Well recently I have been trying to think of a good way for my Dervish to reach tier 3 survivor, farming trolls, beetles, all melee type characters are my main focus for what I have so far of this build, but I would like your thoughts on whether or not you think it would work, but also what skills to add to my half created build. So far I have:
Prof: Dervish/Monk
Equiptment: Any Scythe with a 20% longer enchant on it.
Runes and armor: Basically this would run like a 55 with higher HP for safety reasons and just because lowering it any further wouldnt be needed, so off the top of my head Windwalker armor with Superior Earth Prayers, Superior Mysticism, Superior Scythe Mastery, Superior Wind Prayers & Minor Vigor (Making your HP equal 210 if my maths is right on that one).
Attributes I am not too sure on, all I have worked I need so far is 16 in Earth Prayers & some in Protection Prayers.
Skills:
Veil of Thorns:
For 21 seconds, whenever you are hit by an attack, your attacker is Crippled for 16 seconds.
Armor of Sanctity
For 10 seconds, you take 21 less damage from foes suffering from a Condition. (note this is why your HP should be 210 if this build is solid).
Mystic Regeneration
For 20 seconds, you have +4 Health regeneration for each Enchantment on you.
Protective Spirit
For 5...19 seconds, target ally cannot lose more than 10% max Health due to damage from a single attack or Spell.
Well thats all I have so far lol, I have yet to work on any type of attack, but with 4 superior runes that means you can add a fair amount of points into whatever you want or even pull from the monk side. I just wanted to know whether people think this build would work and if it would what skills would you suggest in the form of attack (pretty well covered defensive).
I would get out there and test this myself, but my Dervish is still on baby island so all this is just speculation on what could work.
Edit: forgot 1 skill.. Balthazars Spirit for energy regen.

Since you have Sup runes, you should be able to do enough damage with all of the 'bomb' skills. There are about 2 in each att. Here is a LINK to a new build, but I assume you've already seen it. Other than that, I don't know much about dervs. I think the best way to go when be the 'bomb' skills idea, just don't trigger AoE.

Yuppers thats the guide that spurred me to try and think of something a little more invincible (I dread the idea of losing my survivor chances ^_^). The "Bomb" idea just might be what im looking for, but im also open to other suggestions.

Well, lets throw this out there. I really wish I knew how much HP trolls had, if anyone knows, please enlighten me to an estimate.
Myst - 10 + 3
Earth - 9 + 4
Wind - 9 + 3
Protect - 8*
Scy - Rest + 3
With protect, even as a 55 monk, I kept around 5. It only adjusts length, and other than that, putting it high is kinda pointless. Just do what you think is safe energy wise.
Protect Spirit
Mystic Regen
Staggering Force
Heart of Holy Flame
Grenths Fingers
Aura of thorns/Zealous Renewal
Mystic Twister/Mystic Sandstorm
Balth Spirit
The 2 'or' statements go hand in hand. If Aura, go Twister...If Zealous, go Sandstorm (I think). Sandstorm would be very handy, and if you purposely activate a skill before it to cause AOE scatter, you should be able to get up protect, balth, and regen. I would suggest hitting it after some of the others are near recharge.
The rest is pretty self explanatory.

lol....the healing hands build was my attempt to get lvl 3 survivor, at around 500,000xp, I's always stop being careful and do something stupid. After the third time getting healing hands and getting 400,+ xp, I gave up and started going thorugh nightfall. If you want some tips on troll farming with the kaiten build, then pm chiyono sake, I'd be happy to see someone reach legendary with it :)P

Since derv do so much melee damage, perhaps you could just stay alive and hack them to death.
Mys - 9 + 3
Earth - 9 + 4
Scy - 10 + 3
Protect - 8
Wind - + 3
Protect Spirit
Mystic Regen
Heart of Fury
Reapers Sweep
Eremites Attack
Mystic Sweep
Chilling Victory
Balth Spirit
