Blizzard, please consider tweaking the numbers for damage scaling for our beloved Whirlwind for early levels, we are not asking for fundamental changes.

yes, Whirlwind needs a buff in damage

I really think damage scaling of WW needs to be tuned, but would love an overall damage buff.

At least remove the early lvl penalty to WW. This wouldnt break the game

removing early lvl penalty whould be a good starting point, also needs more damage probably

This would do wonders for the viability of whirlwind.

For me its do the damage thang with WW, then ultra buff 2 handed weapon mastery attack. That was you get cool frenzy which we have already, using 2 1 handers - or the option of a whirling poleaxe wielding barb complete with reasonable damage and attack.

We want Whirlwind to go back to the [Classic].
This is because barb will be able to use all weapons (especially 2-handed weapons) in a variety of ways.

Classic whirlwind would be fantastic and promote using 2H weapons.

I hope they will solve this issue

This should be a rather easy fix!
No damage penalty + some extra AR / dmg…
Make WW great again

Agreed, I would be happy with no damage penalty for early levels for whirlwind, would make the playthrough so much better.

WW definitely needs some attention, and probably a functionality rework.

But for now, just remove the - damage penalty. Have level 1 start at 0 instead of -50%. It will not break the game, but it will give Barbs a slightly better leveling experience.
