In the current meta, the Scythe serves as a dedicated close-quarters melee weapon. It delivers 90 base damage per strike, requiring 3 direct hits to eliminate a full-health opponent at point-blank range. As a melee armament, it operates without ammunition consumption or reload cycles, providing reliable continuous strikes in close-range skirmishes.
