Talk:Axe

I think the infomation on the weapon upgrades herein is great, but should probably be moved to that article instead of here. If there is no dispute, I'll do this myself.--Jackel 07:55, 30 Jul 2005 (EST)

Does anybody know any other axe types that cause piercing damage. I'm only certain for the Battle Pick and Piercing Axe and listed all the others under slashing damage. I may have missed some. Please review and correct. --Tetris L 18:51, 1 Sep 2005 (EST)

I've never seen the following axes in the game: Kyhlo Axe, Rat Cleaver, Rusted Battle Axe, Rusted Hatchet, Rusted Sickle and I'm also not sure about the Krytan Axe and Axe of Orr. Are those names from this Strategy Guide again? Even with it being "official" and all, I more and more get the impression that it is full of errors and shouldn't be used as a source of information without confirmation.--Eightyfour-onesevenfive 19:11, 1 Sep 2005 (EST)


 * No, they are not from the Prima Guide. I ignore the list in the Prima Guide this time. These names come from other sources on the web, and most of them are verified with screenshots. The only ones I'm sceptical about are the "rusted" ones. (I got those from the salvage item guide on GWonline.net.) But I've never seen those myself. --Tetris L 19:20, 1 Sep 2005 (EST)
 * P.S.: The "Axe of Orr" is unconfirmed too. It's from the same list on GWonline.net. --Tetris L 19:30, 1 Sep 2005 (EST)


 * There were items in the beta that got removed. Perhaps the screenshots are from them?  --Fyren 21:39, 1 Sep 2005 (EST)


 * This is where I found them:
 * Krytan Axe: brand new thread, not from the beta
 * Kyhlo Axe: Looks like this used to be the name of the axe from collector Ouran Odwin, but it is now called "Ascalon Axe".
 * Rat Cleaver is listed on one of the pages listed under "External Links" as well as the GWonline.net salvage, but both pages are from beta days, so they may be outdated.

 * I have a vague rememberance of a Kyhlo Axe from the crafter in Pre-searing ascalon. Can someone check for me as I no longer have a pre-sear char.--William Blackstaff 00:23, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
 * William try this: Crafter (Weapon Crafter) --Rainith 00:34, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

Isn't there an axe "Fiery Flame SPitter" or so? I don't know where to get it, but I'm sure.
 * Yes, that is a collector weapon. --Tetris L 16:15, 7 Oct 2005 (EST)

slash vs pierce DOES make a difference
While I'm not sure who takes extra damage from piercing, I'm not going to take any piercing warrior with me to defend North Kryta Province. Well, there are exceptions, because damage doesn't always matter. But in those cases I wouldn't care if they brought a 3-5 damage axe either. -PanSola 07:07, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

Slashing damage has got an armor penetration, based on strength (10 strength = 10 armor penetration). Piercing damage also has got a low armor penetration, but I don't know how much exactly.


 * To both of you: what? --Fyren 12:06, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

Different skins of the Battle Axe
Does anyone know, which skins the Battle Axeh as got? I only know: Battlepick, Spiked Axe and Cleaver. Are there more skins of the Battle Axe?
