Axe

Axe is one of the skills in The Age of Decadence.

The art of axe-wielding has remained virtually unchanged since the dawn of time, combining strength, momentum and a weighted wedge of metal to cleave flesh, bone and even shields.

Skill Level

1. Give it a swing. How hard can it be?
2. Your uncoordinated swipes throw you wildly off balance.
3. You're discovered that swinging your axe wildly will only get you so far.
4. If only they would stand still, eh?
5. Countless hours spent felling trees and men have helped to develop a fluid swing.
6. Your straightforward attacks are savage, but leave you wide open for a gutting.
7. Short, vicious chops cleave skulls and keep professional killers on their heels.
8. You welcome heavily armored prey. Few are quick enough to dodge, and the dead weight they carry offers scant protection from your axe blade.
9. The carnage you create with an axe is appalling. Blood spurts when shocked foes strike out at you with limbs they no longer possess.
10. You've mastered the art of axe fighting.
