A little something to help anyone wondering how to get the Scythe Economy as early (kinda) as possible. This is obviously MUCH easier once you get the Darkness Wisps and your Darkness gauge to 5.

Before you start tackling on this you should gear up and the cost for the bare minimum is 16 Red Skulls and 14400 Gold Total. You can ignore the Willful Skull which then will allow you to do this challenge as soon as you finish Plains - given you get all 10 Red Skulls there - and collect the 3 Red Skulls in the Tower of Fate.

Equipment needed and why:
Raiment of Risk - Slow Darkness regeneration at cost of having Will (Health) reduced to its default minimum.

Throwing Sickle - Basic attack, low Darkness consumption and available as soon as you finish Plains. The upgraded version is needed to open the books in Pridemoor.

Dread Talon - Also available after completing Plains. To break blocks and deal with some annoying knight enemies.

Willful Skull - Third Curio available after finishing Plains. Healing; not really mandatory, but helps lessen the danger of losing everything in the boss fight.
