The Nord Hero Battle Axe is an improved Ancient Nord Battle Axe found in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
Physical appearance[]
It is visually similar to the Ancient Nord Battle Axe, but is more polished in appearance. It also has higher base damage, lower weight, and is of greater value.
Smithing[]
Like all other Nord Hero Weapons, the Nord Hero Battle Axe can only be crafted at the Skyforge after completing the Companions questline. It requires the following components:
- 1 x Ancient Nord Battle Axe
- 3 x Steel Ingots
- 3 x Leather Strips
It can be upgraded with a Steel Ingot at a grindstone and also benefits from the Steel Smithing perk, which doubles the improvement.
Trivia[]
- Its base damage is on par with the Honed Ancient Nord Battle Axe and the Skyforge Steel Battleaxe, though it weighs less.
