Bandit Greataxe is a weapon in Dark Souls 2.

A greataxe of bandits of the Forossan outskirts. Very sturdily built for the armament of a bandit.

When Forossa fell to war, its citizens were left landless, and entirely to their own devices. Many were reduced to thievery, while Forossan knights scattered to other lands as sellswords.

Acquired From

• Treasure pickup in The Gutter. Start from the first bonfire, proceed over the first bridge, be wary of the hole, and go over the second bridge. From the end of the second bridge, keep going along the left wall and drop down to the platform below. Cross the bridge, be wary of the exploding hollow. At the end of the bridge, keep going straight along the left side of the platform, and look down when you get to the end, preferably with a torch in hand. Drop down to the platform below. From here you only need to proceed along the only possible path. The axe is on a corpse in an urn near the top of a particularly long ladder.

Hints and Tips:

• Upgraded with regular Titanite
• Uses Lion Greataxe moveset.
• Inferior to both Lion Greataxe and Gyrm Greataxe in case of size and scaling, and Black Dragon Greataxe in case of base damage.
• Ideal for Elemental or Raw infusion paths.
• Bandit Greataxe is also the lightest among them, also a good powerstance candidate. It also has a special variation of the powerstance moveset.
• Raw or Elemental infusion will always deal more damage than Regular STR 50 or under.
