acidic artist, what's youre saying doesn't make much sence. Every good player has copied things, you can't figure out everything yourself, and you know it.
And if you don't like people copying things, why did you join this forum?

While this is overpowered, it is also obviously a bug. Weapons are not intended to be like this.
I'm really interested to see what the GW team is going to do about this. Bans, removing the item from the game, deleting it from everyones inventories and the game, fixing it in everyones inventories and the game, I don't know...but I really hope maybe Gaile comes and talks to us about what is going to happen about this.

Whatever they do, it won't make it any better.

l Selling God l
This axe is amazing for the Solo monk....but i knwo alot of people are getting it...buying 2 PERFECT enchantment mods and putting it on just to sell it o.O. Hello your putting ...i dont know how much they worth exactly but a hell of a lot of gold into the mods... and you sell it when the 2 mods prob cost more than you selling it for....i figure the only reason to put the money into this axe is if you will be using a 55 monk build...

you silly internet kiddies and your crazy antics. flame ? why are you talking about fire ?

In any event (and many people have said this), I think they'll either leave the item in the game or make it so that the enchants don't stack (and you'd best believe there will be some very upset people who ended up dropping 70k+ per enchant mod)

They can't make this item useless, all those people spending alot of time getting the mods would be screwed very, an that's not how it should be.

so, you don't think it would be fair to fix a bug because of all the speculators who are trying to exploit it?

Hope A-net changes the item from the quest to something differnt,Because I have about 8 of these bad boys.4 are going to be 20%/20% other four going to be +55 hp.
Woohoo.
Woohoo.

If everyone can get it, it will never imbalance anything, and this is one of those items, everyone can get it, so why delete it if it doesn't imbalance anything? I think the same about the HoD Sword/Axe and the Rockmolder, they weren't imbalanced, though, they will be impossible to get, regardless of how rich you are, that makes the game imbalanced, making it impossible to get something only when you were there at the right time.

of course, if I'm wrong then there's going to be a new breed of millionaires wandering around Tyria, and I'll be out of the loop

I only farmed for 3 of them myself(the axes) using my pvp slot.
working on getting a 2nd 20%
but no one is selling since theres more than enough buyers.
this will deffinatly help with the Dou UW and Solo'n other things.

Got 4 now, think that'll be enough. Anyone tried to put in 2 +30 Health mods, since I'm curious it'll stack too.
pbspectre
got 3...more tonight if it's still around...lol

I had a 20% enchant grip in storage and had just made two new chars.. ( getting two of these axes..) ONe Id already made into a 52 hp axe and sold my Hod sword... my lil lvl 13 monk just got a 38% enchant axe to match his hp axe.. life is good..
( FYI it does work...)
Im debating on making another char using my pvp slot and making another enchanter axe. but 20% enchant grips are crazy expensive now.. I was askin in LA and one guy claimed to have a c/o of 100k with a b/o of 100k +9 ecto..
for a 20% enchant grip.....

Has someone done hard testing to absolutely verify this? I see in the early posts people saying it works, but has anyone done time tests to verify?
Also, this axe is really easy for anyone to get it's not like someone can't get one in 30 minutes with little hassle. I started this game late enough to miss out on what the HoD sword was all about. I'm not missing out this time that's for sure.

my hp axe is 52 and my enchant axe is 38% with the hp axe adding a 27 hp grip to it and it kept the hp mod that was on it prior to me applying the hp grip..
the enchant was done with TWO grips one 20% one 18% both where applied directly after eachother...
I have heard once you stick two grips on adding a third grip will destroy the two you applied.. ..so be sure its what you want..

right now on the axes the first grip replaces the charslaying grip the second grip replaces the +25 fortitude grip but if you try replacing a grip a when both grips are of the same type you end up replacing both grips with just one grip.
if you tried applying 2 30 HP grips right off the 2nd grip will get rid of the 25 Hp grip and the 1st 30 HP grip you applied. (turning a +55hp axe into a normal +30 axe)
Depending on how the grips are applied on the axe it might be POSIBLE to get a +60 HP Axe.
(My guess would be something like this apply a junk mod on the axe to get rid of the charslaying mod, apply a different type of Junk Mod to the axe to get rid of the 25 Hp Fortitude mod then try applying the two mods depending on which grip the 4th or 5th grip replaces it might be possible)
Maxiemonster
It might be possible, but if anyone tries this, don't try it with +30HP mods, that would be a waste if it fails 
Don't feel like trying atm, I don't feel like losing money
@eom, why incorrect?

well, let me use an exaggerated illustration ---- what if, instead of this weapon, the reward was a sword that did 400-1000 damage and made you immune to all hexes and conditions?
do you think that still wouldn't be unbalancing?
everybody would have access to it.

This is what happened to me when I tried putting a armor+5 grip to that axe which already is armor +9 (arm+4 & armor+5): it becomes armor+5 !!! so you can only apply two grips with one time for each! If you do it again, one grip mod will be replaced, and the other one will disappear for good. So be very careful what you put on, as you can only do it one time for each grip.

Omg 20% In LA dis 1 = 150k.........
Maxiemonster
150K..? Holy shit!
Anyway.. OrangeArrow is right, it should be possible through that way. So cool, this item is better then both the HoD Sword AND the HoD Axe, unless you actually use them to fight.

I just made a 38% enchant axe, and test it out with my monk. Yes, it works on healing breeze and soj. Also, you can use axe for cyclone axe to boost adrenline, definitely better than sword.
schutz
20% going for 100k + now lol
unienaule
Yeah... good thing 1) I dont have any characters that want a 40% axe, and 2) I just happened to have a 20% enchanting grip on me. Good thing it didn't sell in my auction... Btw, mine just sold in LA d1 for 100k + 5 ecto.
Racthoh
I'll stick with my 10% recharge and 20% enchanting axe thank you very much.
