Tornado Shot skill screenshot

Tornado Shot is a bow attack skill which fires a piercing shot that releases projectiles in all directions when it reaches the targeted location. The secondary projectiles fade over time.

Skill functions and interactions[ | ]

  • Secondary projectiles: Upon reaching the targeted location, Tornado Shot's projectile releases three secondary arrows in random directions. No target can be hit by more than one secondary arrow from a single explosion.
  • Multiple projectiles: When Tornado Shot fires additional projectiles, such as when supported by Lesser Multiple Projectiles Support inventory iconLesser Multiple Projectiles SupportLesser Multiple Projectiles SupportSupport, Projectile

    , the arrows are fired side by side, each exploding and releasing three arrows. Enemies can be hit by secondary arrows released by different primary arrows. This makes Tornado Shot with additional projectiles particularly effective against single targets.
  • Point Blank: Since Tornado Shots secondary arrows are a continuation of the primary arrows (similar to Chain or Fork), their distance traveled for the purposes of Point Blank includes the distance traveled by their primary projectile as well as their own.[1] This means that targets immediately next to the explosion of a primary arrow do not necessarily take the full +30% damage bonus on the secondary arrow.
  • Projectile speed: Projectile speed will increase the distance that the secondary projectiles travel before disappearing, effectively increasing their range.
