Either give DK at least 1 working knockdown skill or make class immune to knockdown. Permanently knockdowned by everyone else while can't KD anyone, no protection no CC class. why  you hate DK so much?

We actually have 2 knockdown, maybe more but definitely less then 4.

kama slash is FG and has KD as cc.

and awak skill Flow: Spirit Blaze which is KD as well but applies KD on second hit and is slow af and is long animation.

• Stiffness: Duration 1.5 sec.
• Stun: Duration 3 sec.
• Knockdown: Duration 4 sec.
• Bound: Duration 2 sec.
• Floating: Duration 3 sec.
• Freezing: Character is put into an ice cube and unable to move or perform any actions for the duration of the Freeze. Frozen enemies take reduced damage. Once the freeze ends the character is put into a Bound CC
• Knockback: Duration 2 sec.

and yes PA ligit hates DK. i am 100% convinced after they gave us new trash awakening skill called whatever "nebula"...

 I like it very much. But I like DK in general. Great mobility, ok dmg, nice CCs... I can live with no defence at all. Could have some skills with faster animation. Could have some working heal... But in general I like her a lot. But I might be delusional ;)

Sucession Dk (1v1,small scale): need grab

Awak Dk (1v1, small scale, large scale): need more SA/FG (maybe range)

Lahn awak without grab = dark knight succ =trash

my thought.

Well with more range and/or damage awak would be viable that's true.

Problem with the new skill is, that it ain't really adress any issue. It have slow cast time, like every other DK ability, it gives FG, like every other awa ability with protection, it have short range and low area, and not so high damage either.

It's nice since we had low amount of skills, but it ain't really change much at the end of the day.
