I'm a warlock I don't know what it said at the hunter, but it definately said I successfully cast it on myself. So I should get knocked down but I kept running.

Choose wisely who to knock down, this is the most powerful effect, fortunately it doesn't work equally on all. The good thing is, it saves YOUR ass too. A lot. When you get terrored at war too...

So this is NOT a bug. The spell wasn't resisted, but the KD was.

Knockdown is the ONLY EFFECT of ambush.

Sheesh.

So what? You should learn how this game works before "sheeshing" at me... There are two layers of resistance for some *effects*. That Ambush would give you 500dmg or not changes nothing. This is exactly the same behaviour as Will Domain. This is how the game is designed. Your preferred spells, namely Son of the Wind & Spell Eludes, act on the first layer; a lot of classes have spells or passives which work on the second layer: preventing Knock Down: the stat Constitution, Mind Blank [Conjurers], Unstoppable Madness [Barbarians], Defensive stance [Warriors], Run over [Knights], Mirage [Conjurers].

Now isn't it fair that they resist the KD, even if they didn't resist the power?

What he meant was, for knock down to take effect it has to go through 2 layers. The first is spell resistance, the second is against constitution. Not that Ambush has 2 effects.
