Usage Strategies

  • The tornado generally follows enemies, but slowly. It is best to move the character around it as needed, keeping enemies in its area-of-effect while using other attacks.
  • Alternatively, just cast it and forget it, letting it cause mayhem while the Druid uses other spells.
  • The range, duration, and damage frequency are fixed, however modifications can be taken that allow these parameters to scale. For example, Unleashed will allow Tornado to hit twice as often at max CA level 200, while Storm Zone will more than double the area of effect at max level.
  • The cooldown slowly decreases as Tornado levels up, and can get as low as 8.0s at high levels.
  • The Tempest silver mod will allow two Tornados active at once, and at very high levels if the cooldown+regen can brought to under 10s, then three Tornados may be active at once.
  • If using Hurricane (which disarms enemies by default) then the gold mod Disarm may be redundant and therefore Critical would be a better choice.
