Description: Swing at your opponent and attempt to knock them off balance. Your opponent suffers roundtime based on the degree of damage done by your blow. Your opponent may be knocked into adjacent room if you are strong enough (Strength Bonus of 15 or greater).

I was wondering if having a higher Strength Bonus increases the chances of you hurling a critter into another room?

By the way, Staggering Blow is pretty fun IMO

You swing a perfect rolaren mattock at a lesser minotaur!
AS: +450 vs DS: +259 with AvD: +41 + d100 roll: +31 = +263
... and hit for 118 points of damage!
Awesome shot collapses a lung!
The lesser minotaur is stunned!
The minotaur is picked up by the force of your blow and hurled southwest!

Pretty sure it does. But really, how often do you want to knock something you have a good chance to hit out of the room?

Someone (I think Eugenides) told me it didn't and he asked them to fix it and they wouldn't because it was a PvP thing and they didn't feel it was worth it to fix... gotta love that

It would be damn funny to knock someone out of a merchant room...

It would be great if you could use it with a small weapon that has negative damage/crit weighting. Basically, you can knock them out of the room without killing them.

Punch a dude in the chest and he goes flying out the door like an old western
