[[File:Dharok's greataxe detail.png|left|100px|An inventory image of Dharoks Greataxe]]
'''Dharok's greataxe''' is a part of [[Dharok the Wretched's equipment|Dharok the Wretched's set]] of [[barrows equipment]] and is used as a melee weapon. It is wielded in two hands and requires 70 [[Attack]] and 70 [[Strength]] to wield. It has the fifth highest slash attack bonus in the game with +103 and the second highest crush attack bonus with +95.

If Dharok's Greataxe is wielded along with all of the other pieces of equipment in Dharok's barrows set, a special effect occurs called the wretched strength. Attacks can deal more damage as the wielder's [[Hitpoints|Lifepoints]] decrease, up to double damage at 10% lifepoints. This weapon is very slow, the same speed as a [[Two-handed sword]], allowing opponents to attack you multiple times before you can attack once. However, if life points are intentionally kept very low, full Dharok's does more damage per second than even a [[chaotic rapier]], making it an effective, yet expensive, training weapon. Despite the fact that it is an axe, it is more similar bonus-wise to a 2-handed sword because it has a high slash bonus, some crush bonus, and a very high strength bonus. Combat styles: accurate - slash - attack xp; aggressive - slash or crush - strength xp; defensive - slash - defence xp

"Dharoking" is a popular method of player killing utilising the full Dharok's set. A player will wear a full Dharok whilst fighting, and as their opponent deals more damage, they become stronger. This is usually used in conjunction with the lunar spell Vengeance to deal additional damage when injured. The maximum hit with the Dharok set effect is believed to be more than 1365. However, this is very dangerous, because if the player dies, which is made quite possible by their low health, their armour will degrade down to 0.

Dharok's greataxe is commonly used in the [[TzHaar city]] to fight the [[TzHaar-Ket]] and [[TzHaar-Xil]], as the full set effect can do large amounts of damage with little effort and the drops received from training can pay for the cost of repairs.

Because of its high slash and strength bonus it is the closest alternative to a godsword, although a one handed weapon such as an abyssal whip or a dragon scimitar is more efficient and less costly if a player cannot obtain the full set.

*Dharok's greataxe can only be traded when undamaged or fully broken.
*If you drop this item it will degrade to "0".

==Trivia==
*In the quest [[While Guthix Sleeps]], at one point the player's combat stats are increased to 255. Theoretically the Dharok set special would be able to hit 2700+ on the [[Tormented Demon]]; however the player's lifepoints will instantly restore to 2550 when damage is taken, so it is not possible for a player to lower their lifepoints enough.
*During the Graphical Update, Dharok's Axe was first held over the shoulder, with both hands, then over the shoulder again, then it got glitched because [[Jagex]] kept on varying it. This has been fixed by Jagex. To do the glitch, players would hold a Dharok's Axe and open their combat interface menu. It would glitch and result in it being held the same as the [[Dragon longsword]] is.
*The graphics of the Greataxe in a player's inventory remained the same after the graphical update, and differs from when it is equipped in terms of looks. After the Champion's Challenge and Hairstyles update, the sprite was changed to match the look of the Greataxe when you wield it. On [[28 July]] [[2009]], the axe received a graphical makeover.
*After the 28 July 2009 Animation Pack updates, the great axe held by [[Dharok the Wretched]] at the Barrows activity remained unchanged.
*Currently the Dharok's Greataxe has no proper walking or running animation. it has a default animation, similar to a player running/walking with it in a free world.
*The axe appears to have a different inventory display for every level of degradation (100, 75, 50, 25, 0). It is the only degrading item to do so, most others only have a "100" and "0" (or "worn-out") display.
*The difference between the Dharok's Greataxe inventory icon and wielded model were resolved on 9 November 2009.
*In the Grand Exchange database the image of the Dharok's greataxe inventory and the model are not up to date.
*[[Balmung]] has a similar appearance and animation to Dharok's greataxe.
*The "broken" version of the greataxe resembles the old appearance of the weapon.
*The Local Thug who takes the place of Lucien after While Guthix Sleeps seems to be wielding the old version of this axe.
*When running with the Greataxe you will hold it in one hand.
*There appears to be a blue, rune-coloured Dharok's Greataxe at 0:25 in the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwfO1NojqqA "Vote YES/NO/I DON'T CARE, RuneScape Free Trade & the Wilderness"] video on the RuneScape official Youtube channel. It appears that the blue axe is wielded by [[Cow1337killr]], who held a similar weapon during a cutscene from [[Animal Magnetism]].
After the player model update that came alongside the God Wars Dungeon update, players appear to be holding the axe by the blade rather then the handle. This has yet to be fixed.
