Lares' Axe
The Lares' Axe is a legendary one-handed axe associated with the New Camp. Featuring a base damage of 65 and an attack speed modifier of 1.1x, it occupies a dominant position in the high-tier progression meta of the Gothic 1 Remake.
Combat Playstyle
A versatile one-handed melee weapon that allows for fast side-to-side slashes and quick recovery. It is the gold standard for early-to-mid game dueling inside camp arenas and clearing low-tier beasts around the colony.
Stat Scaling & Requirements
This weapon scales primarily with Strength (1.1x weight). Prioritize training Strength under mentors like Diego or Lares to maximize your physical damage output and meet the wielding requirements for top-tier melee weapons.
Combat Synergy & Faction Context
Aligns with the aggressive, high-risk tactics of Lee's Mercenaries and Rogues. Designed for maximum damage output to dominate in turf wars over the Ore Mound, it benefits from high stamina conservation tactics.
Colony Pro-Tip
"Combine this weapon with left-right rhythmic swings rather than standard forward combos to execute faster staggers and stunlock camp arena opponents."
