completly disagree

lots of derv builds act on ending and re-applying enchants making a +20% enchants mod pointless.

Completly disagree.

Some Enchantments you might want to keep up all the time: Mystic Vigor, Mystic Regeneration, Fleeting Stability, Ebon Dust Aura, Mirage Cloak... (just a few I remember atm).

There're so much Enchants you want to keep up all the time. It's no coincidence that the enchantment mods sell for more than 15k.

btw, I don't think Dwayna's is so good. My own preference would be a Zealous <nice skin here> of Enchanting for tanking and a Vampiric <^^> of Fortitude. I would prefer them even over a perfect Sundering one...

Most of the time, if you want to use an enchantment for its end effect, you use another skill to strip it off rather than wait for it to expire. In this case, an enchanting mod isn't good but it's not bad either. But pretty much every build uses enchants the regular way, either entirely or in combination with self-rending ones. +20% duration to your enchantment is IMO the best mod in any build that uses more than one enchantment for their full duration. For a green, and one that you can get so easily at that, Dwayna's is exceptionally good. Compared to the other scythes it's awesome.

yeh these greens are kinda lackluster... considering they are avatar greens.. I mean..FURIOUS? COME ON ANET! Also besides that point, these greens all have bloody reused skins... I am tired of reused skins.. Bloody Swords and Axes and (maybe) hammers often get new and pretty skins for their greens.. Why not show us Dervs the love huh? Bloody Wammos..

Yeah. I'm especially disappointed that the one great scythe of the bunch (Dwayna's) has the same skin as SUNTOUCHED SCYTHE! What is up with that?!

Too bad all these scythes look bad, or if they look cool they aren't that great.... too situational.

Just what drugs have you been taking and where can I find some for myself? The only greens that aren't max damage, are those found in the beginner areas, Istani Island in Nightfall and the island with Shing Jea Monestary in Factions, all other greens are max damage.

Stygian Scythe i belive is the best in the game, thats why i carry a gold req9 Vampiric Shadow Scythe of Enchanting. Cost me 40k to build, but much less than the 100-200 plat the Stygian Scythe is apparently going for.
