Deathscythe (Final Fantasy XII)

The Deathscythe is a Rank VI Mark from Final Fantasy XII. It can be found in the Cloister of the Highborn area of the Necrohol of Nabudis. Enter from the hall of the Ivory Covenant with two Characters in critical. You must have two party members in very critical status or he will not appear. Due to this it is too difficult to easily farm Deathscythe.

After each Nalbina hunt Jovy shows up and hears that you killed the Mark before running off. After killing Deathscythe go to the West ward and talk to Jovy. He gives you an Elixir and a Knot of Rust, after which the player witnesses a new scene. Here Vaan learns that Reks was Jovy's original hero, but now Vaan is his new hero.
