The Battle Axe is a melee weapon for the Annihilator. It is a basic double-edged battle axe.
It deals 20% more damage at the cost of reducing the user's movement speed by 15% while its deployed.
This can kill most classes in two or three strikes, making this a deadly weapon if the hits can connect properly. This paired with a Ragin' Bull charge can perform instant kills if timed correctly.

Tips
- Try pairing this weapon with the Ragin' Bull and land charging critical hits so that you instantly kill every class except the Brute or an overhealed Trooper, in which only one more hit is required.
- This weapon has a walk speed penalty which only activates when the weapon is held. To negate this, only pull out this weapon when needed, and equip your primary or secondary weapon to walk around for normal scenarios.
- This weapon can kill 200 health enemies with only three hits instead of four. Use this as an advantage to kill Troopers and Annihilators using the Squire Boots faster.
