I think the scythe should have had some sort of DoT, and stat increases, like nightsister lances have.

I'd like a weapon that does cold damage simply because there's not many cold effect weapons out there. I also liked the acid damage ranged weapons that I used in the past, before I found my true calling in the melee prof. For those purists who likethings as "real" as they can be (although so many things in this game defy much of reality as we know it), I agree with some previous posts that talk about swords having better armor piercing or bleed damage (or even poison).

it could be dependent on cubes

red - heat
green - acid
yellow - electric
white - kinetic

HAHA man we as a community just can't be satisfied can we? cripes it's a damn sword and this isn't ___________ (insert fantasy rpg here) where weapons can have enchantments. personally the only reason the hammer with blast makes sense is that it is mechanically enhanced, otherwise it should have been kinetic as well. HAHA we are one of the only classes that can still solo krayts and we think we need a different damage type to make us stronger? ROFL

we arent the only profession that solo krayts.



anybody with decent armor and flame4 can solo a krayt.



krayts are just mobs in the end.


fighting other players takes a lot more skill and we need the weapons to do it.


if you dont wanna answer the question dont reply.

um......generally the guy with the big ass sword is the one who kills the dragon.



if people could one shot kill like "in the indiana jones movie" then this wouldn't be a roleplaying game now would it?


i am sure you have a point - but i don't know what it is.

Well PvP is what we need help in as a Prof., giving us a cold weapon to pwn krayts even moreso won't help our overall balance.


For PvP we need a stun mace, if they are not going to fix the combat system anytime soon that's all there is to it. TKs outdamage us even moreso w/ mitigation in, as do most PvP fencers with their prenerf/nerf acklay stun batons.


Since claim-to-fame-#3, our mind bleed got nerfed into nothingness, I would like to see the scythe with agood H/A bleed[s].
