Surviving 99 nights in the forest while dodging a terrifying two-legged deer isn’t easy, but the right weapon makes all the difference. The Vampire Scythe stands as one of the most devastating melee weapons in Roblox’s 99 Nights in the Forest—and this guide shows you exactly how to claim it.
Roblox Vampire Scythe Stats Breakdown
| Attribute | Details |
|---|---|
| Weapon Type | Two-handed melee |
| Base Damage | 56 HP per hit |
| Max Damage | 80 HP (with Brawler ability) |
| Swing Rate | 1 second |
| Location | Center of Hedge Maze (Vampire Chest) |
| Requirements | 3 Circus Tickets |
Why the Vampire Scythe Dominates
This wickedly curved blade mounted on a crude wooden handle delivers DPS comparable to the legendary Morningstar—but swings significantly faster. With its one-second swing rate and base damage of 56 HP, the Vampire Scythe becomes even more lethal when paired with the Brawler class enchantment, ramping damage up to a devastating 80 HP per strike.
For players pushing through the later nights, this weapon is essential for fending off increasingly aggressive threats while protecting your camp.
Step-by-Step: How to Unlock the Vampire Scythe
Step 1: Upgrade Your Camp First
Before hunting for tickets, prioritize building structures that extend your daytime. Longer daylight means more time to explore safely and complete challenges without the two-legged deer hunting you.
Step 2: Locate the Circus
The Circus spawns near the map boundaries. Scout the perimeter until you find it, then check if it’s open. If closed, note the grand opening time displayed—you’ll need to return when it’s active.
Step 3: Earn Three Circus Tickets
Complete three minigames to collect your tickets:
- Basketball Dunk: Score three successful dunks
- Hoop Throw: Land three hoops on target
- Air Pistol Game: Hit three targets accurately
Each successful completion awards one ticket. Master these mini-games quickly to minimize exposure time.
Step 4: Navigate the Hedge Maze
With all three tickets, head to the Hedge Maze entrance. Follow the red arrows throughout the maze—they mark the fastest route to the center. Watch for wild animals patrolling the paths; avoid combat when possible to conserve health.
Step 5: Claim Your Prize
At the maze’s center sits the Vampire Chest. Open it to receive your hard-earned Vampire Scythe and dramatically increase your survival odds.
Pro Tips for Success
- Timing Matters: Attempt the Circus games during extended daytime when you’ve upgraded your camp sufficiently
- Bring Friends: Playing with teammates makes navigating the maze safer
- Stock Healing Items: Carry bandages or food before entering the Hedge Maze
- Practice Minigames: Familiarize yourself with each Circus game to reduce completion time
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I get the Vampire Scythe without completing all three minigames?
Q: Does the Vampire Scythe durability decrease over time?
The game doesn’t feature weapon durability mechanics, so once you obtain the Vampire Scythe, it remains permanently in your inventory with its full damage potential intact across all 99 nights.
