There's a legendary axe in Diablo III called The Burning Axe of Sankis! :D

Congrates. This has been mentioned before. We should probably have a sticked thread for this sort of thing.

Or I shouldn't have omitted my usual search for what I'm going to post about for once. Oh well.

I vote we dedicate this thread to research in the weaponization of burning axes.

How do?

Hypothesis:
  • Acquire elfy axes/training axes (elfy preferred)
  • Set on fire
  • Give to Dwarf wearing gauntlets+thick fire proof gloves. With luck, the Dwarf should be able to set all enemies alight without suffering (too much) burns.


Failing that, modding time.

We could also devote it to DF references in various media, such as that dwarf in WoW who installed a floodgate from the wrong side.

I'm afraid I'm not dwarfy enough to recognize this particular reference.
