You can generally trust that any build given a "great" rating, such as that one, is going to be viable. While others may have their own variants they like to run, no one is going to tell you that it's "bad" persay

I like thinking outside the box and playing characters outside their role just like you do...So I'd say yes, go ahead and stick with that build. The reason most W/D have to use Warrior's Endurance is to keep their energy up from always using asuran scan, aura of holy might, and all energy attack skills

BE CREATIVE...the only real opinion that matters in the end is yours

well I have red this thread from its beginning and now think..humm does this work good. I am used to using a fire sword and going with mark of rodgort ele as secondary and I am thinking of giving this a shot.

Q with WE and say hitting 3 foes at a time with a der weapon do you get energy from every foe??

Degeneration skills aren't really useful in PvE, and running MoR on a War is a really bad idea.

Yes, because WE triggers on hit, and scythes can hit up to 3 times.

With Whirlwind Attack, you'll hit more than three surrounding enemies, meaning more dps and nrg return. If it's your only adren skill, it'll charge quickly. There's no real reason not to bring it.

It takes up a slot occupied by AoHM, SY! and Asuran Scan. That's plenty of reason not to bring it.

Don't like scythe warriors, scythe assassins are much better. Not saying that the build does not work, it doesnt work as well as some of the axe builds. Energy issues in situations where you are blocked/blinded, plus lower armor and defense bonuses from the lack of a shield. Good axe builds are still superior considering both defense and offense combined.
