Maybe this question has been asked before but what I would like to know is why da heck chaos axes don't do chaos DAMAGE?? Would they be too powerful? And if so can't they make it rarer drop?

If Chaos Axe did chaos damage, then nobody would use Illusionary Weaponry since Chaos dmg ignores armor...

Yes, broken as hell, impossible to remove/stop, and too powerful...

lol. The chaos axe. I hate them. They make you a HUGE target, its almost like a neon sign that says "HIT ME PLEASE".

Wait, it IS neon!

(Same goes for fiery dragon sword)

And no, they don't do chaos damage, because they would be doing a average 17ish damage a hit ignoring armor.

Thats a good thing, as a warrior you WANT to get tanked, so your monks, mesmers and necros dont. Warriors dont dish out all amazing masses of dmg in comparison to what spell catsers can (ohhh you sneaky ele spikers) but a tank can take one hell of a fierce beating.

I agree, you generally have a +15 advantage in armor over the spell casters, so you can take a bigger beating. I'm rollin' with a Wingblade, so it doesn't stand out as much (I'm not using it for that reason; only using it b/c I'm sick of seeing all of the fiery dragon swords).
