Stout Axeman

Last Updated: June 20, 2025

Stout Axeman Overview

This warrior of the Dwarven empire thrives in the heart of danger, wrapping himself in a reflective barrier that turns enemy attacks into his own form of recovery – all while making them feel the sting of their own wrath. Stout Axeman is a Rare champion from the Dwarves faction.

The core idea behind this champion’s kit revolves around applying a 15% Reflect Damage buff to himself and one random ally, then healing for 50% of the damage he takes through his passive – with a chance to extend debuffs on the attacker. While this sounds ‘ok’ in theory, the synergy offers very little utility and would be far more useful as an AOE effect, potentially giving him niche value in early Fire Knight runs to help reduce the boss’s Shield counters. Outside of that, he has a 50% chance to Provoke two random enemies, offering some crowd control.

Overall, Stout Axeman is not worth investing in and is outshined by most champions in his rarity.
