Suggestion for Scythe Build

Hey,

Today i managed to get a 2nd Scythe and now i can breed them.
I would like to ask your opinions on the skill set for a pure S scythe (including talent).

Right now those are the relevant skill books that I managed to obtain for my future S scythe:

-Boulder
-Massive Boulder
-Martyrdom
-Shake

If u got any other skills that are good and i missed them please post them as well.

The only skill im missing is sand storm which im trying to farm it now.
Also wanted to ask, in ladder, is the AI smart enough to cast sandstorm first and then use MB, or he just uses MB right away?

Re: Suggestion for Scythe Build

My scythe has resurrect with sand storm, boulder, massive boulder, and earthquake and is pretty good. If I had PoD, I would consider replacing sand storm, but sand storm increases your dodge rate significantly and comes in handy most of the time.

Erratum:

Sandstom does not increase dodge, it reduces accuracy of non Eaarth & Fire monsters instead.. Blizzard does increase dodge though..

Re: Suggestion for Scythe Build

Double-Bomb
Talent : Resurrect
Skills : POD, Sand Storm
Massive Boulder, Martyrdom
-PoD on Scythe makes it super fast, allowing you to prob martyrdom twice. (& great dmg boost on martyrdom). Sand Storm can be changed to shake/boulder if you have a 2nd monster that can pre-cast sand storm for scythe in ladder.

PVP Hell
Talent : DEF Boost
Skills : Shake, Switch Hit, possibly sand storm or PoD
Boulder, Martyrdom/Iajitsu/Kamikaze/Frenzied
-Partner this with Intimidate/Unnerve Ignightmare or Legendaries w/ Switch Hit or Sand Therapy Behemoth, or SPD Boost Cyg. All of the Boost skills, Intimidate, Unnerve stack so ideally you want to use switch hit then change to stronger element like ignightmare or cygness while at the same time reducing the opponents ATK/MATK or boosting your own defences. Good if you have 2 switch hits.

Personal Build
Talent : Armor2
Skills : Boulder / Massive Boulder / Shake / Martyrdom
Just a good all rounder for pvp & ladder. Part of my 1st team of max levelled monsters.

Re: Suggestion for Scythe Build

For ladder, the best Scythe build in my view is as follows:

Resurrect ability. POD-boulder-massive boulder-martyrdom.
Scythe is faster than Smiter, Cygness, and Pewgway, and so it will cast POD before any of these attack it. It will then use martyrdom and typically one hit KO these monsters and will resurrect with 1 HP. It will then use that 1 HP to use massive boulder (or occasionally boulder) to deal massive damage to the monster or monsters that follow any of these monsters.

My Scythe as built above has saved me numerous times in the ladder and sometimes has even defeated 3 or 4 of my opponent's monsters.

It is also great for PVP when opponents bring in Smiter, Cygness, or Pewgway thinking they have the win in the bag.

I have surprised many people using the above built Scythe.
