* [[World of Warcraft]] featured knockbacks by various NPC mobs and bosses from when the game was first released, but players didn't get access to them until Patch 3.0, the ''Wrath of the Lich King'' expansion, when a small handful of abilities were given to various classes that would knock NPCs or other players back. [[The AI Is a Cheating Bastard|NPCs don't take falling damage and can run up some sheer cliffs]] so [[Knockback]] abilities are generally underpowered against them, but in certain limited circumstances [[Knockback]] effects can be very, very powerful in [[
** Humorously, they can get so annoying in dungeons (they disrupt positioning and can knock enemies into reinforcements) that several classes have the ability to turn off the knockback aspect of the spell through the use of a glyph (Mages, Druids, and Shaman, for those who care.)
** The flinching ability is available from the start however, in the form of various stuns as well as interrupts.
