Offensively

Searing Axe is a powerful offensive ability that excels at punishing enemies grouped in front of you. With its burst damage and knockback effect, Searing Axe can quickly turn the tide of a fight in your favor.

In early game farming, Searing Axe can be used to quickly clear out large groups of mobs, allowing you to accelerate your leveling and get ahead of the pack.

To get the most out of Searing Axe in PvP, you need to be deliberate with your positioning. Always be on the lookout for opportunities where multiple enemies are clumped together in a frontal cone to maximize its damage output.

The knockback can also be used to create distance between you and your targets, giving you breathing room to reset or follow up with other abilities.

Always look for opportunities to maximize its damage and knockback potential, and don't be afraid to hold onto it for a few seconds if it means hitting multiple targets or securing a kill. With practice and good positioning, Searing Axe can be a dominant force in any fight.

Utility

While primarily an offensive ability, Searing Axe can also be used defensively in certain situations.

If fighting at the top of a cliff or near a ledge, you can use Searing Axe to knock enemies off and create space.

Duos tip

Searing Axe can sometimes act as a surprisingly valuable peeling tool for your partner — the sudden burst of damage plus the small knockback can make enemies think twice about continuing their pursuit of your ally.
