Made some the other day with base yellow cubes & paste, came out to 2.6 speed 194-334 damage. If you have 7 cubes & 7 pastes you can get two scythes made from one use of the schematic.
I'm not sure if you understand this already, but a 12 point smith isn't going to make a weapon that's faster or does more damage than a 10 point smith.
Yeah I figured that they wouldn't be faster or more dmg, but won't the range modifiers be better?
Yes,12-pointsmiths can put theirextra points into Accuracy. You should make sure the smith you use knows you want him/her to do this; a lot smiths end up putting their extra points into Condition, unless asked to do otherwise.

The schematic is a 2 use schematic. There is a way using 2 sets of 7 cubes or 2 sets of 6 looted geo sword cores, to make 4 scythe by using those 2 uses to make 2 manufacturing schematics of 2 each, thus giving you a total of 4 scythe.

Four..
You will need: Six looted Geonisian cores (dont waste your time unless they're UBER)
Or Seven Cubes x 2 sets.
Or Seven cubes x 2 sets
AND seven solid agents x 2 sets.
You do factory runs on the cores and get 6 identical x 2 sets.
Then you make a mfg schematic. 2 cores get eaten, two cores left makes 2 scythes. Repeat and you have two sets of 2 identical scythes.
Now hope for a premium damage slice and retire to Kadaara...

So when you say 6 identical x 2 sets do all 12 of those cudes have to have the same serial??? or just the same stats??

I have been reading many posts about scythes. I understood them as the following:
*** You need to buy Yellow Cubes/sollidifying agentsin batches of 7 identical(or any uneven number, and not 1)to be the most profitable. This is because you have to do a factory run with the geo sword cores, and you waste the first yellow cube on the schematic.
*** With 7 same serial cubes you can make 3 scythesusing 3 schematics. OR you could make 2 scythes of the same schematic, usingonly thefirst use to create the schematic and crafting the others in the factory. Since the schematics are ** very ** rare, this seems like the best choice.
*** Scythe schematics have 2 uses.
*** Every character can do the quest only once (or twice with a reset of allquests)
What I am trying to figure out is the price for the scythes (in addition to their stats), unsliced and sliced.
Thanks you all.......

that's different on each server
sometimes i have to pay 600k for a schematic and other times it's 1mil same with the cubes it depends on who's buying
and well recently i sell all my scythes in 1 hour for 900k-1,5miland the max a set of cubes or agents can go is 7 sothat's 6cores ( 3use 3scythe or 1use 2scythe)

Thanks, but do you think the creation of a schematic is better, due to the fact the can only be acquired once?

Schematic: 2 uses.
Each schyte you want to make take 2 cores wich in turn take 1 cube and 1 (optional) agent each, so 2 cubes and 2 agents per schyte.
7 cubes/agents make 6 identical cores (one for the schematic).
2 of those 6 cores goes to a schematic, and the remaining 4 into 2 identical factory produced schytes, using one of the two schematic uses.
Repeat for the remaining schematic useand you have 4 schytes from one schematic.

And with the Planet Record Keeper in Mos Eisley you can rest your quests and can get 2 Scythe Schematics.
