Thanks everybody, I was unaware of the knockdown / knockback game mechanic. The guides to /ss use the word knockdown and the paragon wiki lists Punch and Haymaker as having knockdown, so I thought it was a separate ability.

And yes, they were clockwork, blue to white cons.

I was playing my tank today after the patch and his Punch and Haymaker abilities now do Knockback. The tooltips show knockback now. Previously these abilities did Knockdown.

I don't see anything in the patch notes about this. Is this an intended change? If so, its more difficult to tank if the tank is constantly knocking his foes away from him.

It also seems sometimes my Haymaker was not showing an animation.
