Help please

[Shockwire]

So i downloaded SF & SF Ea
But the problem is i cannot Gain access to the skill knock down... Which does not make any sense i got a lvl 38 zerker, even made a lvl 45 based free spec to see if i could get the Skill. But i Still cant.
Any ideas?

You mean you cannot put points into it? or the skill is unusable?

The skill is at the end of the zerker tree, so any skill lower than it will need a point in it. Also, for skills in a tree, you can only put as many points into the skill as the skill before it has.

Zerker stance also needs to be active for knockdown to be usable. If you are familiar with WoW warriors, zerker and def stances in SF work the same way as they do. You can switch between them in an instant, and skills in that tree require that stance to be active. If you only have zerker and no def stance, make sure its active and leave it on, in other words make sure zerker is lit up on your left click bar and leave it as your left click. If you start getting owned you can swap back to the 'melee' button because you cannot parry in zerker(if you have no points in def stance which imo is needed for harder difficulties). I hope this helps, I had to think of it in WoW terms myself as 'stances' melee active = battle stance, zerker active=berserker stance, defenisive active = defensive stance. I even mapped zerker to my left-mousewheel tilt and defensive to my right-mousewheel tilt (bound as 1 and 2 in my mouse program) so it was super fast to switch between the two.

Edit: I just seen your post in the other forum. Installing EA over SF1.17 is baaaad news and is most likely your problem. Reinstall SF and do not patch it, then install EA, you do not need any patches. Make a backup copy of your saved folder before uninstalling.

Im aware of what i needed to get the Skill, i just didnt know the game was so buggy, it was cause my skill tree was all the wayto the left side of the screen, which made each skill on the bottom left unable to click.
As for the 2nd thing i nly have version 1.50 alteast thats what it says in main menu.
