Cause they are kinetic dmg instead of the blast dmg we have on our Hammer. We have Kinetic Dmg on the Grooved Sword as well but the min/max dmg on the scythe is much better.

They are FAST.. have better ham costs than power hammers and better range mods.. also have decently high MIN damage and max.. they have medium AP too

Mine is like:
170-293
2.7 delay
29%wound
-8
+11
-8
H49
A79
M43

Somthing finally replaced my 2handed curved sword

My scythe is 256-445 and is a much better PvP weapon than my powerhammer. Hitting that speed cap makes a big difference and the narrow damage range minimizes the damage mitigation. Finally, the accuracy of most hammers is atrocious, from -30 to -17 on average, compared to the scythe's.


But that's all besides the point. It just looks really cool.

Actually, I'd take my scythe over my power hammer in most any pvp case. In pve I'd use the hammer over the scythe. The scythe has a higher min damage than the hammer, is speed capped at the master sword level, has better to hit, and less disagreeable ham costs.
