[QUOTE="VariSami, post: 6008037, member: 6698543"] I'm no expert but I'd probably go with Combat Reflexes (and a bit of Dexterity - 14 ought to be enough) and I'd specialize in a reach weapon. Then a dip of Crusader for the stance that allows attacks of opportunity against 5ft. steps. That way you'd be able to keep enemies occupied to the best of your ability. However, that build might not be optimal due to the use of Dex since Knight requires a bit of Cha as well. I don't think it's really a primary stat though, so maybe that build wouldn't cause MAD. But it also relies on the use of Book of Nine Swords, which not everyone allows. I think a Knight might be able to do mean things with a spiked chain and Improved Trip, though it's quite feat intensive without Fighter to back it up (and it requires Int 13, normally a dump stat). If you dip for Fighter, this might be worth it. I'm really not an expert on tank feat trees, though. When I tank, I prefer using templates like Feral and Mineral Warrior. Fast Healing and DR 8/adamantine help out quite a bit. [/QUOTE]
