Basically figured it might be fun to run some crazy aoe build.
Not sure how viable this would be in HM though..

Basic usage is, Vow of Strength, Spacebar your opponent, spam Heart of Fury whenever it's up, and just use your other Dervish enchants for AoE damage as they become available.
Veil of thorns and Mirage Cloak should provide some protection from melee and magic.
(forgot to place runes, so scythe mastery is still at 11 (+1 with generic scythe pvp headpiece))
Feedback would be appreciated :-)

Why not mystic sandstorm? You can feed the adrenaline super easily. You have 0 adrenaline skills on that bar other than Heart of Fury so SY! or Mystic sandstorm. I'd definitely drop Veil of thorns.
I also don't like Dust cloak and Sand shards on the same bar since you end up with 4 flash enchants. Since your bar doesn't rely on teardowns I'd keep Sand shards and ditch Dust Cloak. Dust cloak is only good for teardowns, 1x 30 earth damage and 3s blind every 30 seconds is utterly tripe: you could spam Banishing strike and get 10x damage basically. With the short recharge stuff gone you don't need Mysticism that high so you can pump earth prayers for more damage from Vow of strength. As long as you push 10 seconds on Zealous Renewal, there's nothing wrong with dropping Mysticism a few points.
4*1.5 attack rate=6 seconds, so Sand shards isn't that great, really. It's even worse when you have an IAS. Keep in mind it's armor reduced damage.
I'd tweak it like so:
11+1+1 scythe
11+1 earth
8+1 mysticism
Vow of strength
Heart of fury
Aura slicer
Farmer's Scythe/Radiant Scythe (+18 or +27 damage) ... Mystic Sweep's +16 is not that viable since .75*1.5=1.125seconds so you save 1/8 second.
Mystic Sandstorm
Zealous Renewal
Mirage Cloak
Sand Shards

About Mirage Cloak: I don't know the point of having a short duration 72% block on a melee character already pushing 90 [email protected] mysticism when you run windwalker's. But if you feel that 6 second block is valuable, more power to you. It's certainly not worth the energy for 30ish earth damage.
I'd rather put a cheap Mystic Vigor,Vital Boon, Armor of Sanctity, Eremite's Zeal or something else useful and cheap in there to feed the windwalker armor insignia. You can get +25health/attack on Mystic Vigor already since you run 3 enchants and more energy management from Eremite's Zeal is always good.
Feb 19th EDIT: Mystic Sandstorm causes scatter so don't use it. You're better off with a scythe attack since [email protected] x6 = 108, 216 vs attacking every 8 seconds , before armor reductions, is rather bad.

Aye, I just figured I'd slap together something with loads of AoE to see what would happen.. Turns out mobs scatter too much with this build as well. 
I'll be sure to try out the build you posted, as for Mirage Cloak.. Limited skills unlocked for my Dervish.

I can't use trytophan signet on a hero, but you can try that instead of mirage cloak. That or something with cripple.

I've been playing with it a bit also, and it gets a lot of damage I must say, I don't know if you have the skills but maybe you will like putting there some PVE skills as they can increase you attack speed and add more to the aoe damage combined with splinter.
