Tips and Tactics[ | ]

  • Knight / Priest is one of the best tanking options for players who want an answer for emergency situations. Its elite skills not only help take the pressure off of healers, but also provides many mercies for mistakes.
  • If you find yourself not needing to tank, switching to a Priest / Knight will instead make you an extremely effective healer. As such, a Knight / Priest is able to fit multiple cornerstone positions in PvE content.
