Yes, and you should use search.
And this should be in the Questions and Answers.

And to answer your question,

KD/AS - Knockdown/Aftershock
IWAY - I Will Avenge You!

If you took the time to learn "WTF" - I am sure you can find it in yourself to use the search option.

There's hundreds of these - certainly too many to individually list. One that's missing off that list ( from above ) would be:


I.A.S -- You might hear Warriors and Rangers talking about IAS --> Increased Attack Speed.

It's usually essential to bring some if you actually plan to damage anything =)


Also a variant on the KD/AS would be the Smiting damage route with a KD/HS ( Holy Strike ) Warrior
