Forked Hatchet is an Axe in Elden Ring. The Forked Hatchet scales primarily with Dexterity and Strength and is a good Weapon for causing bloodloss and using the paired skill to reposition for a higher chance at a hit.
Peculiar hatchet wielded by imps.
The gently undulating forked blade is known as an "imp's tongue" and causes blood loss.
