A Dervish is typically a melee fighter that enjoys seeing the eyes of his victims before he kills them. However, a Dervish is also known for making great runners in Guild Wars. Low level characters “hire” and pay Dervishes to get them from one town to another while the low level character just stands there. Multiple classes can be a runner but the most common and easy class to make into a runner is Dervish.

Armor Selection

The Dervish has many different armor types specialized just for their class. Level 20 Dervishes should have “maxed” armor since it will give the character the most protection against enemies. Maxed armor for a Dervish is 70.

Here is a list of the different maxed armor types and where to obtain each:

  • Obsidian Armor: The Fissure of Woe
