What it does

Reach out with the axe's beard: one hit in a 50 degree cone at the weapon's reach + 0.5 tiles (twinaxe 1.8, axe 1.95): 1.3x, stagger 12, then the foe is dragged 1.5 tiles toward you (M 1.2, L 0.4; it stops 1 tile from you or at a wall; never dragons, riders, mounts, sentries, structures, tied or penned beasts). A wind-up it was in breaks (S and M: back to Recover, as the whip's crack does). A guarding foe (Entity.guardT > 0: a raised shield, a Shield-Wall, a parry guard) has its guard dropped and locked for 1.5 s, and can't parry your next blow. A fresh HitSpec. Recover 0.26 s.

Edge: Long Beard

The drag is 2.0 tiles (+33 %).
