The GREAT MK12 Chain Axe | A Tutorial 

2H Chaxe one day, my friend. One day…

He did it! He really used something other than the Chainsword/Chainaxe! The curse is broken 🙏🏽🤲🏽

The Mk 12 has become my go to weapon on vet and zealot. Both of which I do elite and special murdering. It also works for unzipping bosses.

6:25 another thing to note about these unrevved latching ticks is that they benefit a lot from the mid-latch fury boost, capable of 1shotting crushers without the lengthier latching you get from a rev.

Thunderous works well with Bloodletter, you break the targets armour and the bleed you apply will be affected by the brittleness stacks. Thrust is still the better choice for burst damage, but Bloodletter apply full stacks even if you have to dodge crusher attacks while reving.

wtf how did I not realize thrust would apply to rev special attacks? Thanks for the intel reg

2hand Chain axe would be cool no way they don’t add it. I was playing around with the ignatus crusher and I was remembering some weapons I saw online in warhammer lore. I realized what I want is a cross between the crusher and the mkv combat axe. Something like a double sided war axe. I feel like the crusher has an amazing movement set. But its functionality is to just put things on the ground until someone else can kill it. And I say mix between the mkv because I think armor penetration weapons are really good because teammates can often clear horde just fine but struggle just a tad with swarms of flak and carapace. Also surprisingly I think the crushers attack pattern is faster than the one handed combat axe. Also what makes the combat axe so great is the ability of its attacks (I find the 10% attack speed on zealot is necessary for viability) the special poke stops big boys in their tracks and the push attack fulfills the lack of horde clear regarding the lights and heavy attacks. Which are good for focusing groups of two targets. Not only do I have to take the 10% attack speed for the mkv but I also give up a point else where and in my current build I give up the second ult for chastise the wicked. Which is very useful for what I’m trying to do with my build. All in all I’d like to see a double sided axe with the crushers Light attacks the MKVs heavy and special. And a vanguard sweeping attack for the push attack. And the functionality of the attacks to be most similar to the mk v and be a armored killing machine. One can only dream, and this wet dream of mine also includes head taker and shred

Another great vid. I had one with infested + carapace. The mutants would be nice but decided to just get the blessings and lock those perks in place. This thing shreds!

That sniper shot at the end.

this about covered my expectations. i do like it the more i use it, but overall i prefer the 4 on zealot for it’s versatility and the 12 on vet… for my lasgun builds that struggle with carapace.

Thanks for the info. Defenetly going to roll myself one, seems a potent tool.

Ah the younger brother of our old friend the MK 4. Great video and lots of small things I haven't noticed until you mentioned. Still I will be loyal to my trusty old MK 4 since I personally like it a bit more than the MK 12 but in the end both shred things like crazy! And by crazy I mean CRAZY!!

13:38 man the new revolver is really somthing

As an eviscerator fan I'd love it if you made a guide on the MK XV eviscerator, there's too few guides on it

that sniper is so fired at the end lol

Too hell with that! I want a Power axe.

The Chaxe God hath spoketh

Just made a new sub here! Have you done the new eviscerator yet or the new shovels??

For the Mark IV is Bloodletter IV and Slaughterer IV a good enough combo? I don't have Headtaker but the the slaughterer can be switched out later.

i'd rather took +25% unyielding damage or +2 stamina or +20% block effeciency. Carapace armor is good to oneshot crushers and maulers to the head. But with thrust everyone else dies in one charged headshot. So no point picking it up as it only will result in overkill numbers Maniacs also recieve bonus dmg from certain weapons while running. So you will oneshot them baseline with heavy attack even using cadian chainsword.

my only Problem with the chaxe on Veteran is the Slow Horde clear on Auric Levels , espacially if my teammates also lack It. My MkXII with headtaker/ bloodletter can one shot/ bleed tik every Human sized Enemy with one rev up light attack.

I noticed in my own testing in the Psykhanium that the Mk12's light attacks seems to do very little (if any) flinch/stagger specifically to Dreg Ragers, compared to many other melee weapons. (you can see it at 7:39) Do you think this is intended or a bug?

I started using it because it has an easier time horde clearing i think,mk4 is still the goat though

Bro Im torn between the chain axes

good video!! only one little criticism... I WANT MORE, MORE GUIDES, MORE VIDEOS GIVE ME MORE

Where is Mauly? is he safe? is he alright?

>365 >Unarmored >Thrust >T3 Slaughterer PeRFecT rOlL.

The next chain weapon should be a knife lol

mk4 > mk12 change my mind

No doubt that its good, but i find its moveset quite boring

Please don’t put +mutant on your melee weapons, you’re killing all of them pretty fast already and you DO NOT want to be in melee with ragers
