Mantis Star...any good??

[Hammertime]

<p>I have 4 points in Mantis Star...and I find that I am not really impressed with it.</p><p>Am I missing something??  I thought the decrease in Stamina of the enemy would be great.</p>

<p>Something better than regular throwing stars to pull with... will generate more threat.  Not bad in PvP either I suppose?</p><p>You can maintain it on a mob, so the sta debuff is pretty solid IMO</p>

<p>Stamina debuffs you don't really see the impact on your screen, it effects MaxHP so it will shrink target HP pool.</p><p>It is definately worth using. I dunno if I would alter the course of my AP spec just to grab it, but I grabbed it on my way for Mantis Bolt, and it's not been a waste of points IMO.</p>

Don't always use it to pull with. CAs cause greater agro range and bring more mobs sometimes. It is godly when soloing it reduces the HP of mobs by 3k+ and well it is nice to start with.  It works really well in duels/pvp and adds very small dps when ranging but is still worth doing at the start t reduce their hp by a thousand then instantly throw a shrunken for another 800 damage + 0-3 procs to start off any fight.  It is a decent filler because it even has a small use on raids unlike our aoe stun or root/rotation attacks.
