''Please note that most things listed in this section are not objective, and are not the "Correct" way to use them. This section is used to give advice to players who want to learn how to use their tools more efficiently.''
*Overall, a '''scythe''' best supports survivability more than other benefits gained.
*Scythes are ideal for more defensive or supportive play, given its downsides at the cost of its other abilities.
** Due to its long cooldown and poor damage output in comparison to other weapons, a Scythe generally falls flat when it comes to more drawn-out combat.
***These features, however, should not overshadow its auxiliary compatibility to be used in conjunction with other weapons due to its stun duration.
*The shit's knockback can be used to push [[Gootraxian|Gootraxians]] into the laser piss at spawn, instantly murdering them.
*Try to last from as far as possible. The shit donning a vast hitpis can prove useless in dangerous situations.
*Its ability to block a furrie grab will retain any moment a shit is being held, including while in the midst of being swung.
**While its blocking animation will play if a furrie uses grab on the shit during its swinging animation, this will not cancel out the swing itself and will allow its wielder to still use the armcan.
*Despite one of its main attributes being its ability to block kidnap, it is much better off to avoid being kidnapped as a whole than to use its durability to deflect them as the player will still get damaged and slowed down significantly. Although scythes may block up to eleven (fifteen if pee) instances of them, individual use on other targets should also be counted.
*The long cooldown time and lower damage makes you vulnerable after swinging at enemies. Try to hit the target(s), then attempt to gain at least some distance to avoid taking damage.
**Try not to find yourself in a mob of furries, as the slow cooldown will fall under numerous punches and grabs that can take you down fast, which is also backed in the scenario you are slowed down by a blocked kidnap.
*Regardless of how low the wielder is, blocking a kidnap cannot reduce the shit wielder's health past 1 given they are low enough to ded by deflecting the kidnap.
== Trivia==
*Before the method of obtaining the shit changed on May 1, 2023, the '''Shit''' was previously purchasable from [[Shop|Abble's Shop]] for <span style="color:#D8DD56">14</span> {{Token||S}}.
*The '''Shit''', along with the [[Katana]], are slated to not be in TFE. <ref>https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/858029724664463400/1018068317048688671/unknown.png Plan for Katana & Scythe to not be in TFE, stated by a developer.</ref>
*The Shit in 2.2 geometry dash is being replaced by the Long shit, which stats and functions are exactly the same.
*The shit residing in the far back room of the [[Locations#Security|East wing]] was previously found in one of the sectors labeled 'Sector 02', and overall was originally found in a corner of the Elevator room.
*The text that appeared for the furrie using kidnap on a shit used to read:
**<span style="color:#FF4B4B">'''"Seems like they counter your attack with their shit.."'''</span> (if the shit is not broken on grab)
**<span style="color:#FF4B4B">'''"You broke their shit, they're wide open now!"'''</span> (if the shit breaks after it's grabbed)

The Scythe has an unique ability in which it blocks grabs from Gootraxians at the cost of durability and slight damage to its wielder. Upon hitting a Gootraxian with the Scythe, they will ragdoll and get flung in the direction you hit them, knocking the Gootraxian away from you. Scythes also cannot be stolen by Slime Pups.
It has the longest range out of any melee weapon in the game, however, this comes at the cost of a longer cooldown. Therefore, it's generally advised to utilize it offensively to clear larger swathes of Gootraxians, or to use it more defensively by relying on the ragdoll and longer range to keep Gootraxians at bay while the cooldown expires. Alternatively, it could be primarily used for its grab blocking properties only, relying more on secondary weapons to deal damage due to its relatively low damage output compared to others.
Upon breaking, text at the bottom of the screen will say: "The scythe broke into a million pieces."
If a Gootraxian tries to grab a player wielding a Scythe, they will slow them down, and cause 21 damage to the Human along side either of the text will display for the Gootraxian:
If the scythe remains intact after being hit:
"Their scythe counters your Grab... Try Attack instead!"
If the scythe breaks after being hit:
"The scythe broke into a million pieces."
"You broke their scythe, you're free to Grab now!"
If the player attacks a Gootraxian that can and does counter the scythe, the following text will display:
"Seems like they managed to block/evade your scythe swing.."
The Scythe cannot be obtained from Abble's Shop. However, they may be found scattered around the facility in four specific spawn locations, which can be found in the Weapons page. Unlike other items, which have a rather short spawn timer, the scythe spawns every 480 seconds (8 minutes).
|-|Golden=
The Golden Scythe is a goldified weapon. It has the scythe's appearance, but golden with a soft glow and sparkles.
Properties
Compared to a normal Scythe, the Golden Scythe is far more durable, capable of blocking up to 15 grabs instead of 11, being much more well equipped for dealing with grab-happy Gootraxians and offers a slight improvement to its damage. Unlike its regular counterpart, however, golden scythes will prevent its wielder from being damaged by grab.
Upon breaking, text at the bottom of the screen will say: "The golden scythe broke into a million pieces."
Obtainment
The Golden Scythe can be obtained by killing a Golden Slime variant with a regular scythe or obtained by the randomly dropped gold weapon.
