As you guess, this build is centered around full out scythe damage, and a massive condition spam while you're still able to keep your health up. This is pretty much a pvp build, and somewhat similar to the A/N virulence assassin build.
Attributes:
Death Magic 12
Scythe Mastery 10+1
Mysticism 8+1+1
Skills:
Victorious Sweep
Crippling Sweep
Wearing Strike
Virulence E
Taste of Pain
Plague Touch
Faithful Intervention
Res Sig
The exact order of what to use is very interchangeable, as most of these skills can spread conditions easily. The beginning should obviously be crippling though, and use taste of pain or victorious sweep when you're low. Then use plague touch after wearing strike.
For the most part, I think the build is complete
post any ideas on how to run the build exactly you may have and have fun!
again, the template is on here....
D/N Virulence Condit Spam

jesh
Raise scythe to 12 to hit 100% damage, at least.
Drop Mysticism to 9, you'll still get the same amount of energy back.
Then tell me why you want to use Virulence so much on a class that can already cause most of those conditions.

given they can cause conditions alone, but the conditions are somewhat limited, if you haven't realized, poison and disease are sorta left out of the dervish's condition "area" :P
Saider maul
1 note. never run disease without bringing a tainted ally with you.

Honestly if you want to use virulence its better to have it on another teammate. No use in wasting your dervish elite (which are major powerhouses) for a sub par virulence.
Thanato
Just to add to Twicky kid's suggestion, apart from the inherent benefit of conditions, you don't have Armor of Sanctity to benefit even more from it.
