with good reason,I'll add before putting this up for discussion.outside of holy grounds and perhaps a little of sleeping warriors,dark has to be onen of hte most useless elements in the game.its a cool idea that the axe represents darkness and death and the like,but kinda stupid that they made it only dark.

so for obvious reasons,this is like the lost s-rank.the one that seems to not fit in.everybody is so happy with their halarods and sweet deaths all flip-floppin around,and the poor purple axe sits in the corner.dead,forgotten,and lonely.

can anybody testify that they support this s-rank?

Well, I'm sure the insane rarity isn't helping things.

i want it cause its an Axe.
Even though its "useless" to you, Dark looks cool to me. There are ALOT of weps that have dark elements on them. Check your bank. You probably have 1 or 2 in there. Dark element is good because it won't hinder the damage against fire/ice/etc. Sure it wont boost attack, but it isnt taking damage away against the ragan.
The only reason no one has it is because it is so damn hard to find

You mean that Devil May Cry goth looking thing? The looks turn me off way more than the element... Svaltuses are light and drop some nice Ff S-ranks. If it was some awesome looking axe (see Ank Zazga) I'd hunt it down and use it non-stop in Sleeping Warriors S2 once I finally had my hands on it.

I think Ank Dedda looks pretty sweet, but man, having to fight Gaozorans [it does drop in Dulk Fakis S, right?] to get that thing, and then a boss that's very anti-mele, and then we realize that that thing will more than likely not drop at all.

Well, you could do S2 Darbelan hunts (when it's released) http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

While the only time you may get to use Dark as an opposing element are the missions you said, how many other times are you going to be fighting Dark monsters? Most dark monsters are centered around LL and HIVE. I think it looks pretty cool personally but I don't use any of the melee classes so I don't use axes.

Love,

Oh, that's even better I guess, Darbelans are WAY easier to fight against than Gaozorans.

Huh??? Rena doesn't use an Axe...and she's a FF?? (Someone's too obsessed with their claws >.>;;;)

What's wrong with a Fortefighter who doesn't have an Axe? I have a Fighgunner who doesn't use Double Sabers, and a part time Fortetecher who doesn't use Dambarta.

I like Ank dedda, but I do not desire/eagerly want it. This is because I value units and grinded A weapons over the overated S rank weapons out currently (except psycho wand, that s rank is actually good). The other reasons are this :

1. Takes too long to solo. Tbh, I haven't soloed this in a long time with my beast M FF so I'll see how fast I can do it when I don't feel like doing anything else one day. Hive runs are always fun.
2. Ank dedda is a boss box drop. Boss box drops are like winning the lotto. Most people would hunt for items that drop via mobs as its easier to get. The group I hung out with in the past did a ton of fakis S runs and we got **** on every run. You could argue with me on this if and only if many people have the weapons that drop via boss box in which case, most don't.
3. Buffed up mobs and sorcerers are a azz. This is not FT solo friendly either haha. Probably take hours as a FT. I like the sorcerers myself.

Sure, when I'm done getting the rest of the units I want, I'll start hunting this more seriously along with other s rank weapons. For now, its at the bottom of the list of the things to get.

Well Fighgunners can live without Double Sabers, truthfully imo they're weak, but i love em regardless. Fortetechers can live without Dambarta too (although imo Dambarta is broken as HELL) but techers have quite the variety of other techs to use OTHER than Dambarta

Most of the Fortefighters i know are REAL power-hungry and love to see that damage skyrocket, ppl always mentioning how much damage they use with the axe.

Truthfully, i'm not a fan of an axe either, i think they're as slow as my grandma (If not, slower >.>;;) But they do pack a punch o.o I just find it kinda suprising that she hasn't tried usin em, ya know? usually every FF is curious and tries to use it for a bit to see if it's worth it. (cause hell i would)

Pretty sure Rena meant she just doesn't like THIS SPECIFIC axe, the Ank Dedda. I could be wrong, though.

I'm interested in Ank Dedda but I'm not interested in getting unnecessary headaches and stress over the wonderful drop rates that is Boss Boxes combined with the fact that HIVE S isn't one of the fastest missions to item hunt for via boss boxes.

- HIVE S Drop
- Dark Only

That's enough to put me off it. Don't like Ank Zagza either, and Ank Buti is just a futuristic battle axe..

Honestly, the ank dedda is ugly and it's dark only. I run dulk fakis when friends want to. But I dont run it for the dedda. I run it for the blackbull, that's where sexy's at.
