The Axe

The Axe is an Axe/Hammer. Its appearance closely resembles that of a Gibson "Flying V" guitar. It produces an electric guitar sound when swung. The Axe is dropped rarely by Plantera.

Its best Modifier is Legendary.

Tips

 * Because of its high base damage, formidable knockback, and autoswing ability, it is often regarded as a weapon rather than a tool, despite being the strongest Axe and Hammer in the game.

Trivia

 * Its name and sprite refer to electric guitars being nicknamed "axes" in rock music culture. The Axe being dropped by Plantera is part of the reference to American rock band Pantera, which Redigit's girlfriend has stated is her favorite band.
 * With 175% Axe power and 100% hammer power, it is both the most powerful axe as well as the most powerful hammer in the game. The 200% Rock stat is just implying that it's an electric guitar.
