This build is made for dealing high damage to enemies, the whirlpool will tend to do around 110 damage a tick to non tanks and around 60 to tanks so using it against tanks isn’t effective unless ur goal is to slow them. This comes in handy during team fights if u can whirlpool the enemies and summon the kraken then hit them with the tidal wave it is typically an overkill for the average god and for those tankier gods if u need to finish them off then using your second ability is the best way to do so. Another use of the whirlpool if u need to kill a tanks is to slow the then tidal wave and get close enough to hit them with the triple trident, the trident is they way to take down tanks in this build dealing 300+ damage if u land all three tridants if u go for the spear instead of lifesteal then make sure to hit the tanks with the whirlpool this will lower their defense toward u allowing for increases damage.

There's no pen. There is none. 15 pen from the "situational" spear of desolation. Does not count.
