Now I gotta ask about Bladestorm in Cat

All this talk of changing whirlwind ae's, has me wondering if Bladestorm will also be changed, my money is on the change, since it's description is that of using 'whirlwind.' Still, I gotta ax yo!

On another note, 50% weapon damage on an instant attack is still not terribly horrible. Not to mention the fact that it has unlimited targets now, it sounds more like an interesting change than a flat out nerf imo. Then again, I try to be an optimist.

It isn't necessary to change Bladestorm just because Whirlwind changes. If you want to blow the cooldown for a single target damage boost we don't really have a problem with that. Whirlwind was balanced around doing single target damage, which meant it just got free damage when there was more than one target. Bladestorm by contrast doesn't amount to a sizable chunk of damage in PvE.
