Axe AttacksAttacks are skills that directly use your equipped weapon to damage enemies. Spells are not Attacks.

The base damage, attack speed and critical hit chance of an attack are determined using your weapon's stats unless a skill says otherwise.

Attacks do not necessarily deal Physical damage — they can deal any damage type. commonly involve throwing your axe and/or inflicting Bleeding.Bleeding is an Ailment that deals Physical damage over time, and lasts 5 seconds by default. Damage from Bleeding bypasses Energy Shield

Bleeding deals an extra 100% damage while the target is moving, or if the Bleeding is Aggravated.

Physical damage from Hits Contributes to Bleeding Magnitude.

Damage does not Contribute to Bleeding chance, so it cannot be inflicted without an explicit source of Bleeding chance.

The base Magnitude of Bleeding is Physical damage per second equal to 15% of the Pre-mitigation Physical damage of the Hit that inflicted it. This magnitude is not further affected by any modifiers to the damage you deal.

Modifiers and Debuffs that affect the enemy's ability to mitigate damage (such as Shock) can affect the damage the enemy takes from Bleeding, but any such modifiers that specifically apply to Hit damage (such as Armour Break) do not affect Bleeding damage.

Axe is an item class of martial melee weapons that require strength and dexterity to equip. They come in one hand and two hand varieties.
