Name: Mystic Reaper
Purpose: General PvE Enchantment tanking
Profession: Dervish Warrior
Category: Enchantment tank
Attributes:
Earth Prayers - 13 (12 + 1)
Scythe Mastery - 12 (11 + 1 + 1)
Mysticism - 9 (8 + 1)

Skills Used:
1 - Wild Blow (general purpse stance remover)
2 - Conviction (+4 regen or +24 armor if enchanted)
3 - Mystic Sweep (fast scythe strike) or Victorious Sweep (life gainer)
4 - Reaper's Sweep {E} (deepwound + damage dealer) or Wounding Strike {E} (unconditional deep wound)
5 - Mystic Regeneration (4 regen per enchantment)
6 - Vital Boon (lots of life)
7 - Signet of Pious Light or Res-Sig
8 - Faithful Intervention

Weapons/Gear: Any +15>50 or +15 w/ enchanted scythe of enchantment +20%, Windwalker insignia on chest + legs, radiant insignias elsewhere.

Routine: This dervish/warrior set up is primary designed to absorb lots of punishment while still being able to deal out some respectable damage. Before any combat encounter, cast all 3 enchantments and activate Conviction. The dervish then enjoys constant +10 regen, ~647 life (with a +102 FI-health buffer for 749 total life), and 109 armor. This is usually enough tank even L28 elementalist bosses while your heroes/henchies do their job. It's quite nice for soloing bosses once his helpers have been cleared.

The build is pretty straight-forward to use -- just renew your enchantments and conviction stance whenever they expire. Try to keep Vital Boon as your last cast enchantment to combo with Pious Signet whenever posssible.

Give this build a try if you find your dervish dying a little too much.
