Twister

Whip up a twister with a flick of your Spear. The twister moves forward erratically, Blinding and repeatedly Hitting enemies within. If a twister touches a Whirlwind from your other skills, it Consumes the Whirlwind to create additional twisters that deal more damage. Passing over Elemental Ground Surfaces or Consuming an elemental Whirlwind will grant twisters extra damage of that element.

How to Use Twister Effectively

Practical tips you won't find on the tooltip

🌊

AoE Clearing

Invest in Area of Effect to cover more ground. Excellent for map clearing and handling packs efficiently.

🏹

Projectile Scaling

Extra projectiles (GMP) and Pierce/Chain/Fork dramatically multiply your clear. Choose based on mob density.

Duration Matters

Duration scaling extends effect uptime. Less recasting = more time dealing damage. Invest in skill duration passives.
