11 The Twin Axes are one of the three weapons available to the Berserker in Chrono Odyssey. They are the fast, single-target option: quick combos, a deep bench of survivability passives, and the weapon most closely tied to the Berserker's Frenzied state. A Berserker equips two of the class's three weapons at a time, so taking Twin Axes means leaving either the Chain Blades or the Battle Axe behind.

33 Twin Axes were playable during the first Closed Beta Test from June 20-22, 2025. Everything labelled June 2025 on this page was recorded in that build and comes from a single community record of it. Chrono Studio has since stated that all classes will be re-evaluated for combat balance alongside the Matrix System, so the names, percentages and resource costs below are a point-in-time snapshot rather than launch behaviour.

55 Role and Playstyle
66  
77 Twin Axes lean single-target rather than area, and their identity comes from the passive bench rather than the four active skills. Movement speed bonuses, health recovery on hit, attack and critical bonuses that switch on as health drops, and a skill that flatly prevents death for ten seconds all sit on the same weapon. That makes them a strong solo pick and an equally strong off-hand for a player whose main weapon is fragile.
88  
99 The pattern the passives describe is deliberate: the Twin Axes get better the closer the Berserker is to dying. Attack rises below 50% health, critical rate rises below 30%, and health recovery on hit switches on below 40%. Playing them safely wastes half the weapon.

1111 The Frenzied State
1212  
1313 The Berserker has a state that raises damage and movement speed while continuously draining health. Our articles call it the Frenzied state; the recorded skill tables call the same state Berserk. They are one mechanic under two names, not two systems.
1414  
1515 Three Twin Axes passives exist only to feed it. Chain Rage generates Rage throughout, Relentless Hunter turns basic attacks into gap-closing dashes, and Reciprocation raises the health drain to 2% in exchange for a larger damage and movement bonus. The weapon's biggest single hit, Relentless Swing, also scales up while the state is running.

1717 Recorded Skills (June 2025)
1818  
1919 Each skill is a base active followed by two enhancement tiers, numbered I, II and III. Each entry carries the rank notation used in the recorded build sheet, such as 3/3 or 1/3. The sheet does not explain the notation; it reads as points invested against a skill's maximum ranks.

2525 Weapon Swapping
2626  
2727 Drawing a weapon fires a passive tied to that weapon. For the Twin Axes that passive is Colossus: switching to them generates 40 Rage and recovers 30 Stamina. That is the single best argument for carrying them as an off-hand, because a Berserker who is out of Rage can refill a chunk of it simply by drawing the axes. See Dual Weapon Switching for the full cross-class list of draw passives.
2828  
2929 In the June 2025 build the swap itself carried no cooldown of its own, though in practice it often resolved only once an in-progress skill animation had finished. A short cooldown to prevent an accidental double swap is a stated change for the reworked build, and as of 2026-09-11 no key binding for the swap has been published.

3131 Mastery and the Matrix
3232  
3333 Twin Axes carry their own Weapon Mastery track, raised by using the weapon and independent of character level. The Matrix System announced after the closed beta adds four progression paths per weapon on top of that, twelve across the Berserker's three weapons. The Matrix was not present in the June 2025 build.
