Massive Knockback? How?

Fighting people in BGs I’ve come across a few people who used some sort of knock back. It knocked me back at least 100yrds. Does anyone know what this is? As and Engineer I can’t make anything.

There’s a few. Probably Blast Wave from a Mage, though?

Dracthyr wing buffet, Mage Blast wave, hunter explosive trap…just to name a few.

100 yrds?! Isn’t that too much even for a Shaman’s Thunderstorm? Maybe is one of those new pvp consumables?

It was done by a druid and a priest.

Idk then… Priest lost their knockback a while ago, and Druids have Typhoon, but the kb for that one is pretty small.

It was much farther than that.

Prob a toy or engineering thing. Typhoon is the lowest distance knockback ( u can barely knock people away in the middle of bgs.)

it’s an item it costs 500 honor… sold by

i mean…ive seen people have a levitate affect on them and get knock backed farther, because it doesnt allow the in game gravity to affect the fall. so you just glide.

Otherwise idk

Thank you!

have fun… those things are really annoying to deal with if you don’t have slowfalls or gliders (I don’t) :dracthyr_hehe_animated:

Explains a lot. I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how I was being blasted so far seemingly at random. I thought I was up to date on PvP traits and figured I missed something with someone’s knockback being buffed—or that people were using a new exploit.

I am gonna to have a blast using them.

It’s not… it’s just items that for some reason people CAN use on random bgs or epic bgs. You see them on a very few but obviously people that is on top of things… I suspect this will increase the usage of them :dracthyr_shrug:

Now that you mentioned this, I wonder if Mage’s Gravity Lapse can be chained to a knockback for a more dramatic effect.

What’s that do?
