Got lucky with finding some really good cursed Jewelry pieces, the Rending Resistance ones especially even thou the 2nd ring i would just use for this fight, as that Terror curse is not desirable, the other two i might keep until i visit the Witch or until i find something better, certainly not buying Jewelry on this character anymore. And about half way in the vid i really wanted to setup the kill for a Mutilating Lunge when he tries to Regenerate, and ended up killing him with a Counter which was a bit anticlimactic, but i was really happy i got the Pelt too, since i do Slashing dmg and can easily ruin it.
Overall dual axes is very powerful, when i started it was noticeable that the hidden ACC and Fumble bonuses of weaponry skills have been sort of reduced in this latest patch, but as soon as i got Concentration in Dualwielding and a bit later the Axe stance it was no longer any issue with the penalties of Dualwielding. Also i was fighting in the rain with Wetness debuff, but Ancient Troll was too so i guess its even.
Another thing to mention is i'm loving the Crits i get to do, it's a lot of dmg and unlike the other weapon types the Axe Crits are not a chance and instead extra Bodypart dmg always, so i will definitely try and fit Kick and Push the Falling from Athletics and then Warcry and Intimidation from Combat Mastery too for their passive Crit, this a bit later since i need to put a few points in Axe and Dualwielding trees first.
