==Knockback Boss ModifierElite Affix==

[[Knockback]] is a [[Boss Modifier]] available to Champions and Bosses, as well as their minions. During testing development it was caused just a short stumble back hit, but upon release Knockback became a very powerful hit that would hurl a character or pet back nearly to the edge of the screen, a good 30 or 40 [[yards]] in the game's scale of distance.

In addition to the movement, knockback causes a short disorienting debuff to hit targets, which slows their movement (but not attack speed) for a second or so after the strike.

This property is amusing early onin the game, when a Witch Doctor small Elites with limited damage can watch his [[Mongrels]] get repeatedly launched send characters or pets flying across the entire screen by some tiny boss with this a successful hit. The property. It can also actually be somewhat helpful to ranged attackers, as the boss will impact may knock them so far back that it's almost as if they used some sort out of movement skill themselvesrange, giving them space to shoot safely. It's more dangerous in dungeons and tight areas where the knockback doesn't actually create a safe space between the character and monsters, and players are slowed and vulnerable to damaging Elite Affixes for a second.
