Mechanics

Whirlslash does 1 / 1 / 2 / 5 spins which damage enemies around the player. The spins are executed faster with higher ASPD.

During Gold Charge, players are able to move at their normal movement speed. With higher ASPD, the movement speed will also be increased, but the maximal movement distance during Whirlslash will remain the same.

Damage

Whirlslash uses the following stats:

Base Damage = ATK + 2 * Spell Level

Base Damage Modifier = Charge Modifier * Weapon Modifier (125%) * (1 + 0.02 * (Spell Level - 1))

Charge Modifiers:

• Base: 135%
• Bronze: 209.25%
• Silver: 120%
• Gold: 65%

For Silver and Gold Charge, the current Damage Modifier increases with more spins:

• Silver Charge: the second spin's Damage Modifier is multiplied by 1.5
• Gold Charge: second through fifth spin's Damage Modifier have a flat 0.05 (results 5% of Base Damage) added to them. The fifth spin also doubles its Damage Modifier after the addition

For a single spin, the damage is calculated as:

Spin Damage = Base Damage * Current Damage Modifier

Breaking Power

Base and Bronze Whirlslash have a Breaking Power of 1. Silver and Gold have a Breaking Power of 2, while their final hits (the second and the fifth) have a BP of 4.

While this isn't enough to interrupt some enemies such as Elite Boars, it might still be useful against weaker enemies. Alternatively, you can cast Whirlslash from a Perfect Guard to increase the Breaking Power of all of its hits to 9.
