I have a nice intimidate/headhit3 five times macro. If I run it 3 times, it kills a rancor. But kills me as well - my mind pool vanishes.
I use brandy and ahrisa. What do you use? Does using a scythe mean no macro-ing of specials?

I use a scythe just fine... of course my swordsman has 1k/1k/1k mind stats, and with two brandies, and an ahrisa, I have no mind cost.

PH has much lower mind cost than a scythe... if your focus is too low, you may be fine with a PH, but not a scythe.

yea i wouldnt use a scythe on anything in pve except for the occasional mob with higher blast than kinetic resistance. the ph's mind cost is so minimal most times it doesnt cost anything.
if you really wanna use a scythe you may wanna look into buying crates of mind powerups which will reduce the mind cost by 33%.

get your focus to 1500. All special mind costs vanish once you hit it.

from my understanding your weapons condition will drop faster if you keep and use a powerup on it most of the time.its ok for weapons you can buy alot of and that are cheaper. but if you have a nice acklay power hammer or something you might now want to drop a powerup on it cause you'll lose it much much quicker.

So the answer is that a scythe needs a mind buff to be fun to use and its power hammer rest of the time.
Thanks all.
Thanks all.

Noooooo!! you silly person, powerup's kills the condition dont do it!! not to a scythe for goodness sake. you should be using 2 brandy, 2 arisha (3 if needed) if you still got issues then take a musician buff, if that isnt enough then you must be a diseased wookie
