The Enchanted Scythe build is focused on spamming close range
area damage. It is useful in general PvE area. In the higher end
areas, a monk is needed to travel long distances.
Attributes and skills
Equipment
- Any armor could be used but extra energy and energy recovery is
recommended due to the high energy cost of most of the spells.
- Preferred Scythe stat possibilities are: 9-41 damage, +20%
damage, and 15% damage while over 50% health
- Extra long enchantments are not necessary because the enchants
are stripped almost immediately.
Usage
- As soon as you enter an area cast Faithful Intervention for extra
protection while in battle.
- When you are ready to attack, cast Vital Boon for health during the later
portion of the fight.
- Get next to your target. Then cast, Heart of
Holy Flame and Grenth's Fingers causing initial area damage
to the target.
- Use Pious
Assault twice to do direct damage and remove Heart of Holy
Flame and Grenth's Fingers which will set them on fire and cripple
them.
- Continue to recast Heart of Holy Flame and Grenth's Fingers and
remove them with Pious Assault.
- Signet of Pious Light can be used in
the same way as Pious Assault if you or a teammate are running low
on health. Signet of Pious Light will need to be used multiple
times in succession because of its low stats.
- You can also strip Vital Boon for a small health boost during
battle.
Note: The enchantments can be cast in any order that you choose
and the order of casting will normally change due to certain
circumstances.
Counters
Any enemy that strips enchantments will hurt this build. There
is no way to protect yourself from this except having a interrupter
watch for these enemies at all times.
Variants
Lightbringer's Gaze can be replaced with
any other AoE enchantment when you are not fighting Abaddon's
minions. It can also be replaced with any of the avatars that you
see fit.
Notes
This build is effective as a PvE build. One downside to this build is that Prot Monks
have a hard time putting their enchantments on you. Pay close
attention to the enchantments that you are stripping when a Prot
Monk is with you. I did not choose to add a elite to this build
only because I did not see it fitting in with the general style of
the build.
