possible resists with enough after cast delay reduction to spam your main skill. Damage is not your priority and you should always focus on your main goal: keeping your enemy frontline away from your stack, acting like a wall between them.

Pros and Cons

Pros Cons
  • Easy to play and very newbie friendly;
  • Offensive tanker, dealing decent damage even if your main goal is to take damage;
  • Great toolset, being naturally immune to freeze/stone due to high mdef from runes;
  • Higher weight capacity and higher speed.
  • Easily disabled;
  • Predictable damage element, being forced Neutral/Shadow, Ghost/Holy or Water/Fire;
  • High usage of badges due to consumables (Runes and Potions);
  • Needs to get hit to really shine.

Stats

STR Increases weight capacity and reduces

duration of some disables;

80+ It is your main source of protection against Shadow Chasers and those

annoying Masquerades.

some disables;

disables;

enemies try to pass through you and get to your stack.

and 30% on you). Very useful to deal with 2006.png Ignition Break and other melee physical skills.

OBS: try to use it on the lowest level but that is still enough to kill your enemy.

Runes

12729.png Asir Runestone (12729) Greatly increases ASPD. Changes 5004.png Dragon Breath Water element from Water to Ghost.

Guillotine Cross Poisons, Marsh of Abyss, and Mandragora Howling. For 60 seconds.

IT HAS 120 SECONDS COOLDOWN AND IS BEST USED BEFORE IMPORTANT GVGS.

12727.png Verkana Runestone (12727) Randomly summon 2~4 shields. Each shield can protect you from 1 attack.

It lasts for 15 minutes if doesnt break and has 60s cooldown.

after being dispelled.

525.png Panacea (525) Use this in case you are not curse immune. If you playing curse immune, use 506.png Green Potion (506) instead.
607.png Yggdrasil Berry (607) Heals 100% of your HP and SP. Use it as panic button.
608.png Yggdrasil Seed (608) Heals 50% of your HP and SP. Use it as panic button.

Gears

Before continuing, I want you to keep in mind that this is totally personal and you should adapt and use those that are most suited for your playstyle and your guild. I will give few ideas for gears and a brief explanation on why/when use it.

You going to need to achieve 97% after cast delay reduction to be able to spam properly, so make sure you pick items that give enough for it.

Those are the ones I use and can't give any other ideas because I still didn't have time to test and theorycraft. I might add some new ideas later.

Gameplay

As a DB RK your main goal is to stay on frontline and act as a wall between enemies and allies, not allowing enemies to pass through you. For this, you use 2009.png Dragon Howling to immobilize them and try to snipe their squishy DPSes with 5004.png Dragon Breath Water / 2008.png Dragon Breath when 255.png Devotion drops.

Always try to play with your supports and be proactive. Don't wait for 25.png Pneumas and/or 404.png Wall of Fog (Blinding Mist) on your feet and move to where it is casted. Try to be as vocal as possible and communicate with your team, you are in frontline and can have a nice view of what is happening in the GvG. If you get 255.png Devotion you can go for a more offensive setup and act as a secondary DPS.

War of Emperium: Training Edition!

Even if you played pre-renewal WoE for some time, keep in mind that WoE TE is nothing close to it. Even if it uses transclasses, it is still a renewal WoE, using renewal formulas and mechanics. I played some TE on brazilian official server mainly as a status LK and was really fun. But, due to the changes we had and to be a smaller WoE when compared to the 40 vs 40 GvGs of officials, status LK is nowhere as good as it is in officials.

This being said, this is the first time I'm playing as CS LK. I am NOT experienced and I'm still learning it, so this section will be updated more often as I figure out and theorycraft stuff.
