I translated all of this info from a Japanese Disgaea wiki, which is very informative. Magic Knights are extremely versatile when it comes to stats, but don’t excel in any particular area. However, their versatility alone gives them excellent endurance, especially for lengthy Item World trips.

It is a good idea to get your Knight on the path of the sword early so you can take advantage of the 30% INT boost when she reaches rank 6. This will probably compensate for the INT bonus she is losing by not wearing a wand, but allows her to be more offensive as a melee character.

It’s a good idea to put your Magic Knight in a club with a few Mages or Clerics so she can learn some magic skills to take advantage of her inherent evility and decent INT and SP scores.

Lastly, Magic Knights have no elemental weakness (all elements @ 25%), combining this with the different elemental body evilities and elemental charges makes for a warrior that fears no mage.

Check back for more info as I am always on the lookout for news on Disgaea 3.
