A Battleaxe is a one-handed melee Weapon for the Cryoknight faction. They have an attack speed of 2.25 seconds and deal Necromae damage. All enemies capable of dropping combat equipment have a chance to drop Battleaxes, provided that the player has progressed through the main story to the point where they have chosen a Faction, as before this point only non-faction equipment can be received.

Players who have chosen the Cryoknight faction are able to receive Battleaxes in Common, Uncommon, Rare, or Epic Rarity. Players who chose the Hammermage or Guardian factions will receive Battleaxes much less frequently, and only in Rare rarity, as these items are intended for other factions to use with the Infusion system to make Epic rarity weapons for their own faction.

Battleaxes are also able to be crafted by the Blacksmith profession, at an item level up to the Blacksmith level of the crafter. Different level ranges of Battleaxe require different variants of the materials, but they all require 5 Adathril Ingots and 1 Yew Pole.

Variants

The visual appearance of a Battleaxe is dependent only on its level. Battleaxes crafted by the Blacksmith profession use different variants of the materials for each different visual appearance of the Battleaxe.

Combat Stats

All Battleaxes attack at a speed of 2.25 seconds. They all deal Impact damage, with a chance to convert the damage to Necromae. The weapon strength and elemental chance of a Battleaxe obey formulae with slight variation:

Strength=L+15×R+3+[06]
Chance=[3049]%

Where

  • L is the Item Level
  • R is the Rarity, expressed as number of stars

There is random variation in the stats for a Battleaxe, determined by the terms [06] for the strength and [3049] for the elemental chance. Generally, a weapon with a lower roll on the chance will have a higher roll for the strength. It is believed that rarity affects the distribution of strength rolls, as Common items almost always roll 0-2, and higher values have only rarely been recorded.

From this formula it can be seen that each increase in Rarity of a Battleaxe is equivalent to 15 additional levels. Thus a Battleaxe at level 0 Epic, at level 15 Rare, at level 30 Uncommon, or at level 45 Common will all have the same minimum combat strength of 63.

The strongest possible Battleaxe is a level 500 Epic Battleaxe with a maximum strength roll, which has the following stats:
