Anyone remember where you get this? Getting tired of being butt-rammed by the Islandmaster in the last fight in hard mode so as per a suggestion I'm gonna use it to cheese him instead.

It's in the house of braids.

I only know this 'cause I got it not two hours ago.

[jackman22040]

Thanks guy. Hold it for the end--you may use it also.

Well seems this knockback may no longer work on this boss or even the Trickster. Did they nerf this at some point?

[Austellus]

(I've already beaten the game, this is a second playthrough)

I've had it fail to knock back common enemies as well. Possibly it's just a chance to inflict knockback?

You'll need to solve the puzzle for the house of braids (in the hamlet of stormbreach) to get it. It's a bit difficult to explain, but all the tiles in front next and behind you will open/close, but not the ones diagonally of you. If you need the path to walk, you can find it here: http://legendofgrimrock.com/?id=133&site=2#40
There's a path to walk written, but it's also drawn on the map which is a bit easier.

Thanks anyway but I had actually found it before I had even asked the question. I had stored it somewhere for better gear and couldn't remember where and still can't. I ended up using the spawn cheat to get it back only to be disappointed with it's special attack in the last Boss fight. Back to the drawing board.

Have you tiried loading up your heavy user with rage, shield, and speed pots, and a few energy pots and give him the scythe? A couple crits from the power attack makes very short work of him.

[jackman22040]

The Scythe no the rest yes. It's difficult to time the pots usage with his allies zipping around so that you know when to hit him. Can be done your way I'm sure but as I've indicated in another post I found another way.
