Everyone's favorite spinning, multi-hitting tornado of a skill returns in D3. As it did in D2, Whirlwind lands multiple hits to anything in the barbarian's path, and it can strike multiple monsters per use. The whirling graphic is much improved in D3, with the weapon visible tracking around in a circle, leaving a glowing light as it spins and pausing an instant when it makes contact with a hapless enemy.

''Mention when the skill Whirlwind'' was revealedin Blizzard's [[WWI 2008| World Wide Invitational]] in Paris, along with the announcement of Diablo 3. It is pretty much identical to the Diablo 2 Whirlwind, except requiring fury to use. During the BlizzCon's 2009 Diablo 3 panel, and any other the development team showed off visual changes that has been made to the skill during development. Any general changes to skills concerning all With the creation of the [[classDune Dervish]]es you can add , who also had whirlwind, the development team found out that the Dune Dervish's whirlwind is much better looking than the Barbarian's. The team showed off the new Whirlwind for the Barbarian, with a demonstration of him slaughtering multiple farm animals with it (Secret Cow Level?). The new Whirlwind is much more intense and as the barbarian spins, dust and sand is seen being around him, also, the whirlwind seems more vicious, giving a feeling of "weight of the weapon + the speed of spinning = very hard hits" to the [[skill]]s articleplayer.''
