I've had both a blader and a glavier of equal level so I feel qualified in posting.

Knockdown works more often than Stun or Knockback, but after you knock someone down only swordsmen can attack with a few specific moves. However, you can strike more than once.

Stun or Knockback both cancel the other players attack. However, it is Stun that is most like Knockdown because it renders the player immobile for a few seconds after it had occured. Knockback just cancels the players move and pushes them back about a meter.

As for faster, probably Knockback is fastest, then Knockdown, and then Stun.

i like stun better... mainly becasue its a steady percent of if it will work unlike knock down when your using a lvl 41 skill on a 61 player it will only work like 20 percent but stun will always work the same percent plus if your int stun + nuke + mars = ownage

the knock down effect decreases for the level of the skill and level of the enemy

Correct me if I'm wrong but the percent for KD has gone done at 80 cap since the level of the skill is only 69 while the highest level is 80. I think knockback also cancels the skill the person is using.

No thats wrong it has NOT decreased they either have not implemented that effect or it says the wrong thing on the description. Otherwise how can it be explained that lvl 90s in jSRO knock each other down quite often with lvl 1 KD 1st book? And I've seen lvl 20s KD lvl 70s quite often sometimes when the 70 lets them.

No, the nuke is canceled.

that's quite different from what i'm experiencing in isro. L1 KD vs L50 mobs is definitely way below 50% success rate. i am seeing 20-25% (ie. 1 successful KD per 4-5 attempts). it is estimated that at 80, the success chance with KD maxed is abt 40-45% and at 90, abt 35-40%.

the only attack that can follow on someone who has been floored is a stab from the sword/blade skill tree. cant nuke, cant anything else...
