Damage Calculation

The damage dealt with Knuckle Arrow is based on ATK. A target hit by Knuckle Arrow will be knocked back few cells depend on what skill level used; if a map obstruction prevents the target from moving back as required, extra damage is done. Due to the circumstances of War of Emperium, the user will not be moved to the target's position and the Knockback extra damage is always applied.

Applications

Due to being a single-target skill, and highly based on positioning, Knuckle Arrow is less favorable in PvM scenarios. Comparable damage can be done using Lightning Ride, which also has area of effect properties.

PVP builds may consider Knuckle Arrow for dealing moderate damage and knocking back players. However, Hell Gate deals more damage. WoE builds can benefit from the readily available extra damage, allowing Knuckle Arrow to deal high damage over time. Due to having no cast time and the possibility of using Magic Strings to reduce the delay, Knuckle Arrow can be cast rapidly from a long distance.

Notes

• Damage appears as two separate numbers for each hit in pvp 1 if not hit against a wall 2 sets if they are hit against a wall in pvm it does not show full damage from additional bonus damage regardless if you hit them against a wall.
• Boss flagged monsters, being immune to knockback, take full damage from KA, Boss dont show the full damage from the hit either this was tested in Against Kasa which are boss tagged
• Bonus part (%):(1000 x Target’s current weight / Maximum weight) + (Target’s Base Level x 5) x (Caster’s Base Level / 150)
