Someone was going to do it. Chose ZB over WoH because of the synergy with GoLE. Might be able to squeeze it in hybrid bar. Aznhalf 15:49, 6 February 2008 (EST)

The problem I see is that this will only work on warriors =\ TheDarkness 16:12, 6 February 2008 (EST)
 * And sins and dervs which are like 50% of the people you see in Arenas Roflcopter 16:15, 6 February 2008 (EST)
 * True but elementalist and ranger would still be as deadly. TheDarkness 16:34, 6 February 2008 (EST)
 * Elementalists? WTS SB/PS. Guardian vs Rangers. ≈Display  [[Image:Blackout.jpg|19px]] 16:28, 6 February 2008 (EST)
 * Good point =P TheDarkness 16:34, 6 February 2008 (EST)
 * I liek this. Especially since it allows both Shield Bash-esque melee protection AND GolE. [[Image:Sebsig.jpg|19px]]  Seb2net  (Talk)  16:39, 6 February 2008 (EST)
 * Yeah, this is win. ≈Display  [[Image:Blackout.jpg|19px]] 16:50, 6 February 2008 (EST)

Shield Bash. --Tab  Moo  17:25, 6 February 2008 (EST)
 * Longer recharge, not AoE--Goldenstar 17:41, 6 February 2008 (EST)
 * It also doesn't have aftercast. With this, you're unable to move for almost as long as they are. AoE doesn't matter in 4v4. In almost all cases, you're only going to have to interrupt one attack chain with it. --[[Image:Ibreaktoilets_Signature.jpg|User:Ibreaktoilets|20px]]Tab  Moo  04:57, 7 February 2008 (EST)

i just had a joygasm in RA. Punjab 18:25, 6 February 2008 (EST)

Assuming you're using whirlwind as your defense skill, 3/4s cast seems a bit too long. With all the magebane rangers as well as potential daze or migraine, I think you are better off taking a 1/4s skill or instant activation skill. I guess it'd be something fun to run in RA though. Probably won't work in TA. --Camizzle 19:20, 6 February 2008 (EST)

Must love Whirlwind <3 ~ ĐONT * TALK  02:06, 7 February 2008 (EST)

 * You've got no love from GoLE. ~ ĐONT * TALK  02:33, 7 February 2008 (EST)


 * Glyph gets no love on a ZB bar.  Mike Tycn ( punch   out )  02:56, 7 February 2008 (EST)


 * Go SoR then. ~ ĐONT * <font color="#444">TALK  03:06, 7 February 2008 (EST)


 * SoR is bad. Wts shatter. - [[Image:Unexist sig.jpg|20px]]<font color="Black">Unexist  06:05, 10 February 2008 (EST)

GOLE is great with ZB. Very wtf statement. Zuranthium 00:24, 11 February 2008 (EST)


 * You don't really need the extra energy.  Mike Tycn ( punch   out )  01:14, 11 February 2008 (EST)
 * That makes no sense to me. Extra energy is good and GOLE additionally allows you to cancel-cast and draw out interrupts. Zuranthium 03:54, 12 February 2008 (EST)
 * I actually have to agree, gole ZB on a <50% target is lol energy. --Dark0805 ( Rant /<font color=#ff11aa>Contributions ) 09:09, 12 February 2008 (EST)
 * I'd much rather have disciplined. – Ichigo 724 [[Image:Ichigo-signature.jpg]] 10:55, 12 February 2008 (EST)
 * Disciplined is fine, the two skills just serve different purposes. GOLE = better against pressure, Disciplined = better against physical spike. Zuranthium 23:31, 12 February 2008 (EST)
 * Be a man and run a boonprot. This way you're good against both pressure and spiking, purely by rof spamming! - [[Image:Unexist sig.jpg|20px]]<font color="Black">Unexist  11:27, 16 February 2008 (EST)

Aftercast
I can't test this right now but I'm pretty sure whirlwind is one of the few PBAoE spells that have a normal after cast as opposed to the 1.75.Aznhalf 18:31, 7 February 2008 (EST)

there goes the PvX democrazy again.  Seb2net  (Talk)  17:14, 10 February 2008 (EST)

It does. And still 0.75 is too long. —ǘŋ Ɛxɩsƫ  11:32, 6 March 2008 (EST)

If you're bad and you really care that much about Whirlwind, add it as a variant here: http://pvx.wikia.com/wiki/Build:Mo/any_Zealous_Benediction_Monk. I'm trying to clean stuff up, we don't need all these useless pages floating around. Zuranthium 19:51, 14 March 2008 (EDT)

Replace Whirlwind with Grasping Earth
Costs same, doesn't knockdown but it does do a 10 (@2-3 earth magic) second 50% slow and recharges in 12. - 68.229.250.165 14:32, 11 August 2008 (EDT)

Outdated tag
I don't see how this builds age makes it any less useful. You can use Whirlwind on almost any squishie in any random pvp arena. It's relatively short recharge and possibility to be defensive for other teammates makes it really shine in such bunched up pvp arenas.ComfortOsprey 15:56, 11 August 2008 (EDT)

how about magnetic aura
At 9 att, lasts 16seconds with 20% enchantment mod and has 1/4 cast time. Like whirling defense in enchantment form. Recharge sux, but hopeully by the time it ends, you've already won?--Thc 16:14, 11 August 2008 (EDT)
