Recommended download (for Vintage Story 1.22.3):
WarScythe-v1.0.5.zip  1-click install

Adds the war scythe, a weapon that excels at keeping enemies at range, albeit tricky to aim in very close combat.

The war scythe has a mediocre rate of use, however it has a very long range, which allows for damaging single targets without allowing them to attack back.

 

Damage ranges from 2.5 hp in copper tier to 4.3 hp in steel tier. Currently all types have damage tier 0 and a range of 4 meters.

 

The war scythe is crafted from a scythe head and a stick arranged horizontally.

 

Has compatibility with SoldierSpy - Brassworks, and Silly Aluminum.

I quenched an iron scythe blade a few times to boost durability only to find the war scythe didn't get any buffs :(

Sorry about that, should be fixed now. Honestly, I'd remove the warscyhe and cheat in another scythe head and stick, I forgot to fix this bug on this mod when it was fixed in my gladius mod.

Looks nice, will be fun to have a way to keep the rift horrors at bay without having to use bows.

KingShmandrew Thank you for the kind words!

MarterKlavee Thank you for the timely response. I was only asking due to the fact that id like to add it to my current world, but i have combat overhaul installed and id rather not break the save lol. I'll definitely be bookmarking this mod though for a future playthrough. it looks really good :)

KingShmandrew I honestly don't know, I haven't played with the Combat Overhaul mod yet. This is a content mod, so it doesn't do anything with the core game code since I'm not that experienced enough yet, which looking at the mod page for Combat Overhaul seems to suggest that the custom damage types won't work with the war scythes. I also don't know if the collider hit detection will function, and if everything does work then the balance may be off.

I guess your could try testing it in a seperate creative mode world to prevent anything bad happening.

does this work with combat overhaul?
