How can i edit the "counterattack" skill?

hi guys.

i am level 24 and just unlocked the level 2 of the counterattack skill, which means i knock down human enemies with a successful counterattack according to how many adrenaline points i have. i find the chance for knock down too high. i do now know what is the chance for a knock down each adrenaline point gives me but it feels like 30% or something. i wish to change that to, maybe, 10%.

so the question is - is there a way to do that?

i only found this skill in the geralt_skill.xml file but in it i cant see a way to change the chance of a knockdown. only how much more damage i do with a counter attack, which is NOT what im looking for.

Also, if there is a way to can use the console to remove this skill from my character (i know how to ADD skill points. dont know how to remove skill i already purchased) i will be fine with that as well.

I have no information on removing skill points via console, but you could just redistribute them by purchasing a potion of clearance from a merchant.

I really wish to alter the knockdown effect that comes from counterattacks skill. they are overpowered.

changing the length of the knockdown in effects.xml only affected the AARD knockdown and not the counter kick knockdown. i could get knocked down enemies from AARD to get back on their feet instantly, but once i counter attacked someone to the ground he stayed there, resting, counting clouds, for about a second or two, which is a really long time to go and finish him instantly.

i wouldnt mind it that much that i could just knockdown any enemy with a single counterattack but the fact that im invinsible during an execution ruins it for me. i could gain 2 or 3 adrenaline points and just finish everyone in one hit.
