Mag 0.67, just like most KD powers.

What lieutenants are you sending flying...?

Well, I'm out of guesses

Do you have other IO sets that increase knockback?

Speaking of Rag procs... can anyone tell me whether this proc only procs once on cast or if it procs everytime a power clicks DoT. For example, I have it slotted in Caltrops at the moment. For a brief time, it would knockdown foes more than once while they were still on the Caltrops. But this no longer seems to be the case. I, too, believe I've knocked down the occasional lt. with it, but not usually.

[/ QUOTE ]Nothing procs per DoT tick. In toggle and auto powers (and the damage from Caltrops is actually an auto power coming from a pet that you've summoned), IOs will proc once every 10 seconds. For everything else (ie: Click powers), they proc on activation.

Thanks. Sorry, I didn't do a good job of explaining what I meant. Based on this about auto/toggles vs clicks, my real question then is whether Caltrops counts as an auto (since it is a pet) and procs every 10 secs, or if it is merely a click attack and procs on cast?

Also...testing out lt knockdown last night....I could not KD a single LT solo. I must have had caltrops stacked with some other effect from a teammate like Freezing Rain or something.

I slotted the Ragnarok proc in Caltrops and it works great. Maybe the LTs you were fighting have knockback protection?

Why would knockback protection send them flying when rag fires?

It sounds like a bug.

[/ QUOTE ]As I said, Caltrops summons Pets.Caltrops, which has an auto power called Pets.Caltrops.Caltrops

So by that logic, the Rag proc in Caltrops should be making a check to proc every 10 seconds. I can't tell that it is. Only notice it on cast. Could be that stuff dies too quickly. Could be a bug. That's what I am trying to figure out. Guess I need to kill slower to savor that Rag Proc Caltrop Goodness.

And yes...maybe the lts had KB protection. Guess more testing is in order.
