Hu, your title is wrong. You say “Axe is garbage” – and fail to specify that this is no generalised statement but only your opinion regarding PvP. Not everyone plays that! Wether Axt is good in WvW nobody discusses. And you also forgot to mention that you only speak of Axt mainhand. At least I havn’t seen anything regarding second hand axt skills and damage here.
It would improve the quality of this forum if you and others take the time for proper titles.
