Stone Giant - wrong (German) tooltip?

Hey there,

the German tooltip of Stone Giant (Stonefist Morph) says: Slam an enemy with solid rock to deal X Physical Damage and stun them for 3 seconds. Knocked down enemies will suffer additional damage (+100% of the damage it deals normally). Also grants Minor Resolve, which increases your Armor by 1500 for 15 seconds.

So in the German tooltip Stone Giant deals additional damage when you hit a knocked down enemy. The English tooltip doesn't have this part. I tried to do this but either I was not able to knock down enemies or the German tooltip is wrong and there is no additional damage for knocked down targets.

Can somebody clarify this please?

    As far as I remember tootip is right. When your Giant knockdown enemy it deal him additional damage that equal to damage of skill, i.e. if your Giant CCed enemy it deal him double damage.

    If Stone Giant knocks down an enemy - i.e. they don't have CC immunity - it does double damage. This is on my English tooltip, wonder why it is missing from yours?

    Last time I checked it was working fine, but the damage is still not great; it's more of a utility skill for long ranged CC.

    Yeah I don't know why the tooltip seems to be bugged.

    So Stone Giant deals additional damage when it knocks down the enemy? So it can procc of itself? That's pretty strange.

    Yes, it was changed to add burst when used as a knock down but the inherent CD on knocking things down would keep you from spamming it for damage.

    Stone giant hits harder than Power lash on cc, if you aren't a dunmer. The damage is great if you build for damage and hit the cc.

    No no. It does double damage if it knock down, cc's, the enemy. If the target is already knocked down, cc'd, then it does its normal damage. That might be a translation error in the German tooltip with syntax.
