Battle Axe question

Are Whirling Axe and Pendulum both knockdown powers or do either of them knockback?

I mean "knockback" power without any knockback enhancements in it.

i think they do knockback, but the magnitude of the kb isnt high enough to knockback even con or higher foes, it just does knockdown (kb = kd when kb is less than 1), i think both of those powers have a kb of .7 ish so against higher lvl foes it does kd and against lower lvl foes it does kb

All of the Battle Axe Attacks (except Swoop) have 0.67 magnitude Knockback. As Necro said this is low enough that against even con and higher enemies it will only deal knockdown but against lower level enemeis it will deal knockback.

Thanks for the info. I just got back into the game recently and I seem to remember that one or both of these powers used to be a KB power awhile back so I wasn't sure.

Pendulum used to do knockback. Now the set is all knockdown/knockup.

Axe does quite a bit of damage and a LOT of knockdown. Like most tanker sets it has a lot of soft mitigation from the knockdowns.
