Desirability

Arga is a broad axe, one of the most versatile (if not powerful) one-handers, with the speed brand, the most powerful and consistent brand for natural creatures. Its quick delay and +8 enchant also make it very easy to train up. Suffice to say, Arga is an incredibly powerful artefact weapon that can easily define a run. The willpower boost is just a cherry on top.
