The scythe of Curses will often drain monsters, in addition to inflicting Necromancy miscasts on them a la mummy death curses (slow, rot, summoned undead and demonic allies). Coupled with its excellent enchantment bonuses, these can devastate living opponents. Unfortunately, it will also curse random inventory items, and has a terrible weapon as its base type. Only consider it if you already have 26 skill in polearms, really don't care about your inventory being cursed constantly, and are facing opponents which will actually be affected by the Necromancy miscasts.
Ashenzari blocks the curses if you worship him, preventing them from affecting you.
