Runes of Magic spells for the Knight Primary

May 9, 2009 Tina Samuels

All of the listed skills and spells are for a Knight primary character in Runes of Magic only. They cannot be used when a Knight secondary is played.

With the aspect of dual classes available in the Runes of Magic game, players can have a primary class and a secondary class. While all the class skills are available to the primary class that is played, only general skills are available to the secondary class played.

Knights are the class that can have the properties of a priest and a warrior, plus they are the class that is able to wear plate armor in the game. Choosing a knight as a primary or secondary class can have great benefits. These are the skills that are playable with a Knight class as the primary class.
