Default D/X FoW Beach Soloer :)

Well i got bored today now i broke up for the summer holidays so i decided to try out something ive been thinking about for a while, and it turns out to be a bit of a shard magnet Enjoy:

Equipment:
Full Windwalker Armor
Zealous Scythe of enchanting (20%)
Longbow/Flatbow

Template Code: OgCkkuqzKyuEzF0l7VPI713l4W5F

Attributes:
Scythe Mastery: 11+1+3 (15)
Mysticism: 11+1 (12)
Earth Magic: 8

Skills:
Mystic Sweep
Victorious Sweep
Avatar of Balthazar
Eternal Aura ( Used to keep Balth up always)
Mystic Regeneration
Mystic Vigor
Heart of Fury
Faithful intervention (Used for the extra 3 regen and incase your health drops low)

So basicly i assume you know how to get to the beach.

You cannot kill the Skales so don't even try.
Eternal Aura should only be used after you've cast balthazar. There is no need to use it otherwise.
Make sure you use your scythes ability and hit 3 enemies at once (except with dryders)

Driftwoods: Keep enchants up (except eternal Aura) and balthazar up and spam your attack skills. They will drop very fast.

Dryders: Keep up balthazar and spam attack skills when you are hexed with Wastels Worry. Soon you will gain health from Vic sweep so dont worry about healing from your enchants.

Spiders: Precast enchants and lure 3 with your bow. Make sure they're all being hit with your scythe and hack away. Renew enchants as needed and use attacks when you can. Make sure balthazar has plenty of time on it BEFORE you lure the mob too. Because if you renew it in battle it will likely be interupted and you will have to wait for it.

My best run with this build is 25 minutes and my average is about 30. Aslong as you know what your doing in FoW then this build will be no problem for ya Enjoy guys

I love this build better then using a D/Me or D/Mo to solo the beach and caves, Just a question do you know if it's possible to solo any of the shadow army as a dervish?

What i do is stand a safe distance from them for about 2 mins or so and observe where the groups walk, then you plan how to sneak past them from there, make sure you can see a safe place to head for though. If you do actually have to run through them just put on all your enchantments and you should be fine.

Alternately, try the Vow of Silence D/Me build from Lawby and take the bolt!

I bought a [wiki]Scythe of Corruption[/wiki] to do the job. Cost me 30K, made it back in a handful of UW runs
