Heey. It has definitely been a while. '-'

After pouncing and spiraling around the place, I came by to drop off my newly updated guide. Enjoy.

I don't play Windwalker, but I just wanted to say that your guide is very cute and aesthetic!

[NanamiMuffy]

Thanks! That was part of the plan.

Hi, can you share any video of your runs?

I am curious on how you utilize Spiral Kick and Spiral Kick Awakening.

Thank you in advance.

[NanamiMuffy]

Oh, I wish I had some gameplay videos on archive. Maybe I can prepare a demo in the near future.

Spiral Kick as damage:
I mainly use the aerial version followed by its flip kick. It seems fairly consistent for me.
The sweet spot is to start around 1~2 tumble distance away. Being too close may clip and miss.

Spiral Kick Awakening.
The Swift Attack version is pretty good. Good setup for Spiral which in turn grants mobility.
Sometimes I use the Blooming version to mix it up. It does slightly more damage than the normal way.
I don't really use the Cyclone version all that much. It might be okay for dodging with the first Spiral.

I'm glad to meet a fellow Windwalker player, I haven't seen many since I joined DN.

I'm wondering if you have noticed there is a bug with Rising Storm's damage, which I have posted a thread under the bug reporting category:

I would like to know your thoughts. Thanks.

Yes, Windies sure are as fancy as can be.

There were many good changes in this September patch.
+ Revisions for Awakened passives.
+ Super Air Pounce proc.
+ Improvements to Air Current farming.
+ Improved bonus modifier for AC Rising Storm and AC Swift Attack.
+ Bonus modifier for EX skills got improved too.
+ Better mechanics for Spiral Kick.
- Willow Kick buff potency got toned down slightly.
+ Falling Star got improved.

For now, I have put up links to the patch notes and my spreadsheet calculations. I will work to update the guide soon.
EDIT: Okay, guide is updated.
