General

Dust of Appearance (also known as Dust) is a basic item purchasable from the Consumables section in the Home Shop. Dust is used to reveal invisible units. It is fully shareable and stacks with itself in the inventory.

Ability

Hero Counters

This item can also be used against Weaver, but can be ineffective due to his ultimate Time Lapse, which can remove the reveal debuff.
The same situation also applies to Slark, who can remove the reveal debuff by purging it with his Dark Pact ability. Some heroes may also use a Diffusal Blade to remove the dust.
