In a whirlwind of steel you attack enemies within 8 yards, causing weapon damage from both melee weapons to each enemy.

How it works

Each cast of Whirlwind costs 25 Rage. Casting it triggers a 1.5 sec global cooldown.

Whirlwind is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is effect type 121, which the datamine does not name. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 8 yards.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Whirlwind.

What it does

Whirlwind is a spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and a 10 sec cooldown. It also casts Whirlwind (record #44949).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the Wrath of the Lich King client, build 3.80.2.69874. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
