The Lunar Iron War Axe is an Iron War Axe that carries the Silent Moons Enchant, with 8 base damage and a weight of 11. It is one of six Lunar weapons found at Silent Moons Camp, northwest of Whiterun. It can turn up there from level 2, which makes it an early enchanted weapon.
Weapon Enchantment
While the moons are out, the Silent Moons Enchant burns the target for 10, 15 or 20 points. The strength is set by the level at which the weapon is found, and the 20-point version appears from level 6. Disenchant it at an Arcane Enchanter to learn the effect for other weapons.
Any weapon enchantment can be placed on a Lunar Iron War Axe at an arcane enchanter.
Every weapon enchantment is listed under Enchantment Effects.
| Level | Enchantment |
|---|---|
| 1-3 | While the moons are out, burns the target for 10 points |
| 4-5 | While the moons are out, burns the target for 15 points |
| 6+ | While the moons are out, burns the target for 20 points |
