Dervs have a role in DoA ? What!

I finally went with an alliance group with my derv. We had 1 Derv glaiver (me), 1 sin glaiver, 1 necro glaiver and 1 rit glaiver. It went fine even though we lost a monk 2 dc in foundry....I might suggest changing the test of faith out for something else....I was thinking maybe extend enchatments for seed of life. I don't think I would recommend HM for it though.

Been doing doa pugs lately and from what i`ve seen, it can be done in about 1h:30min max DwG way. With cons in normal mode. I play mostly rit and all tree variants (SoS, DwG or ST) work well. ST is particularly useful against Mallyx. Oh, and Great Dwarf Weapon+Earthbind do wonders on him. And it is so normal for dwg players to die often. That`s why there`s an ua. Just bring some dp removers. Other monk is usually hb.

Just did Gloom today in 36min with a PUG. I have to say, it was the strangest team I've had lol^^. Little bit of everything in the group.

2 Monks
1 Dervish that was a tank/dmg dealer. He used Avatar of Balth with Stoneflesh and some scythe skills. It was weird, but worked very well.
1 Warrior with a Triple Chop build, kind of looked like a farming build lol
1 SoS
1 RoJ (me)
1 Ele Nuker
1 AoTL hero

We did have an armor of salvation that I used (was just sitting in my storage), that probably helped. But, this was a very cooperative group and we worked very well together. We only wiped once, and that was the last part when we fought the Darknesses, but we recovered quickly and finished.
