Welcome to The First Descendant Whirlwind Build. This Whirlwind Build is updated for Season 3 Episode 3. The Whirlwind is a tactical rifle that started as stage prop for Luna and was weaponized based on an idea from Deslin. It fires compressed air at ultra-high pressure through a rotary vortex generator to create multiple, small whirlwinds.

Weapon Readjustment
You can use the Weapon Readjustment at the Weapon Workbench in Albion. Here are the best Weapon Readjustments for the Whirlwind:
- Multi-Hit Damage
- Firearm Critical Hit Damage
- Multi-Hit Chance
- Firearm Critical Hit Rate
In any order. Try to upgrade the Weapon Readjustments to at least purple quality.
Weapon Cores
Weapon Cores juice up your damage quite tremendously. However, especially the later-level Weapon Cores are difficult to get. So start with whatever weapon cores you have available. Weapon Cores drop in the Void Erosion Purge endgame activity.
Higher level Weapon Cores drop in the higher level Void Erosion Purge levels in The First Descendant. However, you can gradually work towards the highest level. I recommend trying to get to level six as soon as possible, since it won’t require to clear many stages and will already increase the power of your weapon tremendously.
Best Weapon Cores for the Frenzied Locomotive:
Fire Rate (Free Augmentation)- Fire Rate (Free Augmentation)
- Chill ATK (Attribute Augmentation)
- Firearm Critical Hit Damage (Hit Augmentation)
