I'm pretty curious about these builds. Earlier today in TA I came across a team that had two 105 HP D/Mo's, with builds that seemed incredible to me because they were unkillable, my team resigned after about 20 minutes of hammering away on them. I was wondering if anyone would know what skill set would be used with these particular builds.

plus some other enchants and attack skills of choice. the problem with this is, notice that your team went 20 minutes before giving up? the build didnt do good, they just grief'd until you gave up of boredom. see E/D Geo Tanks. but if you want a counter, spammable enchant removal (corrupt enchantment) or mass removal (rend enchantment) stomp these kind of tanking builds. especially something as fragile as 130 derv.

to defeat a build like this you have to play smarter than a PvE mob. bring enchantment removal, KDs and interrupts.

rending touch works, just wait for them to use prot spirit.

Anet should just nerf Mystic Regeneration, increase recharge time or something. It’s ridicules how every dervish, eles and nerocs abuse this skill.

Actually forget I said that. ANY KIND of enchantment removal=dead. Just wait till he casts PS, remove it, and tadaa, he's a dude with 130 life that gets hit normally.

Using corrupt enhance yields by far the most funny results.
The only problem the fun lasts only 2-3 seconds on of those clowns.

These are kinda useless except in PvE for farming, whilst usable in PvP not reccomended unless you have alot of experiance using one although i'm not sure what build the ones you faced could have been i've taken on alot of them and none have really been able to last a long time in PvP.

No, cripple is a counter vs. 130 dervs. Cripple 'em and they'll limp around slowly, completely harmless.

I love these 130 guys in AB...
Easy faction!

If you cast Rend right after he casts Protective Spirit, you'll have nearly 5 seconds to do 130 damage. Considering a simple Lighting Orb + Lightning Strike does more than 130 damage, I don't think you'll have any trouble.

Those 130 Dervishes were idiotic. If you want to try and run a 130 Dervish build, what is Vow of Silence there for? No spells will touch you! With Mystic Regeneration and Prot Spirit, you would really be invincible. Adding Fleeting Stability and Signet of Pious Light (to end it before it lasts its full duration) will protect against knockdowns. That's a true invincible Dervish. You've evidently never played a ranger with broadhead arrow.
If pathetically easy to interrupt mystic regeneration if the target's dazed and being attacked. Have a pet or an Assassin attack him and you're guaranteed to interrupt every single spell.
Hell, with that combo I've seen glyph of sacrifice'd spells being interrupted.
