OK I'm trying to make a really good weapon for PvP and PvE.
Recently looted 7 matching yellow cubes from the geo cave (17 min/13 max)
Also recently looted 7 matching solidifying agents (max 17 I think)
Originally I was going to use these cubes in a Dxr6b rifle, but after talking to a guildmate he said I might be better off making a scythe.
I know these components could be used to make two scythes (better chance of a good damage slice)
Also the damage is reversed. Will this get me into trouble (Will the min be higher than the max on these when a scythe is made?)
I know I can get them reversed, but do I need to?
Is this the best option for me?
Any advice is appreciated.
BTW I'm a master sword/master rifleman, TK 4-3-0-4
Thanks in advance

My scythe, white cubes crafted cores,no solids is about 312 max.
Add in your +13 cubes and +17 solids, we have 342 max. Speed will probably be 2.6.

Getting 7 identical cubes is far more rare than getting 2 identical cubes (only 2 identical are required for the DXR-6b rifle), so I'd use the 7 identicalsfor the scythes if I were you. Save the rifle for when you aren't so lucky to run across that many identicals.
You don't need to get the min/max reversed. The damage range on the scythes is far enough apart that you don't need to worry about the min being higher than the max at all. That's only a problem for acklay bones in stun batons, as far as I know.

I'd definitely use these in a scythe. With 7 cubes and 7 solidifying agent, you can actually make 6 identical geonosian sword cores if you have a geonosian sword core schematic That means you can make 3, not 2, scythe, granted you'll need another schematic, or you can use those 6 sword cores to make a manufacturing schematic for your scythe and still have one use left over of your looted scythe schematic. You could hope to get 7 more cubes and agents and make another manufacturing schematic to get a total of 4 scythe from your one looted schematic. FYI, my white cubed crafted cores without agent comes out at 32/32 (forget the speed) and the finished scythe came out at 2.7 302 max damage, so you can probably add your agent and yellow cube modifiers to that and get a ballpark of what you can expect for your crafted unsliced scythe, bla bla bla resources are different for each server /end disclaimer.

As a fellow Scyllian, go with a Scythe. Cubes will be wasted in a DXR6 as the condition of the riffle will be utterly low without Green Cubes. And believe me, you don't want to waste those yellow cubes in a PVE weapon.
