Final Fantasy Brave Exvius[]

An axe used for ordinary tasks that was enhanced to serve as a weapon on the battlefield. In ancient times, the axe was a necessary tool for daily life activities, such as chopping wood. It is believed that its implementation as a weapon at the time stems from how instinctually users would draw this reliable tool when surrounded by beasts or enemies. However, being heavier than a sword, using it requires broad swings that unfortunately reduce accuracy.

An axe used for ordinary tasks that was enhanced to serve as a weapon on the battlefield. Since antiquity, the axe has been a necessary tool for daily activities such as chopping wood. Its use as a weapon is thought to have stemmed from how, when surrounded by bandits or beasts, combatants simply took up in arms the tool they were most accustomed to. However, being heavier than a sword, its broad swinging attacks are not all that accurate.
