I just got an Envoy scythe and was going to use it in PvP but I was wondering if any Pvp dervish players could tell what the best mods are. I was thinking to get 3 scythes. One Vampiric, a Sundering and a Furious.

Also do I go for 30hp, +5 Armor or 20% Enchantments????

I have played some pvp on my dervish, but I am by no means any good

That said, I never found myself in need of a furious mod. Usually AoB and Onslaught give you extra adrenaline as it is, and if I run a different elite, I usually switch to lower adren cost skills. You will be sitting on a vamp scythe most of the time, switching out of it when needed to a sundering (blind, blurred vision) or a shield set (when kiting).
I only used 20% enchantments when I ran EDA or Onslaught. But you switch out of it after casting the enchantment you want to last longer. I usually take a +30hp mod, but in the current flux I would think +5 armor is more useful.

As you can see, what you need is dependant on your build and the situation you are in^^

I also would like to know what others think of the +30hp vs +5 armor in general (so outside the current flux). I know this depends on the situation as well, but which is generally most useful?

I use a vamp/zealous/elemental, with a shield set & a staff set to swap, especially when using onslaught. Staff is modded with +5e/20% enchants.

Vamp for damage, zealous when you need a boost, elemental vs warriors, staff when you're running between areas with no threat of being hit any damage.

+5 armor vs 30hp is preference. I usually stick to +30hp because that's what I'm using to running, though I'd not be surprised if +5 turned out to be better.
