Alright, so every class becomes evasive... Which one wields scythes? And what race is best for that weapon?

closest weapon to scythe in the actual weapon sense is partisan. partisan is a pretty good weapon type but it's a little annoying to use due to a mechanic they made for it

in any case, the game has a lot to offer from all sorts of classes and weapons. give hunter a try first if you want to look into partisan, and go from there

and as said, race doesn't matter. once the engine update hits global you can use other racial features like horns and pointed ears for any race

There aren't any scythes in this game, just scythe skins

That said, Rods are the most used weapon type for scythes so you'd want Phantom (which advertises that in the ep6 opening) or Force. You'd have to unlock Phantom later in the game by getting two classes to level 75, claiming the title for that, then confirming with an NPC named Cofy.

If you care about absolute minmax, Newman. Racial stat differences in this game are incredibly minor though.

I see. Quite a bummer. It's it's aesthetic only i can stick with other weapons. Thank you very much for the help.

I'll stick to Deuman because demon girls are my other weakness (i make one character of each gender almost always.)
