i just started playing the dervish recently and i don't feel like im playing the class to its ful extent. This is my build:

D/Me ( I don't think that i made a very good choice with my secondary i just thought that since the only dervishes i saw were D/Mo I wanted to be different)

scythe mastery- 10+1+1
earth prayers- 10
mysticism- 10+1

staggering force
vital boon
watchful intervention
heart of fury
twin moon sweep
chilling victory
energy tap
sunspear rebirth sig

any comments or critisisms are accepted thanks for the input

How far are you into the game?

If you just started playing, my advice is that you try out as many skills and skill combinations as possible, and then later on try see what's more effective, and check the forum around to see the builds you may like. Try them out, modify them to suit your playstyle. Enjoy.

i just finished the consulate docks mission.

I liked heart of holy flame but i didn't seem to do that much damge against undead. i was just using it so i could take it off and set them on fire so i thought that staggering force would be more effective. i like some of the wind prayers skills but i don't want to drop earth prayers because i like vital boon.

This actually looks good to me, except for Energy Tap. Try to practice timing your enchants so that when they expire, they fuel your energy.

It's also generally a good idea to have your Mysticism in multiples of 3. That's when you hit energy bonuses. Try dropping it to 9 or raising it to 12.

You also have no elite, but I'm sure you know that.
Chilling Victory does a lot of damage, but can be taxing on your energy. If you want to keep it, consider taking Zealous Renewal.
