Talk:Whirlwind Attack

What the fuck? Not axe specific. God help us. Spen 19:28, 15 June 2007 (CDT) EDIT: 6 adrenaline. nvm lol Spen 19:45, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * holy s***....this + Critical Agility + Dragon Slash = sword on steroids. P A R A S I T I C 19:59, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Coudln't have said it better myself.--[[Image:Melandru's Shot.jpg|19px]]Enigma 20:20, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * CYCLONE AXE + Hundred blades. gg.--&raquo; Life Infusion &laquo;T&raquo; 20:27, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * That was my initial reaction, but it's still 6 adrenaline. Spen 20:49, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

Does this hit target foe twice and everyone else around you? 65.30.20.38 20:47, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * I'm assuming it functions the same as a Cyclone Axe. Or Triple Chop. Spen 20:49, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * But Cyclone/Triple say all adjacent, this says target AND adjacent.
 * I just tested this, it hits everything around you(including your target) once, with 5 things around me, using this skill only produced 5 damage numbers shown on the screen. --Mwpeck 00:54, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

Recharge
Too bad it has a 1 second recharge so it can't recharge itself :( - Pickletron

Omg never thought of that, like wtflolrofl fizzyile? Solus  21:17, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Just follow with cycone and by the time you hit the 1 second should be up.--Dice 23:58, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

That was clearly intentioal to stop self recharge, roflcopter ftl. --Ckal Ktak 05:51, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

Is this the only adrenal skill with a recharge? Anet is evil. DancingZombies 03:03, 18 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Evil, but smart at the same time....imagine 16 scythe mastery(for high crit chance), spamming this skill constantly with +20 dmg? That would be the warriors bread and butter farming skill. :P --Mwpeck 03:22, 18 June 2007 (CDT)

daggers/scythe
It is a melee attack, so I think it would be crazy with a scythe. --&raquo; Life Infusion &laquo;T&raquo; 21:39, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * It works with a scythe, I just tested it and you get the quick adren from hitting 3 targets, while hitting EVERYTHING around you when you use this skill. --Mwpeck 00:52, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * But how about daggers ? What kind of animation does it make ? --[[Image:aozora.png]] Aozora 14:00, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Not sure, I dont have factions so daggers arnt something I can just pickup in my storage......feel free to try it out and let us know. --Mwpeck 15:48, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Yep works with daggers, the animation is basicly cyclone axe (on a sin) so its looks pretty weird with daggers :p--Diddy Bow 16:03, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Why would anyone care if it works with a scythe? A scythe hits adjacent foes anyway.  I would rather use the scythe skills that give 30+ damage...like Reaper's Sweep that deals +42 damage with 16 in scythe mastery.  --Lord Xivor 12:51, 17 June 2007 (CDT)
 * I believe scythes have a maximum of three targets per hit, so this skill is a nice way to hit the other three idiots that are pounding on you... and it's easy to recharge this skill with the scythe's normal swings. But yeah, I can't see anything special aside from that. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 12:53, 17 June 2007 (CDT)

 * If so, I went ahead and added the dmg for maxed sunspear title. --Mwpeck 00:47, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Thx. Could you visit other sunspear skills too? --[[Image:lazyeyes.png]]Ishmaeel .ping ; .peek; 00:48, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * At max level? sure...as for the table, I didnt make it...the person who added it forgot to sign it. --Mwpeck 00:53, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Heh, that person was me, unfortunately. I forgot to sign the first one and copy/pasted the table to other skills I could unlock without signatures too.--[[Image:lazyeyes.png]]Ishmaeel .ping ; .peek; 02:34, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Added Spearmarshal level to the table. --Kale Ironfist 01:03, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * added general to the table Terminal 02:07, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Added Commander, it's +14. &mdash; Abedeus  [[Image:Sandstorm.jpg|19px]] 05:21, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

Hundred Blades obsolete now?
Doesn`t this skill make Hundred Blades obsolete?
 * Hundred blades was always obsolete. - Auron 01:36, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Well, I'd be ok if Hundred Blades went back to being a non-elite skill :p -Kumdori 03:02, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * I think I'm in love with this skill. This + Cyclone Axe means I can pretty much keep Eviserating until the cow comes home --Blue.rellik 03:20, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Works quite well with Dragon Slash... they both help to charge each other. You just need foes to bunch up on you a lot, too bad that never happens n PvE. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 05:03, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
 * I personally think it makes farming with a sword much more viable now since it's alot easier to build up adrenaline now. I so want to try this on some grawls or cave spiders --Blue.rellik 06:05, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

Ironically, Hundred Blades is a rather effective way to build up adrenaline for this skill in the first place. Sword nuking for the win? -- Jioruji Derako.> 06:32, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

Can't this skill charge itself though? Enough with Cyclone, anyway. -Silk Weaker 07:07, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

1 second recharge. Solus  07:15, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

I'm thinking the rit weapon spells with this + hundred blades will be mighty fun. Most likely crappy in the long run but certainly fun --Blue.rellik 07:49, 16 June 2007 (CDT)


 * You know what's fun? Hundred Blades, a Vampiric sword, and then go fight the IWAY warriors in Zaishen Challenge. Damage numbers across the screen. (albeit small numbers, but quantity > quality.) --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 08:23, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

lol add a rt with splinter weapon

Extra dead sword attack skill?
well? I think it would be due to the fact that it has the same stats as Triple chop and cyclone axe--Patch 17:15, 16 June 2007 (CDT)

Earth Shaker
Use with Earth Shaker? Maybe be able to chain them back and forth, throw in Crude Swing... Test? I don't got Earth Shaker. frvwfr2  (talk)(contributions) 15:22, 17 June 2007 (CDT)

Earth Shaker > Crude Swing > Whirlwind attack or for even more damage Splinter Weapon > Earth Shaker > Crude swing > Splinter weapon > Whirlwind attack. I've used a Splinter Weapon>Earth Shaker>Crude Swing combo before and it is pretty awesome. Or maybe even something like Splinter Weapon > Earth Shaker > Belly Smash > Crude Swing > Splinter Weapon > Whirlwind Attack > Yeti Smash --BeeD 22:31, 17 June 2007 (CDT)
