Salvageable

Firstly, I <3 this scythe. Whacking people with a stick is just what I always wanted (and no I'm actually not being sarcastic)! One question though. When I attempt to "use" my salvage kit on some (all?) of the WoC greens, it indicates that they are salvageable. I <3 this scythe enough that I don't wanna attempt to salvage (yes, with an expert/perfect kit) and break it, but does anyone have any experience with this? Also, I edited this comment just to put my signature in. Just FYI :) 69.249.223.63 18:36, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

Can't say that I have, but it wouldn't surprise me if you could replace the mods on this green weapon. After all, Hearts of the North introduced a green that can be remodded, Keiran's Bow. Gaudy Gourd God 18:37, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

I just got one, so far: I can't seem to replace the inscription (though I tried with a highly salvageable inscription, I had none other handy), and when I took a perfect salv kit to it, it lit up, I accepted, and the game informed me that I could salvage it for materials, and that was it. There was no option to remove the inscription. 173.67.45.207 03:09, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Trivia

There is a martial art that uses a Bo Staff as Martial Weapon(much like this scythe unlike the real staff which shoots projectiles). This should be noted, but must hear more opinions first. Kingmor 23:28, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

Gasp! Weapons in games are based on weapons irl?! Tbh, I don't think that's really worth posting as trivia. EtariP sdrawkcaB ehT 00:58, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

I think it might be in this case, since the irl martially used Bo Staff is used as a magical tool in Guild Wars, except for this hilarious case. I'm sure Donatello thinks the same way. —ZerphaThe Improver 15:18, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Disagree, no trivia needed. We know that smacking something with a stick will hurt it, and that's essentially what a bo-staff is; a stick you smack people with.--99.224.196.70 18:49, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

baton twirling! :D

my favorite thing is to use a derv with an ias and you are a professional baton twirler (yes, guys can do it too ^^) <3 06:44, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

yeah it does look like she's holding a broom or something, but i think it'll look pretty cool during fight animations. i want one too just to see it. does anyone have a video of this one in battle? ive been dreaming of a martial staff for a long time. now if we get escrima sticks as dagger skins, ANET can have my money -Sef326 15:40, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

My monk, ritualist and elementalist could use hammers and scythes with staff stats and skins working like that for whwn I go with PBAoE builds. It would look awesome. MithTalk 23:40, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

And just like that, I realized why I always thought something wasn't quite right with the way a dervish wielded a scythe. They fight like they have a Bo or Naginata. Nice video. Now I want one too. It looks like the animation was designed for this weapon. 97.71.72.184 06:53, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

Anet have lost their fucking minds. 1) that god damn clipping... THAT CLIPPING. 2) how does a bo staff manage to perform scythe attacks? Crippling sweep? Rend?

Have you ever seen a trained person using a bo? They can hit you in the ankle and make you trip and limp. And how do you trwo fireballs out of s stick, anyways? It doesn't have to make real sense. It just have to look cool. MithTalk 19:32, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

Trip and limp? A staff can be absolutely lethal! Skull crack is more like it. The only thing I would change about this weapon is to change the damage type to blunt damage, like the jite "sword" 97.71.72.184 04:03, 6 March 2012 (UTC)

Dear Anet,

You, um, *cough* seem to be forgetting something.... :) Kormon Balser 00:10, 7 March 2012 (UTC)

How does this not BONK?

Colossal Pick, stab cause two handed pick-axe hammer. Jitte, bonk cause blunt thwappy thing. Piercing Axe, stab like name not slash like axe. How does this "scythe" slash not BONK? It thwappy thing u slap foes in ankles... it has no sharp edges. Durp da durp (talk) 21:04, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
