Human Melee/Magic hybrid, like this Mortal Online 2 Death Knight build are incredible strong right now. Lots of people are trying different builds using small amounts of magic on mostly melee characters, and the “Death Knight” is one of the coolest. Running into battle in full armour, with a walker at your side and necromancy spells mid fight, is one of the coolest ways to play Mortal Online 2

Death Knight Character Creator
The Mortal Online 2 Death Knight Build is best mage as a human, as they have the perfect mix of melee and magic clades and give a well rounded mix of strength and intelligence. We recommend the following stats to build the perfect dark melee foot fighter:
- Race: Human (Tindremic) – Play tindremic for the benefits to casting.
- Age: 30
- Height: 186
- Weight: Stout
Death Knight Clades
The human clades give a great balance of melee and magic clade gifts, so you can pick up lots of clades here to really fill out your class. Here are the recommended important clades:
These set of clades will really set your build up well, and we’ll explain them below.
Cleric: This lets you have a base mana regen of 20% even in heavy armour, which you will need as an armoured dark knight.
Tactician: When casting necromancy spells like Auw Surge, this clade point will prevent you injuring your allies as much
Human Warcry: Also due to the reliance of AoE magic in Mortal Online 2, this reduces magic damage to you and your allies.
Additional Stat Points: The human tree gives a TON of stats for both melee and magic, so we suggest taking every single one.

Death Knight Action Points
You have a Total of 1,150 action points and you can build the character however you want, but here is a good framework:
- Sprinting 100
- Blocking 100
- Defensive Stance 50
- Aggressive Stance 100
- Combat Manoeuvring 100
- Armour Training 100
- Heavy Armour Training 100
- Ecumental 62 (42 + 20 clade bonus)
- Vitalism 100
- Mental Training 100
- Mental Offense 100
- Necromancy 100
- Swords 100
You get multiple points back from being a human, and although something costs “100” you get between 5 and 9 refunded due to your high int, dex etc, so you can use this as base to build your dark knight however fits your playstyle.
How To Play Death Knight In Mortal Online 2
The death knight playstyle in Mortal Online 2 is heavy on the melee footie, but struggles on the magic side due to heavy armour. Wearing heavy armour reduces your mana regen to 10%, increased to 20% with the human “cleric” clade, so we have to be careful with mana.
During small battles of only a couple of people, you can use spells like blind to make enemies unable to see, or death hand to leech health and deal damage. You can also summon a walker or two during combat for additional melee bodies if you’re facing pets or heavy armoured footies. And then in large scale battles, you can push forward with cloud of ashes and auw surge, to mask your approach and deal huge AoE damage to enemies, before rushing in with your sword.
