Early Axes

Mighty weapons from long ago, from a time when the world was still young and incomplete...

Early Axes are a dual-wielded two-handed pair assembled at the Workbench from 4 Wood, one Curious Axe Head and one Mysterious Axe Head, with Leather Scraps needed only for the upgrades at 2 per level. They deal 30 slash and 35 chop, block for just 4 and have 175 durability, gaining 5 slash and 3 chop a level to reach 45 slash at quality 4. The primary is a four-step chain at 6 stamina a swing and the secondary hits for 1.5x damage at 12, both cheap enough to run on an early stamina pool. They cost 5% movement speed.

Each quality level adds 8 damage and 50 durability. Quality 2 costs the per-level amount, quality 3 twice that and quality 4 four times, so the last level is more than half of the total.
