Notes

  • The "can inflict Prone" description really means what it says: there is a separate Fortitude roll being done after every weapon crit. So even if the weapon itself does a crit, it can still "miss" with its additional Prone effect. However, the additional effect can also graze or crit, which will then affect its duration (1.5 sec or 4.5 sec, respectively).[1]
  • The final length of the Overbearing effect is affected by attacker's Intellect.
