<p>4-4-8 int for spell crit and reaver.  Get the crits first as a lotof the reaver line you cant use untill lateron.  After that its up to you and your play style.  For eof sence you wont be tanking for groups you might want the pools line for the debuffs and reduced FD timer.</p><p>for kos you might want the wis line as the 3rd ability lets your runn around in def stancewith out any of the penilties.</p>

right... first you msut make sure you have the expansions Kingdom of skys (KOS) and Echos of faydewer (EOF)in the aa tab anmed "crusader" you start puting this in the starter box, its the only one you cna use your first skill for (unless you go stright for shadowknight tab) then aim for the inelegence bar (intelegence is the on the right edge) 4 in the first one, then beloce that you would unlock a new box as you placed 4 in the first in, so then you place 4 in the new box aswell, and 8 points in the 3rd int line box it should looks like this then:448commonly writen as int 4-4-8 (as you pushed the row aside to save space)then the strenght line, wich is the one to the far left, you put 4 points in the first and the second, 8 points in the 3rd and 6 poinsts in the 4th treedand finish it with placing oen point in the final skill (wich cost 2 AA points to get)so your str tree would look like this44861more commonly writen as 4-4-8-6-1when you understand this you cna start think of shadowknight tree, but for now try to figure out what all mean lolthis is probebly as good as i can explain it on a forum post <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />hope it helps

<p>I am a level 41 SK. Thus, take what I say with my level in mind since I am not raid qualified yet.</p><p> Most of what you will want will be for soloing and grouping before you hit level 70. Thus, you want to put your first 16 points into intelligence 4-4-8, where 8 is in the third tier in order to max procs. We shadowknights do a LOT more damage with procs if we get proc armor and weapons. </p><p>Once you do this, would recommend the next 23 points or so in Reaver. This gives us healing which is very beneficial to soloing. You need to max out your blessing line by 5 points,which gives a +35% to your healing. I also recommend max out life tap bonus. Your two main heals are life tap and blessings. I also recommend puting at least 3-5 points in harm touch healing. Each points addd about 129 hp to you. When you are using harm touch, this can really save you. Also puting points in harm touch and reducing the reuse time of life touch increases your hate line as well,which is something you should do when you reach raid qualification (around level 65+)</p><p> Thus, the first 16 points into intelligence and the next 23 points or more into reaver. </p><p> Most folks agree with this. The rest of your points is debatable. Some say adding 21 points into Agility increases your damage better than strength.Some argue that strength and stamina are better. As you can see one person advocated wisdom. Personally I like the strength and stamina line. You can rarely go long with extra strength and especially stamina for a tank and both increase your procs.</p><p> Once you get raid qualified, you might want to respec to max out the hate line or at least at some points to hate,which increases your taunt.</p><p> Hope this all helps. I would advise you to read over what the various aa points do in the crusader line for you to make an informed choice. Personally, I solo and group a lot. Thus, I like beefing up Reaver such as mana tap too. However, you don't get mana tap till later on, so puting points into this early won't be effective for quite a while.</p><p> Hope this all helps</p>

Be advised, some of the AAs overlap various other lines. For example, if you put 5 points into Drain Vitae, for example, not only are you helping yourself heal but you are adding 5 points to BOTH the Reaver and the Hate lines simultaneously. You should look for helpful AA items that have this type of overlap. This way, you get the best bang for each point by being able top go deeper into more AA lines. Just as nice trick to think about.
