Notes
Dropped by Imps using this weapon. Quickstep. This weapon can be infused with Ashes of War. Can be buffed by Magic or Consumables Forked Hatchet can be upgraded by using Smithing Stones Utilizes the light axe moveset, similar to the Hand Axe and Icerind Hatchet. The moveset itself is the same as the normal axe moves, but it comes out considerably faster. The light axe moveset still applies while using as an offhand weapon, which can be used in conjunction with weapons with innate bleed, such as Vulgar Militia Saw, to rapidly inflict bleed buildup while staggering the enemies. While dual wielding two axes, the powerstance L1 attack has the same speed as normal axe instead of light axe. Despite what the in-game stat page shows, this weapon does in fact deal pierce damage on a lot of its attacks. Only regular light attacks (1h and 2h) deal standard damage, every single other attack is thrust (including dual-wield attacks) Sell Value: 100 Base drop rate is 2 (at 100 Discovery).
