Path of Exile 2 Wind Blast FAQs
How does Wind Blast scale with proximity?
Enemies closer to the caster are knocked back farther, making positioning critical for maximizing control.
Does Wind Blast benefit from stun or daze modifiers?
Yes. Wind Blast has 150% more Stun buildup and causes Daze based on physical damage dealt. Support gems like Stun III and Brink I amplify this effect.
Can Wind Blast be used while moving?
No. Wind Blast is a stationary attack and cannot be cast while moving.
Is Wind Blast effective against bosses?
Wind Blast is more effective against groups due to its cone AoE and Knockback. Against bosses, its Daze buildup can still be useful for interrupt synergy.
Does Knockback affect loot drops or enemy AI?
Knockback does not affect loot, but it can reposition enemies away from danger zones or interrupt their attack sequences.
