== Description ==
Clashing Spiral is a 5 hit ranged attack that derives most of its damage from the weight of the Spear used. The opponent is unable to move for one second while the five hits of Clashing Spiral are dealt (similar to being crit locked). At level 5, it has a one second cast time and two second after-cast delay.

== Information ==
*Clashing Spiral bypasses [[DEF|defense]].
*Requires its user to be wielding a Spear.
*Has a unique size penalty.
*Recommended levels are 5 or 1.

== Damage ==
*Formula: [(weaponweight*0.8*skillmod)+strbonus+weaponupgrades]*damagemodifiers*5

*Most ATK is not calculated into Clashing Spiral's damage. Things such as Spear Mastery/Weapon Masteries, Andre cards, or base weapon ATK will not add damage. However, weapon upgrades do (the damage they add is not random, such as on normal melee attacks).
*When Clashing Spiral misses, you will do the same damage as your weapon upgrades normally add to Clashing Spiral.
*Racial/elemental/size cards or items that multiply the final damage by a percentage, such as The Sign, will add damage.
*Hunting Spear is the best weapon to use with this skill as weapon weight adds the most damage to date (Noghalt 10.3 update).
*Every 10 [[STR]] adds a set amount of damage to Clashing Spiral that can be multiplied by cards, The Sign, or similar items.

== Cast Time & Delay ==
*At level 5, each point of [[DEX]] reduces Spiral's cast time by 1/150th of a second. The formula for the base cast time is ((150 - dex)/150) seconds or (1 - dex/150) seconds.
*Any cards, equipment, or items that add [[DEX]] will reduce the cast time. As will skills like [[Suffragium]] or [[Magic Strings]].
*[[Magic Strings]] also reduces the after-cast delay.
