Against lighter enemies and NPC-type enemies, the skill can effectively stunlock them, dealing the full damage and knocking them down with the final hit of the spin (not the swing performed after the spin).
Although this weapon's skill does considerable damage, it is often risky to use it against larger enemies such as bosses, due to their resistance to stuns and knockdowns. Eochaid's Dancing Blade does predominantly Physical Damage, with some Magic Damage, but not a lot. It also scales with Dexterity, instead of Strength, but has worse scaling in general even though it has C in Arcane Scaling. Regalia of Eochaid has the same Skill, but that Weapon does less damage since it has lower Attack Rating.
Thorny Cracked Tear boosts the damage of the Skill.
Winged Sword Insignia, Rotten Winged Sword Insignia, and Millicent's Prosthesis all boost the damage of this Skill since each strike of the corkscrew is considered an attack.
Eochaid's Dancing Blade's damage is based on total Attack Rating, so using things that boost your AR will increase its damage significantly. As of update 1.03 scaling with this weapon has been fixed.
