Description

Attacks with this large scythe, normally used for crop harvesting, are effective at breaking past shields.

The magnificent sharp curved blade instills fear in opponents. Perhaps it is their survival instinct at work.

Skill: Stance
Enter a stance that embroils the blade in a terrible black flame. Normal attack to perform an extraordinary spinning sweep, or strong attack for a downwards slam that expels bursts of fire.
