Optional

• Optional:
• Any generic rez skill you'd like.
• If you want extra melee bring an attack skill of your choice
• Add conviction for some extra armor.
• If energy seems to be a problem bring low cost scythe attacks instead (Example: Rending Sweep)

[edit] Equipment

• Maxed armor with Blessed Insignia
• Any scythe with "Zealous" and "of Enchanting" mods
• Dmg + 15% while enchanted is a good weapon insignia because Faithful Intervention will be maintained.

[edit] Usage

• First cast Faithful Intervention which the goal here should be to keep maintained. Because It will trigger the blessed insignia and weapon inscription(if any).
• Before going into battle cast Avater of Balthazar, Followed by the other enchants (mystic vigor and heart of fury)
• Fire off your attack chain.
• When enchants wear off the zealous scythe should give you energy to re-cast them.

[edit] Counters

• Disenchantment usually counters the builds.
• Spiteful Spirit will do heavy damage to this build.

[edit] Variants

• You can replace the attack skills with any others you choose.

[edit] Notes

• Remember that Faithful Intervention will stay up as long as you don't go below 50% health. With the health gain from each hit due to Mystic Vigor it should be hard to go below 50%.
• Scythes hit muliple targets so mystic vigor can give you a good spike of health per hit.
