I use Tornado as well, mainly because it has a better animation heh.

it all depends on your speed really...
up until you get close to speed cap, Spin actually has a higher DPS.
Closer to the speed cap, Spin2 has a higher DPS.

Area2 is an area attack with a chance to stun and dizzy
Spin2 is an area attack with a chance to dizzy and a slightly higher damage modifier

If you test it, area2 now has a higher damage multiplier, plus the chance to stun and better animations. I never use spin2 anymore.

I use Area 2 because I think it does more dmg, I recently figured out a nice little set up for pikeman that involves it, though its luck if you hit the right bar or not I think these attacks hit action most of the time- Our Bleed 2 (forgot itsname sticks on action), Area 2, Sweep 1(or 2 if needed), and leg hit 3. Though I would like more dmg on the leg hit 3 what can you do?
With that little set up I did 2k dmg on a tkas action (kd no dizzy) before he could do 1k on my mind. You have to spam hit three after words and make sure you have some speeding action poison lances(132 str preferably if you have higher its better) and after you stick a few poisons on them bust out the high dmg LVa ( I have a 300-1k dmg lva :-/).
Yeah Area 2 rocks though, I use it on every thing , just cause I think it does more dmg.
