Scythe








Scythes are used to harvest multiple plants simultaneously, including tall grass or crops.

Creation

The raw material used to create the tool head determines the crafting process required:

  • Knapping: Stone scythes cannot be crafted by knapping.
  • Casting: Knives cannot be crafted by casting.
  • Smithing: Iron, Bronze alloy and copper axes can be made by smithing, which requires 1 ingot.
    • Note: Knives can also be smithed from gold and silver.

Table: Tool Tiers

Material Durability Material Tier
Copper 450 2
Tin Bronze 600 3
Bismuth Bronze 750 3
Black Bronze 900 3
Iron 1350 4
Gold 150 2
Silver 187 2

Usage

The scythe harvests 6 plants in a 3x3 area and is the most efficient way to harvest plant resources, including grass and crops when farming.

Harvesting

To harvest plants: place the tool in an active hotbar slot and press or hold left mouse button until the block breaks and the block or resource drops.

  • Special: Grass on soil blocks does not regenerate after harvesting with a scythe. Grass on farmland blocks will regenerate.
  • Note: The scythe has no mining speed variant. The metal used to create the item affects durability, but has no effect on the rate of harvest.

Combat

Attacking a mob (melee combat): place the tool in an active hotbar slot and press or hold left mouse button to strike the target.

  • Note: Though all tools may be used as weapons, the scythe has no known attack power or HP value per hit. Inquiring players who decided to test this item have determined that that a player using the scythe as a weapon can kill a surface drifter. This combat requires at least 20 attack actions and the player testing the scythe stated "I can kill a surface drifter with a scythe... but even an iron scythe has no range and no power." Also, using a scythe as a weapon does not impact the item durability.

Crafting

The scythe is not used in any current game crafting.

Storage

Tools are items commonly used by players and are generally equipped in the hotbar. Scythes do not stack in inventory or when placed in containers. The tool rack is a specialized wall mounted storage container that allows players to store tools. Tool racks are made of 6 sticks in the crafting grid and once placed, can store 4 tools each. Tools are placed from an active hotbar slot and removed using the right mouse button to an empty space in the hotbar.
