WTH does this have to do with a mesmer?

But seriously, i would go to the campfire and post in the DERVISH forum if you are looking for a specific build. Otherwise id just say get a decent scythe max armor with full survivor insignias. For a starter derv you cant go wrong packing a lot of enchants with [mystic regeneration] but when you get further you will want to evolve your bar a bit. I assume you are talking about doing it in Normal Mode. Where it really doesnt matter what you run in NM all you have to do is bang on your keyboard at random and you beat NM.

Done.

[JUNK]

Don't go for the survivor title.
Learn from your failure.

There really isn't much to say beyond that when you don't have anything specific to ask or aren't lvl20.

Don't hang around the forum, start killing some plants and insects. Don't forget to talk to guys/gals at the shrines, they give you "bounty" or rewards points to advance in your sunspears title. catch a taxi to the dock for max armor. should not cost more then 500g sometime there are free rides. look for exclamations marks. And don't talk to strangers :P

and Wintersday 2008 is just around the corner! try to get to Lion's arch for the hat, but if you already have a prophecies character that has Lion's arch on the map , you should not worry, because now we have the hat guy!

Look at the edit time of the OP's post. 2:10am (atleast on mine) 19 minutes AFTER the first post. OP didn't specify his profession at first so the first poster took a guess.

But yes, @OP, what others have said. Check the dervish forums for builds and tips that would be your best bet.

Actually the original post was mesmer, not dervish. He changed it after I posted. Way to be observant, jackhole.

lol daze just got owned.
Dervish...scythes are really strong so abuse their ability to atk 3 at once. Scythe attacks like Mystic/Eremites Sweep can be used right after your auto attack for an artificial IAS, while Heart of Fury(mysticism) gives you IAS. Get Sunspear skill Eternal Aura, very very nice...especially for maintaining your elite skill Avatars...
Basically stack a few good enchants(including Heart of Fury), spam scythe attacks, your elite skill should be either a scythe attack or an avatar.

Dervish is one of my favorites, second(well third) in fun-ness only to my sin and ele. GL and HF!
