[edit] Notes
- Consider using with Steady Stance or Balanced Stance to bypass the knock down penalty.
- This skill will only knock you down if it hits.
- Contrary to Grapple, Stonefist Insignia does not prolong the time you are knocked down.
- If this attack hits multiple targets by using a scythe, the conditions are applied separately. You are also knocked down separately for each hit, which matters if preventing knockdowns.
[edit] Trivia
- This skill has an icon very similar to Backfire.
