[QUOTE="Particle_Man, post: 3323160, member: 892"] My Hexblade bit the big one so I decided to try out a Knight from PHB II. It was actually quite cool. I had great hp, great armor (mithral full plate - with the knight's ability to move in medium armor at 30, plus the free endurance feat, it was pretty sweet), and lots of help from buffing spellcasters. We got attacked by "flying stony demons" that I imagine OOC were gargoyles. My charisma was not great (I put the higher rolls in physical stats) but I was able to use that test of mettle to hold some of them anyhow, and keep them off a spellcaster's back. When the spellcaster foolishly attacked one of the monsters I was "holding", I got an Aoo because of the difficult terrain ability, as the monster left, killing it (it had been previously wounded). Mind you, I also got to start the game with some oils of bless weapon, which helped a lot. I one-shotted a baddie on a threat that became an auto-crit. :) So whatever problems other people may have with them, I am personally having a ball with the Knight, and recommend the class to others that want to play a tank.
