− | + | Axes are only available with the Royalty DLC active. Crafting an axe requires [[Research#Smithing|Smithing]] to be researched and a crafting skill of 3. It requires 50 of any one type of [[metal]] or [[wood]]. | |

− | The axe | + | The axe appears to be inferior to its direct competitor, the [[gladius]], in every way. Both weapons require the same amount of materials, have the same crafting skill and research requirements, and have the same cooldown (the one combat advantage the gladius has over the [[longsword]]). |

− | {{ | + | However, the gladius does more damage per strike, has a better [[DPS]], has higher AP, and weighs less. The only advantage Axes have is that their work to make is slightly less - only {{Ticks/minutes|{{Q|Axe|Work To Make}}}} vs {{Ticks/minutes|{{Q|Gladius|Work To Make}}}} for the Gladius, which in turn slightly reduces the Axe's [[market value]], however neither difference is likely to ever be important when crafting. |
− | + | An axe of higher [[quality]] will have a better DPS and may have better AP than a gladius of the same material, and a [[plasteel]] Axe will outperform a [[steel]] gladius in DPS and be only slighly worse in AP. Thus, it can be worth keeping axes of good materials and/or high qualities, but they should never be crafted for combat use unless a specific aesthetic is preferred over effectiveness. | |
− | |||
− | [[ | ||
− | + | Generally, an axe is superior in DPS to a longsword of 2 quality levels below itself but inferior to one of only 1 quality level below, for example a Legendary Steel Axe has higher DPS than an Excellent Steel Longsword, but lower DPS to a Masterwork Steel Longsword. The axe has AP superior to longswords of 3 quality levels below itself. Thus, besides in attack cooldown (a property shared by the gladius, which is superior to the axe), all but the very best quality and material axes are inferior to almost all longswords, and all axes are inferior to longswords of good material and quality. | |
