V Rising · Axes skill

X Strike

X Strike throws two axes whose hits slow enemies; a hit where their paths intersect incapacitates the enemy briefly.

How it works

The skill throws two axes in an X shape. Each hit deals 86% physical damage and slows the enemy for 1.5 seconds. Hitting an enemy where both axes intersect inflicts a 2-second incapacitate. The source lists a 0.5-second cast time and 8-second cooldown. It identifies Copper and Iron as the first and second skill tiers for each weapon type, but does not state which tier unlocks X Strike.

Read the supporting references

Ten named weapon skills from the supplied V Rising weapon-skills passage, covering their described effects, timing, and general weapon-tier access. Other supplied passages about gear and armor are outside this scope. These records describe source-listed functions, not comparative performance. Guidance explains the referenced mechanics; it is not a tested damage ranking. Check the stated edition and source version before applying a patch-specific detail.
