What is this?

Are you referring to when you actually execute a FD?
or when you are trying to get up again?

there is no mechanic that allows FD to be a success against one mob but fail against another. FD either fails (falls to the ground message) or it succeeds (no message).
this is the same regardless of monk, necro or SK.

If you're trying to get up again though, there are more factors involved around clearing agro.
but OP was just referring to getting a successful FD off, and the only thing that will break a successful FD is a spell landing on you.


however:

This is also something I've noticed.
FDing whilst autoattacking seems to cause problems, but i think that's more of a bug than anything to do with FD mechanics.

When you are trying to get up. As you said when you FD it works or it says you fell to the ground. like said before if it works and a mob was casting a spell it will still cause you to fail if you get casted upon.
