Tyrant’s Bane

A Forsworn-style fire war axe taken from the hagraven Crowstooth at Arcwind Point.

Tyrant’s Bane is a war axe added by the Alternative Armors – Dragon Plate Creation. It looks like a Forsworn Axe but hits much harder and burns its targets.

How to get it

The hagraven Crowstooth carries it. Kill her at Arcwind Point during Bones for a Crow and take the axe.

Enchantment

Burns the target for 30 points of fire damage, and targets on fire take extra damage.

Stats and handling

12 base damage at a weight of 15. It uses the One-handed skill.

Smithing

It cannot be tempered, so its damage stays fixed.

Strengths and weaknesses

  • Strength: a working 30-point fire enchantment.
  • Strength: can be disenchanted.
  • Weakness: cannot be improved, so tempered weapons overtake it.

Tips

  • Use it in the mid-game, then disenchant it if you don’t know a fire enchantment yet.
  • Its partner from the same quest is Namira’s Itch.
