How can I protect myself against knockback?

I'm currently in the middle of Act III with my monk and spend a lot of my time not hitting the enemy because I'm too busy being knocked into the air by my enemies. They seem to have a very high chance to cause the knockback effect any time they hit me, which is pretty annoying.

What factors affect the knockback chance, and how can I reduce the chance that I get knocked back?


Solution 1:

Sadly, I think the only effective way to protect yourself from knock-back right now is to increase your dodge %, since dodging attacks that knock you back will keep you from getting knocked back.

It's noteworthy that blocking an attack with a shield won't keep you from getting used as a pinball.
