ok, answer these when ever you can.
First of all; Hassin's shell, now i know this is just luck of the draw but 23 times and no drop? now that's just depressing.

Secondly; Rajazan's Ferver. I havn't found this being sold ANYWHERE but if it is sold, how much does it go for?

Thanks, i'm just a bit hyped up about being grinded toa halt in this build. i'l keep checking up for answers and if you need me i'll be killing hassin softskin again and again and again.

I use a D/W and love it, I find it to be very fun. My main problem with the Scythe is it is too slow however it does great AoE when used properly. Things like crippling sweep can devastate casters if they are bunched together. However I use a Totem Axe with a Serrated Sheild req 9 tactics -2 dmg in stance +30 health (GOTY edition bonus item). Which is hard to do some AoE damage with but find using Cyclone Axe or Zealous Renewal for energy management can help that a bit. Also I am a lvl 16 derv and avg about -50 a hit so it does well. Also for armor I use max Elonian with full Radiant Insignias, Superior Rune of Mysticism/Earth Prayers, and 3 Major Runes of Vitae. This keeps my energy at about 43 and with vital boon my health gets to a little over 400 right now with +9 health regen with all enchants (10 in mysticism). I have had a few PvE char strip enchants but find myself with just more health and easily recoverable.

Also I have found with a D/W you can get a decent run build, not as good as a D/A but close. I did a few test runs at lvl 13 from LA to Yaks and did in fact make it with a little help from other runners (I died 3 times). I also ran from Yaks to Ascalon with ease.

Just sharing my expierence with the D/W and the fun it brings. I also have a Echo Nuker but find this to be much more fun.

i found energy management hard on this build. When i was mobbed, i threw up mystic and vital and beggan throwing up enchants. I got three up before i ran completely out of energy. After a few seconds energy returned and i used sandstorm however. To help with this i replaced aura of thorns with 'Eremite's zeal' which helped alot and now the build is incredible ^^. Mite be a problem that it takes away enchants, but it's fine for me.

I posted something like this during the beta testing. It originated from the CoPway enchantment spammer that shutdown halls during the alpha weekend.

the discussion seems to have gotten carried away from the original build... so I will go back to that...
it's not a bad build however you dont need sword/axe mastery at all, you're not using your weapon as a damage dealer... you also lack an elite skill...
changes I would make to the original build:
1. drop sword/axe mastery and pump up wind prayers
2. drop Staggering Force and Heart of Holy Flame
3. add an elite, Pious Renewal fits perfectly to your build
4. add another damage skill, Mystic Twister(and thus wind prayers) fit perfectly to your build
than you can spike with Mystic Twister->Mystic Sandstorm and have another easily stackable enchantment that gives you another health+energy boost when it ends
