Thrall Axe | Dark Souls 3 Wiki

Imagine pcks, but with str scaling, quickstep, and ultra riposte.

Submit

Okay, I have to gush over this weapon a bit. On my mage playthrough, I was struggling with the demon princes. I decided to try a new weapon and figured, 'hey this has quickstep and does decent damage'. I gave it a shot, and immediately DESTROYED the princes with almost all my Estus remaining. That is how I came to realize how bonkers this weapon can really be. Here are a few notes:
- It has the highest damage of any weapon with quickstep BY FAR. Its honestly not hard at all to reach an AR just shy of 500 with this thing when fully upgraded.
- It doesn't swing as fast as daggers but does swing much faster than any other axe (combined with the next point, this weapon gets pretty crazy).
- It has the highest poise damage of any weapon with quickstep BY FAR (its literally more like an axe in this way than the daggers) This thing is SO AMAZING at breaking guards and getting reposts on bosses.
- It has that same sweet spot for roll catching panic rolls just like the mace, so you can almost always land three r1s

I honestly cannot believe how criminally underrated this thing is

Submit

The lightest weapon that can do an ultra tier riposte.

Virgin Murky Hand Scythe vs. Chad Thrall Axe

I use it on my pyromancer. It stuns everyone and makes them reluctant to close in so I harass them with fireballs. Then they get mad and come in, and I smack them around with the axe. Great for a pyromamcer as it's small and rugged, but it looks really stupid in the hands of a noble sorcerer.

Submit

Imagine a weapon that does Greatsword poise damage.
now imagine it with quickstep.
Behold, the Thrall Axe, of which my pyromancer carries three.

Submit

tbh its good crazy good scaIing for quaIity buiIds

Submit

if you have over 70% weight can you still use the quickstep?

Submit

Don't underestimate tgis axe when it comes to criticals. With hornet ring, this thing really hurts.

Submit

Can someone update this page for the rarity of these things? Been farming for an hour with no luck.

Submit

closest thing to a tomahawk

Submit

chubby side stepping towards you with this axe.

This is probably going to sound strange, but if you happen to have a Faith or Int build this can be a very nice lightweight backup weapon if infused, and it really doesn't matter if your secondary stat is Str or Dex despite being an axe. For example, compare Str/ Dex/ Faith at 40/15/60 at 483 AR versus 15/40/60 at 479. Marginal difference even though it's an axe. And 2-handed its 489 either way. Not a bad backup weapon at a weight of only 1.5. I try to identify decent lightweight backups for when my main weapon is something heavy like an ultra greatsword.

Submit

A nasty weapon for str/pyro builds. Iron Flesh + a quickstepping chaos infused thrall axe is an obnoxious combo indeed.

Submit

If you're spamming quickstep, your chance to hit with this is a bit lower than with a dagger, but the damage will make fights shorter, and they're a lot less parry-able

Submit

Why does the Dark scaling appear to be so much better than the Chaos scaling? Most weapons they seem to be the same or very similar.

Submit

Basically you get abit slower than Dagger speed but in a Axe package with Standard damage. If Patchnotes actually reflected Harpes pierce I'd be using it instead, charged attacks still function properly though.

Submit

Updated the correct values for Dark variant. Dex scaling is now C instead of D, Int & Faith are changed from B to A.

Submit

For pyro, but slower than murky hanscythe

Submit

Would have loved to been able to powerstance 2 thrall axes.....

Submit

Super underrated

Submit

how can this hit harder than a FUGS with 66str? and no. opponent was full hp so no tear stone/morion buff.

Submit

At 27.07.2017 the scaling is wrong, spesifically for chaos +8 (and perhaps others, but I'm only looking at chaos)


At chaos +8 it say D/D/B/B, but it's actually C/D/A/A

Submit

this is the saw clever but no saw

Submit

thrall axe is the base weapon for ds3 gankers who spam sacred flame glitch i hate it but i loce the weapon its great for avoiding bosses attacks with its weapon art

Submit

is there any advantage to using the murky hand scythe over this if i want a dark infused offhand?

