First of all, Hi. I'm new^^

For that bow skill with knockback. Is it the skill where you shoot a few arrows fast after eachother? If so, when the new skills come out and you allready have those skills will you just get knockback?

The skill that will have knockback is the one that shots multiarrows

only the 5 combo get knock back

a bower would be untouchable if all combo's could knock back :shock:

A bowmen would always combo, the enemy would never get an attack out as KB stops all attacks.

EDIT: Either that or everyone learns to use the walls.

get ur parry ratio as high as possible and u will get kb perhaps from 2 of the 5 arrows, max. 3.

Parry ratio doesn't change how often you get KB'ed. Does it?

u have 1962 posts and u dont know that? what have u been doing all the time?

no, it doesn't change how many times you get kb'd. just how much the other person's damage ranges from... sheesh

Yeah, parry ratio makes no difference in how many times you get knocked back.

Also, imagine if all combos knocked back, then int bow would be the best build, lol. Because as str bow, lower level combos would do little damage. But as int, they'd all be really powerful, and they'd all knock back.

parry ratio does not effect kb, just accept the fact you were WRONG

taintofsleep · Post by **taintofsleep** » Tue Jun 19, 2007 2:31 am

Wait, so the higher level you are the less you know? A level 80 and a 69 and you didn't know that? hmmm.. that's odd.

how do you know that YOU are right? i've done so many tests and consulted so many high lvl friends. they're of the same opinion as me. and the result of my tests have been proven correct.

have u guys never wondered, why some ppl are easier to stun, kb or kd as others, when u used the same weapon? so stop talking noobish shit with ur 1xxx posts and blame urself.

and do some high lvl pvp with same lvl opponents 1st, b4 thinking of teaching me, especially when ur 3x. that's like a math student in high school, who says u cannot divide through infinity, but a math student at university may say, u can.

the weapon doesn't even matter and you're just talking rubbish... it's just a matter of chance and parry ratio has nothing to do with it

TwelveEleven · Post by **TwelveEleven** » Tue Jun 19, 2007 12:30 pm

All the arrows (out of the 5) have a 30% chance to knock back. So EVERY single arrow has 30% chance to knock someone back. That's (almost) 1/3 arrows. So you can get lucky and knochback with all 5, or you get unlucky and don't knockback at all.

Also the Strongbow skill has a stun effect.

I will ask you the same question.

What you say you have done has no more weight than what other people have said against your theory.

It is generally accepted that parry ratio works in the opposite manner as attack rating, where attack rating causes you to hit closer to the maximum of your damage range, parry ratio makes your opponent hit closer to their minimum of their damage range. Parry here is not like it is in many other games where parry = dodge attack.

Instead of being arrogant, try to show proof of your theory.

i posted already i've done several test. but im not gonna waste my time with u noobs are more. instead i will be pwning u in game. that's good enough. i dont need the approval of a bunch of noobs and i dont have to propagate my theory.

Yes. You posted already saying you have done several tests. Where are these tests? People arent just going to believe what you say, especially when they already believe differently. You have to show them that what you say is true. Which BTW, you cant.

Im glad you arent searching for approval, because you arent going to get it with an attitude such as yours.

I couldnt have said it any better.

There used to be a member just like this; he tried making us believe what he
believed without screenshots. He found out that we wouldnt listen without
him providing us with proof.. so he started flaming everyone.

He left us about a week ago.
