Talk:Scythe
From Guild Wars Wiki
The scythe is one of the most broken weapons in the game and the fact that the Dervish can use it, makes it even more broken. Why bother playing a warrior, when a Dervish can do everything three times better? Nicky Silverstar 18:25, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
Even though the scythe is a very powerfull weapon its not limited to the use of a dervish primary a warrior could come in with scythe mastery and strength and do extreame damage to multiple enemy with the added bonus of the armor penatration and the bosted armor of the warrior will make him harder to take down then a dervish.
Even with out the scythe or the derv secondary, along comes a hammer warrior BOOM! KNOCK DOWN boom again boom boom boom boom damage knock down damage knock down boom boom dead.
Not much your scythe can do if the warrior keeps you on the floor with his hammer huh? Not to say the warrior is beter or the dervish is beter, all the profesion are/ are almost balanced and depending how you play you could beat anything with anything.

Yes the scythe is a very damaging wepon but its not the holy grail.--Atrix 16:24, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
- Well, it does make my elementalist obsolete. My guildie does 80+ damage each hit, to three targets. I use my AoE spell and do what...not even 80 damage to three targets combined...and I am weaker in defense too. Playing alongside a dervish just makes me feel...useless. They can do everything, and they can do everything extremely well too. Nicky Silverstar 19:52, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- I agree. I would like to have the weapon slightly dulled (perhaps 12-28, to make up for it), but keep the additional damage from the various skills the same. Also, do multiple hits with the Scythe all have a chance to critical? If so, I'd would like that either taken out, or at least taken down a few notches. --People of Antioch talk

You will rarely see Hammer warriors now in the metagame for both pve and pvp and even if they have the potential to keep you knock down, it will not happen due to the slow build up of adrenline with hammers so the scythe mastery is far superior than any of the warrior weapon attributes.William Wallace 03:57, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
