Ideal character progression on p99 is working your way up from a rusty 2h axe, to a tarnished 2h axe, to a dwarven 2h axe.
Then you get real with the magic of a double-bladed bone axe which took some killing but also you fucking hate druids anyway so no big deal, work your way to a silvery 2h axe as goblin slaying is bulk fun. Off you go to Rathe Mtns and spend a long time to get your Axe of the Slayers (MVP of early EQ) and you proc up a storm pretty much invulnerable to melee, then you're primed for an executioner's axe. Froooaaaaak.
Hit the planes, get your Ashenbone Axe. Really rocking some dps now, then kunark comes out and you switch up to an easy to get Axe of Lost Souls. Get yourself keyed and some dragons gonna be despatched. You get that Ykeshan Broad Axe. You're the MVP of kunark 2h aggro generation.
Next minute kunark drops, you quickly off your boy dain for a Frostreaver. Step up in the world. You're whacking and slashing, everything is a tree and all you got is an axe. Then whammo, a KT axe drops and you have a good non aggro alternative! You die less and become a true bro warrior who can do it all.
You vpick up a 2h primal axe as it was 1dkp, realise it is ugly and destroy it. You don't have bagspace for that shit. Then in time, big daddy V finally gives it up. Palladius is yours.
You equip it, and realise you now are the axe god of norrath. Chop chop.