Submit

Nasty little bugger...

Submit

It now scales A/A with chaos and dark infusions

Submit

B

Now over 3hr of farming... I got 4 Thrall HOODS!!!... but no thrall axes...
I farmed a while ago with an another char for the hood and got 4 Thrall axe but no Thrall hoods..

I think this game know what you want and won't get it to you..

Submit

This axe, carthus flame arc plus no armour and Flyns ring make a filthy filthy combination. Go refined and put those useless VIT lvls into strength and dex. Dragon torso stone gives you a kind of parry...

Submit

One of my favorite weapons. Shortest range humanly possible, but pretty good dmg and is pretty light. Also with one of my favorite skills in the game

Submit

It might be noteworthy that the Thrall-axe actually gets different scalings for chaos & dark, even tho the letter at the end is the same. On chaos-infusion the Thrall-axe reaches the C/D/B/B scaling at +6 while the dark version has only C/D/C/C at +6. Have not tested +10 yet, aint have enough chunks on that run (yet).

Submit

good damage for a toothpick, quickstep is a nice skill and just an allround solid weapon!

Submit

Possibly on of the most realistic in size out of all the axes.

Submit

For those who enjoy Bloodborne a good bit, this is a great weapon for sticking to the archetype. Hell, stick refined with this and a halberd for that extra reach when you need it, then I'd say you're set. As for clothing, obviously Leonhard's mask is almost a must. And the fallen knight chest for that flowing coat look.

Submit

I just love this little Badass! Currently using it as heavy infused on my Str. Char paired with a Black Knight Shield ( for one handed Quickstep) and its not only ***** effective its also very fun to play.

Submit

Anyone know the AR at 40str 40dex refined, and 40str 40dex 40luck hollow?

Submit

This is a great weapon. A bit short but with quickstep and decent damage it's like a dagger that's good for more than critical attacks

Submit

This weapon also adds 4 luck to the Luck Stat whilst equipped.

Submit

Its range is absolutely terrible...but its still an axe with quick step which is quite good. Anything that can hit harder than a wet noodle and has quick step just automatically has good value.I quite like the look of it too.

Submit

I use a +10 hallow thrall axe with my +10 hallow eastern iron shield (skill). So much fun, My primary weapon is Anri's SS, but this weapon allows for a quick and instant change in play style that can make a difference in pvp. I use Farron's ring with it as well and you can quickstep a good bit. I have still yet to ever get a back stab off in PVP with it though. My build is 50 vit, 39 end, 40 luck depraved. I forget the exact dmg I get with this weapon but it is close to 310.

Submit

i have it at +8, refined and it's quite good for PvE and co-op PvP it kinda sucks because of poor reach though...

Submit

This weapon is great for a sl1 run as it does good damage, can be one handed and let's you quickstep

Submit

This thing has quickly become my favorite PvE weapon. I say PvE because I haven't gotten the opportunity to smack a player with it since I started upgrading it. It's quick, does some solid damage for such a small weapon and the dagger-style dodge is golden. I'm looking for more weapons that have a dodge like this because as far as I'm concerned it's the best weapon skill in the game.

Submit

This thing is amazing. I was toying around with different weapons looking for neat synergies for my dex/luck build and came across this thing. It's incredible, hits like a truck, weighs nothing, fast, and gives quickstep. Very unique set of strengths allows some interesting choices if you build around it. I'm thinking of starting a new character just to focus on this thing.

Submit

this things great as a light, fast side weapon. Ive been wanting to use that quickstep skill, but i dont like knives so i was surprised to see an axe with it

Submit

PLEASE do not add your scaling to the tables, add only the base damage. When the game shows something like xxx + xxx in the equip menu, only the first numbers are the base damage, the second set of numbers (after the +) are the bonus scaling your character gets from his stats.

Where does this lovely come from?
