Nioh 2 · Dual Swords skill

Windstorm

Windstorm is a Dual Swords active skill that spins and slices all around the user. The listed move is restricted to High Stance.

How it works

The skills table identifies Windstorm as a Dual Swords active skill and describes it as a spinning attack that slices all around you. It is marked High Stance only. The table lists Windstorm II as a separate skill that increases the strength of the wind generated by Windstorm.

When it helps

Consider Windstorm if you use Dual Swords and want a High Stance move that attacks around you. Its listed stance restriction matters when choosing which moves to use in a particular stance.

The tradeoff

Windstorm is limited to High Stance, so it is unavailable while using the other stances.

Your next step

Check the Dual Swords tree for Windstorm and Windstorm II, then review their commands in Skill Customization.
