Overview
Whirlwind is the main AoE skill of the Destroyer (Berserker after the 3rd class transfer). Your character whirls a two-handed weapon and deals damage to every enemy around you. It is the key tool for AoE mob farming and one of the most effective AoE skills among melee DD classes.
Stats
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Mana cost | 60 MP |
| Cast time | Instant |
| Radius | ~200 units around you |
| Damage | Scales with P.Atk and skill level |
| Requirement | Two-handed weapon (sword, spear or blunt) |
| Cooldown | ~8 seconds |
Whirlwind is available from early levels and scales up to max, which significantly increases its damage. Because it requires a two-handed weapon, it shapes the entire Destroyer gear setup around AoE farming.
Usage
In PvE, Whirlwind is the foundation of Destroyer AoE farming. The routine: gather a mob train, stand in the center, and spam Whirlwind. Combined with Frenzy and Zealot, the damage becomes enormous, letting you clear a full train in seconds. In PvP, Whirlwind shines in mass fights, hitting several enemies at once.
Tips
For maximum AoE farming output, run the combo Frenzy + Zealot + Whirlwind. Pull a train of 5–10 mobs for the best risk-to-reward ratio. Always keep a healer in your party or a stock of potions — at low HP (required for Frenzy) every mob hit can be lethal. During castle sieges, Whirlwind helps clear enemy clusters trapped in narrow castle corridors.
