Ether Reaper

"With a blade forged from the same material as the Ether Sword, the ETHER SCYTHE delivers quick death to it's victims."

- In-Game Description

The Ether Reaper is a scythe weapon, and was added into the game in Update 10.

The description oddly calls it the Ether "Scythe". It likely states this because it may have been called the Ether "Scythe" instead of Ether Reaper before it was released.
