Seax

The Seax is a melee weapon added in the v0.15.0 "Pulling the Pin" update on January 14, 2024.

Background

The Seax is a large single-edged blade with a tang in the centerline of the blade, inserted into an organic hilt either made of wood or horn. Its typical use is for hunting and fighting. The Germanic peoples of the Migration Period and the Early Middle Ages, especially the Saxons used the Seax. The name comes from an Old English word for "knife".

Strategies

Using

• The Seax has a longer cooldown but has higher damage.
• Make sure to time your shots well, as missing one can be fatal.
• Think of the Seax as a buffed Baseball Bat.

Countering

• As with all melee weapons, the best way to avoid them entirely is to keep your distance and use a gun designed for mid or long-range combat to kill them.
• Use a high-DPS weapon like the Flues to shoot down the Seax user approaching you if you can't escape.

Obtaining

The Seax can only be obtained from the Viking Chest, which always spawns once per game and is located along the shore in the map.

Trivia

• The Seax was designed by cobby and 1092384.
