Desirability
The lochaber axe has supercleaving, which is an extremely impressive effect. But even with its dual school nature, training this weapon to a practical training is quite difficult; it swings slower and is even less accurate than a bardiche. It is also unbranded, so isn't the best weapon against single targets.
History
- The lochaber axe was reintroduced in 0.29 as an unrand artefact.
- In 0.4, lochaber axes were renamed into bardiches.
- This weapon was introduced in 0.1.
