User:Artist of Healing/builds/Nightfall Hybrid Spiker

Using Paragon's energy management and critical hit capabilites, the P/D Nightfall Hybrid Spiker allows you to deal critical hits with a scythe, one of the more deadly weapons in Guild Wars.

Equipment

 * Any max armor, Vigor/Vitae Runes if possible, Centurion Insignias as Aggressive Refrain should always be active.
 * Zealous Scythe for battles, have an energy set ready for emergency Aggressive Refrain.

Usage

 * Activate Aggressive Refrain just before entering battle.
 * After a few hits, activate "Go for the Eyes!", and immediately use Reaper's Sweep.
 * If the hit was critical, the damage will be outrageous. Follow up with Eremite's Attack as to not give your enemy a chance to heal.
 * When affected by weakness or blindness, use Remedy Signet.
 * When running particularly low on health, use Victorious Sweep.

Counters

 * Anti-shout skills.
 * Energy denial.
 * Unluckiness (80% chance to hit critical with Reaper's Sweep.)
 * Kiting.

Variants
Suggested variant:
 * Blazing Finale. Exchange for either signet, definitely helps add cumulative damage to all adjacent targets.
 * Burning Refrain. Works similarly to how Blazing Finale works, except it can be recycled forever. This requires extra energy or else you won't be able to chain with Aggressive Refrain.
