*Consequently, area within radius in which a target can be attacked varies depending on [[range adder]] and target [[size]]:

*While moving to target, periodically attacks target(s) within [[D2 Melee|range]] of weapon(s). Best used by not selecting  specific target(s) but targeting point beyond so that attacks are made as user moves there. Selecting a target within range will only result in single attack.
+
*While range adder 4 weapon can always attack any target within radius, since vast majority of targets are size 2-3 this is normally true for range adder 3 as well, and range adder 2 (maximum for one-handed weapon) attacking size 3 (against size 2, ~85% of area within radius can still be attacked when occupied).
*Hit checks are always performed in the fourth and eighth frames of the whirlwind animation. Beyond that, hit check frequency is determined solely by Weapon Speed Modifier and weapon Increased Attack Speed: all other attack rate modifiers do not affect hit check frequency. {{D2 Magic bold|=EIAS}} = weapon IAS - WSM
