Who cares if Assassins or Warriors can do some more damage with a scythe? That doesn't mean the Dervish can't dish it out too, just because they can't dish out as much doesn't make them completely useless, but that seems to be the way of thinking around here.
So so so true.
After five minutes on these forums you can see how narrow minded and elitest the attitude is.
I dont have a dervish, but I do have a crit-sin. And to the OP, ignore anyone who says dervishes are crap.
Unbelievably its possible that the dervish is quite capable enough to deal plenty of damage and own. Just because other proffesions may play the role better doesnt actually come into it.
The only time you might be worried about that being an issue is if you're trying to get a group and there are lots of people there. But trust me this wont happen unless you're trying to do a specific team build which requires certain roles to be filled any way.
Get into a decent guild and pug trouble is a thing of the past
