Notes[edit]

  • Fiery Whirl will try to hit 4 times on its path, inflicting cripple on every hit.
    • A stationary enemy on its path will be hit 2-4 times depending on their size and distance from the starting point. Starting in melee range (130 units), player characters and smaller enemies will be hit 2-3 times, while bigger creatures will be hit all 4 times. The size of a creature usually matches their selection circle.
    • Used against an obstacle in an angle that prevents advance or while immobilized will allow you to deliver all 4 hits to enemies in range.
Tooltip damage displays ~5.8% higher than actual damage dealt.
