Whirl Till You Hurl needs to be looked at, but only because it functions differently in PvP than it does in PvE. When EQ originally launched (as well as P99), Whirl was a solid 12+ second stun. It was quickly nerfed a month or so after EQ released because the first level 50s were perma-locking everything with Whirl. It was then changed to a nearly-useless spell, as it became nearly impossible to land and had a huge chance to break on any damage.

Sitting wouldn't stop the stun effect of the spell, just the spin. However, there's definitely a problem considering that in PvE, Whirl is in the nerfed nearly useless version, but in PvP it's in the OP you're stun-locked and there's literally nothing you can do version.

To get this spell back in line, Whirl needs to be much more resistible in PvP (almost never landing on anyone except those lower level and with poor MR), as well as breaking on any damage. Whirl was not a spell that Enchanters ever really used in PvP. On P99, it's their bread and butter ability.
