Ziterenkoy 13 years ago#1 How good is the crescent axe to use, let it be crushing, moon, blessed etc. A couple of days ago i summoned a blue phantom to help me and saw this weapon which i never saw before, and lucky me on the same run the fat minister dropped me one :D. After swingin with the weapon couple of times and checking different moves, i really liked it and kinda want to make a build with it, probaly a melee. So is this a viable weapon to use? All your waifus belong to me. |
SweetPea_89 13 years ago#2 Yes its viable. Obviously its not a Great Axe, I'm not sure I even prefer it to a Guillotine Axe but its possible to win with it. |
Trevor_Rock 13 years ago#3 For a melee build like strength (crushing weapons), you are probably better off with a great axe for the extra base damage. The higher base damage of the great axe comes into play with the strength bonus for 2-handed wielding, the S-level multiplier based on strength, and the 50% boost from Cursed Weapon. Blessed has its damage split between physical and magic, can't be enchanted, and doesn't receive an important bonus from 2-handing, so you'll just want the higher damage great axe. In theory, if you have a mage character, a moon crescent axe might be good. You shouuld be able to 2-hand it with only 11 strength and most mages start out with the Royal class, which already has 12 dex. It will be pretty strong melee in addition to your spells and it won't eat up a ridiculous amount of stat points (only requires 2 into strength). I haven't tried this myself though. |
DuneMan 13 years ago#4 It scores major style points for sure. And I have known people to use a Moon Crescent Axe. Unlike a regular Great Axe build, they chose it for lesser requirements while maintaining that knockback property. E.g. you can set up for a Firestorm, or recast Second Chance. You can also use it for a finishing blow on a weakened enemy due to the hyper armor frames. "I'd rather betray the world than let the world betray me." -Cao Cao |
Mud_Chan 13 years ago#5 Truthfully I use one of these at +10 as a backup weapon for my battlemage. It is excellent for low stat builds (battle mages...I guess) that want that hyper armor rolling R1. {o,o} We're owl exterminators! |
