Axes

Axes are heavy, chopping weapons used for devastating close combat. They typically deal high damage and have slower attack speed compared to lighter weapons such as swords or daggers with some exceptions.

Hitbox


Height: 65.48
Width: 14.65
Depth: 2.82

Weapon's hitbox doesn't necessarily determine a weapon's reach due to different attack animations. Thus, shorter weapons can have better reach than longer weapons.
Impact Zones of Battle Axe:

Disclaimer: The impact zone's locations are an approximation. The real hitboxes may be slightly larger, closer together, and/or follow the weapon's shape more closely. Image is not able to be updated automatically. If it is outdated, please report it to the Wiki Discord.
