(i'll copy paste this here as well)



D/Mo

15 Mysticism
12 Scythe (but can be 14, another sup rune wont hurt much at all)
8 Protection Prayers

(The rest is pretty much obvious; two runes of Attunement, Radiant insignia... 20% longer enchantments on scythe etc.)

Reversal of Fortune
Protection Spirit
Crippling Sweep (Victorious Sweep for PvE)
Chilling Victory
Heart of Fury
Mending Touch (can be replaced with sth else in PvE)
Avatar of Dwayna [E]
Rez



Prot spirit can be kept on more or less all the time. It works wonders in high end pve. I also keep watching party box to drop it on any ally who needs it (same with RoF).
Chilling Victory does cold dmg even when you're blind. If you think this skill is only good in PvE and not in RA, think again. I was totally suprised how many people cluster there, letting the scythe smack like 2-3 of them plus their spirits if any.
Most battles in RA will usually be over by the time Dwayna expires. Yes, you're thinking again, no one is that stupid to cast hexes on you, since you can spam RoF and other skills. Wrong. Hardly anyone knows what this skill does.

Spamming RoF while under Prot spirit and Dwayna, does wonders. If someone is attacking you (which is especially frequent in PvE) you get 100 heal + you reduce 50dmg +15hp from mysticism = 165hp heal every 2sec for free. I cant possibly imagine why someone will want a warrior tank. Yes i had monsters using their disenchants on me, but it didnt hurt me since i spammed prot spirit back on.


ps: "RA" means it works in Fort Aspenwood too, and alike arenas.

I would NEVER depend on an avatar in any type of pvp. You don't need an avatar to be a good tank. I don't use one and yday in FA it took 3 sins to take me down. I tried avatars and when they wear off and your build is built around it..you go down. I 1v1 another "undefeated" derv who used one, it was ez to tank him till his avatar ran out and his winning streak stopped there. For pve though this may work.

ive used a very similar build in pve... gotta love the RoF possibilities

and whoever said avatars are no good... theres practically no other dervish elites out there that i would wanna take. not even reapers. i think that reapers is far inferior to WS.

"This is no build for noobs". Yeah, you can go use Mending.

The moral of this story therefore is: Margaritas ante porcos.
