more dmg from a dervish?
OctANE
i was just analyzing some dervish skills and just wandered how much more dmg can u get from a combination of Avatar of Lyssa, Aura of Holy Might and lil' push from Heart of Fury. i was just going to try it but i was thinking if the avatar will negate the holy dmg from the Alleg skill and if u have an opinion of it can u say a good build for the dervish for more dmg?

Avatar of Lyssa doesn't state it changes damage to any type, so there's no reason it would negate the holy damage.
As for a build, you're pretty much on track with Lyssa. Put the skills you have there with [skill]Eremite's Attack[/skill], [skill]Mystic Sweep[/skill] and [skill]Protector's strike[/skill] - time them on skill activations and the damage will be huge.

Wearying Strike is a good skill to bring too. It gives you weakness but it'd probably get quickly removed and it'll give your target Deep Wound.

Generally, you use that with AoM. I'd be more inclined to recommend Pious Assault if you want DW on a Lyssa build. (Yes, it does strip enchantments - so use it after Eternal Aura or something.)

with AoL and AoHM most of your swings in PvE will do above 100 damage. hits above 200 are not uncommon and Ive hit for 370 on a few undead.

Oh I was thinking of putting the skill on a hero bar so I didn't think about using Eternal Aura.

on a hero build you obviously dont use an avatar.

Derv heroes are generally bad except the D/N order thingy

ty for the ideas...atm i'm working with just AoB, Eternal Aura and Heart of Fury and after i've reached the first rank in alleg and got the skill i was wondering if i can get more dmg...because of the huge dmg from just AoB i finished Factions (doin just the primary quests and miss and doin some quest to help me get from lvl16 to 20) in just 8 hours...i'm thinking of getting more dmg...maybe i'll finish eotn in 10 hours :|

looks like u guys have something against AoB
 , i loved AoB cus of the armor u can be the tanker (in nm) and kept me alive for a long time...dont worry i never forget Eternal Aura when i have an avatar (sacred rule)...

No buff or update comes to mind. Just what made it better?
I see dan viewing the thread so I'll leave it to him to explain OP why tanking is bad etc etc etc

[[Pious Assault] did.
Though it's still utter shit in PvE. odly
[skill]Radiant Scythe[/skill] is good on a Lyssa build.
You might as well use that extra high energy you get from [Avatar of Lyssa] for something ;-).

How about you try it yourself. Lyssa's crazy dps is common knowledge. That's what i thought at least.

Yep I can agree to this. In fow most hits were 100-150, and undead definately 300+, it was one of the most fun things Iv ever done on the game.

If you really want to see big damage numbers take VoS, AoHM, IATS, EVSOH to the delesio seaboard mission and wack some of the bone minions there. I was critting (which you should get every time) for over 800 (with r6 in all the pve ranks).
Tender Care
A nice build for pve for dervish/monk i used to farm is a smiting build:
[vital boon] [mystic regeneration] [signet of mystic wrath] [retribution] [Strength of Honor] [Balthazar's spirit] [mystic sweep] [Reaper's sweep] looks a bit complicated to use but it's not, just make sure u don't run off with energy and it's done! |
