Axes

Learn about Axes in ArcheAge Chronicles! We cover their damage type, attack speed, unique trigger effects, and how they compare to other one-handed weapons.

Hey there! So you're looking into Axes in ArcheAge Chronicles, huh? Let's break down what makes them tick. Axes fall under the One-handed weapons category. They deal Crushing damage, which is great against certain types of enemies. Their Attack Speed is a bit on the slower side at 1.7, and they have a Damage Scattering of > 15%. This means their damage can swing a bit, sometimes hitting harder than average, sometimes less. Now, here's where Axes get interesting: their Trigger Effect. They have a chance to regen health equal to 2% damage dealt for 3 seconds. This is pretty sweet for survivability, especially during longer fights. Just keep in mind that this effect has a 45sec cd (cooldown). Compared to other one-handed weapons, Axes are a bit slower than Daggers (1.4) or Katanas (1.5), but they offer that nice health regen on trigger. Swords are also faster (1.6), but their parry effect is different. Clubs and Scepters are slower (1.8) and have different effects, with Clubs having a chance to regenerate mana and Scepters reducing cast time. Shortspears are the slowest (2.0) among the one-handed weapons and can give healing power if it's an obsidian version. So, if you're looking for a weapon that helps you sustain yourself in combat with a bit of passive healing, an Axe could be a solid choice. Just be aware of its slightly higher attack speed and the cooldown on its health regen. Here's a quick look at how Axes stack up in the table: | One-handed Weapon | Damage Type | Attack Speed | Damage Scattering [1] | Trigger Effect | Extras/Info | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Axes](https://archeage.fandom.com/wiki/One-handed_Axes "One-handed Axes") | Crushing | 1.7 | > 15% | Chance to regen health equal to 2% damage dealt for 3 seconds | 45sec cd. | Remember, the best weapon for you often depends on your playstyle and the specific situation, but hopefully, this gives you a clearer picture of what Axes bring to the table!
