Not everyone wants to bother with dungeons in every run, and not everyone finds them as easy as you seem to judging by your comment.
I’d also contest “easiest,” mines level 1 is certainly easier than the quarry mine. :P
I priced this 25,000 because I compared it to the dark sword—mostly because the dark sword is more than just a damage-dealer like most swords, it has the extra life-steal effect. The scythe also has an extra effect past damage-dealing—being a farming tool. What would you think it’s worth? If I get enough comments about the price I might go back and add a config that lets you change the price
A config seems like the easiest, best solution for the price. The golden scythe works just as well as the starting scythe (which can't be lost) and does a paltry sum of damage compared to much cheaper and more advanced weaponry attainable past level ~50 in the mines. 25,000 for that is highway robbery. If you have 25,000 gold to shell out for a golden scythe, you've gotta have the equipment to just go through the one-floor quarry dungeon yourself and get it for free.
The golden scythe actually gives you a 75% chance to get hay from a swipe, instead of 50% like the base scythe.
If I’m honest, I primarily made this mod for myself halfway through my no-mines challenge run because I wanted that hay boost without having to ruin my challenge run for it. (Yes, I have indeed beat the quarry mine before in previous runs.) I decided to post it on the off chance anyone else would want the scythe without mining.
I did not take into account its use as a weapon whatsoever aside from basing the pricing off the Dark Sword, and making sure that weapons that were guaranteed to do less damage than the scythe were cheaper than the scythe. But I was mostly focusing on the extra hay effect because that’s what I was concerned about, hence me bumping it up to Dark Sword price levels. If I understand you correctly, you seem to mostly be concerned about damage and that there are much more effective sources of damage that are free. Figured I should explain where I’m coming from.
I’ll go back and add a config for prices sometime, thanks for the suggestion!
