Notes

• The duration of the Bane effect is 2 turns, and does not stack.
• Many situations will increase the self-damage dealt by the axe:
  • The  Savage Attacker feat results in the secondary damage being re-rolled higher.
  • A critical hit with the axe results in double self-damage.
  • Some damage riders like  Lightning Charges, Callous Glow Ring and  Psionic Overload increase the self-damage.
• Effects which reduces incoming piercing damage reduces the self-inflicted damage.
  • However, this self-damage is classified as magical and so effects like Heavy Armour Master does not help, but Magical Plate does.

Bugs

• The Scourge Mistress' Bane always inflicts  Bane on hit.
• If an enemy is knocked out by a non-lethal attack with the axe, the wielder is also knocked out, even at full HP.
