Yeah, that sucks. Sorry to hear it. The only thing I can suggest is to sell the speed sliced ones to people to whom speed is more important than damage, which means people still working their way up the tree.
Also, keep in mind that if you are not at the speed cap with a weapon, a 30% speed slice is the same as getting 30% more average damage, so all is not necessarily wasted.
But the argument about the speed slice adding damage applies, if you are not at the speed cap. And considering the cost of speed tapes, most of us would not be.
So, a 30% speed slice, with the range modifiers of the Scythe is still very good. Try it out and see.
Nice to see a post from Kupaasi the lovely gentleman that made my Scythe for me. Now that got a decent speed slice and I do two hits before my first hit's animation has even finished. 2.1 Speed.
On the Flip side of the Speed vs. Damage slice argument... A speed sliced weapon will lose it's condition quicker as you might be doing more damage per second with a speed sliced weapon but you're using it more so the condition goes quicker. So it's swings and roundabouts really... and as far as the Scythe goes, it's quick enough already that a speed slice is unecessary.
