Speaking from experience most variations of Sycthe-Sin are absolutely brutal (in both PvE and PvP)

I personally prefer wounding strike, malicious, mystic & eremite's as an attack chain. But to each his/her own, no matter what set of attacks you bring you're going to cut 'em down like mad.

Something is overpowered in PvE? I'm sure the devs will get right on that, expect a nerf by next week. /joke

You need Aura of Holy Might in that build. Its actually bugged to add 41%...74% damage. Getting 130ish damage per hit without even using skills is great, and the damage type is changed to holy so you bypass special resistances along with WTFPWNING undead.

Critical hit skills like Way of the Master, Critical Eye, etc. Do stack to improve critical hit rate.

You mean as a factor, as an exponent it would be too fantastic. As far as I can recall they just stack as a sum.

An assassin with a scythe is just as retarded as a ranger with a hammer, I wont cry if they get nerfed.

To get abused? Or to synergise with the Primary?

Because broken things should be hit with a stick. Beaten down until it's beyond useless.

put in wounding strike in place of your elite. just try it please, you'll still have a 70-80 % crit rate, and AoE deep wound and bleeding are better than 20% crit chance. Try it! If you think I'm wrong, go back to what you were using.

No one wants sins nerfed out of existance, ok well some do.

But tbh, sins shouldnt be using scythes, thier class design wasnt for flag stand spiking in gvg, or 8v8 play in heroes ascent. They are solo gankers and small scrimmages.
