Greataxe Weapon

Sweep

Pathfinder Core Rulebook (Second Edition), page 285

Category Martial melee; Group Axe

Price 2 gp; Damage 1d12 S; Bulk 2; Hands 2


This large battle axe is too heavy to wield with only one hand. Many greataxes incorporate two blades, and they are often “bearded,” having a hook at the bottom to increase the strength of their chopping power.

Critical Specialization (Axe) Choose one creature adjacent to the initial target and within reach. If its AC is lower than your attack roll result for the critical hit, you deal damage to that creature equal to the result of the weapon damage die you rolled (including extra dice for its potency rune, if any). This amount isn’t doubled, and no bonuses or other additional dice apply to this damage.
