User blog comment:AxleVII/just a few tips for scythe users of the fanon/@comment-24828824-20160114133715

Really i dont see the point in writing this. you are new and you have many great ideas, i get that. but please dont take such a binary approach to this fanon and try to do everything here from day one. Just start out simple: Write some OCs, get some experience in writing RPs and fanfics after you get those OCs accepted. When you have enough knowledge on how proper OCs are written here you can go ahead and write guides to help. But really, just coming in and starting off like this is not going to work. We dont know you and don't have much reason to listen to your advice. What your guide has come down to now is just one tip: dont go for tanky builds, use mobility instead. and this is based on data from outside the Canon of RWBY. that is not a guide, that is one observation, and now i am sorely tempted to prove you wrong with a tank cahracter using a Scythe, because i know i would be able to pull it off.

Just stop trying to write guides for now, stick to OCs and get some experience. We have been around for a while now, we know what we are doing.
