-A wood axe is considered a heavy weapon and requires two hands to use at all. Its high damage, ability to break down doors and trees, and durability make it seem a desirable weapon. This is offset, however, by the high [[Moodles#Exhausted|exhaustion]] rate of the weapon and its incredibly slow swinging speed.
+*Wood axes can also be found inside of barricaded buildings and carpenter's houses.
