3rd form starter scythe question.

Post by thehellwithdat »

Does anyone know how to get another Scythe Shouxiao? (The scythe that you start off with when you unlock 3rd form) I have the Spin Gai Gu+5 and the Broad Legged+5 (the weapons that Haseo uses throughout his "career" as the Terror of Death) and I was hoping to make a Scythe Shouxiao+5. If not, is there a lvl 50 scythe that i can +5 to stack on to the Scythe Shouxiao that anyone knows about/knows how to get? Thanks in advance, everyone.

I cant really be sure, but try checking low level dungeons (by low I mean low 50's) And if you see a guild shop open check them out. Do trades as well, sometimes you get lucky. I myself have found some strange deals. Im not sure if this is normal but, Alkaid had a level 93 sythe for trade right after her first mission. But if you just like the way the sythe looks and want a powerful version, than I would try to get the Doppelgangers Sythe as it looks just like the starter sythe except its pure black.

It is until  you max out it's power in V3 thorugh Virus Cores. Then The lost scythe is actually somewhat better.

You don't. Not in this game at least. Like the Spin Needle, you can't find it in any area, but unlike that weapon, no guild shop has been known to sell it either, so as no one actually trades it, the Shouxiao should be treated the same as a rare weapon.

The Shouxiao is the lowest level scythe tied with Heine's Zero. The lowest level +5 weapon you can get is the Scythe Hook.

And don't trade for Alkaid's Drain Hidaru either. You likely won't be able to use it until (after) the end of the game (depending on if you overlevel), there are much better sources for Niku Baku Tongue and Mantis Nail (both of which are on it, making her Hidaru crazy expensive to trade for), and you can just plain buy a Hidaru+5 at the knights Guild shop at some point since they sell Hook, Bite, and Hidaru (everything is +5 at that shop but their custom accessory). I mean, it's LV. 93, you have at least 24 hours of storyline play time if you don't hurry, and the shop's a relatively common sight. Not particularly difficult to get.

Really she just has it to drain you of cash and resources if you're greedy enough to go for the trade. She did hate Haseo before she got to know him, after all.

I don't. Players aren't shops. It's just something you have to do. I'm just glad you don't have to jump through hoops to trade like you did in IMOQ. I have to collect 25 more burning oils? 10 more golden axes? Yay.
