Hehe, fab pic - you've really captured the effort and precision that a kick in the tackle warrants if done properly. Look at the concentration in the face - splendid stuff, well done!

Been out putting the boot to more Longbows - I love the way people are flying around now with ragdoll physics, and if you need a reason to take Kick from the Fighting powerpool, do it for the privillege of booting opponents several yards away

Kick and Kick again

Nice screenshot.

From a game point if view I find knockback annoying (especially my own - I get quite annoyed with myself when I misjudge and knock something back with an attack that ends up not killing it), but my oh my it looks good now! I team my elec/elec blapper with a mind/kin controller fairly regularly. There is little in the game that makes me grin more than watching her throw something in the air with levitate so I can wack it with thunder strike while it's up there and send it's cold dead corpse flying accross the room

*sniggers*

Her being kinetic secondary is kinda nice too, not much survives a 500% damage capped thunder strike so I don't have to chase it again afterwards.

I have actually begun to use knockback as a tactical advantage - since introduction of ragdoll physics, opponents are both tossed further away and depending on where they land, they take a little while extra to get up and attack again. Those seconds gained can mean quite a bit to my Brute when I am engaging a larger crowd.

Love playing my Brute - its almost like being a Tanker again

Ahhh, there was nothing like standing in one of the troll caves, at the top of a loooong sloping caveways... Martial Arts Crane Kicking one poor troll after the other down the slope... one time after the other . Would've loved to try that with the ragdolling effects .

i found somewhere really good for knockback. fort cerberus on mercy island. if you go right to the top, and go off this pathway thing, then just down onto a ledge. theres loads of arachnoc there and if you use knockback on em, they fall about 200 yards to their untimely death. i was teaming with someone who fell off, and i was shooting soldiers off the egde and all i got was "hey stop that! that one nearly hit my head!" which was really funny.

gotta love ragdolling someone off of a cliff, great for anyone down at the bottom. the song "its raining men" comes to mind when it happens.
