Quick Build
- Recommended Build
- Spear Lord Knight (mounted), same core as Knight
- Playstyle
- Frontline melee with a bigger burst option (Spiral Pierce) and better survivability (Parrying)
- Difficulty
- Same as Knight, plus a longer late-game skill list to fill in
- Primary Stats
- STR, VIT, DEX, AGI — unchanged from Knight
- Primary Weapon
- Spear (mounted) — same weapon choice as Knight
- Best For
- Knight players who want more tools without changing their core identity
- Strengths: Aura Blade adds a flat damage buff on top of your existing Mastery/Bowling Bash kit, Spiral Pierce is a genuine new burst option, Parrying gives you real damage mitigation you didn't have as Knight.
- Weaknesses: still no self-heal (that's Paladin's identity, not this one); Frenzy trades your HP pool for damage and needs careful use, not a build-around.
What Changes From Knight
Lord Knight keeps every skill Knight has — Spear Mastery, Cavalier Mastery, the full
Bowling Bash chain, all of it, unchanged. Rebirth adds six new skills on top (LK_
prefix in this server's skill tree): Aura Blade, Parrying, Concentration, Frenzy, Spiral
Pierce, Traumatic Blow, and Vital Strike. Your build doesn't change — you're still the
same Spear-and-Peco Knight from before, just with more late-game tools layered on.
New Skills
Priority
- Aura Blade (requires Bash 5, Magnum Break 5, Sword Mastery 5) — a self-buff that adds flat bonus damage to your physical attacks. Cheap prerequisites relative to its payoff; take this early.
- Spiral Pierce (requires Spear Mastery 10, Pierce 5, Spear Stab 5, Two-Hand Quicken 1) — a spear line-attack that hits everything between you and the target. Your best new burst option, and it scales off the same Spear Mastery investment you already maxed.
Strong Utility
- Parrying (requires Two-Hand Sword Mastery 10, Increase HP Recovery 5, Two-Hand Quicken 3) — while active, gives a chance to block incoming physical attacks entirely. Real survivability, not a minor buff.
- Vital Strike (requires Spear Mastery 9, Cavalier Mastery 3, Traumatic Blow 3) — a hard-hitting spear strike with a bonus-damage window right after use. Good single-target damage between Bowling Bash cooldowns.
Situational
- Traumatic Blow (requires Spear Mastery 9, Riding 1) — a spear strike prerequisite for Vital Strike above; usable on its own but mostly a stepping stone.
- Concentration (requires Increase HP Recovery 5, Spear Mastery 5, Riding 1) — a short ATK/DEF self-buff. Fine filler, not a priority.
- Frenzy (requires Job Level 50, Increase HP Recovery 50) — trades a large chunk of your current HP for a big attack/movement speed spike. Genuinely strong for a planned burst window, genuinely dangerous if you pop it carelessly — know your healing plan before you use it.
Equipment & Cards
Rebirth doesn't introduce a new weapon type here — your refined, carded Halberd or Lance from the Knight guide carries forward unchanged, along with Skeleton Worker, Kobold, and Zerom cards. There's no upgraded Peco Peco mount in this server's data either (a "Grand Peco" only exists as a huntable monster/card here, not a rideable upgrade) — you keep riding the same rented Peco Peco. Put any new equipment budget toward refine levels and accessories rather than a gear swap.
Party Role & PvM
Same frontline role as Knight, with more staying power — Parrying meaningfully reduces incoming physical damage while it's active, and Aura Blade raises your sustained auto-attack/Bowling Bash damage. Against tougher single targets (including MVP-class monsters, where they're in reach), Spiral Pierce and Vital Strike give you burst options Knight didn't have, on top of the same Bowling Bash you already rely on for groups.
