Line 1: Line 1:
Axes are a recurring family of weapons in the [[Dragon Quest (series)| Dragon Quest]] series. Though typically depicted in official artwork as the weapon of choices for [[warrior]]s and other melee-oriented characters, their actual presence in the series has been relatively scarce until the release of [[Dragon Quest VIII]].
#REDIRECT [[Axe Weapon Family]]
 
Unlike [[sword]]s and [[spear]]s, axes have been featureless weapons with no additional benefits complimenting their strength since the original game, with the sole exception of the [[Demon axe]]. As with several other armament types, this would change with the development of [[Dragon Quest IX]], which features many hatchets with additional effects.

Axes are one of the the three weapon types that [[Yangus]] specializes in, serving as a middle ground between the brute force of the [[Hammer]]s and the group targeting [[Scythes]]. Axes are recommended for players that prefer to inflict status ailments while simultaneously dealing damage, and for those that prefer to gamble on all-or-nothing attacks through the [[Hatchet Man]] and [[Hatchet Man| Executioner]] skills.
