Now has 40% more Critical Strike Chance for each Stage (previously 35%). Quality now provides +0-40% to Critical Strike Multiplier while at max Stages (previously 0-5% more Critical Strike Chance for each stage). Blade Flurry: Now has 68.2-125.1% Effectiveness of Base and Added Damage at gem levels 1-20 (previously 60.6-111.2%), and now has 25% more Damage with Hits and Ailments for each Stage (previously 20%). Quality now provides 0-20% more Damage while at max Stages (previously 0-5% more Damage with Hits and Ailments for each stage). Fixed a bug where the Attack Speed for Blade Flurry was only using the Attack Speed multiplier of your off-hand weapon, even when dual wielding or using your main-hand weapon.
3.25.0	The following Skills no longer have the Physical tag: Blade Flurry, Blade Flurry of Incision, Cleave, Cleave of Rage, Cyclone, Cyclone of Tumult, Lancing Steel of Spraying, Perforate, Perforate of Duality, Shrapnel Ballista, Split Arrow, Sweep, Vaal Blade Flurry, Vaal Cleave, and Vaal Cyclone. Blade Flurry: No longer has Added Attack Physical Damage at all gem levels. It now has 61% Effectiveness of Base and Added Damage at gem level 1 (previously 32%), scaling up to 111% at gem level 20 (previously 49%).

It now has 403% Effectiveness of Base and Added Damage at gem level 1 (previously 224%), scaling up to 690% at gem level 20 (previously 343%). It now has 100% chance to Blind enemies on hit, rather than "Blind enemies on Hit".
3.24.0	Blade Flurry of Incision: Now has 35% more Critical Strike Chance for each Stage (previously 25%).

3.0.0	Flameblast, Incinerate and Blade Flurry have had their scaling 'more damage' bonuses changed to 'more damage with hits and ailments', meaning they will still apply to the hit and ailments it causes, but not to on-hit created damage over time effects like Decay. Fixed an evasion sync bug that could occur with Blade Flurry.
2.6.0	Blade Flurry has had its damage reduced by 18% at level 1 of the gem, scaling to a 15% reduction at level 20 of the gem. Blade Flurry's radius has gained 2 units on all of its ranges.

Blade Flurry

Blade Flurry is a channeling melee attack. While channeling, Blade Flurry repeatedly attacks a random enemy in front of the player, also damaging enemies nearby the original target. When released, it will unleash an extra number of attacks equal to the stage reached.

Skill functions and interactions

Stages: Each attack, while channeling, applies a single stage that grants 20% more damage, up to 120% more damage total at 6th stage. Each stage will also add an extra attack to the release of Blade Flurry.
Dual wielding: The skill alternates between the main hand and the offhand for each hit.
Area of effect: Modifiers to area, such as Concentrated Effect Support and Increased Area of Effect Support , affect both the radius of the main hit and the radius of the explosion caused by it.
Trigger supports: While both Cast On Critical Strike Support and Cast while Channelling Support can support Blade Flurry independently, they won't work in tandem; neither will trigger.
Multistrike Support: Blade Flurry (and all channelled skills) cannot be supported by Multistrike.

DPS Calculation

Blade Flurry's tooltip DPS is not accurate, because it shows Average Damage (ignoring Attack Speed) and doesn't account for stage bonus. Here is how to calculate the actual DPS:

where Base is the base damage given by gem level, and StageMult ranges from 1.1 to 1.85 (see table in Derivation) depending on which stage level was reached before releasing. This formula also assumes the player's return strike(s) can hit an enemy; remove the 2 in the middle to approximate what happens when the return strikes don't hit an enemy.

For example, at gem level 20, with "perfect channeling," as of patch 3.14:

or 266% weapon damage per second. Note that the DPS will be slightly lower in practice because players cannot reach perfect channeling, only get very close.
