Wow, do these still exist?

Kommentar von Boudan

Magic dust is essential for successfully completing part of the hunter's epic bow quest. The magic dust is used to sleep the pet of the Un'Goro demon while the hunter fights the demon itself. If you get this drop, sell it in the AH!

Also, Anvil is correct... the drop rate is terrible and the spawns are limited. They do respawn somewhat frequently though.

Great item for classes who dont't have any CC. If you are stubborn enough you can make alot of money selling this dust and win many fights using it. The only problem - very rare spawns, so 100% mount is very usefull if you are going to farm this.

Great for PvP, most twinks would pay around 40s-50s for these.

Can be used in arena with no DR. Able to trinket out of this effect.

Kommentar von 22619

This does NOT work in the arena as on August 2nd, 2007.

No idea if it did prior as I did not test first hand.

If you are farming Dust Devil's for Magic Dust, prepare to be disappointed. The drop rate is actually around 5% and it takes quite a while to farm a stack.

Kommentar von MikaelAllan

If your going to Farm this stuff you may as well take a couple extra minutes and farm some Light Feathers that drop off the birds out there, Mages and Priests use em' for their Floaty spells. So you can usualy AH them for a fair enough price. Worth the extra 5 min for another 1-6G.

Is this thing any good in pvp? i mean up to 30 sec sleep will be nice for most classes for their cd's...

Kommentar von 88272

In PVP it will not last more than 10 seconds. For me, at 70, it's usually only about 4-6 seconds and highly unreliable in that aspect. BUT I will say, in more situations it has been very nice and helped me immensely more than it has been a waste.

I can use the Magic Dust, and sometimes even though it hardly lasts long at all, most people don't know what it is and just waste their PVP trinket to break it and I immediately follow up with a blind which usually gives me the win since they have no trinket and I can re open on them...

If you are a rogue, I highly recommend you always have about 10! It has led to some very interesting and sometimes hilarious moments in WSG! You can also use this through a Paladin's Blessing of Protection and that can seriously turn a fight around!

The best tool you can have in PVP is being unpredictable!

HERE IS MY ROUTE I TAKE TO FARM THESE!
http://img208.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dustdevilpatternga7.jpg

I can usually pick up about 6 each run. Takes like 10 minutes and after a full route, the devil's should start respawning right when you begin the 2nd circle!

Also, make a macro like this: /tar dust devil
While you run to each red circle on my map, start spamming the macro, you should find the mob fairly quickly.

From my experience, I find the droprate is a bit more reliable than 48%. I would guess it's more like 70%.

Kommentar von makron

It is shadow school so it should also go throught blessing of protection, that might be very useful

I'm not sure if the drop rates on these have been nerfed or not, but in 60+ kills I have only recieved 7. Yes I may have to give it up to just bad luck, but the probability of only getting 7 out of over 60, when it is listed as a 47% drop rate is so low that it is very improbable.

Riding around Westfall on epic mount is the only way to get lots of these. I farm them on my main and my twink. It seems the faster I kill them and get to the next kill, the more frequently they drop. I absolutely love these!

Kommentar von Salvogpwns24

Saw a dust devil once, killed it and this dropped. I was happy because I know twinks use them. Walked a bit and killed another dust devil, drops another one. So I put them up on AH and got 28g for both =) I might start farming these on my main.
Reminds me of the time I killed Bellygrub and she dropped the Skeletal club, my friend got it. For fun we killed her again and she dropped the Searing Blade! We were on a roll so farmed her a bit but no drop, might go farm her some more later.

Kommentar von 175557

the droprate looks good from the dust devils, however wowhead only records when something drops, and most of the time they dont drop nething

Kommentar von 67896

Use these at Magister's Terrace, on the thrid boss, these can help immensely.

Kommentar von 195714

I thought you could buy these at Falconwing Square from the cheese vendor? Or was I wrong?

Kommentar von Fizzles

This item is amazing for PvP. It can essentially add 10 seconds on to a Rogue's stun-lock, and doesnt share a Diminishing Return with any Rogue abilities afaik.
It can be and amazing asset for any class, though, as opponents won't suspect a Level 10 item.

