My new dervish

I would recommend getting Vital Boon and use it as your cover, expendable enchantment, so you can have a controllable heal when you get low on hp. Don't lose your enchantments right away, but instead whenever you need energy or can mostly benefit from it (gain energy or hp).

Also dunno why you have Sprint. The time I was in beginner island and while I bought some tomes, I liked using Whirling Charge from Wind Prayers. Yeah yeah, I know I told ya just about Vital Boon that is in Earth Prayers, but don't invest points in it, just Scythe, Myst and Wind.

You have also 5 attack skills which is a little overkill. Wild Blow is fine and all but I would use it only when facing annoying blocking enemies with stances, like later in Kourna or near the end of the campaign. Use quick recharging attack skills, such as Victorious Sweep (substitute for Twin Moon), Eremite's Attack or Mystic Sweep, and of course Pious Assault to have a controllable heal if you're using Vital Boon. I'm also not a big fan of Chilling Victory but each to their own I guess.

Get also a minor mysticism rune; the breakpoints of mysticism are in multiples of three, don't waste attribute points in it until you can afford reaching to these break points.

Also try to get an IAS (Increased Attack Speed skill); usually Heart of Fury for class purists like me, but it can also be Flail from your secondary. IAS's increase amazingly your damage output and is a must have for frontliners.

There are other people that may recommend you using tank skills such as Mystic Regeneration or Conviction, though I'm not a fan of neither.

Hope it helps . Victorious sweep looks good, however I like inflicting burning condition on my opponents, and it doesn't use an enchantment so that makes it hard to control. Eremite's doesn't look bad, but it doesn't make your hits that much more powerful, as the opponents have to actually be adjacent. I guess I can try it out, but with the strategy i described in my post, by the time I casted chilling victory (which does huge damage, btw), most of my enemies died at once. With what you described, it seems more like I'm killing them off 1 by 1.

And I only put those points into Mysticism because I had extra points that would fit into Scythe.

Also, how would frenzy or beserker stance work on a dervish?
Edit: Nevermind, definitely using Heart of Fury when I get to it. I guess one of the above two until then.
