One of the weapons that was introduced in the Isleweaver Update is Thalys, an Incarnon Heavy Scythe that excels at slashing your enemies to bits and pieces.
This Incarnon Melee Weapon can be built to destroy your enemies, especially with the bonus effects provided when it is in its Incarnon Form.
Depending on what type of build you prefer to use, you can rest assured that a lot of damage can be dealt with this Heavy Scythe, and there are different ways to mod it.
Thalys Builds
1) Thalys Critical Damage Build (Critical Chance Build)
Thalys has a high base Critical Chance, making it easy to modify this Incarnon Melee Weapon to unleash devastating Critical Hits to your unlucky enemies.
Utilizing Blood Rush along with Organ Shatter and True Steel, this weapon will be able to build up a Combo Count that allows you to get Red Crits within seconds.
Virulent Scourge and Voltaic Strike can be replaced with other Elemental Damage and Status Mods, or you may even use Elemental Damage Mods (90% Elemental Damage) instead.
Overall, this will provide Thalys with a good, faster attack rate, which will allow you to continuously sever your targets with high damage provided by the Critical Hits, which are deadlier in Incarnon Form.
2) Thalys Status Build (Status Chance Build)
This build boosts the Status Chance of Thalys to 81.6% but that changes as your Combo Count rises because of Weeping Wounds, which makes it easy to inflict Status Effects.
The 4 Elemental Damage and Status Mods have been equipped for a higher base damage, more elements, and a higher Status Chance when attacking your enemies.
Added to this build is Condition Overload, which will increase the amount of damage that you deal to enemies based on how many Status Effects they are inflicted with.
Combined with a Primer, this build can cause a lot of Mayhem, and if your targets don’t die from the Status Damage, you can be sure to finish them off with your melee hits.
3) Thalys Hybrid Build (Critical and Status Chance Build)
Providing you with the best of both worlds, this build offers a decent amount of Critical Chance and Status Chance that can be utilized to create multiple sources of damage.
Inflicting enemies with Status Effects will make them take damage over time or provide other negative effects to put them at a disadvantage, while you also deal Critical Hits to them.
Condition Overload has been added to the build, which will allow you to boost your damage even further, and this will also affect the overall damage you can do with Critical Hits.
On its own, this build can be used to take down even the strongest of enemies, and with a Primer, Thalys will cut through them like a hot knife going through butter.
4) Thalys Whirlwind Build (Maiming Strike Build)
One of the more popular ways to utilize melee weapons is to resort to the “Spin to Win” technique, which involves increasing your Combo Count to utilize Blood Rush and to use Spin Attacks.
Combining Blood Rush with Maiming Strike will give you guaranteed Critical Hits once your Combo Count has reached higher multipliers.
This works well when it comes to defeating enemies of different levels, and if you want to use a Primer to weaken your enemies, you can add Condition Overload to this build.
Replacing Spoiled Strike with Condition Overload will allow you to make use of the Primer you have, which can be any weapon that can apply lots of stacks of Status Effects.

Verdict
Depending on what weapons you have equipped aside from Thalys, you can utilize those with a high Status Chance to Prime your targets, applying Status Effects to weaken them.
Condition Overload is one of the key Mods that you will want to have, as this makes enemies with Status Effects take more damage from your attacks.
Thalys can transform into its Incarnon Form easily by doing a Heavy Attack after you have reached a 6x Combo Count, making the weapon even deadlier while in this form.
