Effect
Blowdown is one of the side-effects of certain skills or bullets. Unlike a status effect, the enemy does not gain a certain status, but undergoes a physical action, which may impede it's ability to strike back at you. The effect is also known as knockdown or wipeout.
Properties
The sort of physical impediment the enemy undergoes depends on the enemy itself. But usually the same category of enemies undergoes nigh-on the same side-effect. It also sometimes depends on where you hit the enemy (from behind, the side, or the front), as to how effective the side-effect is.
- Small enemies: These will 'trip up', and fall on the floor.
- Medium enemies: These will fall flat-out on their back or belly.
- Large enemies: The effects vary. Most common are flinching, tripping and falling over
Combinations of side-effects
When an enemy is blown down, it can not be launched, until it has gotten back on it's feet. It can, however, undergo blowaway.
