For the minority that has no knock resistance, it'd be a bit nice and could possibly promote STR-less builds. But someone with 10 Ego and Force Geyser can still reliably knock someone with over 200 Strength.

IMO Ego should give kb resistance like STR.

O_O how come this is the first post considering I did not make this thread? lol forum bug.

    Solid str is standard as knocks are guaranteed durations of being unable to act when they proc. Unlike holds or roots, they cannot be broken out of.

    Eliminate the need for knock rez would open up more avenues, however balancing such a change would be the bigger issue. If everyone has the same chance to knock/get knocked, that doesn't deter their use unless chance is reduced to near uselessness.

    However, without rewards to entice new players, the pvp community is left to slowly wither away.

    All players got a base 100% knock resistance vs other players, regardless of builds/gear. Knock resistance acquired otherwise would not add to that amount, and would instead replace it after surpassing it (i.e. if you have 160 Strength, you would then have 160% knock resistance, not 260%.)

    Let's hear some theories :O

    Yay for bugged threads! :)

    Well I would be fine with this, having knockback resistance hurts in PvP. ;D

    Perhaps stuns should become better and as useful as knocks are?
