You shall not pass?

While the tooltip as of 14/06 doesn't describe the duration, this is clearly one of the most op talents ever to defend a flag in a battleground or to block the way in a narrow space.

The only place where i can't see this being of any use is Silvershard mines for obvious reasons, unless the damage is higher than i thought and the duration is shorter, then it would be perfect to put into a cart's path to disperse the enemy team.

Fel Lord's strike ability has a 3 second cooldown and a 1.3 second cast time and its self cast in 6 yard area around him, basicly only way to get him to proc his attack is to either sit on a flag or have your enemy be stupid enough to walk to Fel Guard and stay still for 1.5 seconds in a small area around him for the effect to take place

The summoned Fel Lord attacks with Fel Cleave and Smoke Bomb.

Smoke Bomb, when used, reduces the chance to hit any targets within its radius by 25%. This is effectively a ~~melee-only~~ version of a Demon Hunter's Darkness, offering an additional 25% chance to avoid ~~melee~~ attacks (while Darkness offers a 20% chance to avoid any attack).

Because of this, the Call Fel Lord Honor Talent can also be viewed as somewhat of a defensive talent; while the Fel Lord is present, running into his attack area will not only force any ~~melee~~ players on you to enter his range and eat the damage/stun, but will also give you an increased chance to avoid their attacks. As this information is not currently present on the ability tooltip, many Warlocks may not be aware of this.

UPDATE:
As you can see above, I have crossed out any references to the Smoke Bomb ability offering additional defense against only melee attackers; although I and others may have assumed the 25% miss chance was only against melee attacks, after reviewing the ability I've confirmed that it also applies to spells. This means that standing inside the Smoke Bomb area will grant you a 25% chance to avoid ANY enemy abilities, whether they are melee attacks or spells. It's not only like Darkness, it's actually 5% better (and that's not even taking the fact that it also does damage into consideration!).

For clarification, as long as YOU are within the cloud, you will have the 25% extra avoidance; the attacker does not need to be within the cloud. This means that standing in the cloud will still give you a 25% chance to avoid a spell cast on you by a Mage that is not within the cloud.

How much damage can Fel Lord do in 930 ilvl?

There is a macro that could drop Fel Lord on top of the player, which would function as a counter against melee players in pvp.
