Messmer Soldier’s Axe

The Messmer Soldier’s Axe is a plain, battle-worn steel axe from Shadow of the Erdtree. It deals pure physical damage, scales evenly with Strength and Dexterity, and comes with the War Cry skill, which pairs well with its strong charged attacks.

The requirements are low, so it works as an early, no-nonsense axe for most melee characters. Nothing flashy here, just a tool that has seen a lot of fighting.
