Either way it makes whole lot of difference, especially since knights are equipped with 50 sec AoO and at least 4.5 k health.

Versus a warlock a knight needs all his health and then some. Using AoO costs a lot of mana, easiest skill to bypass. Often enough, the knight never gets close to a capable Warlock anyways. His own armour is used by the warlock to inflict damage. Blocking works only occsionally and in bursts when it does - which is rare (blocking is VERY VERY expensive for a knight in both setup points and mana for a 30 sec duration). Knights have no hope in hell to land a shield bash anymore (what was once its primary weapon without a shadow of a doubt).

While most classes have plenty of tools to reduce the effects of a skill like AoO (which in fact is a skill i despise), knights have very little to counter with.
Not to mention that our armour is a joke considering what a knight's role is.
