Reap Impurities: The trade off is too much for just one strike of adrenaline. It should at least keeps it's + damage.

Reaper Sweep: Why on earth are you removing the only KD for the derv, unlike you think it does have synergy with flash enchantments. It could use a split for PvE giving it a more useful function but not like that. Damysticreaper 17:23, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

Cold and Earth damage will NEVER be armor ignoring, otherwise it wouldn't be Cold and Earth damage. And I believe that those skills fit their names quite well. 'Chilling Victory' does 'cold' damage. 'Sand Shards' does 'earth' damage. Reap Impurities shouldnt remove a condition.... something like...

4 Adrenaline0 Recharge time. This attack deals +1...8...10 damage. If target foes is suffering from a condition, deal an additional 10...14...15 damage. And Reaper's Sweep was better the way it was before this update. by a lot.. || DarkMugen 20:52, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

It seems like some people still fail to understand why Reaper Sweep has been overhauled to such an extend. The reason is called Wounding Strike. The old version of RS focused around damage and a deep wound, however it was completly inferior in function and playability compared to WS even with the large damage. If it is turned into a Deep Wound skill again no one will take it because it does not fit the play style and it's function will still be completly inferior to WS. Thats why Reaper Sweep has been changed so drasticly, if you guys want it to be better make a suggestion worth of it's elite status and NOT having to compete in function with Wounding Strike.

I agree with your suggestion for Reaper's Sweep; I'm quite disappointed in its new form, which frankly seems like a misguided attempt to give Dervishes their own Eviscerate. As for Ebon Dust Aura, the fact that one of the best builds around right now is centered around this build should give the impression that this skill is not restricted 'enough'. By removing the prerequisite on the weapon, Ebon Dust Aura could be wielded with a normal weapon set, a Vampiric or Zealous set - and though the Earth damage on this skill would at least restrict conjure stacking, the current incarnation does that fine. -- Oiseau | User Oiseau Melandru.jpg 22:24, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
