i heard a rumor that on test there is 50%knockdown resist and 25% pvp damage? is this just a rumor or is this true? cuz if its true...that rocks!, it would make pvp waay more fun- i.e. no more one hit kills, less knockdowns...ect...

You are mistaken. The next patch will introduce a 75% decrease in all pvp damage. Knockdown HAM costs will be increased. An opponent while knocked down will take 50% more damage (wich is where I think you got that 25%, even though with the percentage it does not exactly equal 25%). check the test center boards for the notes.

Yup, I think this is the idea to keep people from spamming knockdown as much perhaps. The knockdown itself isn't 50% more, but any attacks after that will be while you are defenseless. Which means you should have time to get up and get a shot off before he queues up another knockdown, which will be more expensive to use anyway.

is that 50% more damage mean 50% more than now or 50% more after the 75% reduction?

i think the latter of the two which would equal out to about 37% of the current damage as opposed to 25% of the current damage ( 100%damage - 75%= 25% damage| 25% damage +(25% x 50%) = 37.somedecimalpoint)

i think that's right......i hate math

Basic math... it doesn't matter when the 50% is applied
