NotesEdit

• The Chaotic Whirlwind set from Asylum Sanctorium will increase the damage over time from Twin Slashes, Lacerate, and Blade Cloak when you use this ability.

Patch NotesEdit

 

1.2.3

• This ability no longer increases the damage of weapon enchantments.

 

2.3.5

• Steel Tornado: Decreased the radius of this morph to 9 meters on all Ranks from 11/11.5/12/12.5 meters on Ranks I/II/III/IV. This morph now gains slightly more damage as it ranks up.

 

2.7.5

• Adjusted the order of the Active Abilities in this skill line. They now unlock in the following order:
  • Flurry
  • Twin Slashes
  • Whirlwind
  • Blade Cloak
  • Hidden Blade

 

3.3.5

• The damage from this ability and its morphs can now be blocked, but cannot be dodged.

 

5.0.5

• Increased the base damage of this ability and morphs by 50%, but removed the execute bonus.
• Reduced the base cost to 3510 from 3780.
• Increased the radius of this ability and the Whirling Death morph to 6 meters from 5 meters.
• Steel Tornado (morph): Removed the execute bonus, but reduced the base cost to 3240 from 3510.
• Whirling Blades (morph):
  • Removed the reduced cost and Major Endurance on hit, and reintroduced the execute bonus to this morph.
  • Reduced the execute threshold for this ability to 50% from 100% in order to reduce instances where it was out performing single target "spammable" attacks.
• Developer Comment: Previously, this ability and its morph were overloaded with their execute multiplier, which stacked on top of the passive execute multiplier of the skill line. We've now brought the base line performance of this ability into the same realm of our other Direct Damage Area of Effect abilities in damage, cost, and area coverage. The morphs now allow for increased area coverage and reduced drain, or increased overall damage to targets.
