Maker Scythes
“Scythes forged from the very steel used to create the Guardian. The blades are engraved with ancient Maker runes, signifying their quality and are sharp enough to cut through stone.”
The Forge Lands –> The Foundry
Bheithir’s Talons
“Found within the very belly of the beast, these scythe blades have festered for a millennia within Bheithir. The enchanted blades fused themselves with her own attributes, creating a weapon of legendary status. Its previous owner is unknown, but the blade’s craftsmanship is unequaled, allowing it to sever with the utmost precision and savagery, whilst burning flesh from bone.”
The Forge Lands –> The Nook : obtained after defeating Bheithir.
Bheithir’s Fire – deals extra fire damage and burns the enemy.
Chaos Fang
“These scythes bear distinctive markings of the Four Horsemen. Known as the Chaos Fangs, the scythes reap a heavy toll amongst any enemies foolish enough to challenge Death. In many ways, the Chaos Fangs resemble the weapon of the Horseman War–the infamously deadly Chaoseater.”
Kingdom of the Dead –> Gilded Arena : reward chest for defeating Gnashor.
THIS WEAPON LEVELS UP ALONG WITH YOU.
Shadow of Death Scythes
“Forged in the darkest vaults of Hell by Demon master smiths, the Shadow of Death double scythes sap the arcane energy from those its jagged edges touch, piercing them with the icy chill of the grave.”
Kingdom of the Dead –> Sentinel’s Gaze –> Boneriven
Black Demise
“Black Demise is a weapon with a long and bloody history amongst the demon lords. Some legends claim that the unnatural rites used to create the weapon have imbued it with a limited form of sentience. Bound with unholy blazing runes of power, Black Demise seizes the inner strength of every opponent and adds it to that of its wielder.”
Kingdom of the Dead –> Soul Arbiter’s Maze : Level 5 – Deception (secret)
Directions : West –> North –> South
Black Heart – restores full health upon execution, increases strength during battle (up to +40 strength).
Goldbringer
“Fashioned by an unknown but truly pragmatic mind, Goldbringer robs all those it strikes not only of their life, but of their coin. Engraved on the blade is the familiar wisdom: “To the Victor Go the Spoils.” “
Lostlight –> The Ivory Citadel
Midas Touch – grants Gilt on most hits.
Angel of Death Scythes
“The Charred Council demanded that the finest smiths of Heaven craft a weapon for the Four Horsemen as tribute to the Riders’ role in maintaining the Balance. The Angel of Death double scythes were forged with the power of light, healing the wielder with every strike made against his enemies.”
Lostlight –> The Ivory Citadel
Crow Scythes
“Shrouded in mystery, much like the Dark Fortress itself. These scythes emit a dark presence, capable of draining the energy of those it strikes and transferring it to the wielder.”
Shadow’s Edge
Demonflame Renders
“Forged in a blast furnace by the demon lord Belial, the Demonflame Renders flare with hellish heat and flame that causes enemies to explode into flames with every strike. Originally meant to serve as a gift to secure favors from Lilith, the Renders were stolen by one of Belial’s many rivals… or so he claimed. Whatever the truth, the scythes disappeared for an age, lost or secreted away. The merchant Ostegoth claims that the scythes are loose, seeking out a new and more worthy owner – perhaps these weapons are possessed of a similar hubris to the Demon Lord who created them.”
Shadow’s Edge –> The Black Stone
Demonfire – causes to explode fire damage upon hitting an enemy.
GnoMAD Scythes
“These weapons were forged for the hand of a swashbuckling rogue who relied more upon luck than his own skills at arms. Bound within each blade is the essence of a trickster spirit, surging with an erratic and unpredictable power when wielded in battle. Each strike has a chance to channel a random elemental effect into its victim, or to simply blast him back with a wave of mischievous force.”
Mail system : rewarded after you collect all four GnoMAD statues.
You Mad? – chance to deal random elemental effect or knockback enemy.
Barbed Defilers
“The Barbed Defilers are a pair of scythes once carried by a dead lord in service to the Deposed King, Argul. The Dead Lord’s name and his fate are lost and unknown, even to the Scribes of the Ivory Citadel. The Barbed Defilers absorbed some of the strange energies within the far reaches of the Abyss. Thus, the blades defile any foe they strike, weakening the enemy. Similarly, the scythes increase in power based on the Arcane strength of their wielder.”
The Crucible : rewarded after completing wave 51-75.
Defile – ???
Guillotine
“Legend states that Guillotine was forged by the makers, a masterwork weapon used in many bloody wars. The craftsmanship of this blade unerringly guides the wielder’s attacks to strike blows of exquisite carnage.”
The Forge Lands –> The Fjord : reward for completing “Sticks and Stones” quest for Blackroot.
Fate – has a higher chance to deal critical damage.
Lifebane
“Argul, the Deposed King indulged in many strange and mysterious whims. One such distraction was the creation of this deadly weapon. It pleased Argul to have his monstrous wyrm imbue this Scythe with the essence of its own source of power – the lifestealing chill of the Abyss.”
The Veil –> The Dark Fortress : obtained after defeating the Ice Giant in New Game +.
Lifebane – freezes the enemy, has a chance to turn enemy into ice block, steals healt from frozen enemies.
Static Blades
“This scythe once belonged to an angel, a messenger tasked with traveling through countless realms. The messenger captured the spirit of a mighty storm within her weapon, channelling the strength of the tempest as a conduit to strike down her foes with swift lightning. In the chaos of the End War, the unknown messenger has vanished, and her weapon has fallen to await a new wielder.”
Kingdom of the Dead –> The Eternal Throne : reward for completing “The Bloodless” quest for Draven in New Game +.
Static Shock – deals shock/lightning damage.
Demon Storm
“The Demon Storm, hewn from relics pried from the Abyss. Unleashed upon the Earth during the Apocalypse, tearing the Demon Legion to many victories amid the End Days. Resistance is futile when the power of a planet’s atmosphere is at the command of the wielder.”
Additional campaigns : The Demon Lord Belial
Town of Ash –> The Underground –> Town of Ash : chest will appear after destroying all fire hydrants in the area.
