Knockdown not working?

[voodoogroves]

Was doing the Carnival chain w/ another guy today and while I was on a bard and forgot my Protection from Evil Clickies, we had a good laugh at me being on my backside a lot.

The big giant in Partcrashers knocked me on my can too.

And, then it knocked him on his can.

What exactly does the knockdown-immunity work on?

[Krelar]

Protection from evil doesn't provide knockdown immunity.

Protection from evil doesn't provide knockdown immunity.

I was being commanded. You mighta had to be there for the joke part.

Still, he was knocked down by the giant is the actual point. He thought (and I) they were supposed to be immune?

Riiiiight, noone knows when this spell works or doesn't work.

But you can be certain that silver flame legacy buff from ship providing protection from evil does not work.
Protection from Evil potions have been rumored to not work.
Protection from Evil clickies have been rumored to not work.
Protection from Evil items (that provide constant protection) do not work.
Circle of Protection from Evil sometimes works, sometimes not.

This spell has been bugged for god knows how long.
My clerics and paladins throw this buff around anyway in case it prevents something.

Many of these have been screwed for a long time..
The other thing to keep in mind is was the caster mob "evil". Protection from evil is limited...

I'm not sure about every instance of being knockdown, but the immunity does work versus being physically knocked down by mobs such as giants and dragons. I tend to get pushed back vs. knocked down. Spells that tend to cause knockdown effect also seem situational. The ice spells don't work on me, nor do earthquake like affects. I haven't been commanded so I can't say. Environmental effects will cause knockdown as in the quest "What Goes Up". Explosion effects do not bypass the knockdown immunity ad in the quest "The Tracker's Trap".

The OP is particularly interested in command, not knockdown. Seems like "knockdown" was an inside joke with his friend when they were running a quest.

He did ask this question, "What exactly does the knockdown-immunity work on?".

My understanding was that "command" was the inside joke

It was a bit of both, but frankly I think people are distracted by the story and not the ultimate question - what does Warlock KD immunity prevent?

Larger version of the story

Was 2-manning EE Carnival Chain. I was probably 21, off destiny leveling something different and the other guy was probably 24 in a decent destiny mix. Anyway, we get to the end of Snitch and I say "hm, I doubt I have my SF bracers, I bet this guy puts me on my can". We had a chat about that and, sure enough, on my can I go. I didn't hit the bank, so we had a good laugh anytime I failed a save vs. greater command. He was on a pal-splash build w/ great saves, so he didn't worry about it as much - but also as a warlock he commented that he's got KD immunity to.

We get to Partycrashers and the giant knocks me down. We laugh ... and then the giant knocks HIM down. I cackle loudly, he swears and we go one about finishing the quest while wondering what warlock does and does not provide KD immunity to.

So, is there any idea of what the warlock's KD immunity works on or not?

[Pnumbra]

I would think that anything that causes the "trip conditions" ignores the Warlock's KD immunity.
