Should it deal aoe damage or continue to hit once at a time?

imo, it should take on cleave's functionality. have two 180 cones with a radius of weapon range. every 4 frames it alternates the cone, hits every monster in that cone. also alternates the weapon, so 2h is just more dmg outright than dual wield. then 2h can be justified to be 5 frames.

It is fine as is but it should just be a fixed attack speed. That would open up so many weapon options.

I think it having a chance to hit (based on ar per monster) as an aoe is the way to go, anything in the weapons defined range. It would make the skill actually function the way youd think it should. the whole reason ww currently feels bad is because it can only hit 1 monster at any given time. so when you whirl through a large pack all that damage is getting split all over the place, which makes short range weapons king because it helps reduce the amount of monsters in range to divide that dmg up. this makes large range 2 handers feel absolutely terrible. in no universe should it feel bad having an eth 2 handed botd trying to ww even with hitting max ias fpa.

TBH, I think this games running on the same engine it did 20 years ago. Cleave is a pretty easy thing to simulate by throwing out small aoe in a 5-15 degree radius. THE FACT WW still just deals damage in sequence makes me think they didn't know how to fix it. If they had do add splash damage to each hit. I think it'd work in the engine.
