LF current KotBS builds for small scale (2 hand & S&B)

As title says, I need some Knights here to help me with some decent builds for 2 handed Knight as well as a S&B build for roaming with 6 or less people. I've checked ShadowWar and Gottschalt's builds but I'm not sure how current Gott's is and ShadowWar's build seemed to draw some criticism, though could be good still. I'm just now coming back to the class after a VERY long break and am just recently 40 so any help would be appreciated.

Edit: My current S&B build RoR.builders - Knight of the Blazing Sun

I’d suggest something like this for 2h group play:

https://builder.returnofreckoning.com/c ... ,8062,8060

Change morales as needed. Toss remaining point in whatever tree you prefer to buff additionally, or grab Dirty Tricks to have a decent SnB tactic available for situations that call for a shield.

You can also drop Overpowering Swing and instead go more cc-heavy with Heaven’s Fury. But that would of course leave you without the main reason to play 2h kotbs in grp.

Alternatively, you can also go more offensive with something like this:
https://builder.returnofreckoning.com/c ... ,8043,8060

Again, variations can be made according to preferences or needs - i.e. drop Myrmidia’s Fury for Slice Through etc, or get knockdown from mid tree instead of stagger. I personally prefer grabbing the stagger, as it allows for grabbing Focused Mending as well. But in the end, it would all depend on group needs or wants.

Thanks for the builds, I'll try these out.
