KNIGHT
"I commend your courage, but I shall show you no mercy."
Clank, clank, clank. Maybe a bit stodgy, but always deserving respect, the Knight is an emblem of idealistic chivalry and noble strength. No matter to what cause their service is pressed - the protection of a pilgrim on a long and fiend-ridden road, a quest to defeat fiends and restore light to the world, or a desperate attempt to bring reason to their power-mad liege - their power and leadership brings a moment's pause to all those that find themselves against the shining Knight.
A physical attacking job that favors heavy weapons, the Knight learns a series of talents designed to solve the specific problems monsters present - where other jobs might aim for weaknesses, the Knight's strategy is to rip the strengths of enemies to shreds with "Break" abilities. These talents are paired with a suite of abilities well suited to the front-liner swordsman, serving to protect them, bolster their melee strikes, and shield the party.

The Knight gains a Defense Factor against the triggering attack. The defense factor gains increases any defense factor the Knight might already have; if the Knight has none, they gain a 4/5th defense factor. Otherwise, the potency increased from 4/5 to 3/5, 3/5 to 2/5, 2/5 to 1/5th. If the Knight already has a 1/5th defense factor when Block activates, they instead take no damage from the attack (though it still counts has having been hit, rather than having missed).
