Knocked back mob ability

[raidenn]

Is there something to counter this? Some of the Promy mobs have this ability, the Puks also have this ability.

Best you can do is prevent the knockback from interupting you. Which to do that is wedge yourself up against a wall, then knockback can't interupt you. Otherwise seems to only be luck if I get attacked by a knockback and it doesn't actually knock me back, luck or just that I happened to evade the attack.

Utsusemi can absorb most physical knockback weapons kills, not sure if the puk move is physical since bst dont exp on them till latter, hopefuly this helps if you can sub ninja on your job. Also you can try the Root Sabots (lvl69 foot) which has an bind enchantment and will regen you if your bound but this is probably too extreame just to avoid knockback.

Never seen Utsusemi guard against it.

Get a goblin to goblin rush you with 3 shadows and it will say "3 of your shadows absorbed the damage and disapeared" and you wont get knocked back.

I was reffering to Puk's AoE knockback not the goblin rush. My fault, not explaining enough on what I meant.

The puk will knock you back regardless. There's something kind of unnerving about watching the nin tank fly over your head and land in the bushes behind you! (we were facing up a hill at the time).

From a BST point of view though, as someone suggested, I always get my back to a wall. I have noticed that my pet spider rarely gets knocked back, and even if it does, it isn't very far - a step or two at most.
