Curse

I've been toying around with a few build for a while now, this is best that i have mustered up, it has huge dps, nice amounts of energy....only flaw is that is doesn't really have much in the way of survivability, but that's why heroes are around

ebon standard of honor
eternal aura
aura of holy might
heart of fury
mystic sweep or eremites attack
chilling victory
victorious sweep
avatar of lyssa

ebon standard of honor could be changed to any number of things, some healing prehaps, like faithful intervention, more AoE damage. the list could go on.

scythe mastery 12 + 1 + 2
mystism 12 + 1

couple of runes of vitae, and best vigor you can afford

as for insignias, it's quite flexible, but i find it best to have a radiant on my chest and another on shoes/gloves, then i have a blessed and windwalkers on my head and gloves/shoes, finally a surivors on my leggins

for the all important scythe, i use either a zealous of enchanting, or the old faithful sundering and fortitude.

please leave any comment, i welcome critism, aslong as it's not bad

it's standard in all honesty, but i'd remove victorious sweep. it isn't good

Yeah, remove Victorious Sweep for another quick attack like Eremite's/Mystic/Protector's.

Pretty standard Lyssa build scheme:
3 quick attacks
IAS
AoL
AoHM
EA
Optional

But it's still better if you've came up with it yourself than used AoB ^^

Victorious sweep is awsome. dont know what you guys are on...
+25 damage and a heal on a 4 second recharge , yay.

Chilling is bad for this bar though, to expensive. use Wild blow and spam it on recharge.

[DE] · May 09, 2008, 03:29 AM // 03:29

Chilling is awesome and should be kept on almost any dervish bar.

This is true. I've never understood why people don't like this skill when, in my opinion, it's one of the better Dervish attack skills.

For Avatar of Lyssa builds, Protector's Strike, or some such other fast-activation attack is probably more suitable, but for non-AoL builds Victorious Sweep really is pretty decent.

Bassu · May 09, 2008, 10:16 AM // 10:16

I've never said it wasn't good, it just doesn't fit in AoL builds. Victorious is great and I always use it along with Wearing and Eremite's/Mystic in AoM build.
Chilling Victory is one of the best dervish attacks and I don't see the reason behind the high-cost argument - it's Lyssa, you should have 45+e; if you're having energy problems with one 10e attack on your skillbar - you're doing something wrong.

Alex the Great · May 09, 2008, 10:20 AM // 10:20

the reason why i said victorious sweep was bad was because i ment for this bar it was bad. you need the 2 quick attacks and chilling, because it is epic win.

On topic: I would put [flail] in there so you have a permanent IAS

Victorious only really relieves a bit of pressure and the conditional doesn't work when you really need it. The +25 with a 4s recharge isn't bad but there are much better choices out there for nearly any dervish bar.

I agree with the boringness of UB...
With lyssa you need IAS and many scythe skills, as well as maybe energy management from spamming. Lyssa's Assault maybe?
