Ninja Gaiden 2 Weapon Exhibition Vol. 3: Eclipse Scythe

This gigantic scythe has long been a prized weapon among the Lycanthrope tribe of fiends.

As its name suggests, its design was inspired by the natural phenomenon of the solar eclipse. The roots of the weapon can be traced back to an ancient sacrifice ritual. When the king of an ancient Lycanthrope tribe was overthrown, his body was tossed into a vat of molten Wootz steel, also know as Dasmascus steel. From this steel, the scythe was forged. After being hammered into rough but solid shape, the blade of the scythe was quenched by repeatedly plunging it into the bodies of living human beings. It is said that it took a full nine days for the scythe to cool completely.

One would think that the characteristic grain pattern of Damascus steel should be visible on the scythe's surface, but at present such a texture is nowhere to be found.

Hayabusa cared little about the texture of the scythe or even the history; the only thing he's worried about is how long it's going to take to wash the blood off after massacring his enemies in this video...

@oioioijellyroll

Thnaks SageRuffin. What i meant by Ryu's costumes was, i noticed sometimes when i watch the game on you tube i noticed Ryu wears different outfits at differnt chapters of the game, for e.g black, red, gold,etc. I was wondering how i could change Ryu outfits when i play. Also how do you do the 360y with the lunar staff?

@cedric4real

Hayabusa's various outfits are unlocked whenever you clear a new difficulty - Acolyte for red, Warrior for green camo, Mentor for jaguar print, and Master Ninja for gold.

They all look like absolutely atrocious, but that's just me. I prefer the DLC outfits, namely the Biometal set.

And the Lunar's 360Y? Again, you already know how to do it, *as you just said how to do it*. Unless you mean that you have to rotate the analog stick 360 degrees then press Y.

Is it me or does the game get easier once you get the Scythe? I love it!

@SageRuffin - Thats what you gotta love about Ninja Gaiden games. No matter how bad you think you did, you still look amazing.
