Axe

Axes are one-handed weapons that have high damage and high delay. They are used primarily by Warriors and Beastmasters but also by Dark Knights, Rangers can equip axes like Fransisca and Kriegsbeil mainly for their considerable bonuses to ranged attack and ranged accuracy.

Axes are damage powerhouses intended to utilize damage-over-time to the fullest with strong weapon skills such as Rampage to back up their damage-over-time efficiency. A Warrior/Ninja or Beastmaster/Ninja after level 20 gets the advantage of wielding two of these powerful weapons while eliminating some of their delay, further increasing their damage-over-time potential.

It should be noted that because the most damaging axe weapon skills are multi-hit, accuracy should play an important role in an axe-wielder's weapon skill gear.
