So I recently started a Noel character, still an Alter at the moment, but one thing that is really bugging me is that 'using weapon' in the description for melee skills, says Scythe, and the Noel weapon is definitely NOT a scythe, as a scythe is a pole weapon with a large curved 'blade' that sits at a right angle from the shaft. Is there any particular reason why these weapons are classed as scythes but called sticks? clearly the Noel weapon is a battle staff or Quarterstaff, heck you could call it a combat staff and it would still make more sense than classing it as a scythe.
(or Quarterstaff)
