Giant Axe

The is a Rare Throwing Weapon found in the game.
== Usage ==
This weapon attacks in a long ranged swing when the player rapidly taps the attack button. This does not disable the bare hands melee function.
When charged, it launches a penetrating axe projectile which bypasses all obstacles. Charging also increases the projectile size, critical hit chance and damage (starting at 6, up to 10).
== Tips ==
=== Strategies ===
 works wonders as a semi-auto sword due to the wide swing arc, providing good defense by quickly deleting storms of bullets, all while doing respectable damage.
Its ranged abilities are not to be underestimated either. While the strange hitbox can reduce accuracy, the penetration can allow it to hit multiple times for massive damage, further augmented by its high base crit. This can be compounded by the use of projectile size increasing buffs, such as Weapon Boost and Assassin's Invisibility skill.
=== Recommended Buffs ===
* Reflect Buff - The melee attack can reflect bullets.
* Melee Range Buff - Increases the melee range.
* Pierce Buff - Causes critical damage to remain static after dealing a critical hit.
* Avoid the Bounce Buff as it prevents this weapon from piercing through obstacles.
* Charge Buff doesn't affect this weapon despite it having a charge animation.

== Trivia ==
* This weapon was added in Update 2.5.0.
* Despite the name, resembles a halberd.
* When first added, does 6 damage per swing and a maximum of 12 damage for the ranged attack. It also cannot penetrate enemies and would lodge on whatever entity it struck first, which led to an issue where the axe can't be used if the blade would hit a wall as soon as it is thrown, due to its gigantic sprite.
* It is the only throwing weapon that doesn't cost energy.
