I think the only thing I can gripe about is Signet of Pious Light having a recharge on it. I wish there were a few more viable way to strip enchantments other then just scythe attacks. :/

I want to try the other elites but...I just can't find it in myself to take avatar of lyssa off my bar. Balthazars rage going off every 5 seconds, really eases any issue with adrenaline and the 3/5th uptime for burning is nice.

holy cow, I'm kinda dizzy after reading all that. What I gather has happened,
-an army of infinite spirits and super damage
-infinite summon army
-faster better 100b with vos
-rangers got gimped, the scythes on my war and sin are now worthless
-So y'all need to hide your kids, hide your wife, and hide your husband cause them dervs rapin' everybody out here in pvp. It's not safe anymore. Men in dresses are prowling around the neighborhood.
-Dervs are even faster runners now
-Some /death trickery is happening
-It has officially become harder to lose in pve than win now with the buh buff
-an army of infinite spirits and super damage
-infinite summon army

*And so the QQing about nerfed skills begin.*
A skill that removes DP?
apart from Spirit form in UW, Thats new,but oh so useless...
Sure, +75% more damage with your attacks seems rather OP, but it wasnt.
Instead, why not nerf it just a tad bit, i.e:
Or eaven lower the additional +% damage.
This skill is at the moment as efficient as an Honeycomb,And the only people that is going to benefit from it is bad wammos.
So, what do you think?

No this isn't a Q.QIng thread about the Dervish Update Infact i love Alot of the Changes they did to make dervish More interesting to Play such as perma Avatar without Eternal Aura but even still Eternal Aura is rather Useful.
But there are a Few things that they Have changed i Wished they Didn't for example such as Ermite's Attack Or is it that i just Havn't messed around with the Dervish Builds yet?
Azuran Scan is another Example But why did they Change BuH+Intensity?
Well the Discussion is:
What Skill had you wished they didnt Change? And why?

BUH+Intensity was basically a stealth nerf to speedclears

Ugh I don't have onslaught, feel too lazy to capture it, hows the adrenaline gain on that thing?

I like what they did with Mystic Twister and Mystic Sandstorm! I'm looking forward to going out and playing with them. Making Heart of Fury a 4-adrenaline IAS stance was a great change, also. Nice update, I think!
Also, obligatory QQ about the BUH bug abuse posts in this thread. Split 'em out, pls?

The change to Body Blow was kind of a surprise change, but after running it on my new W/D a bit, I kinda found out why.

Wow this update came faster that i thought. lots of reading for me but Asura Scan is a shock ill better use my 10 stacks candy cane i have. By Urial's Hammer is a skill i never have to use again i see. But happy with the derv update. The Avatars are fun to use now.
The update did not change much for me but thought the smite and imba para had a little fix coming with this build but maybe later.

"Vow of Strength: increased recharge to 20 seconds; changed functionality to: "Elite Enchantment Spell. For 15 seconds, whenever you attack a foe with your scythe, you deal 10...25 slashing damage to all adjacent foes."
thats just 100 blades...lazy redesign.

An 'of enchanting' wep doesn't effect the flash enchantments, is this how its supposed to be?

Aww, BuH isn't affected by Vocal was Sogolon...
edit: Also, Eternal Aura doesn't resurrect you if you die from saccing.

roughly 150% increase in dervish enchantments from Extend Enchantments spell. thinking combine that with Mirage Cloak for some sort of perma.
Ext. Enchantments, Mirage Cloak, Dusk Cloak, Mystic Sandstorm, Balth Spirit, SpellBreaker

When i've seen the list of the skils changed, and the new a-scan and buh, i was able to said only...."OMFG".
Well, at least i haven't to re-learn to play derv, cause mine is one week old.

Dervish hero needs some AI improvements with the Flash Enchantments. I can fill half their bar with flash enchantments and watch them use a teardown skill with nothing up.

Elite Flash Enchantment Spell. (20 seconds.) Inflicts Crippled condition (3...13...15 seconds) with your attack skills. No effect unless wielding a cold weapon.
This on ranger = bb Crippling Shot.

Another update that strikes even more the ele in hm.
No more damage buff from buh, intensity ends after you casted 1 spell...
So now the poor ele stay in glyph of elemental power and ebon ward...
I will need to test something cause atm I think intensity is actually better for another class then for ele, maybe for an secondary if u are an ele.

Interesting indeed; I can deifnitely see some dervishes in my future once 7-hero parties land - group healing N/Rt + group healing Dwaynan dervishes... 
So many fun-sounding styles though; I suspect I'll try all out AoE on my actual dervish character.

Woah... I had to make a cafe mocha to drink while reading through the update. So many new skill descriptions to process--I'm suffering from skill indigestion. It'll be exciting experimenting with the new combinations. It's like playing an entirely new class--exciting times ahead!

ok, this time it's really time to say good bye GW. For the love of god, who the hell decided to kill Asuran Scan? And: WHY did he decide to do that? There was absolutely no reason to do that. Can somebody explain to me how warriors, assassins and especially rangers are supposed to deal damage in hard mode now?
The devs must have really lost their freakin' mind this time.
I was really looking forward to the FB-Update and Winds of Change. But both are dead now for me. Congratulations to the people responsible for this update, once again another player less and a dead account more. I'm done with guild wars.
Thanks A-Net

Anyway, the only problem I see is the condi-spam and perma-avatars. Flashments are fine and needed, and adrenaline is a great way to balance attack skills.
I'd like to point out that Flashments will stop your movement if you hit are moving towards an ally or item, such as an NPC and a flagstand. I don't know if this was intended, but could be worth the look at.

Does anyone else agree that Sand Shards should no longer cause scatter? For convenience I will list the skill description:
"For 30 seconds, the next 1...5 times you hit with a scythe, all other adjacent foes take 10...60 earth damage."

Love a good update and the passion and inventiveness it stimulates.
There will always be those that just rail against change because it impacted a cookie cutter build they ran. Some will weep and moan and stay in bed, and others will get up and go to work and learn to adapt to what comes their way.
Thanks for the update Anet - and keep them coming.

Come on those who think Asuran scan and BUH got hit hard. We all know the PVE skills are OP and these two combined give insane damage buffs.
