the sword isnt doing kb but it is damaging the enemy?

Enemy.Humanoid:TakeDamage(20)
					
local dir = (Enemy.HumanoidRootPart.Position - Player.HumanoidRootPart.Position).Unit
local att = Instance.new("Attachment",   Enemy.HumanoidRootPart)
local force = Instance.new("VectorForce", Enemy.HumanoidRootPart)
print(Player)
print(Enemy)
        if Player.HumanoidRootPart and Enemy.HumanoidRootPart then
        force.Attachment0 = att
        force.Force = (dir + Vector3.new(0,1,0)).Unity * 50
        force.RelativeTo = Enum.ActuatorRelativeTo.World
        Enemy.Humanoid.PlatformStand = false
        print("RAN")
end

Some old pushback test scripts … maybe this will help.
Or possibly give you a different approach at a pushback.
One is a module version placed inside the sword script.
One is a touch version placed in a part …
A task.wait() will not work in this case.

Touch 
-- SeverScript

local bv, char
local db = true
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil then
		if db then db = false char = hit.Parent
			bv = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
			bv.Parent = (char.Head)
			bv.MaxForce = Vector3.new(100000,100000,100000)
			bv.Velocity = (char.Head.CFrame.LookVector * -80)
				+ (char.Head.CFrame.UpVector * 80)
			wait(0.01) bv:Destroy()
			db = true
		end
	end
end)
Module 
-- ModuleScript

local bv, char
local db = true
local module = {}
function module.PushBack(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil then
		if db then db = false char = hit.Parent
			bv = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
			bv.Parent = (char.Head)
			bv.MaxForce = Vector3.new(100000,100000,100000)
			bv.Velocity = (char.Head.CFrame.LookVector * -80)
				+ (char.Head.CFrame.UpVector * 80)
			wait(0.01) bv:Destroy()
			db = true
		end
	end
end
return module

-- needed in the sword script ...
-- local pb = require(script.PushBack) <-- this script named PushBack inside the sword script
-- pb.PushBack(Hit)                    <-- call from the sword script

These scripts take into account the direction the hit is facing.

what is char set to, local player character or enemy character?

That would be hit.parent … so enemy. More so enemy’s character listing.
The way you’re seeing it, is as a set up as a nil for char later use in the script.
Could have been written as …

if db then db = false 
  local char = hit.Parent

i have tried this but i cant seem to ballence the kb, it feels unresponsive

local bv = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
					bv.Parent = (Enemy.HumanoidRootPart)
					bv.MaxForce = Vector3.new(1,1,1) * 100000
					bv.Velocity = (Vector3.new(Player.Character.Head.CFrame.LookVector.X, 0.45, Player.Character.Head.CFrame.LookVector.Z) * 60)
					wait(0.05) 
					bv:Destroy()

(the sword attacks fast (5 times a second) and i dont know how to adjust it to make it feel right, im going for roblox bedwars esc knockback

bv.Velocity = (char.Head.CFrame.LookVector * -80) +(char.Head.CFrame.UpVector * 80)
The 80’s should be the same. -60,60 -40,40 and you can lower the 100000 a bit.
Will have to play with the numbers to find your sweet spot.

100000 overall power, -80 distance back, 80 distance up
Keep the last two numbers the same for a smooth arc. As in -80,80 -60,60 -40,40

This could be any part also, not just the head. (any facing part)

I’ve never used this for a weapon …
I just know it will figure the angle by the angle of the player that hit it.

If you tired the touch version on a block. You can see it don’t matter what angle they touch it from.
It will always push back at the right angle to be a push-back.
