Mechanics

For every "tough" enemy in line of sight, the labrys gains +3 enchantment. For every "nasty" enemy, it gains +9 enchantment. Maximum enchantment is +16.

See the Threat article for how "tough" and "nasty" monsters are determined.

Desirability

A +4 broad axe with holy wrath is already a great weapon for the extended game, and the Consecrated labyrys is a direct upgrade. A +27 holy axe is sure to be effective there.

During the 3-rune portion of the game, it can still be a great weapon. While its brand will rarely be effective, it has a high enchantment, especially against tough monsters.

History

  • The Consecrated labrys was added in 0.30.
