Hello fellow warriors,

Just throwing a few ideas about 2 handed axe (we need and deserve it!)

THE 2 HANDED AXE
>>> Untraited skills
1. aoe cone (no chain) spamable – 60 degrees – range 600
2. axe jump attack – range 600 – CD 5 sec – inflict cripple
3. cyclone axe – 360 degrees attack – range 300 – CD 10 sec
4. defensive manoeuver – 50% redux direct damage for 2 sec + stab – CD 15 sec /APPLY TO WHOLE TEAM
5. inline attack – range 1200 – CD 20 sec – 100% perforation / pass-through

>>> Traited skills
1. inflict poison on critical – 90 degrees
2. -
3. inflict poison on regular hits
4. 50% redux direct damage AND alteration for 3 sec
5. -

BURST ATTACK
regular : butcherin’ rage
- 360 degrees – range 600 – medium direct damage + chill + poison
TRAITED = clean poison, cripple and snare

berserker : butcherin’ frenzy (shorter CD since it’s zerk philosophy)
- 360 degrees – range 400 – chill and bleedin’ damage
TRAITED = give team regen and poison clean

I’d personnally like to see this kind of weapon, for the style AND a mixed gameplay (mid range and mixed damage, a bit of direct damage and a bit of alteration).
Also it could fit with a frostknight warrior elite (poison, frost and support).

thx for reading.
Plz forgive spelling, grammar etc, since i’m not a native english.

PS: if anyone askin’ why there are additionnal effects on traited burst skill ?
CAUSE burst skill is our signature skill, bro !

EDIT : skill names and damage, attk speed and damare range, just cause it’s fun … (and useless)
>>> Damage ranges
1. medium damage (zone category)
2. medium damage (single category)
3. medium damage (zone category)
4. no damage (mayve add reflect dmg on it)
5. high damage (single category)

>>> skills names
1. (toxic) slicing echo
2. flying axe
3. cyclonic strike
4. eye of the storm
5. sonic throw

character quote (about his beloved 2H axe):
… if i had a 2H axe …. i’ll slice’ya !

While it’d be nice to have new weapons added to the game, I’m skeptical we’d see them even with an expansion. Balance with what we have is already a hot-topic among most of the player base it seems.

I’d be happy with 2-h axe skins that overlay the hammer.

Sadly, i must admit you’re true.
And personnally, i ’d be happy too with a 2H axe skin overlying hammer OR greatsword

sure, anything is better than what we have currently….i tried aa in pve for the helk of it and everything was dying so slow i opted back for same old gs. it was also kinda boring usin the current aa….gs was more interesting after a while and i use gs 23/7.

The question is more about ‘when?’ rather than ‘if?’. They might go the more flash even if just as hard to balance approach and simply add a new class again.

Although, I would love to see battleaxes (melee cleave weapon), flails or halberts / spears (medium ranged melee weapons). Certainly think they should be added before we go all crazy with gaunlets, katanas, whips or throwing stars.

Oh yeah, flails (both 1H and 2H) and halberds …
Till now, Anet has been ultra lazy about weapon addition (new ones, not existing ones redesigned for another class), as much as they were about new dungeons (classic ones, not raid).

About balance : considering the joke it is actually (both pve en pvp), i dont think it’s a very solid argument.
