The gap in DPS is noticed in your smaller groups (lets just talk trios and quads for scope). Duo is different because it depends on your partner. For instance, pally is great w/ necro and enchanter for instance because you essentially play like a support char to the charmed pets. But if you're a cleric you're gonna take that war w/ truncheon and vyemm whip all day, every day, no questions asked. Don't get me started on shaman, its not even close. Let's not focus on duos.

There are so many variables you could skew together to make a weak argument for knights, but if you're with competent people there is basically zero real-world instances where you want a pally/SK over a war...and this gap gets massive with the bloat gear of end velious where level 50 wars are rocking 41% haste and near BiS weapons.

I'm not talking about farming King at 60. That can be duo'd / trio'd with a number of combos. Normal XP groups that are not mob/spawn-capped where you're trying to chew through as many kills an hour as possible...you're taking the war all day er'day unless they're in total rags with shit weapons...which doesn't exist really on P99 these days.

Build your best trio / 4 man group compositions for XP. None of them include knights (let's face it its cleric + 2x/3x enchanter but lolcharm). It just gets worse starting at 52 w/ evasive for those "oh fuck" moments when your overzealous puller YOLOs 7 toughies.

Knights aren't bad...but war is just so far ahead.

Fortunately there are still people playing p99 that are absolute dogshit at this game. Knights help here.
