Thread: Anyone else have tough time getting Yellow cubes for Scythe?
can anyone tell me how many cubes you need to make a scythe?
i got 5 yello same serial last night.
Ive had only 1 set of 7 yellows drop in all the time ive been in the geo labs and these were exceptional yellows..which mysteriously turned into white exceptionals (csr has taken 2 for devs to investigate)
Other than this occasion ive never seen 7 yellows drop..reds and greens yes. Of course if and when a 7 series does drop there no saying they will be decent..may just be standard yellows.
IMO there is something we dont know about happening or something planned, for the scythe schemto be of so limited use..to make the drop rate to make decent scythes so horrible..makes you wonder.
we are also in competition with all the other cube hunters with ready weaponsmiths ready to churn out dxr 6's and geo blasters.
Take it from a master of the geo caves. Scythes are a limited schem run. Do you want it to burn bright or burn long? I chose burn long. I got some really good green cubes, like 9700's and had my schythes made from that and some +25 pastes I found. Also, You can make over 500 scythes from one schematic use using the unserialed white cube that spawns in the firespider part of the cave in the trash pile. just wait, it spawns something new every 10 mins from the last time an item was pulled from it. once you get an unserialed cube, just bring it to a weaponsmith, have them make the schem and all you have to do is supply regular white cubes and you get a ton of scythes. They aren't as good as using yellow or green cubes but you definitely get quantity. Some may scream it's an exploit... I disagree. Making items out of non serialed loots from the day that everything dropped without serials. That was officially said to be an exploit. It was a one day occurance that has since been corrrected. The geonosian cave has been live for several months now. It is a well known fact that the white cubes pop out unserialed. anyone can get one. It allows you to make low end versions of limited use schems. But that's a different story.
I used green cubes and high end pastes. The extra damage is nice, but not as nice as the extra weeks of use you get with higher durability.

ya but the people that scream that it is an explote are in this case coprect. cuz if you hold onto that cube it will have a serial number after reset. And that in my eyes makes it an explote.
If it wasn't for the fact the they get serial nubers after reset then i woudn't say that this is an explote. but the fact that the system gives these cubes serial numbers eventually makes me believe that this was not an intended but a bug and by using the white cubes you are exploting a bug that was not intended. even though it doesn't seem that bad your mass producing scythes that are weaker then the normal versions. instead of infietly making uber krayt weapons. but truely in the end it is the same thing exploting the system.
