Best Elden Ring Greataxe? All 14 Greataxes Ranked! Weapon Tier List Patch 1.16

[@magganboi1350]

Rusted anchor is where elden ring weapons peaked in design and pure badassery🗣🔥🙏

[@BirdMoose]

The Death knight axe is by far my favorite DLC weapon. Good, unique skill, and stylish AF. The twin axes just didn't do it for me in the same way, idk why.

[@paracame8162]

because they miss 60% of the time and the powerstanced axe moveset is one of the worst in the game

[@pierce5852]

cause bigger axe = better axe duh

[@capsade]

​@@paracame8162fr it's so awkward too

[@DTGeorge]

Youwy is the goat

[@akathenugget]

You’re not wrong but in every video it seems like he has to make a garbage take on a weapon by saying it basically needs no fp for the aow or the weapon needs a buff that is beyond an overstatement lol

[@tigeruppercut3934]

He’s been putting in work. Great content.

[@JohnnyGoodBehavior]

Great. But says “of which” too often when it’s not grammatically appropriate.

[@maharreywilly]

​@@JohnnyGoodBehavior grammatically appropriate? maybe not. grammatically correct? absolutely. that's such a pet peeve lol

[@WeeziMonkey]

Something you didn't mention in your intro is that greataxes have much faster charged attacks than great hammers. A full charge attack build with Cragblade and the right physick is insane with the Executioner's Greataxe, you can stancebreak some bosses in 2 charged attacks.

[@Maud_Dib31]

My favourite weapon class ❤

[@abhinavs9692]

16:41 that dodge was so cool

[@icebreaker913]

Legit didn't even remember those gargoyle greataxes even existed

[@lharsay]

-S scaling strength weapon -worst in class for strength build It just shows how useless the scaling ranks are.

[@WinstonWolfe21]

They’re garbage

[@Capthowdy098]

Forgot they existed and didn't notice

[@lHAZ4RD]

Homie didn't do his research. Soul Stifler has been bugged for 2-3 patches now. debuffs in PvE for it's PvP values untill they fix it

[@WinstonWolfe21]

Interesting. Hopefully they fix it if true

[@lHAZ4RD]

@@WinstonWolfe21 is true. If you can math, you can test it yourself rn. It's part of my build and makes me very very very sad. Funny tho, even bugged, it's still better than every other debuff in the game 😂

[@sandystewart-jones7826]

It’s been bugged forever. All debuffs have never worked correctly in PvE.

[@sheemhzz]

Longhaft Axe is very slept on. I’ve used flaming strike w flame art affinity it has a great damage output when paired with good talismans. Also it’s a good stance breaking weapon. It even stun locks Malenia when you spam the light attacks. 😉

[@mr.e6748]

And it has more AR than GUGS on high level quality infusion

[@jcgjfnijwndxehdc5055]

1:47 GGA is definitely my favorite even if it isn’t the best numbers wise because it fits perfectly for an escanor build using fire incants and flame art it gets a pretty good ar

[@That_dude01]

Man this guy takes the time to film these vids ur a real one youwy

[@RLQFK]

Why are like half the greataxes just *things*, like they're not even axes 😭 also the black knight greataxe moveset clears the "4 downward chops in a row" boring moveset we got for EVERY greataxe in the game. Most weapon classes get two, sometimes three movesets, greataxes get one... and it sucks

[@FrenzyRenas]

black knight greataxe?

[@bdhd2142]

@@FrenzyRenasfrom dark souls

[@Sasheto05]

@@FrenzyRenasit’s from the Dark Souls games, it’s the only greataxe in the series with horizontal and upwards light attacks

[@SassenachCJ]

Been waiting for this one

[@shut]

13:17 wow that transition was crazy

[@classicjones1484]

Soul stiff-ler lmao

[@wilbert3842]

Crescent moon axe also looks cool

[@vedishplays]

Axe of godrick is a quality weapon. Not heavy

[@Ytinasniiable]

Putrescent cleaver is a lot of fun to use but it needs more frostbite buildup imho

[@Mishwopp]

One benefit from grat omenkiller cleaver is you can powerstance them pretty easy because they are garanteed drops und powerstanced they really begin to shine + Omenkiller Cosplay. Anyway your videos are awesome.

