Type Axe Wielder(s) Frederick First game Heroes

Heavy War Axe (Japanese: 戦神の護斧 War god's defense axe) is a weapon skill in the axe category which debuted in Fire Emblem Heroes; it is a personal weapon of the young variation of Frederick. When its user is near an ally, Heavy War Axe boosts its user's attack and defense, grants Bonus Doubler, and prevents the foe's follow-up attacks, and grants the same benefits to nearby support partners or the ally with the highest defense; additionally, when its user initiates combat or is near an enemy, it boosts their stats, guarantees them a follow-up attack, boosts their damage based on their defense, and reduces the damage the foe deals.
