I know it annoys the hell out of Musey. Sounds like just more poor work from the inept devs.

Guess what too?
EA's TP Protection is broken again.
I <3 these devs.
It's still bugged because no one plays Widows anymore so no one caught it during I16 beta when the rest of the powers were fixed. (Also, Widows are the only epic AT with toggle KB protection and the devs have a tendency to forget the epics when they're making adjustments to similar powers for the other ATs.)

Well, at least people know about it. Maybe half a year from now, the devs will find out too. We can hope.
Ok been away for a while so forgive my ignorance.
Before KO Blow would put a hold on you and suppress your mez toggles right before the KB part hit. So no matter what, you would get hit with the KB unless you had 8 or more points of KB protection in IOs.
Has that been fixed?
Edit to add. Found the answer in the patch notes. You appear to be correct. Notes imply that it should be all powers with KB protection but goes on to only list the normal ATs and no VEATs as the ones being changed. I would send a bug report every time you get knocked back while held just out of spite but hey Im a dick.
Powers with knockback and repel protection should no longer suppress knockback or repel protection when held, stunned, or slept.
Includes all Brute, Scrapper, Stalker, and Tanker versions of Entropy Shield, Unyielding, Active Defense, Rooted, Granite Armor, Integration, Wet Ice, and indomitable will. Acrobatics also will not suppress the knockback portion.
My archery loves widows. But yea.....basically its not going to get fixed for awhile. The devs are mosty focused on Going Rogue ATM, so.......good luck at it getting fixed before that.
I'm surprised that I haven't heard a single thing about this from anybody else in the community. I noticed it months ago, but that's about how often I play my widow these days, so I forgot it about it until this weekend, when I played her again.
Night widow (and fort) kb protection was IGNORED when they fixed the whole "mez suppressing kb protection" bug. That's right, it's the one kb protection left that still suppresses every time you get mezzed. Every single time. Very easy to test - simply get hit with a ko blow, and you'll go flying every time. As far as I know, this is the ONLY remaining kb protection in the game that's still bugged like this.
Has anybody heard anything about this before? Is it a known bug? Or do so few people play the AT now, that nobody cares?
I really don't understand how they could have fixed the bug for every single power in the game, except one. It leads me to believe that they simply forgot that widows are an AT in the game, because they're like 0.00001% of the PvP population now.
