Knock off DR?

PVP Arenas
1

Do you think knock backs should have a DR or share DR?

for example pretend you are on blade edge arena vs hunter / ele and both classes have knock backs. You get knocked off platform 50% of the game and half game trying to reconnect.

Is there sense to make a DR out of it?

Some do, but not all. That is basically the issue.

For example, if a druid typhoon first and a monk wants to use ring of peace after, they are already on knock back dr. If you rop first though, it doesn’t trigger a knock back dr and you can still typhoon after.

Also the mage knock seems to be not trigger the dr, while the ele knock does afaik.

Its a really weird system.

There is DR however Unleash Shield isn’t under DR so you can knock someone 2 times. If I’d use Thunderstorm then you are immune to Vortex or Blast Wave.

This DR category already exists and is called “forced movement” or something of the sort :smiley: It includes knockbacks, Druid vortex, DK Death grip and basically every ability that moves your character.

So indeed, it already works just as you described it. If somebody pushes you off the edge, for the next 18sec any other push abilities will be half-effective (will push you less far away)

Because both spear and knockbacks are movement-forcing abilities in a sense that they move your character to a certain position.

There are these types:

  • knockbacks (mighy ox kick, kul tiran slap racial, thunderstorm, hi-explosive trap, blast wave, etc.)
  • abilities that restrict you to a certain area (spear of bastion, druid vortex)
  • abilities that deny a certain area (ring of peace)

All of these share the same DR category

spear of bastion even exists

It’s basically like a stun that deals a tone of damage. Yes, some classes can get out, but some have just nothing and it forces a bunch of cooldowns.

Ye I think there should be DR on them all. It’s so annoying
