How does Windfury work?

Recommended Posts

Is it PPM or just flat 20% chance with no ICD?

 

I just got my first super slow weapon (3.8 speed) and it's...really horrible. Kill speed has gone down quite a bit, from ~20 seconds to ~30 seconds, on average.

I've read its flat 20% and that you don't want slow speed 2H because unlike Warrior you don't have instant melee attacks (Mortal Strike) that make a difference. Since WF is a proc, it doesn't give a shit about the speed of your weapon.

 

However... I've also heard the exact opposite hahaha. So who the hell knows.

Of course every weapon does benefit form the windfury proc but regarding pvp for example you want a slow 2hd weapon because it has higher max dmg. Your burst damage is much higher then.

In every case windfury is not a reliable source of damage compared to flametongue but it can kill clothies instantly.

For leveling i would always prefer a fast mainhand dagger with flametongue and a shield.

For windfury, look for a 2h weapon in the middle speed range.  3.8 speed provides higher overall damage but since you will be swinging less, you will get less wf procs.  A weapon from 2.8 to 3.2 is what you should be aiming for.

Really? i found using windfury with a dagger to be better than flametounge for leveling.

People use Flametongue because it's consistent, instead of random like Windfury.
