Title: Is the Leviathan Axe stronger than the blades of chaos?
The Leviathan Axe and the Blades of Chaos are two of Kratos’ most iconic and powerful weapons in the God of War series. Players have often wondered which of these two mighty weapons fares better in a battle royal. In this article, we’ll dive into a detailed comparison to determine who, or rather what, ultimately reigns supreme.
Direct Answer
The straightforward answer is no, the Blades of Chaos are not stronger than the Leviathan Axe. During Kratos’ time in the icy north, it was evident that the Levathan Axe struggled to excel in close-quarters combat whereas the Blades of Chaos wielded their cutting prowess mercilessly. Additionally, key characters in the game mention and highlight the Axes’ remarkable abilities, like its imposing charge strength (3-pound behemoth) that can even crush the Frost Giants to pieces.
Why Isn’t the Axe Strong Enough?
We can derive several reasons that contribute to the Axe not being potent enough:
- Weight: The Leiathan Axe measures 13.5 feet (over 4.1 feet longer than a standard wooden axe) weighing approximately 9.25 pounds(a significant change from being a 10-pound piece of wood previously). Unsurprisingly, this adds considerable momentum behind each thrown axe, a testament to its raw force.
A larger, but lighter axis (around 5lb) would require less wind-up and effort to create a more considerable impact if you were targeting smaller crevices but the game does not.
