Dervish Builds[edit]
With Dervish being my favorite class, I have ALOT of builds for them. Some I use, some I haven't gotten around to testing.
D/W/Any Wounding Strike[edit]
Wounding Strike | Reap Impurities | Whirlwind Attack | Pious Fury | Rending Aura | Zealous Renewal | Lyssa's Haste | Optional |
Template Code: OgGjwmpsaSAYOX7gihlbjboXAA
Fun build to play with, supports Discordway with conditions and a hex if you bring Asuran Scan. I have a variant build using Necro as a secondary with the skill Necrosis but I haven't gotten around to using it yet.
Optionals:
Asuran Scan - Never miss and DP removal to keep you in missions/vq's
Light of Deldrimor - Nice, cheap AoE holy damage and find hidden objects
Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support - Can be helpful but I stopped using it due to high energy cost
Ebon Battle Standard of Honor - Similar to EVAS, useful but high energy cost, consider zealous scythe if you use either of these.
Optional - If I'm skill capping I'll drop whirlwind for a Signet of Capture, likewise if I'm doing lightbringer missions I'll drop it for another PvE skill. Whirlwind is fun but I don't always find myself using it.
D/Any EDA PvE[edit]
Radiant Scythe | Chilling Victory | Heart of Fury | Staggering Force | Ebon Dust Aura | Veil of Thorns | Mystic Regeneration | Optional |
Template Code: OgCjwmp8aOc/Bs4W7Cu72sXAA
After growing bored with Wounding Strike, I started using this. Fairly balanced build, I've been helping my wife on her new account so I haven't used it in HM yet. In NM it doesn't seem to build adrenaline fast enough, I'll modify it if I experience the same in HM. I am a big fan of Sundering but I find myself switching to Zealous with this build.
Optionals:
Optional - Any PvE-Only skill can be worked into this slot, Asuran Scan, LoD, Lightbringer, etc.
D/A Dagger Spam[edit]
Zealous Vow | Jagged Strike | Fox Fangs | Death Blossom | Heart of Fury | Brawling Headbutt | Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support | "You Move Like a Dwarf!" |
Template Code: OgejwmqZHThbOMMMHMibni7i2k
For when you're bored with your Dervish but dread working on another toon. I think zealous daggers worked best here.
Optionals:
Unsuspecting Strike - Someone suggested I switch out the standard dagger spam for these 2 on my sin, I would assume they would work for this build as well.
Wild Strike
D/Any Cheap Party Healer[edit]
Avatar of Dwayna | Whirling Charge | Fleeting Stability | Mirage Cloak | Shield of Force | Harrier's Haste | Radiant Scythe | Crippling Victory |
Template Code: OgCiwypM9ehgpexdlJiux9NGC
For when you're bored and you want to let your hero's do all the work. I'm sort of ashamed that I've used this before but it's nice if your hung over, stand in the back or upfront, spam your enchants on recharge, great for keeping minions alive, maintain AoD as usual. I never have--and never would--run this build in HM.
