Is this build feasible? Scythe para..

Zealous Vow
Aura of holy might
Mystic sweep
Eremite's attack
Victorious sweep
Go for the eyes
Drunken master
Signet of return



Though about throwing aggressive refrain there but I don't think it will be very practical ....

I know people will say stick to impagons ..I know they are the best suited role for Paras .....just thought this idea would be good for fun ...and Scythe paras look infinitely beautiful :P.

I'm seeing Wind Prayers, Scythe Mastery, Command, and Leadership. I'm curious how you'd split attributes. Wind either needs to be at 9 or 12 for Zealous Vow breakpoints. Leadership needs to still be high (at least 8, more like 10 tbh) if you're using GftE for energy purposes, and if not it's not really worth the slot imo. I suppose Command would be the one getting the shaft?

This should get you through the game if you really want (it's PvE), but tbh I'd just run my Dervish if I was feeling the need to do something like this. Also, you'll get raped by enchantment removal (groups of Kournan Seers and Oppressors for example), even more so than a normal Dervish.

I would maintain The highest attribute spread in Scythe Leadership and Command. Aggresive refrain will work. Use a zealous scythe along with TNTF and Save Yourselves with go with the eyes. Drop the rez that is what heros are for. Your leadership attribute along with a zealous scythe will provide enough energy to use 2 attack skills. A shout added from the Leadership line along with Go for the Eyes will keep your energy pool nicely. After testing these Ideas I think you could find a plausible PVE Scythe Paragon.

Thanks for the replies

For the zealous vow ...4 in wind prayers is more than enough ..it will give +3 energy per attack ..although the idea of a high wind prayers for whirling charge isn't a bad idea ....hmmmm

the problem with aggressive refrain is the cracked armor ..i will use the scythe thus be at melee range ....while relinquishing my shield ....suddenly the very resilient Para is like a mesmer ..

command isn't really necessary to invest in a lot either as GFTE gives 30% at zero which is a LOT already ...

You'd be better off running a D/P if all you wanted was [Go For the Eyes] and [Signet of Return].

Actually that is why I asked for suggestions here ..because it seemed to as basically a watered down dervish with more armor ....

I am a moron. I did not mean to use save yourselves. My apologies. As for Aggresive refrain, most times a hero with condition removal will take it right off. I hope you are not trying to solo a paragon. Leadership is excellent energy management and the synergy in PVE is unbeatable. I have used a Paragon with a scythe in PVE with Sabway and had wonderful results.

Just a joke build to run. Not to be taken seriously because [[Aggressive Refrain] causes Cracked Armor, which can now lead to user being blown up.

Edit: Better build, but still bad lol.

This one doesn't have cracked armor and uses [[soldier's fury].
