So i was screwing around in AB a couple of nights ago with a Burning Speed and Twin Moon Sweep build which caught a lot of people off guard granted they probably weren't the best players in world but I was extremely surprised that no one caught on maybe because they saw the D/E and automatically thought Obsidian Tank. But it worked even better if i waited to get hit with an Ele spell then cast it people really didn't notice the burning it causes and run away.
So my reasoning behind this wacky build is as follows.....Burning Speed at 7 Fire Magic does 6 seconds of burning. I don't know about you guys but to me thats a whole lot of burning, seeing as how the one skill that does 4 of burning with 13 into Mysticism is Heart of Holy Flame and I really dislike that skill.
So the skill bar i was just screwing around so i don't remember the exact build but it was something like and if my math is off the attribute points i apologize
Attributes:
Mysticism:9
Earth:9
Scythe: 14
Fire: 7 or 8
Skills:
Faithful Intervention
Mystic Regen
Vital Boon
Burning Speed
Wounding Strike
Mystic Sweep
Victorious Sweep
Twin Moon Sweep <----- or Res Sig.....but you don't really need a Res in AB
I'm also thinking of taking out some thing to use Flame Djinn's Haste some where in there as quick attack / Crap I need to get hell out of there! skill.
So after all that here is my question to you folks.....is a build like this even viable or am I just talking out my anus? Help and Input would be very appreciated.
D/E Molotv Cocktail Build....Maybe??

I cant stress this enough:
YOU NEED HEART OF FURY
Before anyone in this board goes making a Dervish build (unless it's a very very specific build), CHECK IF YOU HAVE HEART OF FURY (or equivalent).
For start, i hope this helped. After a bit more math (yes math is important) and experience, you will discover other things like, Watchful Intervention>Faithful Intervention.

If I thought heart of fury would have fit into this build i would have put in there....and i agree with you HoF is bad ass skill that I use in almost every other build I have, I didn't see the need for it in this build.
Second this is already and energy intensive build...I would think having to reply Watchful Intervention every 60 seconds or when some one else's health dips below 25% is even more taxing on energy with 3 10en skills already in the bar but i could be wrong I'm open to try anything.
And i do apologize for not putting up an explanation of what I was doing with this build it's mainly to cause burning and get off a quick spike with Wounding Strike, Mystic Sweep and followed by Victorious Sweep for a quick heal, if everything goes right, you should be able to cast Burning Speed one more time and rend it immediately with Twin Moon Sweep to get the double attack, along with an extra 6 seconds of burning and a second heal from it.
Lastly, please do not assume you know my level of experience and next time please read the entire post and not just skill's listed. Your comment was neither helpful nor did it serve a constructive purpose. I said my math is off because like i stated I was just screwing around in AB and second unlike l33t hAx0r players such as your self I don't have the time to memorize the amount of attribute points it takes to raise one attribute to the next level after the initial investment.

Yes im Heart of Fury addict!
Quote: I didn't see the need for it in this build. There is no need for a Dervish build without Heart of Fury, either

Was that so hard. To give an explanation as to why one should use a skill instead of another instead of going OMGWTFBBQ quit now noob.......|

My comment served a destructive purpose. Builds without Heart of Fury should be destroyed Quote:
Never said I wasn't going to try it, I said when I put the build together It was my deduction that I didn't need it.

Well you know what happens when you assume. Quote:
I know, sorry. It happens when i type posts after midnight, and then im too grumpy as well.
Anyway, if you're interested in Faithful vs Watchful discussion, i had a bit longer debate on that with someone else in this forum, see if you can find it. Am too tired to go through all that again If you manage to find the thread and posts referring to that, you will get in-depth analysis of pros and cons. In short, Watchful by a large margin wins over Faithful.Quote:
I have seen many build do fine with out HoF
In PvP, a build i would use has to be both fun and have the edge, or just have the edge. Im not satisfied with mediocre if it can be better. | Sure you can always say HoF is just my opinion, but trust me im not saying it just like that. And i dont lose anything if u dont use HoF, so it's up to you Quote:
