Heavy Armor:
A Crusader is the Tank of the team, so he ought to have Heavy Armors in the battlefield. And you already have the Strength attribute, you are not going to slow down that much wearing those.
Restoration:
As a Tank, you are certain to face the heavier share of incoming damages from your opponents. So, make sure to add this skill into your inventory, as it will not only heal yourself but your teammates as well. Even higher Restoration skills unlock higher level healing spells.
Best Spells for a Crusader
Restore Fatigue:
Crusaders are made for long-standing duels, and for that you need to keep your stamina up to the mark. This spell will do that for you.
Fireball:
This spell is a great way for you to start the battle. As it's very cost-effective and huge damage dealing, this is a reliable option.
Shield:
