While there are many, many pieces of equipment in the game, the Battle-tested items are some of the best when it comes to preparing the characters for…well…battle, of course! There are two ways to get them.  The player can either purchase (or steal) Battle-tested equipment from certain NPCs — in which case, only once per item — or challenge (or provoke) a specific NPC, if their character is strong enough, for a slim chance (seriously, only two percent) to get a piece. (The latter can be repeated over and over without limit.)

“Your name is Olberic, and you are a warrior. You were once a brave knight, until you lost king and kingdom in a bloody coup. Today, you serve as a master-of-arms for a small mountain village. “To what end do I swing my blade?” The question tortured you night after restless night. Then, one day, you hear a name from your past, giving you new purpose…”

This is what the player reads when selecting Olberic as a character in the game.

If the player completes Chapter 4 as Olberic, they can purchase the Battle-tested Axe from Ned, a fighter working for Cecily, in Victors Hollow, which is located in the Woodlands. Or, the player can challenge or provoke the Tavern Patron hanging out in Atlasdam, a town in the Flatlands.

The Battle-tested Axe gives the character who equips it +350 Physical Attack and +250 Elemental Attack. It also increases the lightning damage and ice damage dealt by the character.
