Second part.
If you slot it into a power that doesn't do knockback/up/down, it will give that power a 20% chance to do knockdown.
If you slot it into a power that does knockback/up/down, it will give that power a (separate) 20% chance to do knockdown, and reduce any knock already in the power by 99%.

Thanks. That kind of makes the enhancenment a little less sweet. While the majority of the time on teams I don't want my Explosive Arrow creating KB...when I solo it can be helpful against bosses.
Thanks

1) Pretty sure it's an Attuned set, meaning it is whatever level you are. The screenie was probably taken by a level 50 character. |

2) They are one of the rewards at the end of the event. As far as I'm aware, you can only earn one every 20 hours with a given character. But you can email them to your other characters. When you complete the event, you are given a reward table, and one of the 6 enhancements is a guaranteed reward. (which one it is will be random)

1. They are currently bugged and are not properly attuning. They drop at the level of the character claiming them (and thus can be slotted down to -3 of that level), and stay there, even when sent to lower characters.

Just so I am reading this right, does it mean that any of the 11 IO's I got by completing the event on my lvl 50 alts can at present not be used by my lvl 21 Grav troller? |

"Propel" I am looking at you for the KB IO!Have we seen anything about a hotfix?
Maybe for this live publish in progress as I type this?

They still work like any other IO in that you can be above the level and it will still work, the only part that is bugged is the part that makes it match your current level.

When he said 11, he meant that's how many he got, not they were level 11. He got them on his level 50s.

Who thought THAT up, and why? Does someone somewhere want the Market and Inventions forum to return to pages upon pages of "Looking To Sell/Buy..." posts? Is this WAI or some sort of bug? (If there's another thread on this topic, please point me in that direction!)

Since I can't find todays patch note yet, and assume that they just aren't up yet....
Does anyone know what was on todays publish?
Is it the attuning bug on these UEs? Is it the teleporting bug inside of the Summer Event mish? Is it the auction house being updated to allow folks to sell/trade the new UEs? Or is it something else entirely?
And, on a different topic (and overused refrain)..
Why is it not possible to through up the patch notes somewhere (anywhere) as the publish is is happening, while the servers are still down?

As I understand it... They are supposed to be able to be bought/sold/traded via the Auction House. But the problem lies in the fact teh Auction House structure doesn't have a category to which a Universal Damage Enhancement falls, unless you want them not very intuitively lumped into the 'Special Enhancements' category, which is all Hamis, Synth Hamis and HydraOs. So the auction house needs a tweak for you to be able to sell them. With any luck, today's publish is taking care of that (and other) issues.|

And, for the record, I've seen this issue come up here and there in other threads, but as far as I know, there is no thread entirely dedicated to the OverForce/AH issue itself. Probably because it's been presumed that it's a bug that will very soon be remedied.

But, all the subcategories under attuned are AT specific as the only trade-able (sellable) attuned Enhancements previously were the ATEs. Clearly, this Universal Damage Enhancement doesn't belong under Scrappers (or Blasters, etc, etc) so as I said, the Auction House needs modification to allow it to be placed somewhere. The only place they *could* have been dropped without having to add a category would have been special. Yes, most ideally, a new subcategory under attuned is where they should go.
Sorry if I was unclear. I didn't mean to say I expected them to ultimately end up with the HamiOs.

So, what you described is more the first part (the poewr's original KD chance is still there, it's just the KD mag is lowered to non-KB levels.

No, the second part specifically says "remove the KD and add another chance at KB" (paraphrase). Which is what I confirmed.

Finnaly got it on run 16 tonight
it works perfectly in power thrust(didnt want to respec or anything os i put it in there for now)
Awesome! Gratz!
Everyone that's got their hands on one has been quite happy so far, from what I've heard.
Think I did about 8 or 10 runs before I got one this morning.
Best part about that was we got all 10 badges on a random PuG and on one of my badgers, and then I got the KD IO to top it off. ^_^
my lil RWZ Challenge vid
Are these selling privately?
Whats the going rate if i were too buy one?
Question on the enhancement. Does this power just make your power that had KB act the same as normal just instead of KB it does KD? Or does it remove the KB part of the power and then there is a seperate 20% chance for KD?
