So I finally started looking into the new Hustle armor and possible more interesting use cases (limited as they may be), especially combined with my still looking for a barb build I actually truly like. Needless to say, that train of thought quickly brought me to a previously raised question: Does Evade work with Whirlwind?
Fun fact first:
Turns out Evade's sound effect is apparently static so if you run around on a barb and Evade, it actually gives you the amazon sound effect. A bit weird..but should make testing a lot easier as you can simply go by sound. I.e. "evading is the one sound a barb will otherwise never make".
Just normally running around, Evade procced quite a bit, as would be expected, reliably giving me the amazon sound effect on the barb.
While whirlwinding however, after 2 full CS clears, I haven't heard (or otherwise noticed) a single Evade. So with that, early testing (more runs/more targeted testing to follow tomorrow I guess, when I'm less tired) leads me to believe that Whirlwind does not in fact count as movement so far as Evade is concerned, making Hustle a bit of a wasted chest slot as a result.
I'll look into that a bit more to get to the point of being statistically more certain but until then..has anyone actually (systematically) looked into this yet and confirmed the functionality one way or the other?

Can be used to make Runewords:
