Quick question about the "knockdown" condition. - Guild Wars Forums

Maladjusted · May 07, 2006, 08:02 AM // 08:02

If you knockdown an opponent for 2 or more seconds, can you hit them with more than one special attack and have them connect? Or are knocked down opponents given some limited invulnerability?

Thanks in advance.

No invulnerabilty or special vulnerability at all. They're just knocked down and you can hit them as if they're standing up. It's used to keep them from running, interrupting and keeping them from casting or using most skills.

btw what happens if you knockdown an already knocked down opponent? Will this prolong the knockdown or it won't count?

I think it doesn't count as when they are getting up trying to knock them down doesn't work because that way you could have someone on the floor constantly without giving them a chance.

It will not count.
Save up that knock down when your victim gets back on his or hers feet first.
For example:

1. Devastating Hammer
2. Fierce Blow
3. Heavy Blow

Execute the above skills in order and your victim will be knocked down for 2 times.

By the way, this topic belongs in the Questions and Answers forum.
