Not to be confused with the first game's version, the Harvester's Scythe.
The Harvester's Scythe is a returning Uncommon item in Risk of Rain 2. It provides 5% critical strike and heals you for 8 HP everytime you land a critical attack. Each stack increases the health regeneration by 4 points.
The Harvester's Scythe is a very powerful item, since it provides both health regeneration and additional damage in form of its boost to the critical strike chance of the player.
Contrary to the item's tooltip not every attack regenerates the same amount of health. MUL-T's Nailgun ability only regenerates a quarter of the stated health regeneration.
(MUL-T) Visually the Harvester's Scythe is not placed anywhere.
