scythe 16
tactics 12
wind 4

steady stance warrior bar, with derv primary and a scythe. spam aoe conditions and energy denial. ridiculous scythe damage, especially on crit. works best with sundering. featherfoot grace is a nice speed boost and condition remover and it stacks with steady stance cuz it's an enchantment.

i have question tho, is this more damaging than a W/D with 12 scythe and 16 tactics? i think it is...

oh i just realized, [skill]drunken blow[/skill] and [skill]desperation blow[/skill] at 12 tactics both have more +damage than ANY scythe attack at 16 scythe mastery. imagine that.

FM kinda blows in PvE. I'd replace it with Watch Yourself.
Also Featherfoot sucks: Its 9 seconds of condition reduction for 10 energy. I realize you want at least one dervish skill, but thats not the right one. Maybe replace it with something energy-intensive, since you basically gain 1 energy per attack, and the cost of Steady with 4m pips of energy regen is ridiculous?
Other than that, it's fun and pretty effective, and it does what dervishes are supposed to do, nuking PBAoE.

I really like the idea, but in PvE watch yourself will be more effective.
