Weighted Axe  

 

=] Since I don't see this as zerker usable on here, It is INDEED zerker usable now.

This weapon is one of the best in the game sounds kinda stupid lol but its true this weapon for a 65 melee has a dmg bonus of 132 so 132+45=177 DMG and then with a good haste item and chanter haste you be hitting fast enough speed and youll be hitting for around 1k DMG dont believe me get a lvl 65 Melee to try this out on you lol

this weapon is crazyly underestimated, me as a 65 warrior with only around 270 unbuffed str and no offensive aa's hits for a good 500 with this, anywhere from 300-750 usualy with caped str and high attack, just went to crystal caverns and pulled EVERY single mob in the zone to the back of the spider caverns, probly 50 orc 20 stalag 20 geo 50 spiders, poped this on, turned on furious disc ( 12 second reposte everything ) and boom 140 dead mobs, insta perfect faction with the dwarves, silk for a friends shawl and ore for smithin : ), i use it in bot alot as well, once the reposte disc is up, even without using discs its quite good with self caped 91% haste, brings it to like 7 seconds a swing, but could you immagine maxing all your offensive aa's, up to 5 swings per round , dubble reposte, crit an insane ammount as well.... if it all goes right you could wind up with 3k worth of hits every 7 seconds, ultimate kiting weapon. incredible in duels as well, when you jouste it makes it hit for hit, who ever has the biggest weapon wins, with this thing, nuff said. also vs those pesky monks and rangers and any class with very fast attack, have ur normal weapons on, once hes good and meelin you swingin like crazy, pop this on and turn on the reposte disc, person dies within a second or 2, unless they are smart and stop attacking while your disc is on, most dont even notice until they are dead, as for letting them get you berzerk then turning on crit disc, wouldnt recomend it, reposte works so much better, did i mention in cc, all 140 mobs died in around 3 seconds lol, entire screen filled up with 500's.

well there is some ideas for you : ),no i wouldnt recomend this as a main weapon but for doing special stuff like that, its godly, 177 base weapon damage at level 65 basicaly. or even use fellstrike if on a pvp server vs a sitting caster, 4 times 177 dmg is i dont know some where around 700, thats 5 hits for 700 damage, dont know meny casters that can survive 3500 damage( not counting crits and crips, which happen like crazy if you max your crit aa's ), and thats just to get them up lol, still have enuff time to do it 2 more times before disc runs out. ( i have never tryed fell strike with this so i dont know if it would factor in the damage bonus, might just make it 4 times 45, think ill test it tonite.

Is it a magic weapon! Cos when i attack a will-o-wisp it could not hit it so i dont think its a magic weapon.

I gave one of these to my lvl 24 necro pet....

and it swallowed it!!!!!


No weapon in its hands, no nothing, just sacked it :(


Bad pet, baaaaad pet (/slap pet)

BTW, anyone know what drops this and where it is located? Any info would be appreciated, Thank ya

Err make that 2hs :)

If you have jboots or sow potions the weighted axe is one of the cheapest weapons you can use for warrior kiting in PvE. Bop the mob a good one, run away, wait til weapon repops, rinse, repeat.

Same as most I use this as an opening attack weapon and I critted for 250 with on opening swing (I was happy my highest crit at the time) that was at 42. Some guy in my group called me a noob for using it kinda pissed me of a little coz not everyoone who plays the game is an uber twink and I think its a fine opener for the price and availabilty. Oh yeah at 44 the damage bonus for me war was 48, which is nice.

I'm a 38 troll SK and I do the "ghetto slash" routine with the weighted axe for my first swing and a runed frost blade for my normal attacks. I average between 200 and 300 points from a successful double attack with this sucker with occassional double attacks in the low 400s.

The really nice thing about this weapon is the riposts - I've had a few times when fighting giants and ulthorks that the mob has gotten off first swing on me but my troll has riposted, resulting in a 150 point ripost and another 300+ points from my double attack - nothing impresses folks more than seeing a mob's hitpoint bar suddenly drop after you've only swung once at it. :)

After reading this thread, I was in Frontier Mountains with a group when one of these dropped. I quickly grabbed it and gave it to my partner, an Ogre Warrior. He'd put it on, and when the other tank pulled, he'd lumber up and joust it hard. At LVL30, his skill is only about 10 in 2hs, but he was Double Attacking 135x2 (270 DAM!) on his opening attacks. As soon as he swung, he'd switch back to his Centi WH and SSoY, and go about the thrashing. Between this joust and my opening BS, we'd have mountain giants down about 20-25% health in the first second of battle.

I was try to sell some junk in NFP when a guy was selling this for 5pp!I couldn't resist and bought it from him.It's a good Opening attack weapon and I use it almost every time.

this might be good for pvp if your jousting... just run around and then when it your melee button pops up turn around and whack him. At 28 this had a damage bonus of 40! now if my centi warspear hits for 40-50 with the occasional 60 (we will say 50 for an average) then this could do 140+dmg on one swing at lvl 28!!! Then if you double you could take LARGE amount of HP off of them! A lvl 30 who pulls off a double with this could do like a max of 300 damage! most casters at 30 would have like 600hp or less hp... thats like <BOOM> <HT> u ded! I think this wep is way under estimated becuase of the 150dly, but now its a doomsday wep! Hehe i got one for 10pp and then traded it for a crafted bracer.. if i was a large race i could see using this a lot. lol this would not be good for PVE though unless you used that hit with it then switch stratagy.