Thank God for Swifty.

Kommentar von Anarchy

This actually lasts for 30 seconds in PvP.

Kommentar von luigi211

Actually a lot of people ask me how do i sleep them.
As a destro warlock i gain pretty much time against rogues, or even the warrior's death wish.
Like the comment above, they won't suspect a lvl 10 item.
And that's funny.

Kommentar von Norrinir

~~As a sleep effect, this item shares DR with hunter's Wyvern Sting and druid's Hibernate.~~

According to few more combat tests, this sleep falls most likely into Sap/Gouge/Polymorph DR category. That could explain why Rokzilla had experience with this spell lasting only few seconds. However, I'm not sure about sleep DR category.

I can confirm that Magic Dust isn't affected by PvP CC cap (10 sec) and can last up to its full duration. Also, it isn't diminished by player level. I was able to get full 30 sec duration on 79 Death knight today.

Kommentar von 61823

As of the 3.1 patch, this WILL have the correct 10 seconds duration in pvp

Was fun while it lasted :(

Edit - Apologises, at the time of posting the post was still on the main page of MMO Champ

Kommentar von Darthdavo

Very usefull for taming pets with a stun.

Kommentar von 204228

Hmm, a fine powder called "Magic Dust" that puts you to sleep. It would be more true to real life "Magic Dust" if it decreased your chance to hit......

Kommentar von 216503

A reference to a mythical creature called Sandman, who brought good dreams by sprinkling magical sand onto eyes of children. So aim for the eyes next time you use this. Linky: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandman

Kommentar von 188301

"oooh! im gona spray some dust in your eyes, then you'll sleep, ooooo!"

Kommentar von 432101

"Now, i am going to put you in a trance. When i say 'sleep', you shall fall asleep."
"Wait, I dont want to fall asl-"
"SLEEP!"

Other than that i find that it comes in handy a lot.

Kommentar von 427011

helps tame Humar the Pridelord....
if you get any magic dust..(and dont need it) sell on AH
comes in handy for Hunters while taming elite pets

Kommentar von fadeaway

PATCH 3.2:
This dust has been nerfed further and now has a 100% chance to Fizzle (not work) as a level 80 character using this against another level 80 player.

Congrats on having a freed up bag slot, all! :(

Kommentar von 366196

This is what happens to all cool items :S Hordes complain to a GM and they "fix" it. Guess its wrong to surprise ppl in PvP now, no matter what u use.

Kommentar von bwappo

As a 39, I was able to get the dust to work once out of every 8 or 9 times on a level 7 mob in Dun Morogh. Each time the dust fizzled, it did not get consumed. When the dust finally worked, it did get consumed.

Curious, I then tried to get the dust to work against another 39 in a duel, to no avail.

Basically, the capability of the dust is still there, but remains almost completely inaccessible at this time.

Kommentar von 528065

Very disappointed. This stuff is officially worthless now, at level 80 i tried to use this on a 78 non-elite in crystalsong forest and it fizzeled something like 100 times in a row, I decided it just wasnt going to work and proceeding to one shot the stupid satyr. I got it to work against a lvl 6 defias cutpurse though... oh and also a rat by the auction house... and after only 5 fizzles!

Kommentar von 106456

You can feel the fun sucked out of the game.

Kommentar von Rtucci

I have video of me PvP'ing in BC just putting people to sleep in BG's for the full 30 sec. Oh the fun that was had back when cool little items like this were usable and no one knew wtf was going on when you used it or how to obtain the items. I believe I still have at least one of these lying around somewhere on my account.

Kommentar von MoarHeroisms

There's only one Magic Dust left in my bank, and now I can never use it. ;_____;

Kommentar von givemewowhead

I just tried to use this on a level 22 player outside of Stormwind and it fizzled about 40 times in a row.

But it did work on a nearby cow the first time!

Kommentar von irishlord

does this still drop? They took the time to change it from Dust Devil to unbound cyclone.
