Bypassing Dust sp3's 22 second cooldown with sandstorm. (Too broken bug.)

Cannot post the video here due to size issues but here's a link of the video I posted on reddit of my gameplay with Dust against Hercules.

Got my first 5 star Dust today and her sp3 says that after you use the sp3 the power is not consumed but a sandstorm is activated for 22 seconds. And when sandstorm is active you can't use sp3.
The breakthrough I found here is using a heavy before sp3 so theres a sandstorm for 16 seconds after which it goes on cooldown for 8 seconds.
Now here's the thing during this 8 second cooldown sandstorm doesn't gets activated after dust's sp3. And we can literally use as much sp3 as we want within this time frame.
For context I think I can active atleast 9 sp3 in less than 1 second in the cooldown timer (just tried that out). So it's about a minimum of 72-80 sp3 (can be more) back to back.
Considering a stronger Dust sp3 does around 20k damage, obviously a high ranked Dust will do even more damage per sp3. We can farm a bare minimum of 1.5 million damage within the 8 second cooldown timer of the sandstorm.
Defender's sp3 also gets charged but if you are fast enough you can avoid the activation of defenders sp3 with your sp3. Like I did in the video.

The bug is unnecessary for bg or wars it's benificial for questing. It can pretty much solo the whole game except for the nodes that prevent power gain and the one which has any sort of power sting "like the special detonate node which deducts 50% HP if same special is used in a row"
