Oh, sorry :oops: , I really didn't know it could already be used as an axe... Yes I've used B12 already.
Okay, then I suggest it just cuts trees faster as that would be irl. Except for the fact that it looks pretty heavy and therefor slow to swing at a tree.

EDIT: now I remember my brother said that :roll:
Hope you have a great day

Yeah b12's are awsome, and in combat that doesn't pertain movement, I feel the higher IP cost is to balance the armor penetration, and you can always VS to as mentioned (same IP as using a sword to do it, but more damage, and armor pen). I agree with everyone saying they are already have a surprising amount of utility, because they do, you even left out that you can use them to mine!
You may have foiled the plans of BAD-EVIL this time, but there is no rest for the wicked.

Didn't know this one.... How fast does it compare to a stone axe, though? (Not in a position to test it myself or I would.)

Same as a stone axe

Scythe are the sharpest but the most fragile. The battleaxe is essentially the most force and most durable.

What separates them is the ease of use, so making B12 more 'easier' to use is a bit strange.

Then again, using a scythe to carve meat and skin is also strange.

I'd say the B12 chop down logs and trees twice as fast works.

I'd say again you are NOT going to chop trees with a war axe. It's just a different tool, y'know.

Normally, no, you wouldn't. Wrong type of blade, but hey, it's a game and it's an "axe".

does that mean you agree we need wood axes or hatchets(that chop faster)? strange that most of the combat in this game is steel age(soldier sword, battle axe, and plate armor) while something so basic such as chopping down a tree is stuck in the stone age.

So chopping down a tree in 15 seconds isn't fast enough for you?

I think I get cranky about removing stumps(and I always take a stump when I chop a tree it seems rude not to) and they take far longer.
