I dunno if anyone has posted this before but I wanna get peoples feedback on this build

[skill]Vow of Strength[/skill][skill]Aura of Holy Might[/skill][skill]Asuran Scan[/skill][skill]Critical Eye[/skill][skill]Critical Defenses[/skill][skill]Critical Agility[/skill][skill]Way of the Master[/skill][skill]Optional Slot[/skill]

Basically just Deal massive amounts of damage through normal attacks while critting to keep up defences and agility...but maybe I'm crazy

[wounding [email protected]][malicious [email protected]][mystic [email protected]][way of the [email protected]][critical [email protected]][critical agility][aura of holy might][asuran scan]

is better. (Count Mystic Sweep as the 'optional'. I'd suggest [dash]. Rezzing is for b*tch Heroes.)

- packs Deep Wound
- its attributes aren't split 3-way (you've either specced off Crit or Scythe for Earth... weak)
- +damage > crit damage (though this has more critz, see above point)
- ally-inflicted conditions don't crap over your build

SUP ANIKI! Moebius Blossom > Scythesin. But whatever floats your boat.

^^ That is what I run on my sin, and it works great.

Expanding more on the build..

[build prof=A/D critic=12+1+1 scythe=12][Optional][Optional][Mystic Sweep][Asuran Scan][Critical Agility][Aura of Holy Might][Way of the Master][Resurrection Signet][/build]
Elites
(optional slot 1)
- [[Wounding Strike] for more reliable spammable deep wound.
- [[Reaper's Sweep] for Condition heavy teams (where Malicious would normally trigger).
Non-elites
(optional slot 2)
- [[Eremite's Attack (PvE)] for fast activating attack.
- [[Malicious Strike] for high damage attack that's always critical.
- [[Radiant Scythe] for a high damage attack with low recharge, make sure you have atleast 25 energy for full damage.

Bobby's build more or less. I usually don't use crit eye because I don't ever have a shortage of criticals or energy without it and it opens up a slot for utility or another attack. If I am facing something with hex removal, I'll drop scan for [by ural's hammer] or [I am the strongest].

A Zealous Scythe would be the wisest choice... I don't care. Sundercrits ftw!

VOS only works well if there isnt any conditions in the area, its pretty hard not using conditions when conditions could sometimes determine the outcome of your battle. some skills which monsters use might cause some self inflicted conditions and that would render VOS useless, thus VOS might not be the best choice for the elite of a Crit Scythe build

[vow of strength][golden fox strike][wild strike][death blossom][critical agility][critical eye][asuran scan][i am the strongest]

Super Igor · Feb 19, 2009, 12:23 AM // 00:23

Why vos? o_O I mean its useless because you cant effectively perform in PvE without having some kind of condition present in your party.

Bobby2 · Feb 19, 2009, 03:38 AM // 03:38

You can, in Normal Mode.

pingu666 · Feb 19, 2009, 05:41 AM // 05:41

actully, does the higher crit rate make sundering better than vamp ?, i know its not normaly

Lusciious · Feb 19, 2009, 02:00 PM // 14:00

@pingu, for a scythe, its better to use a sundering mod instead of a vampiric mod because a scythe has a high attack range whereas if you were to choose a dagger with only a 7-17 attack ranger, its better to use vampiric.

you cant use vos in PvE Properly .. its too hard >.>

pingu666 · Feb 19, 2009, 06:18 PM // 18:18

i remmber back in the day vamp was still better dps for scythe

Lourens · Feb 20, 2009, 08:35 AM // 08:35

for pvp try [Shadowy Burden]

Super Igor · Feb 20, 2009, 02:54 PM // 14:54

vamp ftw tbh

Lusciious · Feb 20, 2009, 03:41 PM // 15:41

well if you want a constant a lil higher dps, get vamp. if you want higher spikes which could lead to higher dps than vamp, get sundering.

Bobby2 · Feb 21, 2009, 03:44 AM // 03:44

Vamp
- 5 life steal each hit. Set value.
Sundering
- 20% chance of 20% AP, which is quite a lot for a Scythe.
Can be buffed by percentile damage boosts such as [asuran scan],[aura of holy might]... even [vow of strength] if you must.

I already said I haven't done the math. But sundering scythecrits are damn funny.

Super Igor · Feb 21, 2009, 11:39 AM // 11:39

I have a sundering scythe but vamp is still ftw D:

Bobby2 · Feb 21, 2009, 06:04 PM // 18:04

So? If you were going for max efficiency you'd not be running Scythesin to begin with
