How to Craft
Crafted at a level 4 Black Forge from:
- 1x Nord Axe: Hardened from Cast: Nord Axe and Liquid Frost in a Frost Foundry.
- 20x Bloodgold: Smelted from Petrified Tissue in a Blast Furnace.
- 1x Frostfire Essence: Dropped by Fallen Warriors, which you call up at a Memorial Site with three Memorial Coal.

When to Use It
End game. You need Fader dead before you can progress through the Deep North.
Upgrades
You can upgrade it twice at the Black Forge. Each step needs the station one level higher than the last, and costs the per-level amount and then twice that. Quality 4, at four times the per-level amount, needs a level 7 Black Forge, above its current maximum of 6, so that row is out of reach.

Properties
It has a three-hit combo, and the last hit does double damage. The secondary attack is a slow overhead chop that also reaches tree stumps too low for a normal swing.
It blocks with 66 armour and parries at 2x.
You move 5% slower while it is in your hands.
At quality 1 it deals 144 slash, 12 fire and 88 frost, 244 in total. That is 103% more than Jotun Bane, which deals 120 at quality 1 and is the hardest-hitting weapon of its kind before the Deep North. Each upgrade adds 10 slash, 3 fire and 3 frost, so at quality 3 it reaches 164 slash, 18 fire and 94 frost, 276 in total.
A primary attack costs 16 stamina and the secondary costs 28. Its hits knock back with a force of 60.
It weighs 2 and has 400 durability, or 500 at quality 3.
It blocks with 66 armour, or 132 on a well-timed parry at 2x. Blocking a melee attack knocks the attacker back with a block force of up to 20.
Here is how its damage lands on Deep North creatures. Slash does full damage to Elakings, the Eyeless One, Deep North Greydwarves and their Shamans, Skeletons, Hexen, Krigen, Captive Fulings, Imprisoned Dvergr and Kall Fimbulbringer, and reduced damage to Barka, Fallen Warriors, Gammeltrolls, Shapeless and Tiny Pulps and Moose. Fire does extra damage to Deep North Greydwarves and their Shamans, Barka, Elakings, Skeletons, Hexen and Moose, and full damage to the Eyeless One, Krigen, Captive Fulings and Imprisoned Dvergr. It does reduced damage to Fallen Warriors, Shapeless and Tiny Pulps and Kall Fimbulbringer, and none at all to Gammeltrolls. Frost does extra damage to Shapeless and Tiny Pulps, and full damage to Fallen Warriors, Deep North Greydwarves and their Shamans, Captive Fulings and Imprisoned Dvergr. It does reduced damage to Barka, Elakings, the Eyeless One, Gammeltrolls, Skeletons, Moose, Kall Fimbulbringer, Hexen and Krigen.
Quality 4 needs a level 7 Black Forge, above its current maximum of 6, so in practice it stops at quality 3.
Crafting it from scratch and taking it to quality 3 costs 70 Bloodgold, 10 Timberwood and 4 Frostfire Essence, plus a mould and 5 Liquid Frost.
Notes
- The essence drops from the Fallen Warriors that three Memorial Coal call up at a Memorial Site.
