Using Whirlwind Sprint Optimally

You may have already knew that you can use the whirlwind sprint shout to get to places that you normally can't, but I thought I'd share this video anyway :)

[@binemisko]

I was worried that you might hit an npc and get 1k gold bounty

Oh my god how did that ward not shatter and just stagger you? AND HOW DID THAT UNRELENTING FORCE NOT HIT SOMEONE BEHIND THE DRAGON AND TURN THE WHOLE VILLAGE ON YOU? Guess skyrim just hates me

[@williamturner7131]

a) they have a massive mana pool or b) they have the mod that turns ward into a really, really cheap spell (as it should be) or c) both

[@jackjones7062]

@@williamturner7131 thank you, informative

[@StalKalle]

I think they tweaked it a bit so NPC's are a little more forgiving of friendly fire during some battles. In my current playthrough I know I have accidentally hit NPCs in battle without problems.

[@krisna9048]

If you put your ward before the dragon breath fire or ice the ward will not break

[@jackjones7062]

@@krisna9048 I played skyrim on PS3 for many, many years, it destroyed my social life, and I never once managed to fully block a dragons breath attack with a ward, but then again the animation is so quick i could never fully charge the ward before the dragon started breathing so maybe you're right and you just have to predict it

[@jawadiustunda1193]

11 years and I never even thought about doing this. You learn something every day

Missed the point where you accidentally hit an npc. When guards completely forgetting about the dragon and whole village just gank you. Ah Skyrim, what a wonderful and relaxing game.

[@JACKMAN9988]

Only in Skyrim will a whole village and their dog descend on a fucking dragon like some kind of gang

[@Surfword]

As a guy who parkours around Skyrim that is exactly how you use that shout

Dude, I fking hate the shout cooldown system. To be the friggin dragonborn and all, and have so much time between shouts for no reason, makes absolutely no sense.

[@quinnception631]

It kinda makes sense early on when you haven't trained with the greybeards,but I agree, shouts should have no cooldown

[@EternalEmpr3ss]

so its not OP lol wdym makes no sense

[@Drummafolife]

If shouts had no cool down then they would be nerfed to hell so they aren't OP and it would be way less cool

[@Daniel_Oliv]

Isnt it just the best when u try to either shout , hit and use a spell and in that second a fucking npc come right in front of u hit him and now u have to fight the dragon AND the guards

They need some time to actually charge to full strenght. Look how he hid behing structure to protect ward from taking damage whike charging it. Really solid play there.
