Twister is a spear skill. It creates an erratically moving twister projectile that deals damage and applies Blind to enemies on contact. If the twister passes over a Whirlwind, it consumes the whirlwind to create another twister that deals more damage. If a twister passes over an elemental ground effect or an elemental Tornado, it gains extra damage of that element.

  • Twister: Now deals 80-232% Attack Damage at Gem levels 1-20 (previously 72–190%).
0.2.1
  • Added "Barrageable" gem tag.[Undocumented]
0.2.0b
  • (Hotfix 1) Fixed a bug which was causing "Elemental twisters Gain 50% of damage as damage of the corresponding Type" on Twister to gain an extra 50% for each Projectile fired. So one of the projectiles was gaining 50%, another 100%, another 150% and so on.