[@Fabbers]

Idk if it’s a bug but the blinkbolt ash of war (all three versions) procs the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia, Millicent’s Prosthesis, and Thorny Cracked Tear by just connecting with the lightning dash, so if you can consistently i-frame attacks and stay on the offensive it can be pretty effective 🔥

[@JC_vevo]

Hey youwy! Nice vid! love your content! are you going to make more builds? Your PVE builds playlist might be a bit outdated, would love to see newer versions of those builds now that you have gained lots more experience and with the new patches and dlc changes

[@Goku-zu3rk]

Lovely ranking my friend!

[@procow2274]

Hoonters axe best axe 🪓

[@TheMuslimMan1337]

This is a fine note.

[@astronaut9322]

There for, a hoonter must hoont

[@apanst]

If you're lucky, or good at timing, the jumping part of deathknight's skill can add s as well over low attacks. Add it on to the blink frames and it's a crazy amount

[@akahren1996]

Death knight great axe is my favorite weapon in the game atm. It is so satisfying and fun to use, while also being strong as hell.

[@durpanda123]

Great video Youwy but there's no H in 'weird' 16:50 lmao

[@unusualcarrot]

Yo youwy how many times have you beat up that omen under leyndell 💀

[@NabeelTheWeep]

His name is Steven

[@Fluskar]

babe wake up, new youwy tier list

[@ameeryoussef]

You should do a ranking of most fun weapons in the game. Death Knight Longhaft would be up there for sure.

[@MogekoMagica]

I love Expedia, Mint Mobile, Temu, TikTok, and Go Go Muffin ads 🥵 i need to release myself rn

[@Krissyd215]

Another banger Youwy🔥

[@bondrewd5576]

Rusted Anchor my beloved. Powerstance Anchor with Cragblade each for some nasty jump bonks.

[@samfartson881]

Couldn’t pay attention to anything you said about DKLA because watching the footage was too fun lmao

[@xdwiserbread6012]

1:53 does anyone notice how sick that was or was it just me

[@Guanjyn]

You know you've watched too many Youwy vids when you know what every number 1 weapon is going to be in these lists lol.

[@falsebeliever8079]

16:50 So you're saying my Dex Faith main can get some good use from this? Nice!

[@grantgorman5523]

Might not be most popular but longhaft axe is my favorite with flaming strike

[@Просто_Иван]

1:51 the only waves of darkness I could use one handed

[@dudeiii2069]

Axe of godrick also have a weapon hitbox and if you hit with the weapon you actually get less damage than if you hit with the AOE so its very inconvenient having to turn your character to the side when hitting enemies to get max damage.

[@broly_fan7289]

Youwy, you should make a top 10 most fun builds in 1.14

[@ahmed-dl6sp]

how did you make the Rusted anchor on flame?? like it was red -- what incantation was that?

[@superpaiffer4811]

Youwy is just the best...

[@entomak4457]

we need a questline/npc ranking video

[@TortoiseKnightt]

Side note: winged greathorn has been bugged for pvp values for a few months now. Only does 15%, which is still nice but definitely hurts an already meh weapon

[@ddt9292]

My favourite is the crescent moon cause it's really nice looking.

[@Владислав-ы9м5у]

You forgot about the pickaxe. It has the same moveset as axes, and even can be powerstanced with one.

[@williamgeorge3111]

Throwing daggers tier list next.

[@lorenzop8022]

Next video suggestion: best min/max build for bonk with some range options 🎉

[@elbxndido-pr]

Rusted Anchor 🔛🔝‼️🗣️💯🔥

[@gabrielarciniega2836]

is there a video for great swords already? anyone know?

