Knockdown

Knockdown is a critical effect with the following characteristics:
 * Temporary Knockdown, i.e. knocking an opponent (or an opponent knocking Geralt) to the ground.
 * When an enemy is knocked down, it prevents them from launching their next attack as quickly.
 * Opponents can kill Geralt with one hit (a finishing blow), making this effect especially dangerous in combat against large, powerful beasts.

Enemies who have less than 33% of their vitality left may be stunned and/or knocked down by any short weapon attack.
