Skorn

Skorn

This two-handed axe leans on a sustained bleed effect: each hit has a chance to deal damage over several seconds equal to a multiple of your weapon damage. Since this bleed scales with your weapon damage and the axe also comes with a socket, the damage piles up considerably over time against long-lived targets.

Skorn is class-neutral and works for any Strength-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based class looking for a hard-hitting two-hander that benefits from sustained bleed damage. My tip: play skills that hit frequently to trigger the bleed chance regularly, and use the axe mainly against tougher enemies and bosses, where the damage built up over time really makes a difference.
