All 17 Axes Ranked! Elden Ring Tier List Patch 1.14

[@meowmere3240]

Something really important you forgot for the Messmer Axe: It actually has way stronger charged heavies than all other axes (higher motion values)! That alone makes it a viable alternative to the Warped Axe.

[@youwy]

Yeah I missed that. It does make it more useful than a B tier. Edit: I just tested it out and compared to an 60 strength warped axe it only does roughly ~2% more damage. It makes it better but being that Axe heavies do poor stance I don’t value it that much.

[@dvlsg9709]

The scaling for Cold infused is interesting too, for higher levels. Str/Dex/Int are all basically equal to each other, so if you have enough levels to scale all 3, the damage gets very high.

[@nosleep-d5k]

It doesn't really compensate for the rather large AR loss.

[@niall_sanderson]

And annoyingly the heavy attacks from roar skills don’t get that bonus damage. If they did, it’d give another niche to that axe

[@KenchiofTaichi]

[@gabrielebasa4292]

Wait, rosus Axe is actually genuinely good?!

[@kasturagaming6725]

Yeah, the rosus axe is actually broken lmao, absolutely chunks radagon and beast

[@lukatosic09]

Yeah, highest range, good damage, skill does good damage, stance damage and stunlocks. Also as Youwy said it goes through even if you get stunned (and even if you die)

[@benro6564]

Unlike the spell it's actually alright

[@arbiter771]

It's usually good as a combo tool. You CAN use it as just a solo axe but it gets a little boring. Goes great with Shields with the Guard Counter doing good Poise Damage enabling a fat Skill Usage or two. Also requires some INT into it so it can work as an Int build Slapstick.

[@ShirakiAkarin]

The celebrant weapons should get a % gain of runes based on how many runes an enemy drops, that way they would get some use against bosses at least.

[@EvanFarshadow]

Or give runes equal to the damage you deal

Day 3 of asking for thrusting shield tierlist

[@ac1dnet]

he’s doing every weapon type in the order they are sorted in our inventory you don’t really have to ask for it he was always gonna do it eventually

[@iananderson475]

Fairly certain this is a joke as there are only two thrusting shields and the cerian thrusting shields is one of the best weapons in the game.

[@milkweedbalm]

It’s a shame the dlc didn’t give us many new, unique axes

[@dudunikolaishvili8096]

It's weird how bad the axe and hammer powerstance is in this game considering how good the paired axes and hammers were in DS3

[@dudeiii2069]

I’d rather they just copy and paste the winged knight axe moveset and the drang hammer moveset into this game than continue with whatever abomination of a moveset they created. Not only were the moveset good they also were insanely cool (especially the drang paired hammers).

[@thebehiii5087]

the real ones remember the og icebind hatchet

[@mohammedriadh4990]

Still don't understand why they add so much axes and flail instead of scythes and spears

[@gilgameshfate321]

same, we have so few scythes 😩

[@carminatives3348]

Yeah ok man

[@vedishplays]

Each weapons excels at a type of moveset. For axes and greataxes its should be used with uncharged heavy and it works very well.

[@shadpeel7326]

OK something's not right here the Smith script axe I'm getting around 650 AR magic infusion with 80 intelligence but he's getting less?

[@lukatosic09]

@@shadpeel7326 were you in the dlc when you were looking at those numbers? We're you both 1 or 2 handing?

[@CapDayne_Levi]

Seeing Rosus Axe at #2 makes me smile! ❤️

[@MrFallenone]

No the Messmer Soldier Axe is not just niche. Its the best axe for charge attack builds. It has higher MV on Charged heavy attacks just like Alabaster Lords sword.

[@youwy]

It only does about 2-3% more damage than a warped axe and that weapon is way better with light and skills which is more important with axes as you'll get higher DPS. Charged heavy builds are only useful if you have good stance damage which the axes unfortunately get straight sword stance. It does make the weapon better obviously and I did forget to mention it but it doesn't change the ranking much

[@josephhobbs4680]

16:49 the dragon communion seal scales with arcane so couldn't you get good elemental damage with electrify armament or blood-flame blade?

[@kagevfxontiktok]

Iron cleaver and warped axe are two of my favourite weapons in the game, happy to see people finally realising how fun they are

[@shinobiofashina2168]

The only things axes need is to get rid of that atrocious powerstanced moveset for the ds3 twin axes

[@Владислав-ы9м5у]

Hold on. The blood grease is easy to make. Bloodroses are bought from the merchant in Moghwyn palace, while root resin can be bought with a bell-bearing from DLC.

[@banesmanus]

Greataxe weapons are so fun,(even though irrelevant) they are my favorite class in DS3

[@SassenachCJ]

Storm hawk axe saved me a few times whipping it out quick, when getting beat up by imps. It's a great alternative if you don't have stormcaller equipped on another weapon

[@katanamaru1]

Warped axe r1's look really good on the Milady. Cutting quickly back and forth with the front and back edge is really nice looking.

[@tmb379]

Miyazaki must have hurt himself while cutting wood or something. He just hates axes for no reason 😭

[@Yobolight]

Hand Axe is, arguably, the best off-hand weapon in game (that you actually attack with) though. Great frame-data relative to damage.

[@damianoaimino1714]

Is for pve not pvp.

[@Yobolight]

@@damianoaimino1714 it’s good in pve too

[@terminally_phill3536]

Do ppl use it as an offhand weapon bc it’s fast and light or is there another reason too?

[@Yobolight]

@@terminally_phill3536 it’s almost as fast as a dagger in the off-hand but with much more posture/poise damage and attack damage. You can squeeze it into a lot of windows.

[@jh9794]

Side point about ice icerind, it's a dex weapon. No int needed to swing it, not sure how the skill works but if you want access to frost and an axe it's a decent option. Plus it swings pretty fast

[@Sunny-di3ef]

Battle axe is the best weapon for rl1 wl0 runs without stat boosting, cause you can put lightning infusion on it, and it can do decent damage to status immune bosses

[@inquisitivemind8061]

Why is it better for hits to be done same time rather than one after the other? (Stance breaking?)

[@aryxis7631]

when powerstancing, each axe does let's say X damage per hit. If the axes each hit individually, then the powerstance combo does X damage per hit. If both axes hit at the same time, then the powerstanced combo does 2X damage per hit.

[@damianoaimino1714]

Because there is less chance of missing with one weapon and the animations are longer because you have to wait for 2 attacks instead of 1 attack that hit with both weapons

[@RanDoomPuff]

Simultaneous hits are just way faster and dont lock you into slow animations

[@CrucibleBro]

Mesmer soldier axe also gets higher motion values with charged attacks - makes it sometimes better than warped axe.

[@zealotlee]

Death Knights twin axes at 7? Really? That blinkbolt AoW is ridiculously good.

[@TrueAterLupus]

10:37 Hammers can in fact get flaming strike. The other two are valid to the point you are making there still though.

[@varsa507]

Warped r1s are faster but the recovery frames might make it slower than others. More testing needed

[@drakusmero104]

Been doing a stormhawk powerstance run. Not the worst time ive had since they stunlock smaller enemies pretty well

It's very unique due to that incredible str scaling as well. It's one of the few infusable weapons that performs really well on hybrid builds (str/fth or str/int) due to retaining a great str bonus.
