Serpent Axe

Description
The Serpent Axe is an axe that has a distinctive looking head, resembling a boot. The blade is engraved with the image of a serpent(the same as the Guild symbol), hence its name.

Other axes with this appearance:
 * Cho Wei's Axe (Unique Item)

Location
Serpent Axes are a random drop. While they do not seem to drop in any specific area, they are one of the rarest items in the game. Serpent Axes usually drop at or near max damage.

A Battle Axe with the Serpent Axe skin is given as a quest reward after completing Little Thom's Big Cloak, a pre-searing quest. Damage 3-5 Serpent Axes (properly named) are also known to drop in pre-searing.

Lower level Serpent axes (white and blue) drop often on the Shing Jea Island.

Monsters
 * Factions Campaign
 * Shing Jea Island
 * Afflicted Warrior
 * Naga
 * Sickened Guard (Warrior)
 * Tahkayun Tsi (Boss)

Chests
 * Hidden Stash

Inscribable serpent axes have been seen, meaning they might drop somewhere in nightfall as well, but inscribable ones have dropped from the Hall of Heroes chest.

Dye
Yellow dye turns it a yellowish-green. Orange dye turns it orange-reddish.
