Battleaxe
The battleaxe is a Two-Handed weapon added by Spartan Weaponry, with stronger variants included by Spartan Fire. It has an above average DPS among two-handed weapons. It also has Versatile, meaning it will mine blocks in the same way as an axe of identical material. Being two-handed, the player cannot hold an item in the off hand lest they suffer from mining fatigue III and a 25% damage penalty (unless they are a titan, in which case the debuffs are nullified).
Due to its decent DPS, the battleaxe functions well as a primary weapon when area damage is unnecessary. The versatile trait can also be highly beneficial when hotbar space is at a premium. However, the battleaxe will lose more durability than a regular axe: 1 additional point per individual block, and a minor amount more per tree. A dedicated axe is recommended for large-scale woodcutting unless enchantments are used to mitigate the extra durability loss.
Crafting
All battleaxes require a Handle underneath a stick, with 5 pieces of the desired material in the shape of a helmet surrounding the stick. Spartan Fire weapons require a Witherbone Pole instead of a basic Pole, with the exception of steel.
