The knockdown effect always bothered me - especially with weapons firing slower projectiles… Well, I replaced it with a damage bonus. Started with 5%, but thought that 15% might be more appropriate. Hope it's useful for someone else.
The knockdown effect was such a horrible idea, it really is the worst perk in the game (yes, even worse than the hiding while submerged perk). Baffles me that it was approved and put into the game.
The fix was to alter the first rank of Sniper to only apply the 50% AP drain reduction when the second rank is not obtained yet. Also created a fomod installer while I was at it, please let me know if it works
Honestly I'd rather just have the holding your breath while looking down the scope just take no AP anymore but yeah the knockdown really bothered me especially with the really spongy enemies since I'd knock them down then just have to sit there for 10 seconds to wait for them to get back up only to do it a again 2 or 3 shots later.

Have fun!
Thank you for this.
Test with a .50 sniper and a non automatic assault rifle
