The Emerald Splitter can be located at Emerald Stair. This Unique Greataxe can be acquired from a chest at the top of a massive tower beside an overgrown tree. You can start by using Paragrun Waystation as a landmark, then enter the main building where you can climb up on the rocks and do some platforming to reach the chest.

Here are the stats of the Emerald Splitter Greataxe:

• Physical Damage: 336
• Stun: 286
• Stamina Cost: 22
• Critical Hit Chance: 6%

You can do more damage on primordial with the weapon's passive ability. Primordial Slaying grants you a +20% damage boost, and the base enchantment, Withering Strike, can be upgraded as well. One of the upgrades that can be used is Poison the Roots, which can inflict poison and stun damage after a full combo. You can also deal high poison accumulation to nearby combos after performing power attacks by using the Rotting Cloud upgrade.

The Limb-Taker can be acquired during a bounty quest called A Cure for Rage at the Galawain Tusk's region. You have to take on Grakohr, an ogre with a nasty swing and nastier appearance, as he keeps a girl captive. After defeating the ogre, approach his remains, and you will be rewarded with the Limb-Taker Unique Greataxe.

Here are the stats of the Limb-Taker Unique Greataxe:

• Physical Damage: 336
• Stun: 286
• Stamina Cost: 22
• Critical Hit Chance: 6%

The Limb-Taker and Emerald Splitter have near-identical stats. However, the kicker here is the enchantments and upgrades. This axe has the Bleeding Lash passive ability that can increase your bleed damage up to 10%.

You can upgrade the Severing Blow enchantment to either Executioner's Strike, which can deal with high bleed accumulation after power attacks, or gain 50% attack speed for 8 seconds with the Blood-Soaked Blade upgrade.

The Seven Strivings is a Unique Greataxe that can be looted at Ralga's Den at Dawnshore. While you can blitz through without fighting the enemy boss inside, attempting to do so kills two birds with one stone, as you will get a Unique weapon and be taking out a bounty.

Once you defeat the boss and all of their smaller minions, make your way inside the cave. Once inside, you can see the axe right there ripe for the taking.
