Whirlwind fills your Special slot. Melee special ability of the physical school. Base damage 33. Cast 8 ticks, cooldown 100 ticks. Reach 5.6, arc 360°, up to 8 targets.
You get it by equipping 15 bases across 6 lines: Atlas Zweihander, Bedrock Zweihander, Leviathan Zweihander, Pyreking Zweihander and Ruin Zweihander and 1 more.
The draft can bend it 7 ways — Echo, Reach, Multiplicity, Area, Force, Duration and Critical — and cards that ask for melee, area, critical, on_hit and repeat will find it.
Between rooms it can be offered 147 cards: 38 written for it specifically, plus the 109 that any ability can take. Those cards can put Chill, Burn and Crumble on it, and attune it to Frost, Fire and Stone.
8 Uniques are built on gear that hands it to you: Gavelfall, The Patient Mountain, The Pyre King's Edge, The Mountain Sire's Spine, The Headsman's Hour, Three Tolls, The Carousel and The Millstone.
