==Overview==
  
* Wind as an element is most similar to its force tree's counterpart [[Fire Techniques#Fire|Fire]]. They are both elements meant for general utility (mobbing mostly).
+
* Wind Techniques can inflict the Mirage status, which causes enemy attacks to occasionally miss.
** However, unlike Fire, Wind has relatively high power per cast and is quite PP efficient... after crafting.
+
** Very few bosses have a special interaction with Mirage; the most notable being Dark Falz Loser.
*** Wind has no counterpart to Fire's [[Force#firetechscharge|Flame Tech S Charge]] though, which lets Fire outdo Wind's max potential DPS quite easily in most cases. Without that however, Wind's [[Wind Techniques#Nazan Type 0|Nazan Type 0]] can outdo anything fire can put forth.
 
* Focused on moving enemies around and multi-hit.
 
** Multi-hit can make building up your [[Compound Techniques]] gauge faster.
 
*** As nearly all techs are multi hit though, you may not get the full damage out of them per cast should they move out of range before all hits are complete.
 
** Note that moving enemies around can look fine on your screen, but other players may be disrupted.
 
*** Bosses are synced in movement, non-bosses are not.
 
*** See each specific tech for what happens, if anything.
 
* All techs minus gizan (and later on, zan) have several uses.
 
** Given each tech's different properties, wind can be considered a jack-of-all-trades type of element.
 
** Zan and Gizan would be the least used wind techs. Everything else has relatively high utility.
 
* Wind techs can cause the Mirage status effect. This causes enemy's attacks to sometimes miss.
 
** Be warned this is one of the less overall useful status effects. Unless you're specifically going for the status effect on a boss, try to finish off whatever you're targeting.

Concentrated:
 
 
* Reduced charge time means you can get more projectiles out at once, for a bit less power each.
 
 
Windslicer:
 
 
* The increased projectile speed effectively increases Zan's range by about 1.4 times. (If the 30 speed estimate is correct, it's 43.3% specifically)
 
** However, the increased range means a larger open area is needed to make the most out of each cast.
 
* With Windslicer3 and Zan17, damage per cast is increased by 9.3~14.0%.

Windslicer:
 
 
* Windslicer3 lowers Gizan's already relatively small range even more. When you consider Multi-Hit3 Razan still effectively does more damage than Windslicer3 Gizan (albeit for more PP), while not being limited to being cast around you, there's not much reason to use gizan or this craft.
 
** On that note, one charged efficient3 sazan can give a similar effect to one charged gizan.
 
* With Windslicer3 and Gizan17, damage is increased by 11.1~20.5% per cast.
 
 
Concentrated:
 
 
* While a good craft would actually make gizan a reasonably high dps option, a similar and better effect can be obtained with Concentrated3 Nazan. The only thing Gizan would do better is potentially be able to cast more often and possibly build your compound technique gauge slightly faster.
 
** A good type 0 nazan craft will completely out-do gizan though. Both in PP efficiency, dps/power, and general utility.

Multi-Hit:
 
* Allows you to open switches in one cast (the ones in the Lillipa/ Vopar TAs for example) with the 2 extra hits.
 
* '''Effectively boosts damage per cast by 60.7%~63.7%''', assuming Multi-Hit3 and level 17 tech.
 
** Pretty much 0 downside to this craft. Get it.
 
* Uncharged Razan does become weaker though. It's still 50% of the listed power, not 50% of the adjusted 5 hit power.
 
 
Windslicer:
 
* With Windslicer 3 and level 17 tech, it's approximately 16.2%~21.6% more damage per cast.
 
* The increased charge time nullifies a lot of the dps potentially gained.
 
** If you do charge it, Multi-Hit3 is better in every way.

* Because of its movement properties, take note of bosses that can be moved by it. Other players might have it warping around a bunch on their screen due to movement syncing and possible lag, causing them to miss a lot.
 
** The same can be said for mobs/trash, but it's generally less of an issue. De-synced mobs will not be affected by the suction effect on their screen if the target is de-synced enough.
 
** Also note that while it does suck monsters in, it can make floating enemies rise higher. This is primarily notable on a [[Darkers#Winged Darker|Luda Sorcerer]].
 
*** You can counteract the rising by using free aim to aim at the ground (if the target isn't too far away).
 
*** However, the Luda Sorcerer tends to also not attack when moved to a higher height than normal. So it can be useful in keeping them from attacking/ teleporting if you need some time.

