Really nice guide, I was just wondering... what about scythe mastery itself? Is that just a given for maxing out, or was it just not mentioned? Thanks!

It was just not mentioned. It's not a priority unless you want to equip things like heavy armor (for the weight decrease). You would probably only want to rank it to C to get Bloody Thread and then get it as high as your equipment needs it to be.

Ok, thanks. Also, are they going to look into the glitch where in random boss battles your scythe uses staff attacks and doesn't allow scythe skills?

Not that anyone here would know, but they claim to be working on it.
It's also not random, it's due to lag.
Nexon says they need more information, so be sure to send tickets when it happens.

If you are in a party, you could try committing suicide because you can't help your team at all when you are using staff attacks that tickle.

I'm actually not sure why I didn't include that... I guess I need to add it along with golem mastery.

I'm a bit new to the vindictus world so I might not understand things much but i got some questions.
1. Can you use the skill Revive with a scythe? and if so, should you rank it and to where?
2. Some people say Critical hit is good, some say it's not. They said you can still use the skills even with the knock back it gives, only down effect is using LLR. Also it is good for downing bosses. Can someone give me like the pros and cons of it and tell me if i should rank it up?

I'm 99% sure that Revive is a staff only skill.
As for Crit hit, there was already a large discussion about it. Bottom line is, it's possible that the knock back will send the enemy outside of your skill range, but that would only happen for the trash mobs, which isn't that much of a big deal. And the added damage to bosses as well as the knockdown would be substantial.
Then again, the normal scythe attacks aren't really where your damage dealing is at, so the small damage bonus of crits wouldn't help that much.
Bottom line, it's up to you. The damage increase from crits wouldn't be substantial, but the increased knockdown for bosses *might* counterbalance it.

Yes you can use Revive with a Scythe. Rank it to whatever you feel you want into it. It lowers the cooldown and resses with higher health. Eventually you'd want to max it, of course. But it isn't a very high priority.

Read what it says in the guide, it's pretty clear. You do
not want Critical Hit. At all.

Just curious, do you have a scythe? Scythe normal attacks deal more than twice the damage of other normal attacks. Against bosses with really high defense, doing all 4 normal attacks will be equivalent to a smash.
