For a year I've read on this fourm that "Desolation" sucks and is just for showing off to noobs at Fort Charles. However, I've never heard of anyone putting 5 skill points in it and seeing what it does.

One of my characters has 5 points in Desolation....I can wipe out the entire army of soldiers on the Kings Head open field in one shot. However, do I use this often....no. If you were you use this in Tormenta you had better have a healer or switch to the Voodoo Doll to cast Life Drain.
