Default Fastest PvE killer?

I have been using the Crit Scythe build now for a little bit and with my heroes it seems to take down just about anything relatively easy. I was wondering are there other builds that are like this or even better for the sin?

try with strength of honor for even more rape :P. Sins got access to shadowform tanking, and call use save yourself daggers disgustingly well. Best in offense and defense when they want to excel in either.

In my opinion, on a sin, daggers>Scythe.

You
Jagged Strike, Fox Fangs, Death Blossom, Optional Elite (Flashing Blades, Skull crack, Locusts fury, whatever), Asuran Scan, Save Yourselves, Critical Eye, and Critical Agility

Bring a Rt/Mo.

Run SoS, Spirit Siphon, Bloodsong, splinter weapon, Judge's Insight, Strength Of Honor, Flesh Of Flesh, and an optional, ancestor's rage is good.

12+1+1 channeling
10 Smiting
8 Spawn


Scythes are amazing in PvE don't get me wrong, but I find because enemies aren't always buddy buddy close, the fast single target damage from a buffed daggers beats it, and when your dual attack does more damage than two discord casts you know it's better.

/agree with Eragon

I run a typical AP caller most times followed by YMLaD and Finish Him with Discord team. 90% of the time I barely get a chance to use the 3rd skill, much less the 4th and on before the target is dropped.

I run Locusts fury with Mark of Pain...kind of demolishes mobs really quick. Just fill in random skills for the rest of the bar. IAS is recommended

I have a spirit spamming build with minions that is just as good if not better than discord, guild leader has made it and is always making adjustments to it, but the same applies with it.. i literally walk up to the thing, depends if i call the target or not and by the time i run up they are gone ha

I am using your average Blossom build (with Wastrel's to get in fast) and I am really beginning to notice that even with just one physical in the team, two Splinter sources are a must.

I always try to fit GDW into my team somewhere if possible, which is so much better than Splinter. Nightmare and Warmonger weapons are nice also for getting rid of monks, but I generally have daze/GDW knocks them down.

CritScythe + SoH + Asuran Scan ( + AoHM if you dont have Barbs+MoP ) is bloody brutal indeed . Add weaken armor for HM and some Wep Spell and pretty much thats it.
