―In-game description[src]

Whirlwind Sprint is a Dragon Shout in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. The shouter has the ability to dash rapidly forward about 60 feet.

Contents

TacticsEdit

  • This shout can be very useful in escaping situations where you are trapped in the terrain, or for reaching enemies who are trying to flee from you, such as backpedaling mages.
  • This shout will propel you up slopes, but not down them, allowing you to "glide" over gaps. If you need to get to a point in front of you that you can't jump to, you can use whirlwind sprint to dash across.

TriviaEdit

  • Using a Dragon Soul to unlock the shout before Borri gives you his knowledge causes him to teach you the next word in the shout instead of the one you had used the soul on.
  • Shouting Whirlwind Sprint at a Wooden Bowl can be used to clip through doors not leading to other cells. For example, doors that require keys or levers to open. To perform, shout all three words (or whatever has been unlocked) at the bowl as its dropped in front of the door.
  • If you learn Wuld and demonstrate it before the Greybeards teach you it, Arngeir will acknowledge it, and Borri will teach you Nah, instead.
  • If you also know Nah and demonstrate that, Arngeir will too acknowledge it, and Borri will teach you Kest, instead.
  • When using Whirlwind Sprint in water, it does not happen until you step on land.

BugsEdit

  •  PS3  360   PC  Sometimes, when using the second word after WULD, the Dragonborn doesn't say NAH for about ten seconds, but still moves as though they had said it. This has also occured with the accompanying shout sound.
  • If drawing a bow and then using the shout, nothing will happen. When relesesing the arrow or pressing the "ready key" two seconds later the Dragonborn will shout.
  •  360   When using Whirlwind Sprint to zone it causes a huge bug that makes your vision looked blured, blurs the color and the lighting together making it pretty much impossible to do anything game still works like normal just completly screws the game visuals doesn't allow for loading of previous data its not reccomended to save the game during this bug as it will pretty much make your game unplayable, no monsters spawns during this bug.
