Stone Two-Handed Axe

Stone Two-Handed Axe is the Stone-tier long axe in Everwind, a two-handed cleaving weapon with a broad stone axe head mounted on a long hardwood haft. Crafted at the Crafting Station using stone materials, it improves on the Wooden Long Axe with better damage and durability while preserving the wide cleave arc that defines the long axe category. It is a straightforward upgrade for players who have established the two-handed axe as their preferred combat style.

Stone Two-Handed Axe requires no skill unlock, placing it in the open-access Stone-tier equipment tier. One rune slot allows customization; Rune of Strength enhances the already-notable damage of the cleaving arc to maximize multi-target value. Upgrading to +10 at the Upgrade Station is reasonable for players who want to stay in the Stone tier before acquiring the Advanced Weapons skill and Copper-tier materials.

Stone Two-Handed Axe excels in any encounter involving grouped enemies, where its cleave arc can hit two or more targets per swing for effectively multiplied damage output. It competes with Stone Long Blade and Stone Pounder at the same tier, offering the unique advantage of area coverage. An unusual Stone-tier variant, the Sparkshaft Axe, offers a unique appearance for players seeking a more distinctive version of this weapon type before the ScrapSteamer Metal Great Axe and Bronze Cleaver become available.
