A lethal scythe, made from spider parts.

The Noxious scythe is a level 90 two-handed melee weapon that can be created at 90 Crafting by combining a spider leg with Araxxi's fang, both of which are obtained by fighting Araxxor and Araxxi.

It is currently the most powerful two-handed melee weapon outside of Daemonheim. It has the same attack range and mechanics as a halberd. This weapon lasts for 10 hours of combat before degrading into an unusable state. Repairing it from a fully degraded state will cost 4,500,000 at a repair NPC such as Bob in Lumbridge, or less at a player-owned house armour stand, depending on the player's Smithing level.

Creating a Noxious scythe yields a profit of 68,806,110.

During Dishonour among Thieves, the player apparition can wield a noxious scythe during the first phase.

Special Attack

A player performing the Mirrorback special attack with the Noxious Staff equipped

The Noxious scythe has a special attack named Mirrorback, which requires full adrenaline and will summon a mirrorback spider to aid the player. While active, the spider will reduce damage from attacks against the player by 50%, and reflect that damage to the attacker, but it will also be damaged for an equal amount. For instance, if the player is hit by an attack that deals 1000 damage, both the player and the spider take 500 damage, and the attacker receives 500 points of deflection damage. This will last for ten seconds or until the spider is killed. This special attack does not work against certain attacks, and also cannot deflect damage back to attackers that are immune to deflection damage.

Trivia

Even though the item has a broken inventory sprite, when dropped, it will still look the same as if it was not broken.
With the combat changes to two-handed melee weapons released alongside Raids, popularity for the scythe rose, increasing its price to the range of other noxious weaponry.
