well depends if you have energy or not but the build is fine
all you need is energy

shoyon456 · Feb 14, 2008, 01:50 AM // 01:50

personally, id swap out chilling for something a little lower energy and a little more spamable....

Not a good time to give specifics, but you know what i mean

You need to be careful about what enchantment you remove with pious assault the only one you want to be removing is eternal aura which means you wont be able to use pious assault all that often. I personally don't think pious assault should be used on a Lyssa bar but to each his own I suppose. I guess you could use it as an opening attack and then put up your enchantments and then use it again to remove eternal aura. I'd use mystic sweep instead of chilling victory.

Energy will be tough, but otherwise looks good. May just take out mystic regen for something less energy intensive (attacker's insight?) since pious assault+vital boon = big heal already.

Actually I didn't think of that.

Thank You!

I'd personally scrap [skill]Pious Assault[/skill], and replace with

if energy management becomes such a problem. Zealous also has the benefits: More damage, Less energy, Less recharge time, No pious action but no condition.

BTW quit deleting my posts. I'm sorry that my inner-expressing doesn't meet your standards but if I'm correct, I was on topic.

I don't see why he would have energy problems I run something similar and never have any issues with energy. You're post was stupid btw...it's like me posting [skill]backfire[/skill] your ele's worst nightmare.

Problem with the skill is the enchantment removal...almost all dervish builds depend on enchantments like Aura of Holy might and Heart of Fury which are on most dervish bars and you don't want them removed.

Mr Pink57 · Feb 14, 2008, 03:21 AM // 03:21

I would drop eternal aura if its a AoL build, you are in AoL for probably close to 74 sec if maybe a little shorter. Drop it for Attacker's Insight maybe which is just fine to remove on hit.

And to be careful on what u remove take flail for a IAS.

If you're using an avatar you don't "drop" eternal aura...that's crazy talk.

I'd take out Vital Boon and Mystic Regeneration. I would put in Aura of Holy Might, and Watchful Intervention. I would change out Chilling Victory for Mystic Sweep. I would take out Pious Assault for Wild Blow, but Pious is not bad, so that's up to you.

High Moral · Feb 14, 2008, 05:49 AM // 05:49

Can someone explain the use of pious assault? Its in most builds, but it removes an enchantment... Enchantments are good no? Why do you want to remove them?

Well, sometimes you want to remove enchantments on purpose, like Vital Boon. Pious Sweep provides deep wound and damage, which is in my opinion the best combination in an attack skill, at the cost of one enchantment, and it's not elite.

chilling -> mystic sweep, protector's strike, or wild blow.
Fast attack speed skills are awesome with lyssa. Wild blow is pretty awesome on a dervish too.

Mystic Regeneration --> Aura of holy might
It kills things. Hard.

Vital boon ---> watchful intervention
Allows you to run only 2 attributes.

Your attributes should end up looking like 14 Scythe, 13 Mysticism. Major Scythe, Minor Mysticism, ect...

The breakpoint for Mysticism is 12, but there is really no where else to put the extra point.

Sometimes it is good to lose an enchantment
for example: i use [skill]Avatar of Lyssa[/skill](which is disabled for 120 sec) then i use the enchantment Eternal Aura (which recharges all Dervish skills after enchantment ends) then i use [skill]pious assault[/skill] (which removes up to 3 enchantments) therefore ending the Eternal Aura enchantment and giving me a fully charged [skill]Avatar of lyssa[/skill](since it is a Dervish Skill) and skipping the 120 sec disable period

Hope that explains it
