well anyway heres my build:

[My Dervish;OgGjIhVFbSuX9glXKF7gQFTFCAA]

as for my weapon i have an inscribale chaos axe that i dyed white. its stats are as follows:

Vampiric Chaos Axe of Axe Mastery
Slashing Dmg: 6-28 (Reg 11 Axe Mastery)
Life Stealing: 3
Health Regeneration-1
Axe Mastery +1 (20% chance while using skills)
Inscripition: "Strength and Honor"
Damage +15% (while Health is above 50%)

As for my sheild i use a Exalted Agegis, its stats are as follows:

Exalted Aegis of Devotion
Armor: 16 (Reg 11 tactics)
Health +45 (while Enchanted)
Inscripition "Leaf on the Wind"
Armor +10 (vs Cold Damage)

I've showed this build to other people and they tell me "why use Balthzar? it sucks?!" Well to tell you the truth i like the + armor it gives to my dervish and also the speed. I mean who wouldnt to be a hell of a tank while doing good amounts of dmg to 1 to all creatures and once. I just love that.

But any how the reason im on here is just for the fact that i wanted to see what every one thought of this build and if i might need to change anything.

oh by the way i have a Radiant rune on my chest armor and attunement runes on the rest of armor pieces as of right now

What do I think of your build? I think that Avatar of Balthazar is probably the crappiest Avatar available to a dervish and I think that by not using a scythe your lowering your damage potential significantly. You said you do "good amounts of dmg". I'm not sure what you consider good damage but I can tell you that any standard Dervish build with a scythe and Aura of Holy Might is going to be doing more then double your damage.

This is just a game tho so If your having fun with the axe keep using the axe.

Not abusing the most broken weapon in the game is kinda dumb but yeah...

What the f***!!

Dervish's power is to use Scythes, specially in PvE, conjured with Aura of Holy Might...

Using Axe and AoE attack skills is just a waste of skill-slots and attribute points, and damage...

I bet you do perhaps 50, 60 critical damage with that build.. I can do pretty much the double with Scythe and fewer skills

And spending 5 points in Tactics, when you don't use Tactics skills is another fail

4/10
