I'd like some feedback about the build I'm currently using in PvP. It's served me really well in RA and TA so far (well, got enough streaks in RA to make it into TA but got decimated second TA round by a SoM mes/Plague Sending necro/Poison-spreading ranger/para team lol).
I've tried a lot of builds and styles with the Dervish, as it's my personal favorite profession. Of late I haven't really been using Earth Prayers skills at all, because I feel it really helps me with DPS (not to mention energy management) if I can replace Conviction/Mystic Regen/Vital Boon and with more attacks and Mysticism skills; with a good monk (healing+condition removal) I find that I can steamroll through teams quite well. Then again, that could've just been luck/good monk/weak opponents,etc. so I'd like opinions.
**Disclaimer: I in no way claim to be an expert derv user/expert gw pvper. I've pvped but have no real experience w/ GvG, HA, HB. I'm willing to learn, though, so be courteous
***Here's the build: (I don't know how to post skills so I'll just type them out)
Skills:
Resurrection Signet
Faithful Intervention
Zealous Renewal
Heart of Fury
Zealous Sweep
Crippling Sweep
Lyssa's Assault
Reaper's Sweep [E]
Attributes:
Mysticism 12+1
Scythe Mastery 12+1
Equipment:
PvP Scythe with Perfect Sundering and Enchanting Mods and +15% w/Enchanted
Windwalker Insignias on Hood, Chest and Leggings
Sup. Vigor on Chest
Minor Myst. on Leggings and Minor Scythe Mast. on Hood
Radiant Insigs. and Attunements on Gauntlets/Feet.
A little basic? Yes, probably. Nevertheless I've found this build to be more effective than many other derv builds I've used (including the Wounding Strike/AoM builds) as long as I have a good monk backing me up. Plus (and I may be wrong here) I feel that this is an excellent build for people to get to know the dervish and the enchantment-micromanagement the class requires.
So, what do you guys think? Efficient as far as arena battles go? Or are there better options?
P.S. Sorry for the long read xX
