sucks

I do not think there is really a reason. I see people with heavy armor or plate getting knocked down as often as anyone else.

Its a poorly implemented game mechanic. RNG has no real place in a game like M&B, should be controlled by the players not random chance

true, you should fall down any time and then beg and then suck my penis every time I command you


non-maul pleb.

Crushthrough is also pretty retarded as a game mechanic, the way its implemented

If we're just talking about knockdown though, i'd make the chance 0% until a certain condition is met and then make it 100%. So its decided by the players actions what happens rather than a dice toss by the server. So if the damage is over 40 for eg it is auto knockdown, or if you hit the head, or if its a back hit. Stuff like that that can be countered rather than just random factors. Missing 1 block should not put you out of the fight against some shitty 1 hander

no offense man you are awful with a maul. 8 out of 8 hits that are knockdowns are out of hand

Thanks Make sure to remind that to me next time I am at top kills in the server again. I will slow down my performance to match your vision of me.

8/8 of knockdowns are because you didn't defend yourself correctly.

Easy to deal with, just dance outside his range with some kind of polearm and an agi build.

[Digglez]

I was under the impression that damage taken is part of the factor of whether you get knocked down. wearing shit armor = more chance to get knocked down.

Stop wearing shit rags for armor

[FRANK_THE_TANK]

Your exaggerating, I doubt your discription of the event and demand video footage as proof.

@Digglez, it's not. You can get hit with a glance and get knocked down.

I know how you feel.  To me it seems like I get knocked down on the first hit every damn time.  Yet when I'm the one wielding the knockdown weapon, it rarely procs.

Your build has nothing to do with getting knocked down. Two things can knock you down:

• Being trampled by horses
• Getting hit with a blunt weapon

Mind you, blunt weapons only have a chance to knock you down. The knockdown chance is based on the amount of damage that's been dealt. So a flanged mace doesn't knock people down much unless they land a held attack (hold for 0,5 sec) on the head, but the long hafted spiked mace or maul has a much better chance of knocking people down.
