Dharok's greataxe

Dharok's greataxe is a part of Dharok the Wretched's set of barrows equipment and is used as a melee weapon. It is wielded in two hands and requires 70 Attack and 70 Strength to wield.

If Dharok's Greataxe is wielded along with all of the other pieces of equipment in Dharok's barrows set, a special effect occurs called "Dharok's Might". Attacks can deal more damage as the wielder's life points decrease, up to double damage at 10% life points. This weapon has the attack speed of a Two-handed sword. If life points are intentionally kept very low, full Dharok's does more damage per second than even Chaotic weaponry (albeit at lower accuracy), making it an effective, yet expensive, training weapon. Despite the fact that it is an axe, it is similar bonus-wise to a 2-handed sword because of its very high damage output per hit and slashing impact. It is therefore highly useful in disposing monsters weak to slash attacks, such as fire giants and even abyssal demons.
 * Dharok's greataxe can only be traded when undamaged or fully broken.

Trivia

 * Dharok's greataxe has received two graphical updates in total. During the first update, the greataxe varied between being held over the shoulder and being held with both hands when equipped.
 * The greataxe appears to have a different inventory display for every level of degradation (100, 75, 50, 25, 0). It is the only degrading item to do so, most others only have a "100" and "0" (or "worn-out") display.
 * The Local Thug who takes the place of Lucien after While Guthix Sleeps seems to be wielding the old version of this axe.
 * There appears to be a blue, rune-coloured Dharok's Greataxe at 0:25 in the "Vote YES/NO/I DON'T CARE, RuneScape Free Trade & the Wilderness" video on the RuneScape official Youtube channel. It appears that the blue axe is wielded by Cow1337killr, who held a similar weapon during a cutscene from Animal Magnetism.