[@MerryBlind]

Mmmh if only there was a way to click this channel and check its list of videos to figure that out… ;)

[@capsade]

executioners greataxe looks like the demon Slayer greataxe from dark souls 3

[@leonlindkvist]

the best part about the greataxes are that some of them are not ven axes

[@purplesmokeofficial6877]

Can you show us the build you use?

[@Avidire]

Putrescant Cleaver my beloved. Even if youre crap. Wish the frost build up got a buff

[@mfspectacular]

if youve got an overleveled character, try using the zamor sword in your offhand with it

[@danielbarnett3672]

Wait, frostbite doesn't scale with INT?!

[@xxANBUxx]

Nope, frostbite scales with nothing but your weapons upgrade level so once a weapon is at +25/10 its cold is maxed out. What scales with int on a cold weapon is the weapons magic damage.

[@TheTraveler980]

Hey girl, that's a great axe you got. 😎

[@theeliteterrarian1888]

so no mention on the greataxe having higher charged attack damage? unless the description is lying, thats the main quality of the weapon.

[@emeraldwolf7920]

That isn't a thing

[@capsade]

sekiro ranking bruh🙏🏻

[@brreakfastYT]

Miyazaki being biased against axes since demon souls

[@deathpig.9847]

Why is Piercing damage so good?

[@HarlanDrake]

Enemies get reduced pierce resistance when they are in an attack animation. If you hit them with a pierce damage attack during it, you hit for a lot more damage. Spear Talisman increases this bonus damage even more.

[@deathpig.9847]

@@HarlanDrake damn sounds good

[@crudnom7090]

Literally why does standard damage exist

[@Eskinor]

When the best greataxe isn't even an axe 😫😫

[@Владислав-ы9м5у]

You forgot about the pickaxe. It's listed as a greathammer, but has all the same moves as an axe, you can even powerstance it with one.

[@xavierzonline]

But... its a greathammer

[@Владислав-ы9м5у]

@@xavierzonline ...which functions EXACTLY like a greataxe.

[@gnperdue]

Let's start a campaign to get FS to let Youwy fix the Gargoyle's Black weapons. Just pair him in with an intern for a day and let him cook. The intern can then practice pushing the patch to production, which is an important life experience for young software types.

[@solarradiance995]

Still waiting for the colossal weapons still the goat tho

[@noone-pg4lr]

4:40 sounds like a horrible designed weapon

[@mhundleyjr]

No axe of Godfrey?

[@salzjung226]

That's a colossal weapon like the golem halberd, the pizza cutter etc., so yet to come later in the series

[@hisholiness4537]

Piercing IS NOT the dmg type most enemies are weak to! Idk where you get your info from, but not that many enemies or bosses are weak to it. At least not any more than other dmg types.

[@peanutbutnovember1237]

Piercing damage gets a unique 30% attack boost when enemies are attacking. Plus most bosses just don’t resist it unless they’re made of stone or similar.

[@Jazod]

they are weaker to it while attacking

[@tonydragon784]

>Axes

[@MadMatikus]

Yeah but Rusted Anchor is the ugliest weapon ever. Literally a rusted anchor

[@michaelfilippino2392]

You missed Axe of Godfrey.

[@BaseSerpentMessmer]

It's a colossal weapon

[@thatlittlemonstrosity]

award for the laziest weapon in the whole history of elden ring has to be bonny butchering knife. Takes an existing model, takes an existing skill and adds nothing new to the lore. The DLC is god tier but these decisions always rub me the wrong way, they have like at least 10 useless/copypaste weapons when they could’ve made 3 good weapons with same effort

[@MrFallenone]

Let me tell you the legend of "Moonrithyll's Knight Sword" Its the same weapon as "Troll Knight's Sword" but this time it comes with a spell re-skinned as an Ash of War.

[@Cam-x4o]

Nah why you do the putrescence cleaver like that it’s really good

[@crossycross6417]

56s and only two views bros fallen off
