Well i ogt a question for a A/D. With max critical hit and put all other point spread in scyth mastery and earth prayer (for healing and stuff) would the critical mastery critical hit chance mix with scth masterys?

Critical Strikes works for ALL weapons.

Even for wands/staves. (Just wand someone/something and you'll get the energy when you get a critical hit)

Scythes have the highest crit damage, and assassins can combine their primary attribute with Scythe Mastery, yes... but don't forget you're leaving out the rune, which can make a huge difference in the actual damage output.

The Critical Scythe build works fine, with the right dervish earth-prayers you can keep a constant +24 armor [negating one of the Sins weaknesses] and a constant 9 pips of health regenoration [you could get 12 (to offset degen) but you'd have to give up something for another enchant]. The only place it's really likely to suck is near end-game, going up against all those L28 mobs, where your chance to get a critical hit is greatly reduced by the level difference [I haven't gotten that far with my Sin yet; it takes time to get all 10 characters through the game {not to mention Derv and Para into/through Cantha and/or Tyria!}].
