For defensive purposes, you should not need knockback if you do use a lv.9-12 GD. GD stun lasts for 5 seconds, and the cooldown is 4.2 seconds. With GD alone you can defend yourself using stun (and more aoe than cannons), without having to spread out your mobs. Sonic can be a secondary stun, or vice versa, depending on which stun skill you like better (although you need to alternate between both constantly if you have both at lv.20).
Knockback is only useful in pve when you are comboing one/two mobs, because the knockback will protect you while you combo lances (high dps) instead of using sonic/gd (low dps). But when up against multiple mobs, sonic and gd is better all around for the fact that they have more aoe, and they will hold the mobs together instead of spreading them out.
