This gigantic scythe has long been a prized weapon among the Lycanthrope tribe of fiends. As its name suggests, its design was inspired by the natural phenomenon of the solar eclipse. The roots of the weapon can be traced back to an ancient sacrifice ritual. When the king of an ancient Lycanthrope tribe was overthrown, his body was tossed into a vat of molten Wootz steel, also know as Dasmascus steel. From this steel, the scythe was forged. After being hammered into rough but solid shape, the blade of the scythe was quenched by repeatedly plunging it into the bodies of living human beings. It is said that it took a full nine days for the scythe to cool completely. One would think that the characteristic grain pattern of Damascus steel should be visible on the scythe’s surface, but at present such a texture is nowhere to be found. Hayabusa cared little about the texture of the scythe or even the history; the only thing he’s worried about is how long it’s going to take to wash the blood off after massacring his enemies in this video… Music: Danger – Black Milk

  1. Gigameth89 says:

    Nothing compares to the falcons talons. This is my 2nd favorite weapon, because nothing beats the falcons talon, X button counter.

  2. Ninjamonkey46 says:

    sigma looks different

  3. bubbaXzone says:

    my fav are the daggers. IT’s kinda hard with certain enemies but I love the speed and the moves are a-some!

  4. NingyoAijin says:

    What I don’t like about the scythe in this game is that its combos strike vertically at weird angles so it’s incredibly awkward to aim. To be honest I would prefer the lunar staff for crowd control (Still the scythe for large bosses, though)

  5. redassasain18 says:

    this is the best weapon in the game hands down. 5/5

  6. Juigijaredjb says:

    Is it me or does the game get easier once you get the Scythe? I love it!

  7. MEGAS1LORD1DEVIN says:

    5/5

  8. HARDMAN360 says:

  9. SenorSpaceCowboy says:

    He asked whats the name of the combo at 0:07

  10. SageRuffin says:

    Pfft. I sucked something awful when I made this. I’ve no doubt that you can easily out-perform anything I did in this video in time.

  11. simplethunder says:

    I’ve bought this game a few weeks back and I totally love it. I’m still busy doing PotW, and I still semi-buttonbash, but that’s changing slowly now. Seeing these kind of vids really inspire me to learn my combos better and such. I’m pretty sure that when I finally get to PotMN I’ll get my rimpies pulled out through my throat though. Nice skills :-) fun to watch.

  12. SageRuffin says:

    Chapter 6, story-related (meaning you can’t miss it).

  13. mina319 says:

    where do you find it

  14. cmontieltv says:

    U know what i most like in this game, the fact that u can kill one motherfucker black ninja like 2 or 3 time before he touch the ground, AWESOME!!!

  15. SageRuffin says:

    English please?

    Fortunately for you, I still remember this little bit from school. I can’t recall the name, but I can tell you how to do it: XXXXY,YXY. The YXY is optional as it’s a bit of a standalone combo attack.

  16. HARDMAN360 says:

    cómo se llama el combo del 0:07???

  17. mymsong says:

  18. SageRuffin says:

  19. SageRuffin says:

    Yeah, you’d think so, wouldn’t you?

  20. NintendoMegaDrive says:

  21. SageRuffin says:

    River Styx Drop: XXXXXYXY

    Alternate: ->YXY

  22. Galenin says:

  23. ploxerdon says:
