Curse

I've looked on pVxwiki and through here and I can't seem to find a dervish build for general pcs. I just got to venta cemetary so I've capped a few elites aroun there. I was wondering if anyone had a good build I could use that involves only nightfall skills that can be aquired at this point in the game. I'm usin collector armor and collector scythe. So if there is a specific collector set I should use let me know too!

Thanks

Here is my current skill bar:
Pious Assault
Heart of Fury
Heart of Holy Flame
Twin Moon Sweep

I start by using AoG first. Then I run in and use pious assault aiming for more than one foe. Cast Heart of Fury next followed by Heart of Holy Flame. using Twin moon sweep whenever possible an always maintaining HoF and recasting HoHF whenever it is recharged an not worrie about whether it keeps maintained. I usually don't have a problem with energy unless the battle prolongs after 2-3 rounds of spamming skills.
What should I change or add given my current location in nightfall ( Kodonur Crossroads )

the only dervish skills are in nightfall and eotn. look on wiki, there's tons of builds that will work perfectly for what you're looking to do. if you can't find something, you're doing it wrong and should try harder. if there's an eotn skill or two in there, replace those with something similar or just something else since the majority of dervish skills are nightfall. gl.

Tons of builds ? When did you last check pvxwiki as under all working general builds theres a whopping 4 Builds lol.

Op - only thing i can suggest is to ask guildies or look for other derv players and ask nicely if they have any buids

Not sure which (if any of these skills) are nf or core, but assuming pve, and given where u are up to:

Reapers Sweep
Mystic
Eremites
(Mysticism IAS Enchantment)

4 optional skills. Id go with a secondary skill, probably warrior or ele for wild blow or conjure. Maybe some self defence or something.

If you have factions, or proph, Aura of Holy Might (Kurz/Luxon) on a D/W with Wild Blow, Fear Me, etc does pretty gud damage. Throw in asuran scan if u have eotn.

Not really sure however based on ur progress.

Yeah PVx wiki doesn't have a lot to offer, wait, it has nothing to offer for pve Serbs. T builds they have are outdated du to nerfs.reason whyi say nf only is cuz, well that's what I hve. I'll post why I'm usig around 9 tonight and maybe get some feedback fomthat. Hopefully others will be able to follo this as well

Its either a case of pvx is losing ppl who post builds or all the dervs i see in pve are figments of my imagination - and im sure as hell 4 pve builds is way wrong as dervs aint had any real nerfs for ages.Oh wait i forgot - dervs are only runners these days which must explain why the lack of builds - jk .
All you derv players out there invade pvx and show them dervs aint dead plz

Ive been reading through and dervs get such a bad rap. I understand they may not excel in certain areas compared to other professions . But with this build I'm usually able to aggro a handful of monsters as long a I have a monk behind me. AoG is amazing stealing 18 hp each hit and hitting multiple monsters I usul don't have a prob taken embout. But then again I'm jus around Sunspear Sanctuary

Well early on you might wanna try Vital Boon + some form of strip such as pious restoration.

If you're not concerned about hard mode, just find something that you like. Almost anything will do.
