Notes
- The Whirlwind ability is a Barbarian only combat ability which allows strikes on multiple targets within the weapon's range. With sufficient skill, Whirlwind has the ability to utilize dual wielding, making one attack with each weapon on everything within range.
- It should be noted that there is a large defensive penalty associated with Whirlwind, making this maneuver dangerous to use at level. Many Barbarians feel that this move is intended to be a finishing move primarily, however when combined with our immobilizing Roar Banshee's Wail, or the stunning Roar Lash of Torment, it can be a deadly mid-sequence attack.
- Recently, the defensive penalty was reduced, and many elder Barbarians claim that it is now a viable hunting tool.
- There is also another use for Whirlwind, to remove oneself or others from webbing, such as a Ranger's Harawep's Bonds.
- When you knockdown four with Earthquake (either at a time or cumulatively over several pulses) you have 10s for an improved Whirlwind. The whirlwind is balance neutral, does increased damage, and only does 2s of RT.
- Lastly, and perhaps of most use, Whirlwind will attempt an attack on anything within range, including unseen opponents. If timed right, it can be an effective deterrent against foes with superior Hiding skill or invisibility.
