If you wanna run a Mystic Regen build, you attributes should be 12+1+1~3 scythe, 10+2 myst, 8 earth. Look for important breakpoints, get to them, and stop investing points (besides the main damage attribute). Mystic Regen needs 8 earth prayers for +3, and mysticism should always be on a multiple of 3.

For PvE (and most PvP) Reaper's isn't great. [wiki]Wounding Strike[/wiki] is better for a scythe elite, and [wiki]Avatar of Melandru[/wiki] or [wiki]Avatar of Dwayna[/wiki] work well too. There's also some prot stuff worth looking into, but I've never really used it enough to say what works well. Try this.

I like the simplicity of it, new players wouldn't be afraid to run this build much. Only one problem I can see it the enchantment management and essence bond alone isn't very useful, rather bring balthazar spirit along with it. However if you plan on going through teams I think both skills should be avoided due to the fact that the agro won't always be on you.

However all over, I think it is very useful build for new players to get a good hang of what the dervish is about. I salute.

I think that you should try and move your attributes around a little, and pump your Scythe mastery up a little higher. I don't know if you're using a Sup Scythe run, if not, I would suggest it. But like hondy said, the build is very simple and new players should definately try it.

Alright thx guys for the suggestions
i do have a sup scythe and i only use essence bond for energy because it doees help.
Also I dont know why people are hating on reapers sweep, its pretty much like eviscerate except does more damge but the enemy need to be below 50 health to do the deep wound.
Well anyway thx again for the help
