SM or KotBS to main?

[LoneGunner]

Topic is the question. I am enjoying both classes and I know they are different but I want to main and focus on one.

Are they both equally wanted or is the KotBS more due to the Aura's?

Are they both good at DPS (For a Tank ofc) or is it just one?

Either way I lvl them should I do SnB or 2h? I was told it didn't matter as long as you guarded smartly and wern't dumb.

Thanks!

Both are wanted but Knight is the superior tank both in terms of utility and survivability. The SM is better at damage but if you want a high-damage melee elf go with a White Lion or even a geared SW.

All the "special" SM warband utility comes from Whispering Wind. If you don't have that, then generally speaking the warband is better off with Knight instead of a SM.

2H SM are probably superior in roaming gank squads due to their higher DPS and mobility (Wings of Heaven).

All that being said, play what makes you happiest.
