Beyond leveling content, ignore riposte at your peril. It looks small on a log parser but it's the spikes that kill you. Damage spikes due to riposte damage become very significant when tanking difficult opponents, particularly since the knightly classes lack any discipline-based damage reduction. Eating a couple of 400 or 500 damage ripostes in quick succession can quickly make the difference between a complete heal landing versus eating dirt. If I'm a tank for something that I'm worried might kill me, I won't even turn on attack and hold hate solely with spells.

-----------------------------------------------

For the most part there isn't a lot of difference between 1H and 2H. You see Shadow Knights (and Paladins) using either because, ultimately, either will get the job done. Don't over-think it.
