Although, i don't like the idea of reaping souls with scythes, as they are rather simple, i think to balance it out you should only be able to reap souls with the living metal scythe, and you get souls to use the living metal scythe through soulsand or something, Scyt hes should instead yeild 2X items from farming.
I dunno xD
But it just bothers me, thats all, good luck with the mod!
Stop treating mod devs poorly. These people mod as a hobby or as a service to the community, they don't have to take your suggestion and you are not entitled to anything from them.
As for farming with plants... I have an idea for this one. The major deal with this mod is based on a new Farming system. Minecraft allows you to farm the land with a Hoe. Harken Scythe allows you to farm the living with a scythe. Each is a tool and both should be as useful as the next.
I have added a bonus to harvesting Reeds and wheat with a scythe:
Reeds yields + 1 harvested based on Height.
Example:
1 reed block = +0 Bonus Harvest.
2 reed blocks = +1 Bonus Harvest.
3 reed blocks = +2 Bonus Harvest.
Wheat yields x 2 harvested on full grown plants.
Scythes take 2 durability damage * 3 durability damage per Bonus Harvest.
Harvesting a full grown Reed (3 blocks), would cause 6 durability damage to the Scythe.
Harvesting a full grown Wheat (1 block). would cause 2 durability damage to the Scythe.
Nice idea Mr_Boness)
Soon a Harvest Moon Event will be added. During a full moon reaps yield x2 souls -OR- New rare souls (red in color) will drop during this event. These rare soul will be for crafting even better items. (and soon taste even more delicious then normal souls).
Also under developement is the Soulsteal Enchant. This will allow you to reap souls with other weapons. Placing a weapon in the Soul Altar + 50 souls yeilds the Enchant. Soulsteal can't be stacked with other Enchants. (this one is still loosely based, making sure its not Overpowered).
Soulsand has 2 uses with the next upcoming update.
1. Can be made into Spectral Glass. Its unique ability is secret atm , But I promise you its quite useful!
2. Soulsand can be directly added to Soul Crucibles. Every 5 = 5 souls. (just like Souls from reaps).
Added note: You can craft Soulsand from Sand using the Soul Altar. Cost 10 souls. (The cost is to promote Nether travel, however its possible to acquire Soulsand w/o leaving Overworld.
Hope that is a good teaser Mr_Boness
Sorry you feel that way however please read the OP of its features. You will quickly see the two mods are very much different. Also If you read through Asgard Shield thread, you will see Harken Scythe has been in development for a long time now. plus I have even promoted Kirwis Death scythe on this thread
The two mods only share scythe recipes (layout, not materials), other then that....... nothing.
Lastly sadly with the next upcoming patch, I don't believe the two mods will not be well compatible, This will be due to Soulsand furnace recipe. Which btw creates Spectral Glass in this mod. I may make this a optional feature (config) for an alternate way to craft Spectral Glass. Mod incompatibility is something I don't enjoy. (if it takes an extra step in coding, I'll do )

The summoning Altar will sorta be like the ender frame block, you place "Idea 1" / "Idea 2" into the open slot. Once the Summoning Altar is Primed you "Summon" with the Necronomicon in hand to spawn a friendly mob. Friendly mobs will be zombies, skele, pigs, chickens, ect that will act much like wolves. Protecting the caster while it lives.
Idea 1: Place a Completely full Soulkeeper into the Summon Altar to power it, after the summon is finished Right click to retrieve empty Soulkeeper.
Idea 2: Place a rare soul (gained from Harvest Moon Events, Bosses, and PvP) into the Summon Altar to prime it. After the summon is finished the soul is consumed and a full Soulkeeper is drained in players inventory.
Over all, this should allow more abilities with the Necronomicon, allow players to build armies, and over all add more complexity to the Harken Scythe.
Thanks for the Mod Review SirLagAlot!, will be posted shortly after my nap. Had a brainstorming session today, feeling tired...
New Scythe Feature: Harvesting Reed and Crops with a scythe rewards player with more produce!!
Example:
1 reed block = +0 Bonus Harvest.
2 reed blocks = +1 Bonus Harvest.
3 reed blocks = +2 Bonus Harvest.
Wheat yields x 2 harvested on full grown plants.
Scythes take 2 durability damage * adjusted durability damage based on Bonus Harvest.
Harvesting a full grown Reed (3 blocks), would cause 6 durability damage to the Scythe.
Harvesting a full grown Wheat (1 block). would cause 2 durability damage to the Scythe.
New Blocks: Spectral Glass and Spectral Glass Pane:
New Soul Altar Recipe: Sand --> Soulsand
The Soul cost is to Promote Nether travel, however getting Soulsand is possible now in Overworld
New Furnace Recipe: Soulsand -> Spectral Glass
New Crafting Recipe: Spectral Glass -> Spectral Plane
New way to obtain Souls: Soulsandx5 + Soul Crucible = 5 souls.
Soulsand can be placed directly into the Crucible to reward 5 Captured Souls per 5 Soulsand.
Added new Raw soul mechanic:
Souls are edible: Placing a random potion effect (good and bad) on the player. Take care tho, eating souls only leads hungering for more souls!.
Adjust Soulfood Cake:
Soulfood cake now tastes more delicious!!! Restores 3 hunger, up from 1/12.
detection range increase health and damage increase and maybe some other things to make the harvest moon event not only more helpful but also more deadly
Aye that is the plan, along with other rare things
Sorry no chance of a 1.2.5 version. Many of the features are solely available due to Forge's new 1.3.1/1.3.2 layout.
That would be most welcomed Hoping to get some more meaty Content in soon enough, time to hit the books on Mob Entity Creation. Also to find ways of making mobs stronger for the Harvest Moon Event. (Need to think of a catchy Name for this Event).
Really interesting and cool idea. Can't wait to future content to be added!
1.4.2 Update!!! Harken Scythe is fully updated to Minecraft 1.4.2. Please download the newest version of Forge to play.
Ethereal Amulet crafting recipe has been adjusted with the new update. Crafted with Nether Stars rather then Ghast Tears.
News:
While this update was just a upgrade for 1.4.2, the next update will be one full of goodies Such as...
-More Soul types
-Longer Soul feasting buff durations
-Summoning Altar
-Sol Cookies
-Spectral Glass and panes have better Redstone functions
and Hoping to have the Harvest Moon Event up and ready
