130 Dervish???
It all looks so good and perfect on YouTube. When you do it urself, nothing works. For me, this build does NOT work. I think I'm an ultra noob (yes I admit) but I don't understand how others do it. You see, whenever I approach the monsters, I cast all the stuff etc etc. It's true I don't die in the beginning, however I find that three things always screws me over.
1.presence of a mesmer.
Pain in the a** cuz one enchantment removal ur instantly dead.
2. Monk monsters
For me I don't know why I always hit soooo low on monsters and once I finally hit them to half hp they heal to the max again.
3. Bosses don't die
I know patience is required and it takes up to 10 to kill one boss by urself, but for me the hp doesn't seem to go down at all, either they keep healing or they resist all my attacks
Can someone please tell me what my problem is?
My build is the standard 130 hp build and I follow everything on the build including equips runes etc
EDIT: ok so my set location now as an experiment is to be at Marga Coast. However, as soon as I approach Lunto Sharpfoot, all these stupid healing beetles come. I try to rid of them first but they won't die. I looked at some YouTube videos of dervishes farming here and they all do 100+ damage. It's seems as if the highest I have EVER hit in these guys are about 60. I use a Fiery Saurian Scythe of Enchanting with Guided By Fate

Well - did you get the build off pvx wiki or copying off youtube ?
Its best to check pvx and get exact usage details also i hate to say but check date on youtube as a common mistake made is to see a build working and find out after the video is 2 yrs old and since then foes/skills have been buffed or nerfed.
Also with 55 builds , 105/130/330 hp type builds is often they take a while to learn exact usage - 55 monk can take a while to get used to any many a player have tried and given up after 5 or 10 runs saying its impossible for them.

solution for all 3 problems: check where you can use the build to farm
Farmbuilds don't work at every random location
PvX wiki usually has a list of farmable locations/bosses for each farmingbuild

Check this out
Check out the gamer society's video. Its also on PvX.
This is a hard build to run, thats why its not on the "Great" part of PvX.
Its not that useful either lol. But its fun and has profit.
Heres the link.

the solution to your problems:
55/105/130 builds are generally meant for farming melee mobs. mesmers + monks = no go in most cases. anything that heals, stacks lots of degen, or removes your enchantments will render your build useless. it doesn't work everywhere against everything. you should check pvx for a list of farmable areas and what to farm there.

So yeah, mesmers and necros are usually a no-go. Monks aren't either cuz they'll usually outheal ur dmg.
And if bosses don't die, that might be due to a self-heal, check their bars on wiki and if they got one (like Heal Signet) it will get harder and sometimes impossible indeed.
A list of farmable things is on pvx, like said above
On a sidenote: u could live thro enchant removal if prot spirit wasnt the last enchant u cast. If u cast it before Mystic Regen that will get stripped instead and u won't die instantly
