It sucks. never use avvy of balth EVER. It seriously does NOTHING useful. I myself would say dont use an avatar at all, but i would get out argues on that. so i I suggest using a useful avatar(melandru or dawanya) if you must use one.

I dont understand why you think Avatars suck Coloneh. IIRC this is the second thread where you express your hate of them. (that ive seen)

Personally i think the build is fine. except id trade out chilling victory, i just dont like it that much (dont like 10 nrg attacks in general), id suggest using wild blow in place of Chilling if you want to go D/W, OR if you want to go Coloneh's way and not use an avatar then why not trade out Avvy of Balth for Conviction and then use one of the Scythe elites in place of Chilling, or any elite for that matter. (Vow of Strength is nice)

I too am not a fan of avatars. They have their place but generally they are of limited utility in PvE, if that is what this build is for. I would kick out chilling victory for Wildblow if you are D/W. You're going to get significant energy drain with this build and you'll be hard pressed to keep your damage output up. If not Wildblow then I'd go with victorious sweep. It's a nice cheap attack to have and it does some good healing too.

I said I dont like avatars myself and dont use them, but my point was that NO ONE should use avatar of balthazar. I rage quit if i see a dervish pop on the balth avvy.

Ok i can agree with you there, Avvy of Balth does make people think theyre invincible and they run ahead and act like a dumb wammo. But i mean come one, +40 armor, all dmg is Holy dmg (yes you can get this from other skills but still) which there isnt any extra resistance to this kind of dmg. 33% faster movement for kiting foes. The skill doesnt really seem that bad to me. I use it on my dervish hero and think its pretty damn good.

Somewhat decent, though I do suggest a different avatar.
