Wwsin, issue with whirlwind and fury runeword

Whirlwind for assassin needs to be address as it makes the character unplayable and annoying to use. Whirlwind will occasionally lock me in place and lag and a few seconds later i will teleport across to where i should have pathed. There is also an issue with Fury runeword. i noticed if i put it on my off hand the stats arent applied to my character. I am not sure if its just not correctily showing on character sheet or the affixes on the claw arent being applied at all. The affixes seem to show when i put fury as my mainhand.

I just made a chaos for my full Natalya’s sin and it is AWFUL. Literally unplayable. Massive lag between WW casts. Randomly stopping without completing pathing. Getting stuck for a bit then teleporting to the spot I clicked. This is a joke.

I have the same issue. I keep dying because I get stuck in mod packs. This is aweful, especially when the runeword is that expensive to create. That was the last nail on the coffin for me im quitting. Too many gamebreaking bugs. Broken game, made by lazy and greedy people.

I almost abandoned this game alredy. The one thing i really wanted to do is try an WW assassin and every post here says its broken. Sucks i guess

Stats only show up in main hand. Swap them and you’ll see. Been this way forever. Not a bug, working as intended. However the stuttering/stopping and desync seems to be entirely based around assassin using ww. Barb wws just fine. I hope they fix this and I wonder what’s causeing it. I’m assuming it has to do with the assassin ww animation but I can’t understand why.

They probably fixed FHR and regular block animation causing the bug but never fixed assassin claw block…

anybody new don’t listen to the whiners above, wwsin is fine they just need to git gud…

just tried it over at single player to have decent gear, almost everything is working as intended. there is a small visual glitch where assassin zips through the air just standing while in ww form, but it’s just a visual glitch, she actually kills stuff while zipping through it’s just an animation lock but otherwise mechanically it’s fine…

most of the stuff described above is just ppl with bad internet connection in general.
I quickly whipped up a build that gives the assassin 4FPA when wwing and is centered not around high damage output but around near 100% crushing blow chance (95% to be precise), and she murders stuff in singleplayer. i tried only player 1 difficulty, but let’s be honest players1 is default battlenet experience anyways unless you do pubs.

the re is only one bug with this build that’s still of concern. 4fpa ww is chewing through Chaos runeword’s durability like a bum drinking hootch… and the repairs are very pricey, if You don’t manage to score an ort rune before durability runs out, then surely your gold will run out :stuck_out_tongue: seriously blizz an indestructible affix or at least repair 1 durability every 20 seconds etc. would be a nice addition to that runeword…
I’m even planing to cube roll a failed unique as the other weapon in hopes the increased triple max durability will persist on the item both in upgrade and in 6pskull rerolls