Concentrated:
 
* Coupled with territory PP save, this can help you get off "free" damage for less PP cost with a good craft.
 
* Very useful if fighting an aggressive target (things in Ultimate Quests for example). The shorter charge time leaves you more time to dodge afterward.
 
 
Efficient:
 
* As wind doesn't have any way to decrease charge time outside of crafting, the extra time is quite the penalty. PP cost can decrease to a point where it would cost 3 PP, but the decreased usability could lower your/ your group's damage by quite a lot.
 
** Of course, if you can get all your damage out within the short time the zanverse is up (a charged Maron for example), this can be a helpful option.

  • Releases one projectile when uncharged, 3 when charged.
    • The listed power assumes all 3 charged projectiles hitting one target.
  • Each projectile can do one hit per mob per "pass". Each direction change of the projectile enables it to do one more hit per mob.
    • The projectile "turns" after a fixed time
    • The maximum duration of each charged projectile is 15 seconds.
    • The maximum number of "passes" is 14 times.
  • None of the projectiles disappear early unless they hit a wall or the user.
  • The max range of each projectile is about 30M in a straight line. Uncharged, the projectile travels about 75% of that (22-23M).
    • This makes the default projectile speed about 30 when charged

  • Charged is 34% x 3, or 102% of the given power.
    • Uncharged power is 50% of the given power.
  • Lifts enemies up into the air (those that can be lifted). Causes them to be in a knockdown state too, if they are lifted.
    • On other players screens, this will lift enemies up in the location your Razan was cast. However, this is only if the target is relatively close to where your cast appears on their screen.
      • This also means a different target that isn't the one you target can be lifted up randomly on another player's screen, should mobs become de-synchronized enough.
  • Has unlimited range if free aimed. Can also hit locked-on enemies behind a wall.
    • With no valid target, its maximum cast range is about 30M. Uncharged is half that.

  • When charged and shot, the wind sphere travels up to about 15M before hovering in place for a second or so. The ball damages enemies until it disappears.
    • The sphere can travel through enemies. It will not travel behind enemy walls or things like TD/MBD darker walls.
    • The sphere does not ever prematurely disappear.
    • Uncharged has the ball do only one hit before disappearing. It also has no knockback in this state.
    • 15M is the same as uncharged Rafoie and Safoie Type 0. Realistically, the center of the projectile seems to fall just short of that at about 14.75M.
  • The sphere's range is quite wide in comparison to what the animation displays. I'd guess it has a roughly 2 meter radius around its animation/ center point.
  • If you hit enemies at point blank range, enemies that can be knocked back will be knocked back by it like uncrafted Nazan.
    • If they aren't in melee range, the sphere may travel straight past the intended target and miss.
    • Note that even if enemies are knocked back, they may not end up where the sphere stops at.
  • You can use free aim to shoot the ball into the ground to stop it from traveling too far
    • Can also target a wall to stop the sphere's movement early.
    • If you aim it at a slightly heightened non-terrain structure, such as a turret/ais spawn pad in the various "defense" EQs, nazan type 0 may not do any damage to things surrounding it.
  • Can "hitstun lock" enemies with due to its fast hit rate.
  • 2 hits of 10% power when the sphere travels, 8 hits of 10% once the sphere is in place.

  • When cast, Zanverse summons a circle of wind energy. When a player inflicts damage to a target while standing in the field, 20% of the damage inflicted is dealt again as Wind damage.
  • The field stays for about 1.5s if uncharged, 5.5s if charged.
  • As of the EPISODE 5 update, this Technique is no longer affected by the effects of Skills and Potentials.
  • Zanverse is unaffected by Just Attack.
  • Zanverse damage is affected by innate damage multipliers applicable to a target. For example, the 4x damage multiplier on A.I.S. Exoda will also affect Zanverse damage. However, Weak Bullet multipliers will not.
  • Zanverse affects A.I.S., but does not affect Turrets or Gun Emplacements.
  • If multiple Zanverse overlap and are cast by multiple people, only the oldest Zanverse takes effect. After it expires, the next oldest takes its place.
  • Like most other support techniques, casting any support technique that isn't Zondeel prematurely stops the field's effects, despite the animation still playing.
  • Zanverse damage doesn't charge Photon Blast Gauge or Compound Technique gauge.
  • Zanverse damage is attributed to the caster for the purposes of Hate. Thus, it is possible to attract enemies' attention with Zanverse.
  • Increasing the skill's level seems to only increase its status effect rate chance.
