    Lvl 29 is when you start getting your skills and ability's for your ( Spec ).

    If you want to go Axe/Hammer spec then I would stay spending spirit in only that category.

    Do not let the other available skills which require swords / Claw / Polearms sidetrack you because those too will be available to train when you hit lvl 29.

    And word of advice : From what I have seen so far , Duel Hammers pump out way more damage then axes , so I dunno why people like axes over duel hammers. ( Top damage ? ).

    Not Sure but I will stick to my duel hammers. They kill things faster :)

    Good Luck to you.

    Dual Hammers and Dual Axes do the same damage per second on a sliding level scale. The hammers simply have a tighter more consistant damage, higher minimum but lower maximum. If you do a dps calculation; [(minimum dmg + maximum dmg)/2 * speed] you'll find that the damage just steadily increases as the weapons level required increases. so for below level 60, the dual axes are all level x7 & the dual hammers are all x9, as such, from lvl x7-8 the dual axe is better, then all the way from x9-[x+1]6 the dual hammers are better. However this ends 60+ because the Twilight Temple Weapons are better then any 1-3 star normal weapons. And in the hammer/axe category, the Twilight Temple weapons are just dual axes. Likewise the only Legendary in the upper levels for hammer/axe weilders is the Calamity Dual Axes. Since you'll be spending alot more of your game career 60+ then you ever did below that, people refer to the build as dual axes.
