Wind Blast

Description

A skill that lets loose a blast of wind from the Cylinder using Wind Crystals. It does little damage but can knock down opponents from far away. The closer the opponent is, the greater the impact. Damage increases with higher Stamina. (Material: 1 Wind Crystal)

Details

Wind Blast on a Raccoon.

• Fires a burst of wind to launch a target a large distance and deal minor damage.
• Damage is increased by Wind Blast Damage reforges.
• Requires a Wind Crystal.
• Always knocks the target back, even if they have Defense activated.
  • Wind Blast will not knock the player down if they are using Final Hit.
  • Wind Blast will not always knock targets back if they are already knocked down.
  • Wind Blast will not knock down when using an inefficient cylinder and the target is not within Gale range.
• Using a Wind Cylinder or a Hurricane Cylinder will increase the knockback distance and damage of Wind Blast.
• At close range, Wind Blast has a 'Gale' effect which greatly increases the distance the enemy is launched.
  • Rank 5 and onwards allows Gale to occur from a further distance.
  • Gale still occurs when using a non-Wind Cylinder.
  • The "Blast Away" requirements refer to the Gale effect.
• Knockback Distance can be increased by a Wind Cylinder or Hurricane Cylinder, as well as Alchemy Mastery, and Wind Alchemy.
  • The formula is Knockback Distance * [1 + 1.5*(Alchemy Mastery Bonus + Wind Alchemy Bonus)]
  • Knockback distance is increased by Wind Blast Range reforge on shoes.
• 25% of the user's remaining Stamina adds onto Wind Blast's base damage.
  • For example, if the user has 100 remaining Stamina, an additional 25 damage is added to Wind Blast's base damage.
  • This only adds bonus damage up to 2500 Stamina, or 625 additional base damage.
• Wind Blast may be loaded while knocked down.
• Evasion can be used to avoid Wind Blast.
• Wind Blast is a Lightning Elemental and as such, the effects are shunted by Lightning Shield.
• Prerequisite for learning the Flame Burst skill (at rank D).

Obtaining the Skill

Training Method

• Their Method is useful for training the Knock Back requirements. Zombies move very slowly and almost always gets knocked back by Wind Blast.
• You may want to make a party and set the finishing rule to "Anyone in the Party" to help train the "Blast Away an enemy" requirements. Make sure that you stand near the enemy before using Wind Blast.
