Hero Skill Trainers:

• Libeh (Command Post)

Notes

• This Sunspear skill can only be used in PvE, and is unusable by heroes.
• Whirlwind Attack triggers "on-hit" skills like Insidious Parasite, Spoil Victor, and Splinter Weapon for every successful hit you make.
• Whirlwind Attack will only trigger "on-attack" skills like Empathy, Spiteful Spirit, and Vigorous Spirit once.
• The effects of Crippling Anthem, Anthem of Flame, etc. will only affect the first target which is hit.
• If your target is moving, there is a chance this skill may miss hitting them if they are outside of adjacent range when it finishes.
• When used with a Scythe, each adjacent foe is attacked only once; in other words, the natural ability of the scythe to hit three targets is negated.

Trivia

The old skill icon

• This skill was released with a different icon, which was replaced in a later update. The rationale behind this change is unknown.
