He has a nisorock I think?

And I like that theory, hitting over the flinch amount results in more chance of kb.

Come to think of it, I am hardpressed to remember a time after the PKB change when my PKB flinched, and the monster didn't go flying back.

Woah Kev. I was just browsing sleepy and found someone basically saying this:

Without PKB (normal bow whack), if you deal above the flinch number than you get that bow's %tage of knocback. Anything below and it wont knockback ever.

So your PKB+bos forbove flinch, and PKB for below is looking good.

I am still convinced of a level difference though >_>

I thought that was common knowledge :blink:

As for a level difference, I'd think thats because you do more damage on lower level monsters, and they have lower KB rates, while higher lv monsters have really high KB rates, and defence

Always seemed to me like my strless's level 1 PKB was better at knocking back than a regular whack o_O
Couldn't be just 2%. Maybe it's just some monsters' KB rates of like 50.

Well, remember, PKB doesn't just add to your KB rate, it also does alot more damage. I do like 300 MAX with my bowhack, and closer to 1k with PKB.

The extra boost from PKB's damage lets you go past the flinch rate easier :D

He hardly uses it regardless of how it works.

Techno can test it if he does reset it(LOL, Techno doing a field test. as if)


and if all else fails, I'll do the test myself xP

Thats like saying that lv 1 L7 doesn't do more than a regular star. The formula is different. I'm almost completely sure of this...

MEH.
We don't know the bowwhack damage formula, anyway.
And anyways, 1 L7 is like 2x70% damage

I mean per star. 1 L7 star does more than a regular star at lv 1, because the formula is different

I gptta do my PKB stioll. I'm actually in vic atm, perhaps over the weekend.

As fir PKB, I find myself using it, but I could live w/o it and have the same %/hour.

PKB prob saves one 5 barbs an hour, it does more, but than again there's the time that PKB doesn't kb and I end up taking damage.
