Two-Handed Sword
Your melee attacks throw a piercing axe at a nearby enemy, dealing 550–650% weapon damage as Physical.
The axe this weapon throws travels through enemies in a straight line until it disappears. By holding the button that makes your hero stand still (usually Shift) you can use the flying axe as a ranged attack by left-clicking on an enemy if they are within 20 yards. This ranged attack does not work on breakable objects like barrels. The flying axe will be triggered if you use a melee skill that also has a ranged component like Lashing Tail Kick-Spinning Flame Kick (Hurl a column of fire that burns through enemies, causing 677% weapon damage as Fire to each enemy it strikes).
The minimum level this item can drop at is 31. Below you will find the range of stats found on the level 31 version, however the item can drop at any level above 31. The legendary effect does not change with level.

Stalgard was a bloodthirsty warlord whose forces briefly controlled the trade routes of the southern plains. He was famed for engaging in duels with the best swordsman of any caravan who dared pass through his territory, offering to let it proceed unmolested if its champion triumphed. Of course, he was equally famed for cheating if he began to lose said duels.
