looks good, perhaps post the code? Also, consider Avatar of Lyssa and The sunspear PvE skill, means you can loose hexes and keep it up forever.

VoS is for protection from Clumsiness. Lyssa wouldn't work very well.

Armor insignias doesnt matter... I do it all the time with radiants using this build:

[skill]vow of silence[/skill][skill]victorious sweep[/skill][skill]mystic sweep[/skill][skill]conviction[/skill][skill]mystic regeneration[/skill][skill]mystic vigor[/skill][skill]balthazar's spirit[/skill][skill]pious haste[/skill]

I can aggro up to 6 vaettirs and it's better overall for surviving as your healing is not limited to victorious sweep

And willy.. Dwayna is the avatar that removes hexes whenever you use a skill [skill]Avatar of Dwayna[/skill]

Each scythe attack strikes primary target and up to 2 additional targets within adjacent range(form wiki)

why aggro 6 if u can only kill 3 at time?
the build you post is certainly more safety than mine, but it's slowly and with only victorious you can tank 5 vaettir(with norn title at 3 ).

Because the other 2 targets you hit other than your target is random for each hit, so you will end up killing them all at the same time anyway.

And I think my method is faster 'cause you can kill more at a time

i think you forget that in HM there are 60 of those there instead of the ~15 in NM, good luck trying to only aggro 3 (im not saying it cant be done but i havnt tried it and it wold be really slow). If you want HM the 8min run by the ele can mass aggro nicely there. But getting a build for the derv to work there would be a nice challenge, gl and let us know how it goes.

Where did he say this build was for HM? Also, the vaettirs come in groups of 5 or 6, so aggroing 3 wouldn't work.

Mmm errr. Yeah i posted that ele build hehehe, but i wanna talk about derv tooo (i still got one in no time).

I tried with E/D with the same build as ele but using asterius scythe (for the zealous + 20% enchants mainly) and aggro them in groups of... I dunno how much, but in HM.

I used farmer scythe as said above and radiant scythe (well i got 3 o 4 enchants on me hehe) but... it was painfully slowly. Yeah, it was fun to use the scythe but.... sloooooow as turtle moving.

Maybe you do it as a dervish faster, but i dislike the Vow of Silence counterpart... its a very good skill but... how do you use that in HM? they will fry you using degen in the recast time (i think).... I only used VoS for running, not static plans hehehe.

Mmmm or this will be for NM... but there are near 20 vaettir, and 60 in HM. Just probability of drop hehehe.

Um... with a 20% enchants mod VoS lasts for 12 seconds at 14 Myst. That means that you have 2 seconds to cast it. 1 sec cast time still leaves you with 1 second of overlap. So you should be able to keep it up permanently. Then they can't cast on you (so no degen) and you can slash them to itty bitty pieces.

(of course, you have to be the sort of person who doesn't mind using more than 1 superior rune >.>)

A decent build, but I'd change to a D/Me and (since Balthazar's Spirit will be gone) take Mantra of Earth, it reduces damage and gives 2 energy (when you get hit)

Nice, but how much does 1 glacial stone sell for now? And how many do you average per run?

Just wanna know if it's worth it

You cannot recast VoW of silence while it is still up.
