## Statistical Progression Summary
| Stage | Damage | Range | Attack Speed | Soul Harvest Effects |
|-------|--------|-------|--------------|---------------------|
| **Void Base** | 110 | 6m arc | 1.8s | Basic soul harvesting + void storage |
| **+ Pyrion** | 210 | 6m + 4m fire | 1.5s | + Divine fire soul burning |
| **+ Thalassos** | 300 | 8m + dimensional | 1.2s | + Pressure crushing + reality severing |
| **+ Vaporis** | 375 | 10m omni-radius | 0.8s | + Steam processing + mechanical precision |
## Power Level Progression
**Tier 1 (Void)**: Death Domain Weapon - Soul harvesting and void access
**Tier 2 (+ Pyrion)**: Divine Death Reaper - Eternal burning soul collection
**Tier 3 (+ Thalassos)**: Reality-Severing Harvester - Multi-dimensional soul reaping
**Tier 4 (+ Vaporis)**: Cosmic Soul Processor - Omni-reality harvesting with mechanical optimization

## Divine Equipment Limitation System
### Partial Legendary Access for Divine Entities
**Gods/Demigods Equipment Rules:**
- **Base Weapon**: Always receive the foundational weapon from one world
- **+2 Augments**: Get exactly 2 additional world enhancements (randomized)
- **Time Lords Only**: Full 4-world legendary weapons reserved for cosmic supreme entities
- **Power Balance**: Ensures even divine entities cannot match Time Lord ultimate equipment
**Example Divine Equipment Variants:**
**Death Incarnate's Scythe** (Base + Pyrion + Thalassos):
- Shadow void harvesting + Divine fire burning + Reality-crushing pressure
- Missing: Steam processing and mechanical consciousness
- Power Level: Reality-Severing but not Cosmic-level
**War Incarnate's Sword** (Base + Subterra + Vaporis):
- Divine fire foundation + Geological resonance + Steam-mechanical evolution
- Missing: Abyssal pressure and reality-cutting
- Power Level: Planetary-devastation but not Reality-transcending
**Randomization Examples:**
- Roll 1d4 for base world, then roll 2d3 for additional augments
- Ensures variety in divine equipment loadouts
- Maintains mystery about which powers divine entities will possess

## Crafting Requirements Summary
**Total Time Investment**: ~4 years across 4 worlds
**Master Craftsmen Required**: 4 (Void Council, God-Touched, Trench Lord, Master Engineer)
**Mortality Risk**: Extreme - void exposure, divine fire, crushing pressure, mechanical consciousness integration
**Material Cost**: Cosmic-level (crystallized void, divine essence, reality-anchor materials, consciousness cores)
**Wielder Requirements**: Must survive void exposure, divine fire, reality distortion, and mechanical consciousness integration
**Ultimate Capability**: A scythe that harvests souls across multiple reality states simultaneously, processes them through steam-powered void machinery, and stores unlimited spiritual essence for cosmic-level power generation.
**Divine Limitation Significance**: By limiting gods and demigods to partial legendary weapons, the Time Lords maintain absolute cosmic supremacy while still allowing divine entities impressive power levels.
*This scythe progression demonstrates the ultimate soul-harvesting weapon while establishing the equipment hierarchy that maintains cosmic balance.*
