What Windburst is for

What the Windburst Aspect does

Windburst is compact explosive room clear: higher-impact local bursts in exchange for less natural reach than Chain Lightning.

Chance to trigger Windburst — an explosion that hits everything in range (more damage than Chain Lightning, shorter default range).

Pick it when
Pick it when enemies bunch inside a predictable area and the weapon can trigger repeated explosions.
Think twice when
Widely separated enemies or a single boss reduce the value of the local blast.
