  I despise Reviviving over feathering. It means I'm more likely to get killed again since I now have to use 3 pots instead of 1 to get to a safer HP level. No one ranks Revive anyway, so it's just a worthless skill at this point. It's slower than Feather, uses up a ton of stamina, and requires rank 6 to even give you the same HP level as a feather. There's really no upside to using it at this moment other than "If you're out of feathers, you have something to fall back on."
  
  That's all I see it as: a very last resort.

  
  
  I agree with this entirely.

  the cat soloes so the cat ends up not having to use revive
  the cat does have phoenix feathers though thanks to the many quickslots

  Didn't know Blink stamina reduction was by a definite #, not a %. Still not raising it though 8D

  Exactly my thoughts, and I gg at people being so happy about having a high rank Blink.

  15% less stamina cost is pretty noticable, IMO.
• TA wrote on 2010-11-11 22:15
  It goes from 40 stamina cost to 33 stamina cost. It's super noticeable.

  I just dumped the 600 AP in AGI since I'd rather have more Stamina all the time than have a few less Stamina on a skill that I don't spam too much.

  I doubt an increase in 85 AGI is as significant as a decrease in 7 stamina needed.

  Just a few words, Scythe evie should focus on INT to increase MATK, while the smashes of the scythe are both magical and physical the magical part is the larger part by a large amount!
  also, the magical shield is not as weak as people think it is, it all depends how you get hit by the boss and which boss it is.
  Also, I read in a few guides that AGI affects scythe criticals, yet in your guide you say there is no need to rank it? if AGI indeed affects scythe crit % why not rank AGI mastery to rank A?
  And my advice is to prioretiez magic CRIT and magic mastery when ranking skills.
  Ranking Death label and bloody thread (when it comes out in december 1'st) is also of LARGE importantce, those skills do incredible damage, I have rank A death label and when it crits it dose more dmage then an uncharged stigma hammer.
  Lastly as for light/heavy armor...hmmm I'de say its a waste but I guess thats a matter of choice, I dont plan on getting hit enough to take too much damage that i'll need the defence, when I solo red tyrant I mainly take damage on my shields and even not much of that.
  
  Just my 2 cents, Nice guide overall but id'e really like to know if AGI affects scythe crits or not! if it is I see no reason not to rank and I think should be given high priorety.
  
  P.S, If you wish it I can make videos for you of soloing every boss with scythe including both tyrant battels (though I found staff to be slightly better at soloing blood prince, dont know why but thats just the way it is!)

  The ONLY battle I cant solo with either evie(sychte or staff) or fiona! 3 bosses all extremelly agile that just goof around untill they hit you! I saw there is a way to seperate main boss from his other 2 but never managed to pull it off (or either it was patched so you cant solo pull boss) but ill go try it now again just for the challange of it.

  Yes thats what the game tooltip says but the game tooltip have been known to be wrong and still have some mistakes in it, a more defintive answer will be better.
