The minimum will be 4 too, if they follow the set up of the Halloween Trial - no NPC fillers.

The conversion (Knockback to Knockdown) happens 100% of the time; if the power you slot this in does not have Knockback in it then it adds a proc to do Knockdown.

If this is the only way to get these enhancements than the prices might shoot up on the market once the event is over. Which wouldnt be a bad thing at all granted you used common sense and prepared for such a thing. |

I would pay cash money to have it be universal period, so I can slot the no-knockback proc into Hurricane.

I wish this set didn't exist at all. If I'm EVER asked to have this set one any of my characters by someone who thinks knockback is the devil, I'm giving serious consideration to cancelling right then and there.
This is a mistake and will only cause more social friction in the game.

What does it do with pet/minion summoning powers? Does it add chance for knockdown to every one of their attacks?

I think the first thing I'm slotting it in is Wormhole. Then I'm going to take Shockwave on my Claws Scrapper. Then I'm respeccing back into Energy Torrent or Explosive Blast (haven't decided which) on my Energy/Energy Blaster.
Oh my god. Hand Clap. I'm going to start taking Hand Clap again.

If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Only a shame that the set is 47+. Especially for an event that's designed from 15 to 50 >>

Right, there were 2 other options. But if its just something like reward merits or a super inspiration, then you'll still grab the enhancement, but just to sell or save.
