Today I was messing with my Derv's elites and this is what I came up with (I know it's nothing new but since the skills synergy very well I've decided to post this setup here).
D/Any
Scythe Mastery: 11+2
Wind Prayers: 8+1
Mysticism: 11+1
[skill]Lyssa's Assault[/skill]
[skill]Mystic Sweep[/skill]
[skill]Chilling Victory[/skill]
[skill]Attacker's Insight[/skill]
[skill]Onslaught[/skill]
[skill]Heart of Fury[/skill]
Great Dwarf Armor
[skill]Mystic Twister[/skill] / [skill]Resurrection Signet[/skill]
This is a fun build to play with in PvE. I've been testing it on HM and it was doing very nicely so I can assume it will do the job in NM as well. Basically it has a huge damage potential. You cast GDA, then Attacker's Insight, then Onslaught and finally Heart of Fury. Next, you use your 3 attacks skills and you should have max energy after it. Your finishing move should be Mystic Twister, of course assuming that your target is not dead already.
Some may say that downside of this build is lack of self-healing, but IMO in PvE you should stick to your class' task only - which in case of dervishes is dealing huge amount of damage. But if you want more defense - go with Mystic Vigor/Natural Healing/Dwayna's Touch instead of Mystic Twister.
I think that this build also has a PvP potential, thinking chiefly about AB. Instead of GDA get yourself a self-heal, and maybe a running skill instead of Mystic Twister - everything up to you.
For this build I'm using Zealous Scythe of Enchanting, but you may use Vampiric/Sundering Scythe of Enchanting too.
Radiant on chest, Survivour on the rest.
Hope some of you guys will have fun while using this build,
Cheers
