Alright, the skills I am currently using are:

This is a PvE character, so try to keep rune suggestions to a minimum, I'm not that rich.

1.Ebon Dust Aura
2.Chilling Victory
3.Mystic Regeneration
4.Faithful Intervention
5.Vital Boon
6.Wild Blow
7.Victorious Sweep
8.Lyssa's Assault

Scythe Mastery 16
Wind Prayers 3
Mysticism 9
Earth Prayers 9

I would just like to get some useful advise as to how I could improve this. I'm certainly not an expert at PvP.

Needs a rez, and an IAS spell.

Drop [[mystic regen] and [[lyssa's assault] for [[res sig] and [[heart of fury] if you were speccing in 2 attributes but 3 points kinda makes it dumb. Honestly though if your going to spec for [[ebon dust aura] I would suggest a spear not a scythe.

*Punching myself due to stupidity*

My bad, I meant Alliance Battle PvP, so I won't need a rez.

I'd say drop Mystic Regeneration, Vital Boon, Victorious Sweep and Lyssa's Assault for good skills.

First off, an EDA blindbot should really be using a ranged weapon - chasing after melee to try and blind them is a sure way to fail miserably. For EDA, spears are a fine choice - fast recharging attacks applying generous cover conditions. Something like....
[build prof=D/P name="EDA spearchucker" box spear=12 myst=10+1+1 earthp=8+1 desc="Weapon 1: Ebon spear"][swift javelin][barbed spear][maiming spear][disrupting throw][ebon dust aura][heart of fury][faithful intervention][remedy signet][/build]

If you want to keep the scythe, then I'd say go [[Wounding Strike] or [[Avatar of Melandru]

And if you're poor, just roll a PvP character instead of running a gimped PvE character - no sense in bringing yourself and your team down with bad equipment (superior runes, non-max weapons & modifiers, radiant insignia etc.)

Tell us what elites you have on your account/character. Blinding Surge outperforms EDA in the blinding department seriously.

Well, I've capped just about all the dervish elites, and the ones I am missing can be gotten easily enough.

Almost none outside of derv though.
