What Avatar Form For The Derv Is The Best And Why

 * Grenth, but in the end RS wins for PvE, and WS PvP.
 * Balth adds no significant damage (+armor and IMS are not useful enough), Lyssa is meh against half mobs, only activates on one-third of all attacks. Dwayna is for solo/lame'ing. Grenth deals ~good damage and helps a bit against degen. Unblockable is a neat touch to counter Guardian and similar skills. On the other hand, Reaper's deal a load of damage, can remove enchantments and can DW enemies (100 max health down = 100 damage effectively). ZV is pretty fun if you like Radiant Scythe and/or Farmer's Scythe, but ends quickly at that. Good for heroes. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]] -- (contribs) &emsp;(talk)  14:02, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

I do like Grenth with the life stealing since it also does the added 17 dmg on hit, but Melandru is also good since you cant be hit by any conditions and +100hp makes it good for runs since there are alot of good speed skils, the cost is a little high compared to the other avatars.

 * Oh, right, I forgot one. Mel's is shit. Worse than Dwayna, imo. Your energy is doomed, meaning you either take 2 or 3 energy management skills to maintain it (craps up your damage), or you gain... Zero damage with 50% uptime. In PvE, your skills should be focused around dealing damage, and dealing more damage (perhaps a res, too). If you die, you either overaggroed (too much pressure on the backline), or your backline is terrible in the first place. My 70AL ele runs out in the frontlines with a hammer dealing death because I can. My backline is solid enough to keep me alive, and my damage output is high enough to pummel through hard mode H/H. Conditions are more of a boon than a pain if you take RC, btw. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]] -- (contribs) &emsp;(talk)  14:22, March 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yea i think you are right about the energy plus the form dosent last long 58 sec when Grenth is 72 or something like that.
 * I would say that Grenth along with skills like Victorious Sweep you shlould make it hard for you to go down.Fang Cloud 14:41, March 8, 2010 (UTC)
