Would love the Fighting Axe!
Why do you deserve an item ?
Play with a 2H Heavy Bastard and carry a sucky shield for cover against range. I also like carrying an axe for Shielders, but only have 1 slot available. The Fighting Axe allows for this. It's a great secondary weapon (which I end up using just as much as the HBS).
Whats your generation ?
Gen 1. Have never retired. Have never owned a loomed item. Have played on and off for like 2 years. But probably have only played 6 months total. Keep trying out different builds. Finally have got my builds settled.
