Tumble

[Brother_Solar]

Not very long ago, in a forum not too far away, one gentleman claimed that having a high Tumble skill would prevent Air Elementals from knocking you down (so you wouldn't be on your back, but you would still be knocked backwards some distance).

Is this true?

I know that Balance will help players get off the floor more quickly after being knocked down, but does Tumble prevent it altogether?

The knowledge would be relevant to my upcoming reincarnation. If the Tumble skill is worthy of more than the standard single skill point, I now have the opportunity to adjust my build accordingly.

Thank you very much.

high STR helps, otherwise the only thing to make you completely immune is the thief acrobat line, or the reaver charge
