I solo roam/queue sc on my knight or bother the backline of enemy wb during a fight to the extent where they have to get rid of me.

solo build
superpunt is a must even solo, 1 healer wrecks your whole engagement, good magi/SH or too many witches are equally dangerous. Abuse terrain to weed out the targets that would wreck your fight.
renown is focused on crit reduction, parry, dodge/disrupt, no block (i know lmao, but it has a purpose)
Gear is 5 part conq for the healproc, onslaught for the massive 78hp/4sec, SNB for htl and deceit only. Winds impervious tali set (sometimes 2 part catered to the damage sources i am going to face).
SC weapons with parry or regen.
Regen gear is for solo roam, parry is for sc.

In sc i switch emperors ward and rugged for focused mending and coordination. And i switch the onslaught chest for the 6part bonus of conq.
The reason i dont stack block is because its expensive and in 1v3 migitation/regen stats give you better survivability and i rather have good parry and htl when i need it (during gapclose)
than block. Also runefang doesn't proc on block. The block check has priority over parry in the avoidance calc.

Auras i usually run stay focused and stand strong, 3rd aura either melee reflect, resistances, healdebuff (sc or when soloflanking the healers of a wb) or the aoe dps aura

So, do you normally run 2H for roaming and SCs, or are you doing SnB? What talismans do you run in your gear? Does priority for defensive stats (e.g. parry vs. block) still apply when running with WBs? Just got my knight to 40, and I’m looking for something to do when there aren’t any WBs going. Would love to connect with you in game and get some pointers. I’ve been asking in advice chat, but I’ve been getting one word responses or not a lot of information from people.

Run runefang, heal aura tactic, coordination, and rugged. Change out coordination sometimes for others. I run heal aura, tough aura, and rotate third from resist to thorn shield aura. Full invader. Find it works well for solo/duo play.

I have 10k armor, 880 toughness, and like 4800 armor. What are some numbers I should be looking for? Armor to low? Toughness to low? Etc. resist are 800, and chance to be crit is 0, block and party sit at 25ish without runefang and shield rush/coordination procs, run vigilance also.

Any other good solo SnB knights wanna share their spec?

Mainly solo q and like to hold points if it’s a cluster **** of a group, can typically survive 3-4 players beating on me with pots/healpots/heal procs
I run a feedback chosen and am jealous of the feedback builds you can get with a kotbs. Sunfury and sun blessing means a strong retaliation with 5 second down time with the sun shield. Probably also best options with defensive stats because you don’t need offensive stats to drive damage.
