Whirlwind Breakpoints

[Ruvanal]

No one seems to be adressing if a cap exsists.

There is no cap per se, but there is as Hammerman indicated a 'practical' cap based on various factors of how the mechanics work.

Normally WW will move at a set speed across the screen. This plus the weapon length and target size will determine how long the target is within the range to be hit. The shorter that the interval is between the successive attack checks, the more 'hits' that can be seen on a single target. It is this type of effect that seems to be what the other are talking about for the number of hits that they are getting. This would be better referred to as the maximum hits that one can get on single target than to be referring to it as a "cap". If you want to see more hits than the "caps" that they are talking about, try Whirlwinding down the length of a large Bone Wall (preferrably while WW-locked on a fast retreating target).
