The two axes (official, Feb 25)
- Fyrestorm Greataxe: swings around you in a brutal arc, gaining speed and strength and changing direction as you move; it stops after a set amount of damage, and standing still reduces its damage.
- Zangrom-Thaz: swings constantly, whether you move or not; charging into hordes makes it faster, “leaving scores of charred and decapitated Skaven in its fiery wake”.

The Oct 21 Squad post uses Gotrek’s axe as the example of a weapon only its owner can wield. Any other champion who evolves the Greataxe gets Gotrek as a follower — followers deal damage but can’t be hurt or collect items.
