    It has always been mysterious on how the heavily armored knight can run so quickly and jump so high. However, when experimenting in sandbox, I found knights can get over 7 block tall walls.
    Through a series of slash jumping, wall jumping, and shield gliding, you can get over these structures.
    My astonishment:

    It took me a fucking lot number of tries, but the fact that I could do it, was incredible. Remember, that's nearly double of what could be done in classic.
    Thoughts?


    E: Now I better go master it and get called a h4x0r.

    could you post a video or at least the steps to do it? I can get up 4-5 block walls every so often, but 7 is insane.

    But on the topic of knight mobility: Knights need to be fast, if they could be out-run then they would be useless

    What I do, is I slash jump for max height, wall jump off the wall, then then tap rmb for a mini height boost and hope I can clamber over the edge. Might get around to a video.
    And for the running fast thingy, I just felt it was a good way to start the post. :p

    I tested a bit and I was able to to get 7 blocks up, it took me a while but it worked 0_0

    I vote they remove the double slash jump, if your good at it you can jump 5-6 blocks easily, and 7 is just crazy

    I was trying to get a video but failed miserably. At least now you see it's possible.

    You used to be able to climb 8 blocks high, but then the devs implemented a short time interval between any other action / shielding.

    Knight mobility adds to the game's current issue: buildings are underpowered.
    Build any kind of siege equipment, get that sucker over to a building, and bam - the whole thing is done for. Building a lot is hard, too, because resources seem to get spent a lot quicker than they did in Alpha....

    Except for catapults. Those things cant do shit unless they are used like they are supposed to, and use boulders. Not too many people realize how powerful boulders are versus buildings.

    This is why I press "5" when ever a knight ninjas his way into my base and my spike spamming makes him eat shit

    I tend to find that shielding up gives a short upwards boost.

    When do you shield up? At the start of the jump or half way?

    Works with both. With the full jump though... it does get you higher. And isnt just part of the jump.

    I've scaled entire forts 15+ blocks tall. Just takes me a minute or two.

    As it stands [866] you can get over any smooth surface if you glide+wallrun.
