Scythe

Scythe is a melee weapon that costs 120 Sheriff Stars and doesn't need ammo.

This is, in the long run, an excellent coin saver, and is best used against close ranged foes like Nightwalkers and Female Assassins, though can be also very effective against gunners due to its high damage. It is a very poor choice against werewolves, gargoyles, and especially enemies that levitate such as Witches, although with enough skill, you can kill these with a scythe and leave unscathed. The scythe, once wielded leaves you with little control for about 1 second, so swing wisely, and do not use it in places where it is hard to move!

It can also be used while mounted on a horse. When you triggers the attack button, you will wield it to the left first, and then to the right.

You can also "charge" it by pressing down on the attack button. If you release the button after a few seconds, you will perform two cyclones and finish off by slamming the it on the ground.

When the attack button is triggered while behind cover, you will come out from the cover and slash twice according to whichever end of the cover he emerges from.

Statistics

 * Damage: Very high (if upgraded), making it is a deadly weapon. In multiplayer, if fully upgraded it deals 216 HP and on a "headshot" deals 498-614 HP. It's multiplayer bar shows a 98% full damage statistic, meaning it could do up to 1100 or more damage.

Trivia

 * Though it is a "poor choice" against werewolves, gargoyles, and levitating enemies, it is still able to inflict damage and kill them.
 * It is slightly harder to kill enemies while mounted, as attacks will often miss the target. One strategy is to time your attacks.
 * You get a 10% speed boost once drawn for 2.1 seconds and a 5% speed boost for all the other time.
 * Damage is greatly increased in multiplayer, sometimes even more than 700 damage.
 * It takes much wider range than the Hellraisers to kill your enemies one by one.
 * When on a horse, switching to an empty weapon and the a scythe will make you stand on your horse while holding the scythe. Then, pressing the attack button will make you hold the scythe in front of your face.

Bugs

 * The currency used to purchase it and Demon Thrower were swapped, which allowed it to be purchased for 120 coins (less than Rusty Gun!), and the Demon Thrower to be bought for 150,000 stars.
 * The bug above causes your XP, coins, stars, and items to be wiped. However, when entering multiplayer matches, it is given to you. Then, it disappears when a different weapon is bought from the shop.
