<div>I am curious as to how effective duststorm is in PvP.  In dueling this was great, but it is scaled down for PvP.  I am only level 33 so it will be a little while before I get it, but that does not stop my curiousity. </div>

If faceing a mele attack's it's very nice spell but if their non mele attack's sandstorm is about useless.<p>Message Edited by slayerwarrior on <span class="date_text">04-05-2006</span><span class="time_text">01:31 PM</span></p>

<div></div>In PvE duststorm is a cool spell that helps with hard herioc encounters or if you get into a nice grind spot like clefts war room, just continually cast it and keep it up to make grinding even easier...But in PvP duststorm is a golden goose.  Id have to say Duststorm is in the top 5 of MOST useful PvP spell/ability.   If your group knows not to stray off when you dust up then your golden.  It truley is an instant tide turner...one minute your being baraged by a couple scounts/tanks and the next they are flying around the battle field.  You instantly notice the dmg reduction the moment you throw duststorm up in pvp lol.  And agian...not many people know about duststorm or any warden spells in general...my tree rarley gets killed in pvp hehe. But yea, in my regular pvp group, my group mates are quick to ask for duststorm when things get rough...which is about every 15 min or so on a pvp server <span>:smileytongue:</span> hehe.Im sorry slayer and other wardens agianst duststorm....i love it.  I don't want it changed one bit...Roor61 WardenNagafen<div></div><p>Message Edited by Lordviperscorpian on <span class="date_text">04-05-2006</span><span class="time_text">02:03 PM</span></p>

I was just pointing out it's very good vs mele attack's like tank/scout but if their a mage, healer it not so useful.

it seems to be draining a more noticable amount of power in battles than i remember... at least sandstorm is for me (level 67 warden) so when things ease up in combat, i usually bring it down to keep my power pool at a managable level. of course, i suppose that depends on your tank. i've got a pretty tough troll who usually tanks for me.<span>:smileyvery-happy:</span><div></div>

i use duststorm master 1, it gets the job done at a cheaper mana cost.  9m per sec > 12m per sec.<div></div>

with such a large amount of pvp combat on the docks and such, duststorm is just fantastic. knocks people off and they cant bell out so quick. LOVE this thing. Great for taking on hoards of greys too, keeps the interupts and damage down<div></div>
