Temple Knight (Temple Knight) is the second class of the elf fighter, from level 40 to 76. From level 76, the third class is Eva's Templar. The whole path: Elven Knight (20–40) → Temple Knight (40–76) → Eva's Templar (76+).

This is a light knight-tank. Aggression comes from Aggression (28), Aura of Hate (18) and Shield Strike (984); protection from Ultimate Defense (110), Guard Stance (288) and the shield. What sets the Temple Knight apart is cubics: Summon Storm Cubic (10) attacks enemies, Summon Life Cubic (67) heals the master and party, Summon Attractive Cubic (449) (lv. 62) constantly holds the enemy and draws its hatred. From level 43, Cubic Mastery (143) lets you keep two cubics at once.
