I think he's saying mixing things like that isn't a good idea. Some people may suffer unintended side effects doing such things.

No, mixing them would be like using coffee to take a sleeping pill, but i wasn't suggesting mixing them.

I'm fine at present, but barely. A liter of doctor pepper and enough monster energy drinks to kill a small dog (probably) are keeping me in a semi-functional state right now.

Question: would a scythe count as an axe skill?

Hrm... I actually don't know... You swing it like an axe, it has a blade like a sword, and a pole like a spear... Still... you go through the same motions when bashing someone with the spear as you do swinging the scythe (or so I imagine, I may be horribly off), so I'd say spear... possibly...   ...or axe... Not sure at all...

Edit: still not sure, but it's not handled the way I thought it was: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gL2_chKPWjE

I guess axe. But it's still not quite accurate. The scythe isn't really that efficient as a weapon, though, now that I look at it... This, on the other hand...
reedit: Better example. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6h-hvf_ZII#t=12m36s

Sorry to hear that, Hanslanda. :( (sarcasm sensors off the scale)    Anything that might make it better?

At this particular moment, I think I need to load up some Total War and slaughter thousands for a little while. I'm probably not going to get a update up tonight, sorry guys. :/

No, just have it have something to do with Spearbreakers. I imagine that killing Spearbreakers' zombies in a first-person mode, with guts and intestines and sweet, sweet gore flying everywhere would be an awesome way to relieve stress... And just be plain fun, too. I actually kind of wish I could do it. :( Just get set down right in the middle of the 300+ zombie siege and start hacking at everything...
repeatedly...
for all eternity...

On the subject of scythes it'd depend on how the blade is shaped. Halberds have all the same general sqalities, and use the axe skill, so if we have it set up as a war scythe instead of a harvester's scythe, the axe skill may be better suited.
