Dervish/Warrior

 * Flail and other IAS skills can help overcome the slow attack speed of a scythe.

Dervish Ranger

 * Serpent's Quickness can lower the recharge time of scythe attacks.
 * It is very tempting to consider using a scythe to spread poison with Apply Poison. However, the health degeneration of poison alone is not worth the skill slot (compared to other Dervish skills that deal damage), even with no attribute points diverted away to Wilderness Survival.
