TENETS OF THE PRICKAXE:

  • THE HEAD IS ALWAYS THE JUICIEST TARGET
  • BLOCK AND DODGE FOR CRITICAL
  • SPOONFUL OF TOXIN MAKES THE HATCHET SINK DOWN
     
  • SWING TO KILL
  • WHEN YOU FEEL THE LETHARGY
    • CONTROL THE MASS WITH H1 PA
    • KILL THE ONE WITH L1 H2 PA
  • WHEN THE AXE THIRSTS
    • L L L L L L L L L L L L L L
    • PA FOR CONTROL
      PERHAPS THE COMBOS OF LETHARGY ARE BETTER, IF YOU CAN CONTROL THE AXE
       
  • STIM BEFORE THE FIGHT - 
     |  KILLS BRING IT BACK SOONER AND STAVE OFF CORRUPTION
  • STIM REGARDLESS BEFORE THE SECOND DEPENDENCY IS LOST
     
  • PRICK THE BEAST AND BRAWN
     |  ACQUIRE MAX STACKS WITH 4 TO THE HEAD - OR 5 IF ANY OR ALL GO TO THE BODY
     |  FOR LOWER BEAST AND BRAWN, 1-3 IS USUALLY ENOUGH DEPENDING ON CONSTITUTION
     |  FOR MONSTERS, DELIVER "MAINTENANCE SHOTS" FREQUENTLY
     
  • REMEMBER THE BAZOOKA IN DIRE STRAITS
     
  • RAMPAGE WHEN TOUGHNESS IS THREATENED
  • RAMPAGE FOR ANY MEANINGFUL NUMBER OF FOES
  • FEED THE RAMPAGE IN HEADS, OR THROUGH WOUNDS OF BEAST AND BLOOD
