what if you had a weapon with knockdown and you hit a guy right in the chest, he gets damage but wouldn't you fall of your horse if you get a mace in your chest on horseback? that's my idea that you can fall of your horse if you get a knnockdownweapon in you chest. because pretty often i come against a knight on horseback that has plate armor and an armored horse, and as long that i don't have a pike or something i can bearely do something to him. so this might be the solution to that.

Well thought. +1. We would see nice stunts where the rider is knocked off and the horse keeping on galloping. Might require new animations.

true but the place where you'd have to hit to knock him off his horse is possible right?
-
You mean the chest? I guess it would work like for infantry, x% chance of knockdown whatever the location. Knocking legs of the rider should not cause a KD though
-
You've already got this. Jump and thrust, horseman dead.
-
We are dead when you slash us like that anyway.
Anyways, this would make our class pretty much useless, when we are dismounted, all we have left is a quarterstaff or similar bad sidearm.
Not to mention that it's hardcoded.

If you ever manage to land a good hit in the chest with a 2h KD weapon or long maul, at full speed, the tin can can have the gotick plate and I'm sure he'll probably be dead or almost! :shock:

War Saddles and Stirrups prevent riders from falling, if they are in a proper military saddle. This is consistent with history and video games.
Besides, even with PS 5 or 6 I am able to one shot any rider with a 2Her or Polearm due to the high speed that they are able to travel towards me with. Pointless if I kill them, on the small chance that they do survive (which is extremely rare) I say let them keep riding as a reward.
No to the idea, as I see little that would add to game play if this was added.

naaah bad idea..only give maces this ability makes them OP and almost everybody would run with a mace. and by the way its unreslistic that u just fall off your horse when u get hit by a mace, other weapons (i think of spear swing) would knock u off your mount too in real. so just leave it balanced as it isat the moment me thinks..
-
Doing this already knocks people off the horse. Though, they don't get back up afterwards.
-
Cav already get knocked out fo the saddle just fine. You get 100% chance of knockdown when they are dead. No need to add special abilities for that as it is very likely that you will kill the rider with the huge % speed bonus to damage (that he normally applies on you). A dead rider slowly rag-dolling off the horse is a beautiful sight - almost like watching a ballet.
