Here is everything you need to know about felling axes.
How to Create Your Felling Axe
The process of making a felling axe starts with obtaining the basic materials. You need a regular axe of your desired tier, a felling axe handle, and a hammer.
Stand near an anvil and use the felling axe handle on your regular axe to create the felling axe. This transformation grants 5 Smithing experience points.
Available Tiers and Requirements
The felling axe comes in many tiers, each with specific requirements.
The rune felling axe needs 40 Attack to equip and 41 Woodcutting to use.
The dragon felling axe requires 60 Attack and 61 Woodcutting levels.
Crystal felling axes demand additional materials and must be created near a singing bowl.
Performance and Benefits
Felling axes maintain the same chopping speed as their standard counterparts.
When used with forester's rations, they provide 10% additional Woodcutting experience and a 20% chance to skip obtaining logs.
This effect applies to all trees, including sulliusceps. Without rations, the felling axe functions identically to a regular axe, offering flexibility in usage.
Combat Capabilities
These tools serve as effective combat weapons, featuring higher attack bonuses compared to standard axes.
The dragon felling axe stands out with its impressive +85 strength bonus and +21 slash bonus, making it versatile for both woodcutting and combat scenarios.
Trading and Conversion
All felling axes except the crystal variant can be traded between players. The conversion process from a regular axe to a felling axe cannot be reversed, so consider your decision carefully.
The investment typically pays off through increased experience gains and improved efficiency in woodcutting activities.
