Holy...

Maybe I should hurry up and beat EotN with my Derv now before this hits just so I don't have to relearn the entire class.

Increased emphasis on inflicting conditions... hopefully not at the expense of decreased direct damage, for PvE that is. I'm not a PvPer, but somehow I'd really like to see how this new Dervish aquits itself in non-faceroll game modes.

Sounds quite good to me, I may actually have to delete a char and roll a new Dervish.

My main character is a dervish, and even though I don't play anymore, I might return just to see if those (big)changes will actually work. If it is as Stumme said I'll probably enjoy this new style for the profession.

they... say... how far they are???
wow, this is real nice

i'm gonna try to get a draconic scythe later on, so my derv may see the light of GW again

its a real surprise that we get to see this (both derv update preview and info about how far % they are)

and from what i read, i'll use my derv more often not long from now

derv being new AND having new mechanics, yay

Hehe, enchantments that work like stances. I think this had actually been suggested by me before. Having to stop chasing a kiting guy to reapply an enchant really prevents Dervs from being effective melee classes in PvP.

From first skimming : instant cast enchant, more condition (an old dervish theme, for those who remember the very-early NF days) and some mecanics "borrowed" from the various gods (classes)... interesting!

added :I hope some of those changes make it into PvP (expecially flahs enchants)

Flash Enchantments and Mysticism

A bigger mechanic change than the avatar skills is the addition of a new type of enchantment. Flash enchantments are spells that can be cast instantly and will not stop your movement if you are running.

I would love to see this idea used for other classes aswell.
