A Cryptic Axe is a Two-handed Elite polearm. It is popular for making rune words for act 2 mercenaries, and has the highest average damage of all polearms. It is often chosen over its counterpart, the Colossus Voulge, due to its much lower strength requirement. However, it is more difficult to get four sockets on it for the most popular runewords, Infinity Rune Word and Insight Rune Word, as Larzuk always gives it five from his quest reward.
