Anyone bothered to mess around with this and see if it might prove to be slightly less failure than it already is? I picked up one just because it was so cheap; gonna see what I get as soon as my LS decides to do the augment fights.

[XyonBlade]

Nope, but my brother did just get one from union, i'll make him augment it. And really, the base weapon type doesnt matter whether its scythe or staff, as long as the augments are good for spell casting

I saw an pic on BG. Not sure how it would do against a HQ Elemental Staff...

LOL, I hope you're being coy.

About the only useful stat they could reasonably add to a weapon is fast-cast for a prespell warmup.
Maybe -100hp to give the other races an easier time with sorc ring.
I don't cast blink often enough to waste a slot on conserve mp (any other spells that would benefit?)
Magic damage down might have situational uses, or non elemental resists.

I'm not expecting more than 15% damage, 15% macc, 20% damage down, 10hmp, 10% cure potency, or 10mnd, so whats the point?

10 mab 7% of the time =.7 MAB.

add 3 mab=

3.7 mab with 5 magic acc

HQ staff 15% damage = 25-33 MAB depending on spell / situation gear. (shit gear /nakked may be like 15 mab or something)

magic acc amount unkowen, i seen people say it is an equivlent of 15-30 magic acc or a 15% decrease of resists when your hit rate is around 50%, because of higher acc the less of an impact a perctage is. SE puts a cap in magic acc so if there is some reason you are caped without the staff you will be caped with it. or maybe it gives you 15% acc even if you are cap witch would be a 1% overall increase in acc where a static number acc has no impact ether way when dealing at cap acc.

TDR (w/e this is) version:
just like mythic, just like dejore this is tossed in the same bin, SE is retarded for putting MAB on weapons and waste of space><*

* yayaya mythic is good for one spell every 10 mins if you are not needed for ES sleep or w/e, go epeen? -.-

you forgot 15% damage, 4 mab and 5 int agurment aquillo ftw (enough to challenge and in most cases beat a 200 tp ws from mythic damage for ice spells)

What makes you think I'm a fish?!

yep i met it, def a fish

[shigo]

Actually I think I'm pretty sure it's koi not coy, unless he meant cod which makes more sense...

On topic, the scythe is garbage compared to staff and is only for fooling around with. I can't believe in this day and age questions like this still come up. Is there any hope for society?

No.
To be honest im tried of saying stuff like this over and over again.

how meny threads did i need to compare to that F*** dejore to crap like this? I lost count. then I ended up giving the dejore data for myhtic, and so forth.Then I had to explain when each came out when in other forums in what job needs update the most comparisons how HQ staffs =/= 15 mab -.-

[Terranova]

For the record, I was well aware that the sickle was (most likely) not going to beat out the elemental staves. However, it would be neat if we got something like Fast Cast, Conserve MP, or something that could be used for non-nuking purposes; or something that could actually make it into a not-so-sucky scythe to use for farming. (Is there such a thing?) But so far, I've only seen magic accuracy, magic critical hit rate, magic attack bonus, and all that. Ah well...

[shigo]

Yeah, I'd like to see a BLM scythe with some haste on it to lower that awful delay or other "fun" stats. Oh and for the record I wasn't attacking you Terra ^^
