How does one break this ?
I have been hit with it a number of times now with the same result.
I get KD and no matter what I do I can seem to get back up. Jedi walks up and bye bye to my neck .

Just wondering if there is a way to break this.

Thanks

Are you using Knock Down Recovery? Because /stand wont work if you are KD'd. Atleast not for me it doesnt.

It helps to pick up some def v. kd aa/ca or some foods (if there are any?). Not an end all, but helps resist it somewhat. Publish 19 is going to fix some of this issue though.

ranged kd will be an MLS ability. I think the double blade will still have a kd.

From what I understand, the Jedi will lose thier Ranged KD,but retain thier Sweep KD (I think thats the one). But Master Light Sabers will have a Ranged KD.

That is correct. Those of us who are MLS, will still be able to use Advanced Saber Throw and get a KD. They took away the area effect of all saber throws and changed it the KD ability from the improved version to the advanced one. It doesn't affect my jedi as I avoided using saber throw because I didn't want to agro a whole bunch of creatures or NS on me.

nope.


Whats happening is that all saber throws are being down graded by 1 step


saber throw will just be a range damage attack

Improved will be a range damage attack with more damage -- Lost its KD ability

Advance will be a realy high damage attack with a KD attack -- Lost its cone


So an MLS jedi will have a range KD attack with advance throw and a melee KD attack with saber sweep, which is found in the saber tech branch, xxx1 sabers

Sorry to troll, but yes KD will be a MLS skill only. The only other issue with KD in game is usually in PvP is lag. Sometimes bad lag can stop you from getting back up with KD recovery.

Not entirely correct.


Current Lightaber is gaining a Knockdown ability through saber throw that's found in teh techniques tree x/x/x/4. What's being done is they are removing the Area of Affect on the entire saberThrow attack (this is very good for jedi) and the onlt option for a ranged KD will be if the Jedi has mastery in sabers.


/saberThrow- xxx2 (just basic 32m ranged attack with no states or effects)


/imporvedSaberThrow -xxx4 (32m range ^)


/advancedSaberThrow - Lightsaber Master (32m range with KnockDown ability)


*Keep in mind saber throw is also getting a "slight" boost in dmg. Probally somewhere around 10% increase. The action and force costs are being reduced on ALL saber attacks to fit it inline with the other "fixes". I wouldn't be concerned that someone would recieve an advantage from this increase in damage. The real benefit to 90% of the Jedi is that AoE is being removed from the SaberThrow thus no longer inadvertantly pulling agroes while attmpting to toss a saber at a BH staning in a mob of nasties.


edit: (too early and I think I was given decaff) Daoublebladed sabers have a knock down ability although I do not recall offhand where it's located in 00x0.
