Dust

I wanted to open this Thread so people can share counters for her. My attempts so far have been brutal. Feel free to drop what is working for you. Thanks.

Dust is worse than bullseye.

What? Just don't parry her and her sp1 is really easy to avoid. Also don't use a purifier. She really isn't that difficult of a defender.

This is the first time I've ever fought dust. The incursion nodes make her worse than normal, but still very manageable if you understand what is going on.

Well I appreciate the suggestion, but I don't think it's going to be that easy for everyone.

You're probably right in terms of learning her playstyle, but she's taking out Champs in Zone 4 and 3 for me. She's altogether powerful. It will take some adjusting for sure.

Same here. No problem with ironheart but Dust I need to learn.

I had a vivified and reverse controls dust on zone 4 lol. She seems like she has a lot of armour as my herc was hitting like a noodle against her

Absorbing Man is a good counter, if you stay in Black uru form, he has a ton of physical resistance, minimizing the sandstorm damage.

is Dust harder than Ironheart? Is this just from the Incursions? I had a WAY harder time with Ironheart in EQ than Dust.

Just Incursions, but good to know, thanks.

I haven’t tested it but I imagine Thing is a good counter + he’s not bad at Incursions.

He gains physical resistance per rock stack to help reduce the sandstorm damage, and his protection buff at sig 200 reduces all damage by 100%, which is useful in later zones when blocked hits can do 10k damage.

She is pretty annoying as a defender and has similar mechanics to terrax i think, intercepting works just fine, for me chavez and scorpion did well, my main problem while fighting her is all the dust particle animations lags my device like crazy 😩💀

I've had some success with Sunspot as well.

You’re not wrong, but I kinda never want to see Abs Man again

zemo seems to work quite well against her and i tested him without the phoenix synergy
