Impactful Throws + Deft Hands?

I’ve never messed with Impactful Throws before, but I’m wondering how well it could work in conjunction with Deft Hands on an Assassin build: knock an enemy down, get a critical strike and 3 seconds off all of your cooldowns.

Any tips on Impactful Throw builds? And has anyone tested one in conjunction with Deft Hands?

i don't believe the knockdown attack counts as a critical strike/assassination, and even if it did you would have to run super mid wind katana which only works on non-oni enemies which die very quickly anyways; overall on higher difficulties i wouldn't bother but I would love to see someone try it.

I’ve tested it and can confirm that the impactful throws ‘square’ prompt attack DOES count towards the Deft Hands ghost weapon cooldowns. Could be some interesting possibilities there. I don’t think it’ll be anything earth shattering, but it’s always nice to have new options/ways to play, especially on Assassins.
