We don't know much about how augments affect each archetype specifically. Maybe a Tank's Onslaught can be augmented with Fighter with a chance to knock the enemy down.

Cant wait to hear more on this class and the augments.

It's in the name.

I winder how it will play though with fighter being your secondary to be a knight, compared to the other tank classes, I'm hoping for a tank yes but maybe with some strong ish dps, its not like a knight can't fight you know lol. Fun to speculate.

Fun to speculate. If you're looking to deal strong ish dps while having the ability to take aggro you might wanna look into Dreadnought as well. I'm theorizing it'll fill the role of an off tank.

A first archetype tank can't be an off tank, because his main role is to tank. Off tanks will be the classes that take tank as their secondary archetype.

How much DPS you get depends on the augments you apply, your stats and your skill point allocation. A Knight can boost DPS with Racial and Social Org augments, in addition to Secondary Augment augments.
