Axearang vs Slime Spear
The verdict
With crit factored in, Axearang puts out 62.4 DPS against 23.4 for Slime Spear — about 167% more damage per second. Base hits are Axearang 20 vs Slime Spear 9, so the gap comes as much from attack speed and crit as from raw damage.
Axearang swings faster at a 20-tick use time versus 24, so it lands on-hit debuffs like ichor, procs set bonuses, and reapplies knockback more often — an edge the flat DPS figure understates.
For crowd control, Slime Spear hits with more knockback (6.5 vs 5), keeping enemies at range while you reposition.
Both are Melee weapons, so the same armor set and class accessories buff either one — you can swap between them without rebuilding your loadout.
