Axe

Warrior right hand Weapon (Item) that requires Axe Mastery and does Slashing damage.

Axes can have up to three different modifiers in addition to the damage they automatically deal. Each one of these modifiers is drawn from a different pool of modifiers, which are "prefixes", "suffixes" and "additional". If you are attempting to obtain upgrade components for your axe to get the specific mods you want, all "prefix" modifiers will appear exclusively on axe hafts and all "suffix" modifiers will appear exclusively on axe grips; there is no way to add a modifier from the "additional" pool to your axe, it must spawn with one of those modifiers when it drops to have one.
