Sir Baldwin
Sir Baldwin is knight #2 of 25 you can recruit in Loot Grinder, the free medieval idle clicker.
Backstory
Baldwin was a blacksmith's apprentice who forged his own armour before marching into his first border skirmish.
What knights do
Your highest-ranked knight sets a kingdom-wide casualty shield that reduces how many peons your disasters — dragon attacks, goblin raids, tornadoes, plagues and more — can claim. The shield is back-loaded, so each knight you recruit is worth more than the last, climbing toward a maximum of 75%.
Recruitment cost
Recruiting Sir Baldwin costs 2.04M loot — a one-time purchase.
Why it’s useful
Because the shield is back-loaded, this knight is worth more than the one before him — each recruitment buys a bigger slice of disaster protection on the climb toward the 75% cap.
