Im glad everyone likes the cool new blade 
Some updates to the stats were made based on your feedback and a couple of balance issues...
- We had to slow it down, but its still fast and one ofthe Swordsman's fastest weapons.
- The Mind cost was reduced and its now the lowest cost.
- The range modifer is a lot better - - it goes from -15 to +10 now
- Because we've left it a beefy weapons, its now certified for level 3 Swordsman.
Thanks for the help on Test Center

Scythe blade is rather cool 
But as a fencer (my alt), it would be nice to have some kind of cool Fencer only weapon too
Best one we got is a Tuskan Toilet pipe
Congratz on the cool blade there guys!

Well let's just hope this is the first in a long line of new weapons, it's pretty strange that the highest level weapons for swordsman and fencer were both a power hammer and a gaffi stick respectively - neither profession had a serious blade.
Admittedly scythe certification has been in the 2hs tree for ages without any actual scythes available.
Now I'm determined to get master ranger done and out of the way so I can get my 2hs back up ready for this baby going onto the live servers

Why can't pikemen get a range modifier fix this quickly? Our weapons are -55/-55/-55 and -32/-32/-32 and have been since the beginning of the game!!!
Nice job on the Scythe.

Because this is a new item addition, not a fix to an existing item, there aren't any of them in the game yet, so nothing that actually exists needs altering.

par2, this really isnt a *new* weapon for swordsman, its a certification thats been there since the game has been released. Now they've finally PUT the sycthe in the game. Cant wait to get one once it hits live! Nice work TH and Devs, keep this up and you may just restore some faith in your promises.

The range mods make me want to puke, why must we continually be forced to use theseweapons with the horrific range mods.

I'd kill for a decent pikeman weapon with those range mods. Or at least I'd swing around wildly and not manage to hit anything for one.
