User blog:Icchi/Dust uses

Dust obviously has many uses in RWBY world, We dont know yet If all tecnology is Powered by Dust, or if Dust is just one type of energy between many other, so i wont talk much about it.

Talking now about battle uses, i could see some main uses:

Dust Weapons: Some (or most) of the Weapons seems to be powered with Dust, like how crescent rose and Ember Celica change forms, but i cant see they becoming stronger, unless when they start to Shine (Weiss Finishing nove), so basically they are "normal" Weapons, until they power them with Dust and shine ... But other theory is: If Dust is a mineral, what if they can Forge Weapons using it ??

Dust Bullets: its fair to assume they use Dust to Create special Bullets or shells, like we saw Ruby and Yang, using them.

Dust Caster: basically Glenda and "Crimsom", they can use elemental Dust To cast those skills, using runes and maybe chants ... One curious fact is that, the Dust may became the "Skill" as We can see Crimson using her "Skill" Remnants To cast others.

Dust Empower: I dont Have better term to this skill, but until Now we could only see Crimsom, Adam and maybe Yang, to use Dust with their own bodies. Adam charge Dust power in his body (remember it Shines) to use his Finishing move, Crimsom Cast her "something" using her own body, and Yang become physically stronger.
