Axe Of Deimos is a two-handed Warrior axe named after a small moon that circles a red planet far beyond the valleys of Embervale. On each kill, its Renewal enhancement restores the axe's durability, so it keeps fighting through long clears without repairs. Its cuts are doubled up with two cutting enhancements and chilled by one of ice, while crit damage makes its critical strikes land hard. It rewards a Warrior who clears whole camps in one go and rarely visits a forge. Strength adds power, and crit chance from rings gives its crit damage room to work. Its partner in name, the Axe Of Phobos, leans on ice damage over cuts. Like the moon it is named for, it orbits within reach only late on, as loot from Ancient stores of the Cinder's Cradle.

Damage By Level

Base damage grows with item level and with rarity. Two-handed weapons deal one and a half times as much as one-handed ones. The table shows the base damage before perks and gems. Each perk adds its own bonus on top.

Level	Common	Uncommon	Rare	Epic	Legendary
1	15	16	19	24	26
10	35	39	44	56	62
20	58	64	72	92	102
30	80	88	100	128	141
40	103	113	128	164	181
50	125	138	157	200	220

Enhancements by Level

Each upgrade at the Blacksmith raises a copy by one level and unlocks the next enhancement. The levels count from the copy's own level, so a level 9 copy unlocks them at levels 10 to 14. This weapon takes up to five upgrades. Every upgrade of one copy costs the same number of Runes. On a legendary copy, the fourth and fifth upgrades also take Legendary Runes. The costs are for a level 50 copy. Other copies cost more or less by level, as the second table shows.

Upgrade	Unlocks At	Enhancement	Effect	Runes	Legendary Runes	NPC
1	Level +1	Cutting Damage	Adds Cutting Damage equal to 10% of base damage	850	-	Blacksmith
2	Level +2	Renewal	+1 Health Regeneration	850	-	Blacksmith
3	Level +3	Ice Damage	Adds Ice Damage equal to 10% of base damage	850	-	Blacksmith
4	Level +4	Critical Strike Damage	+24% Critical Strike Damage	850	106	Blacksmith
5	Level +5	Cutting Damage	Adds Cutting Damage equal to 10% of base damage	850	106	Blacksmith
Total	-	-	-	4,250	212	Blacksmith

The rune cost depends only on the copy's level. This table shows the price of one upgrade and of every upgrade the copy can take, level by level.

Level	Upgrades	Runes per Upgrade	Total Runes	Total Legendary Runes
1	5	46	230	12
10	5	130	650	32
20	5	256	1,280	64

Lore

The axe is named after a small moon that circles a red planet. That moon drifts tirelessly through the void, somewhere far from the valleys of Embervale. Its partner in name is the Axe Of Phobos, named after the other moon of the same planet. The text of that axe speaks of a rift torn in the air with each swing. Through it lies the black expanse far above, where perhaps loneliness or fear reigns in the sea of stars.

Notes

Renewal restores the axe's durability each time it lands a kill.
Crit damage makes its critical strikes hit hard.
